    Nah, I mean what is it?

    American Civil Liberties Union

    I thought it was American Cry-babies and Losers Union.



    I was once told it was the American Communist Lawyers Union:D

  3. I had a pair of goggles fly off of me too. I had prescription sunglasses on underneath them. They went too. It was such a surprise that I also lost altitude awareness and the JM pulled. Thankfully, the JM was there. It taught me an important lesson. The next time something happened that caused me to lose focus in that manner, I waved off and pulled. Remember what they are drilling into you. Your priorities: 1 PULL 2 PULL at altitude 3 PULL stable.

    If I'm not in the field, I'm in the office...and I hate being in the office.



    Exactly my situation - except I am in Field Service, not sales. As much as I enjoy having the opportunity to visit dz.com, I prefer to be on the road rather than being in the office.

  5. I've been there and one of the things I like best about dz.com is the way info is organized. Over there you have to try to filter through all the mush to find a specific topic. Here, you can quickly look through the various topical forums. I also ended putting so many posters over there in kill files that it became a tedious process.

    Isn't that the purpose of the Supreme Court, to over-rule such changes to our Bill of Rights. Maybe someone out there can make sense of all this. It scares the hell out of me.



    I think the key is this line from bilvon's post.

    "MYTH: You can hold a conversation during freefall.
    FACT: Yes, Wesley Snipes may have done it in Drop Zone, but that was Hollywood. In reality, freefalling is way too loud to hear anything other than the wind screaming through your ears."



    My wuffo friends have always thought skydivers were an empty headed lot.:P

    Actually, the wind goes past my ears, not through.

    The most dangerous thing you will do is jump out of an airplane attached to another person who has a parachute.



    Good, someone keeping it honest. It is a dangerous sport and us neophytes must never forget that.

    That being said, everything possible to make it safe should be the priority of your tandem master and your only job is to listen to him/her and then relax and have fun.

    You'll have a great time.

    from time to time i get a bit out of hand,, i get this idea,, and i just build on it. I'm 45 yo and still wonder what i'll be when i grow up.



    See, there is your problem. I have realized that I have no choice but to grow older. I have made up my mind that I will never grow up. I am having too much fun this way!;):P

    So your belief incorporates evolution, God and aliens. 3 entities

    maybe.



    It still comes down to two: creation or evolution. Even if you believe aliens seeded the earth, the aliens had a beginning. Where did they come from? How did it all start? One or the other.

  11. This thread has convinced me that on my upcoming business trip in a couple of weeks that Delta is not an option. I will drive 1300 miles before I will fly with them.

  12. My biggest fear was that when that door opened I wouldn't be able to force myself out. No worry. I was so busy making sure I was doing everything correctly that I was in freefall before I realized it. And once that canopy opened, I was hooked.

    You will be too.:D
