Not capitalizing the first letter in a sentence that's poking at someone's grammar is funny.

Start saving for your own gear to buy after you get off student status, it'll save hundreds, maybe thousands of $$$. Talk to your instructor about what you need. How many patratrooper jumps do you have? Welcome to the sport.

Whoa......that was intense! That's why I never go online after a night of heavy drinking I'll make the occassional drunk dial, maybe a text if she's lucky enough, but never go online. Alcohol + Internet = Shit you'll regret later

I just moved to DC from SoCal, I don't know what it is; maybe it's the water, but I hardly ever see east coast sport bike riders wearing any protection other than a helmet! Tank tops and helmets, maybe a sweater. She may be hot now with a spaghetti stap shirt and booty shorts riding backseat, but it's only a matter of time In Cali the standard was a leather jacket, regardless of temperature, with armoured shoulders, elbows and most likely a back piece. Gauntlets and boots were very common and most weekend riders wore full leathers. I wear jacket, back pice, helmet, armoured gloves, and boots at a minimum.

Should we stay clear of this guy or what? Don't surgarcoat things, can he be trusted?

I'm glad you got your canopy, bro

That could be a turn on for some...

Your point is ...pointless. An orange, weighing more and traveling faster than a baseball, will do some damage and possibly kill someone. Yeah, it may be a one-in-a-million shot, but that's for you to decide, not me. You may have some problems if you were to ever fail to catch your orange Maybe they'll understand, I know I wouldn't.

I'm surprised noone has mentioned the Dry-Dock: Turn off the water source (often a knob or lever behind the tank), flush the toilet so all remaining water is flushed and the bowl is not replenished, then poop! Don't worry about flushing again, it's pointless.

Expantion of gases at altitude

Is that to help with the mantis position or something? While I'm here, what is the mantis position used for as opposed to the regular belly position? Is it just an "upgrade" to the boxman? http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?do=post_view_flat;post=3646078;page=1;sb=post_latest_reply;so=ASC;mh=25;

I find chasing inanimate objects to be a bit boring. Although not the best candidates; they have a tendency to flail around, but kittens fall at belly speeds.

Waaaaaaiiiit a minute here, most of you don't piss your pants when you jump? Not even a drizzle? I mean, yeah, who does that....not me

FAIL!!!!

Such a nice TV is worthy of the manliest movie of all time... ...BRAVEHEART Nuff' said...

Is he originally from Nigeria? My thoughts aswell. Sounds like a 419....

Finally some sense mixed in with this freak show. I Like your style lol. j/k

Thailand, not Pattaya, Bangkok or someplace that's too toursty and full of whores like many places. Probably somewhere around Chang-Mai or one of the islands. Hmm, maybe New Zealand....this is a tough question. Alaska! Hell, I can't make up my mind

None specific, I did a google/youtube search and found some sites/vids of a few DZs in Thailand. I think one was in Pattaya, looked legit.

I used to live in Chengdu for awhile and my wife lives in Shanghai so I usually find my way there every couple months. If you need any help in Shanghai let me know, I can definately hook you up with some good people to chill with.

My bad, I was going off of your profile. Are you just visiting China, or an Expat? But yeah, dude, I don't think Shanghai has any DZs. If you find one let me know

I'm assuming you're not a jumper...yet I would reccomend traveling to another country, maybe Thailand, to do a tandem or AFF. Flights are cheap from Shanghai and most of the instructors are probably western.

I frequently go to Shanghai and have looked for a DZ with no luck. I've googled a few places but they've all led to dead ends. If you do find a DZ, be sure to use your own gear!

George W. Bush! Ok, jokes over. On a serious note I would have to say George Washington. With only six years experience in the military and even less commanding troops; he did one hell of a job. Not to mention that he had nothing to do with the military for 16 years before the revolutionary war started. Talk about a resume gap, lol. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Washington If it were not for him, we would probably be speaking British right now
