I guess I wanted to remind us all about basic human nature - survival. No matter who ever says, it's right there and you can count on it. I'll go jump tommorow, that'll keep me quiet for awhile Google the word 'Sacrifice', then look around you at those who have sacrificed FOR you...there is a whole lot more to human nature than survival. Instinct survival is the nature of the beast, some people are fortunately way beyond that. Totally agree, just google any Medal of Honor recipient/winner. Survival was not why they did what the did. Then again I would fight to save my own life or sacrifice to save the greater good. If you do things that don't make you appreciate life than why do them

7 of us recently passed the coach course. Pretty sure this shouldn't require beer, but if you want to buy us some we will accept. Grata to my fellow students out at Skydive Suffolk. Grats guys! Adam If you do things that don't make you appreciate life than why do them

Great post. I'm passing it around to friends! If you do things that don't make you appreciate life than why do them

We don't normally have that guy at my Dropzone. There are clicks of people but no one is That Guy. It's prolly me because I screw up everything I try and create. I find myself chasing formations a lot trying to get in! :) If you do things that don't make you appreciate life than why do them

I'd just like to learn life experience from you! I have some uniques I will tell you in 75 years that will marvel average people and explain why I do things. Adam If you do things that don't make you appreciate life than why do them

Since I have given nothing to this thread but Twardo is apparently the man! Here goes. I'm 35 yrs old. I have fought in Iraq and Afghanistan. I have done more things and had more ambitions than a lot of my friends. I started skydiving because the woman I loved left me. I have been around military dz operations for many years. So I started jumping. I made 76 jumps quickly an stopped to be with a new girl. I deployed often and never got back into it. Over the last 4 months I have been broken up after 3 years and I have made 50 jumps in Dubai traveling 5 times in 4 months. Now I have given up on many hobbies. The people that I meet skydiving are great. I love them. There are a few things I hate, pot smokers-I'm career navy and I was a basically a grunt. So whatever I gave up everything I ever knew 2 years ago now to change jobs learn a new skill and basically do different things. Sold the house, moved and came back to the same area. If its your dream and it makes you happy brother, do it. The day you hate going to work is the day you need to research better options. Not married? Use some online dating sites to help get in a few extra flings. PoF is good. Make a profile that is funny, includes funny off the wall statements and pictures where you are the center of attention. Pm me if you want great hints haha. I don't mind being me, I'm a dick/prick, I am fun and after people know me they understand me and we alway have a great time. Follow your dreams man, that's what makes you happy! Adam If you do things that don't make you appreciate life than why do them

Cool brother! I have a few relatives that have some fame too. Only ones that really know are Marines because of Iwo Jima. If you do things that don't make you appreciate life than why do them

I smell some bullshit here - this from the guy that took an airplane up during his college days with his best friend so he could bang his girl while you flew?! Don't lie - your Harley was a shadow and the Vette was a pinto! WANNA BET?! Oh it gets even better than THAT... My roomie at the beach owned a parachute loft...his dad was 'Mr. Bubble' - yeah THAT Mr.Bubble...Gold Seal Corp..snowy bleach...etc. I got my PADI card from his brother, who was the Governor of North Dakota, one Christmas down in Akumal...we'd shore dive from the beach at their 'little' sea side vacation home. I meet this cute lil' redhead aerobatic pilot while performing airshows one year and we hook up long term...did I mention she's also a 767 Captain for a major airline? ...anyway, we end up adopting 3 kids from Russia and dragging them all over the world with us...did I tell ya about the time Harrison Ford gave me my triple diamond wings while I was performing at the world's largest air show? But back to your point...the bullshit 'pinto'. Ya just think years ago when I first started here I read your theme - anyone who doesn't is missing out! I remember something about turbulence and oh ahh! Can you call In a favor to Harrison and have him come to Virginia to tell us to "get off my plane?" Stay golden ponyboy!

Yes, they entered a verbal contract. The publicity generated through "Justin beiber was banded from a wind tunnel... What's a wind tunnel - OMG we need to do this when we goto Vegas next month!!! *young teen girl giggles with her friends* is better than a photo spot!

Well this went south! The part about my fist and his nose was a light hearted joke, not a lie, not bragging but a joke. Then I went with the fun Twardo started and kept it going for a second. I am a representative of the US Government I wouldn't screw up my paycheck for anything. If you guys got hit by a car you would be furious. If I got hurt you would recommend I sue him. Most low income people don't have jobs. I bitched him out, told him to get off his fucking cell phone and picked up my bike and continued to ride for my smokes! Had I not been paying attention when I got hit I would have gone head first towards Va Beach Blvd - major busy road. No one said "Did you actually hit the guy?"

Prolly was just as much of a surprise to the guy as the bloody nose! You two slay me. Thanks. He didn't even find out he had a bloody nose until I pointed it out to him! If you do things that don't make you appreciate life than why do them

Riding to the store to get a pack smokes - ya ya I know. A guy pulls out of the driveway and hits me. Well I saw it happening, I lifted a leg, leaned into it and took the blow as the bike was pushed out from under me. Poor guy he felt bad and said he didn't see me. The only thing sore is my first and his nose. If you do things that don't make you appreciate life than why do them

That second plane is a MiG 15 - Fagot. It is a plane that the DPRNK still flies as trainers. Lol If you do things that don't make you appreciate life than why do them
