  1. Here's the thing cupcake, people usually have no problem giving to a cause. You ARE NOT a cause. You want something for nothing and have made no attempt to dispute that. Am I wrong? You want a new rig, poor you, you are a poor college student and can't afford it. You aren't going to find much sympathy from the peeps here because the majority of us were in the same boat once, including myself. These were my choices: don't go to college, keep skydiving and keep working at Mickey D's the rest of my life or, temporarily retire from the sport and return when I am financially able. Did I once ever ask anyone to help me pay my way through college or skydiving? No, but that's just me. On the bright side, at least you're able to go to college. Some people aren't that fortunate. One day you too may have a job that allows you to play and have all the toys you want. Wait, you aren't a philosophy major are you? My advise (not that you're asking for it) is to grow up a little and use that pretty little head of yours. How about using your assests? Car wash in a bikini, oh I know, how about packing in a bikini? I bet you'd get lots of tips and have a decent rig in no time! Or you could always sell jello shots like I do. Exempt my fundraising goes towards real causes like cancer research, but again, that's just me. p.s. needing something is a lot different than wanting something.

  2. :6:0 Did an awesome hybrid on Saturday, held a decent sit where I didn't feel squirrelly, and had an awesome 13-14 way tracking dive at sunset yesterday. A nice way to end the weekend. Adrenaline is my crack DPH #3 D.S. #16 FAG #12 Muff Brother #4406

    Pulse

    I demoed a 170 and then later a 150. Openings are nice and soft (especially after jumping a Sabre1). Out of 28 openings, I only had one off heading and it wasn't my pack job. Its nice and zippy, but not too aggressive. Not once did I utter a four letter word while packing these brand spanking new canopies. The ease of packing alone makes me want to get one. I will likely purchase one once I am ready to downsize. Until then I will go with something I can get used.
  4. 1. 45 minutes (although there is another one only 15 minutes away) 2. Nope 3. right now, Lily Allen and Kate Nash 4. Yes 5. Divorced and my child has four legs 6. I have lots of hats. It depends on how I'm feeling. cowboy, newsboy, beanie, baseball, etc. 7. Depends on the environment. At the DZ its jello shots, at home its wine 8. Only if I'm prepared to be hit on by a bunch of young (early 20's) military guys. If not, them I make friends go out with me. 9. Jump #2 was my first cut away 10. Mac at home PC at work. 11. a little bit of both! Adrenaline is my crack DPH #3 D.S. #16 FAG #12 Muff Brother #4406

  8. 2x more efficint tha a Prius
  9. Didn't need it, but tried I've tried them and was disappointed . Those commercials are way overrated! It may have been better if my expectations weren't so high. Adrenaline is my crack DPH #3 D.S. #16 FAG #12 Muff Brother #4406
  10. Something to keep in mind is to be very aware of your hand and finger placement on the risers and the line twists as they move down towards the risers. I actually just watched a video today where the jumper got his finger/hand caught in the risers as they were being twisted. It looked quite painful!

  11. I once left an autopsy I was observing early because I was hungry. I had had been running late and didn't have breakfast that day. Adrenaline is my crack DPH #3 D.S. #16 FAG #12 Muff Brother #4406
  12. I start chugging Odwalla superfood and taking Airborne at the first sign of the sniffles. Adrenaline is my crack DPH #3 D.S. #16 FAG #12 Muff Brother #4406
  13. All activities have risk associated with them. Some more than others, and there are things we can do to help mitigate that risk, and there are things that are simply not within our control. So no matter how many controls you follow, there is always going to be some level of risk. Examples: My BFF used birth control and got pregnant My good jumping friend got rear-ended by a drunk driver going 90 mph within minutes of leaving the DZ I stepped in a gopher hole on landing during a night jump and sprained my ankle and fractured my foot. What's the message here? Shit happens. So shut up and jump or go home! Adrenaline is my crack DPH #3 D.S. #16 FAG #12 Muff Brother #4406
  14. jello shots gone wrong...news at 11 Adrenaline is my crack DPH #3 D.S. #16 FAG #12 Muff Brother #4406
  15. Just put some tussin on it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wd-EBG3a7jU Adrenaline is my crack DPH #3 D.S. #16 FAG #12 Muff Brother #4406
  16. I've given before, usually about for times a year, and always feel fine. I've just never given within a few days of jumping and was wondering if I should be concerned about it or not. I'll just wait until Monday and do it at the hospital.
  17. I've opted to give blood on Monday at a local hospital instead. Although, I have to saw it was a hard decision knowing how much better my jello shots would be. Adrenaline is my crack DPH #3 D.S. #16 FAG #12 Muff Brother #4406
  18. There is going to be a blood drive at my place of work on Thursday. I'd like to donate, but I'm not sure if I should knowing that I will be jumping on Saturday and Sunday. Anyone have any knowledge regarding this? Adrenaline is my crack DPH #3 D.S. #16 FAG #12 Muff Brother #4406
  19. Nope, both you and LisaH still don't have it. 4 Sky Jumping Vaginas aka 4SJV We even did a vagina dance after our last jump yesterday. Adrenaline is my crack DPH #3 D.S. #16 FAG #12 Muff Brother #4406
  20. That's right. More jello shots. I'm not fundraising while I'm there this time (but if you wanna help the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, you can do it here), just bringing them for fun because I'm cool like that . I'll be taking a canopy course on Saturday and I know Granny will be there taking it too. Who else wants to come play with us? Adrenaline is my crack DPH #3 D.S. #16 FAG #12 Muff Brother #4406
  21. Now that's really close. I may have to confer with the team on a possible name change. Although, it isn't correct, I'm liking the sexy!
  22. 4 Silly Jumping Virgins??? Not quite, but you got the J correct. Adrenaline is my crack DPH #3 D.S. #16 FAG #12 Muff Brother #4406
  23. 0:5:0 Practiced sit flying on a couple jumps now that I've got FF friendly rig and did a couple of awesome 4-way chick jumps. We've dubbed ourselves team 4SJV. Bonus points if you can figure out what it means. Adrenaline is my crack DPH #3 D.S. #16 FAG #12 Muff Brother #4406
  24. I dunno. I've yet to try that one myself. Want to be the one to name it? Oh, here's another one, but I wouldn't try it unless you're limber. Yoga technique helps on this one. Starting cowgirl, layback completely, then have you're man grab your legs and pull them on top of him so that your feet are next to his head. At this point your basically laying on top of him back side down. Then arch your back as he holds on to your ankles.
