The frosty beverage of choice is gatorade. http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?do=post_view_flat;post=3609927;page=1;sb=post_latest_reply;so=ASC;mh=25; "You can easily judge the character of a man by how he treats those who can do nothing for him." - Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Noobie question: Who are the three smutskateers? iluvtofly? jumpingjunkie09? If so, who's the third? "You can easily judge the character of a man by how he treats those who can do nothing for him." - Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

I should be out at the Farm this weekend. "You can easily judge the character of a man by how he treats those who can do nothing for him." - Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Policing is a 24/7/365 duty does not stop merely because it is the weekend or late at night or holiday, etc. Judges recognize this. Thus, in many jurisdictions, it is not uncommon for a judge to be on-call 24/7 in the event the police need to obtain a search or arrest warrant. "You can easily judge the character of a man by how he treats those who can do nothing for him." - Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

No. If arrested, you do NOT have the right to refuse to give fingerprints. They can be taken by force, if necessary. As for DNA, it depends on the laws of the state. More and more states are passing laws that require DNA samples to be taken from arrestees. Challenges to such laws in court have so far proven fruitless. To know whether they can take DNA from a person who has been arrested, you need to know the laws of that state. Keep in mind, you do need to be arrested for a search warrant to issue. The police need only show the judge that they have probable cause to believe that you have evidence of the commission of a crime in your possession. DUI is a crime. "You can easily judge the character of a man by how he treats those who can do nothing for him." - Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

No. The Fifth Amendment privilege against self-incrimination only applies to testimony and statements by the accused; it doesn't apply to real evidence that may be seized. Courts in the US have long held that warrants may be issued requiring suspects to give handwriting samples, DNA samples, voice samples, etc, real evidence. This really is nothing revolutionary. It is no more intrusive than a warrant allowing police to seize a blood sample for DNA testing.

This is sad to hear that he passed. I didn't know Herb, but I was following the thread about him in the incidents forum. My heart goes out to his family and friends. "You can easily judge the character of a man by how he treats those who can do nothing for him." - Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Why don't you just "get sick" on Sunday morning? "You can easily judge the character of a man by how he treats those who can do nothing for him." - Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

I'll be out there Sunday, but not Saturday. Good luck at the meet. "You can easily judge the character of a man by how he treats those who can do nothing for him." - Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

The Farm is awesome, they even welcome you back when you totally embarass yourself in front of the owner!!! g That is why they invite you back. They want to watch you do it again. "You can easily judge the character of a man by how he treats those who can do nothing for him." - Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Congrat! Now, what is the job? "You can easily judge the character of a man by how he treats those who can do nothing for him." - Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Everytime I have ever been at the farm, the people there have been nothing but friendly and cordial to me. "You can easily judge the character of a man by how he treats those who can do nothing for him." - Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

That's actually a good idea. I'll probably do something like that when I get my A-License. I can see it now: "Why's that pansy giving out Gatorade?" ___________________________ I doubt anyone will consider you a pansy because you don't buy beer. You earned the 'fine', regardless of what you contribute. Water or anything hydrating is appreciated. So are Otter Pops!!!

Go to meet Adam, Kyle, Kathleen, and Anthony. It was nice meeting you all.

Yeah, you probably need a DD more than anybody else. Ahem, um, what I mean was, um, that you deserve a chauffeur before someone else does. Um. Um, yeah, that is what I meant.

I just finished my AFF and a couple of solos at the farm. It is a great DZ, with great people. Hope to see you out there soon. "You can easily judge the character of a man by how he treats those who can do nothing for him." - Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Congrat! Have you done a tandem jump already, or are you going to do AFF without doing a tandem? "You can easily judge the character of a man by how he treats those who can do nothing for him." - Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Gosh, this sounds like a lot of fun. I will probably be at the farm on the 26th, but I don't think I have enough jumps to participate in this. "You can easily judge the character of a man by how he treats those who can do nothing for him." - Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Remember: on a hot day, popsicles or ice cream can go just as far as beer. Also, not a bad idea. Thanks. "You can easily judge the character of a man by how he treats those who can do nothing for him." - Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Spoilsport! Good luck with the raffle. Let me know if I win anything (besides the date w/ Valinda). "You can easily judge the character of a man by how he treats those who can do nothing for him." - Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Sounds like we got a designated driver. Welcome aboard.

I think a "Dinner Date with VSkydiver" should be on the list. Then I'd buy all the tickets. "You can easily judge the character of a man by how he treats those who can do nothing for him." - Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Okay. I made it back for Saturday. Too bad I can't make it Sunday. "You can easily judge the character of a man by how he treats those who can do nothing for him." - Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
