using that logic, one shouldn't forbid anything.. So not a real logical way to react I believe....

isn't this just THE reason to forbid any civilians to carry a gun?

Thanks for the summarized info! Sounds as if Airtec doesn't take this as serious as it sounds..

For those who don't read Skydiving, can you tell what the problem with the Cypres is? Thanks.

we owned a cat named Smeagul.... says enough? .... died a terrible death, he did...

All I want for X-mas: peace all over the world, food and shelter for everyone.. and a gun. Whatever rocks you boat.

:8:2 three jumps on saturday with one particular NICE 2way RW-jump Five jumps on sunday learning how to drop SL-students.. it's harder than it looks Jumped five different chutes on sunday: one Stiletto150 (which gave me two very unfriendly line-twists... ), a Sabre230, 210, 170 and my own 150), found it useful to jump that many different chutes. Firsts: dropped a real-life second jump SL-student and my first twists on a spinetto..

Do a search, there's more than plenty to be found about these three canopies. Strange question to ask for someone with over 600 jumps. Or is there something more specific you're interested in?

not getting my coffee is something my colleagues don't ever want to experience again

Let's see.. immortality was my first choice, but after thinking it over, I'd say that being immortal has its drawbacks.. so... I'd like to be immortal for only 100 years orso. My second choice would be that getting-beer-from-the-fridge-without-getting-up-thing..

Nada. Just getting the nectar in a different form. You mean to say there's something to IMPROVE on beer???? ... never tried cider yet ...

Sounds like you've got yourself one helluva plan! .... and it MIGHT even work!

Apple cider? What's wrong with beer?

The good side of being color-blind

Welcome back.. I suggest you do a search in de forums.

*WOW* I can watch those puppys all day and still don't get bored... If only my boss wasn't breathing down my neck, I'd actually have something meaningful to do during work-hours..

Congrats! Now get some content!

Happy birthday then! Don't forget to drink a few beers today! Cheers! whoops.. didn't notice this was in G&R, next time better post this in TalkBack.

WHAT?! Women DON'T like bald men? You mean I've been lied to? Who cares anyway.. Pegasus: get the rig!

Hey Jarno, Sounds NOICE! Whether to take it on or not... hard to say.. could also depend on your personal situation (mortgage to pay, expensive addictions, etc..).. What movie are they asking you to take part in? (or is that highly classified information? ) Good luck making your decision!
