  1. I agree. Did half my house that way. Each room took about a half day to rip the whole floor out. Another half day to lay a new sub-floor. The next day I finished the room. Plus you can level the floor if there is a small pitch. I went that route so I have no raised door enties. The room with a small rise is because I put a lamanite in that room.
  2. Please post in Febuary how to donate. I will make a donatation and so will my company.
  3. Here in Wisconsin they charge about $40 for a base line curve. I must also agree on the Power Commander. It all depends on the shop that does the work. Had a 103 big bore put in my Road King. Was running way too rich. Took the bike to a difference dealer and found out they messed up and mapped the Power Commander wrong. Since the fix, I'm thrilled.
  4. Did five crew jumps at WFFC. Now I'm looking for a Lightning 160. Any leads would be welcome. Blue Skies Bill
  5. Would like to request 2 patches and four stickers.
  6. Listen asshole, when you get $5000.00 dollars worth of cameras and lens stolen, then try to be funny.
  7. My house was broken into about 2 weeks ago. I have been dealing with the insurance company for too long. My 20-D, 10-D and 4 wide angle lens were taken. After talking to the insurance company, they can not get me a new 10-D. They said I could order 2 new 20-D cameras, or a 20-D and a difference camera for the same price. What would you do in my place. I'm not sure that ordering two 20-D is a good idea. Any thoughts? Blue Skies
  8. Was going to tpye this a hour ago, but figured I could do it later.
  9. Dam, note to self, cancel ad for skydiving hottie at WFFC.
  10. When she is done, asks if she still has her watch.

    I guess my question is "Who's leg is it?"
  13. At my DZ we do IAD. We have both yokes still in the plane. So we have the student sit along side the pilot, with the instructor sitting back to back with the first student out. At about 1500 ft AGL the instructor gets up and checks his gear. Then he checks the students gear. At about 3000 ft AGL we get the student up. Being behind the student you can assist the student to his knees. Once the student is to his knees we remove his pilot chute and tell them " I have your pilot chute." With the pilot chute in your left hand, you check with the pilot for the door. If the pilot said OK, you tell the other students in the plane to protect your handles with your left hand across to the cut away handle. At this point you call door. After taking the door, you transfer the pilot chute to your right hand. After that your put your right foot out on the step and tell the student to stand by. On the stand by command, the student puts their right foot along side your foot and their right hand on the rear door jam and their left hand on a handle we have on the front of the door jam. At this point the student has three points of contact with the plane. With the pilot chute in my right hand , I usually hold the students yoke with my left. When we get over the spot I will instruct the student to climb out and hang, left hand first. We have found that after hanging, the student checks-in. Then we say skydive, and the student looks forward, tilts head back and releases the strut. We have found that since we have the student check-in, they are remembering the start or the top end of the jump.
  14. Please forward the red bustier to Adam, I'm sure he will model it. Then again, that could be a very bad idea.
