I like to point out two things. First, you're a long way from the ground. You have plenty of time on an AFF jump to do what you need to do. Second, think about the pilot of a multi-million dollar jet fighter. What does he do when several million dollars worth of electronics, hydraulics, and mechanics go south? He ejects and rides back to earth under a parachute. Technology be damned, parachutes are pretty reliable. That should give you a little comfort. You don't have to outrun the bear.

Santorum and Romney both seem to think that their education makes them a man of the people while education leads Democrats to the ivory tower. Come to think of it, most politicians feel this way. My grilled cheese sandwich is a quick and tasty meal filled with vitamins and protein, while your grilled cheese sandwich is filled with fat and cholesterol. You don't have to outrun the bear.

Future? Let's see. The evil rulers make people fight for the population's amusement.... So Rome-2000-years-ago. I imagine the sequel will involve the fighters rising up in rebellion. They'll call it "Spartacus". Thread hijack over; now to the original point. You can spend time in the woods on days when weather's too bad to jump - no conflict. You don't have to outrun the bear.

Ferdinand Porsche dead at age 76. His 911 is still going strong. You don't have to outrun the bear.

You don't say how many jumps that canopy has on it, but you'll want to check the line trim in addition to doing what Aggiedave said. You can get the line trim specs from PD. You don't have to outrun the bear.

The implication is that he would make deals with Russia that American voters wouldn't like. I'm pretty sure this comment will come up again before the general election. You don't have to outrun the bear.

Spike Lee wants someone to go to Zimmerman's house and get justice. He won't do it himself. He wants someone else to take the risk. Spike Lee is no better than a white man. You don't have to outrun the bear.

Same ergonomics is a great point. Having to learn a different safety, different magazine release, etc. is not only confusing, it can be dangerous. You don't have to outrun the bear.

Given the fact that Skydive Az had to pay a boatload of money and got almost nothing in return, I'd say this result will discourage additional legal action against Skyride. This looks like it's shaping up to be another typical victory in the American court system: Lawyers - 1 Citizens - 0. You don't have to outrun the bear.

We just did cut back by one war, but we're open to suggestions to fill the gap. You don't have to outrun the bear.

Your failure to plan is not my emergency. You don't have to outrun the bear.

You might be speechless, but apparently German law speaks to the subject. You can check if this reference is valid: Citizen's arrests can be made under §127 StPO (code of penal procedures) if the arrestee is caught in flagrante delicto and either the identity of the person cannot be otherwise established immediately or he/she is suspected to try to flee. The person making the arrest is allowed to hold the arrestee solely for the purpose of turning him over to a proper legal authority such as the police. German law does not establish that the crime has to be serious, nor that the person making the arrest has to actually be a citizen of Germany. I don't know what German law says about using a gun in these circumstances. You don't have to outrun the bear.

Yes; toe taps. You don't have to outrun the bear.

"Seems like they're in a pretty good situation, at a good school, with reasonably good health insurance, and likely a good career in the future. Which is more than most people in the country can say. So I just can't seem to get upset about the Georgetown students having to pay for their own contraception. " Thank you, Shotgun. That brings me to my point. The Democrats blew it. Forget the ravings of a 3-times divorced, overweight drug-addict. Rush does what he gets paid to do. The Democrats, on the other hand, are a bunch of bumbling fools who could fuck up a free lunch. Here's my case: 1) Congressman Issa held hearings on contraception covered by insurance. His panel of experts didn't include any women. 2) The Democrats wanted to counter his point, so they held their own hearings. 3) Dems chose as their spokesperson a single law student at a prestigous university. This is where things fell apart. They would have done better to choose a married mother of two who doesn't want any more children right now. She could talk about the benefit to her and the insurance company of contraception vs. more children. She could have taken a little dig at Rick Santorum by saying, "My husband and I really can't afford to support seven children." There would have been little the opponents of this position could say except to respond with a well-reasoned argument. The reason Democrats don't like guns is because they're afraid they'll shoot themselves in the foot. You don't have to outrun the bear.

"people should not take the law into their own hands" This is the phrase that always gets me. Whose hands does the law belong in if not the hands of the people? You don't have to outrun the bear.

OK, I'll start: Skydive Atlanta (Thomaston, GA) Gold Coast (Lumberton, MS) Spaceland (Rosharon, TX) Now you're on I-10 headed west, not sure what's next. Sounds like it could be a fun trip. You don't have to outrun the bear.

Sorry guys, but I'm so tired of hearing that Obama screwed up the economy, I have to do this. A guy was backing out of his driveway and ran over his dog, which was sleeping in the driveway behind his truck. He immediately threw the dog in the truck and drove to the local vet. The vet took the dog into surgery. About a half hour later, the vet came out and told the man, "I'm sorry, but your dog has died." The man was furious and spent several minutes berating the vet. The vet listened calmly. When the man stopped his abuse of the "incompetent" vet, the vet said quietly, "I'd have had a better chance of saving him if you hadn't run over him before you brought him in." You don't have to outrun the bear.

A canopy with 800 jumps will probably need a re-line if it hasn't already had one. The price should take that into account. (more of a general comment than specific to the stuff you're looking at) You don't have to outrun the bear.

The best way to learn to swoop is to review swooping videos on You-Tube. I'm surprised someone else didn't tell you that. Maybe they aren't taking you seriously since you're from Canada. You don't have to outrun the bear.

DEKALB COUNTY, Alabama -- Giving Alabama teachers a big pay raise could go against the Bible, state Sen. Shadrack McGill (R-Woodville) said recently at a prayer breakfast in north Alabama, according to the Times-Journal of Dekalb County. But McGill supports the 62 percent pay increase the legislature gave itself in 2007 because means lawmakers are now less susceptible to taking bribes, the paper reported. Regarding teacher pay, McGill said: "It's a Biblical principle. If you double a teacher's pay scale, you'll attract people who aren't called to teach. To go in and raise someone's child for eight hours a day, or many people's children for eight hours a day, requires a calling. It better be a calling in your life. I know I wouldn't want to do it, OK?" Sorry guys. There's no real point to this post. I just had to because I know your day has been too rational so far. You don't have to outrun the bear.
