So a jumper who cannot turn 10 points on a 4 way, cannot swoop a small canopy, and cannot qualify for a PRO rating - is not a skydiver? Bad skydivers are still skydivers.

Skyrad 0 #30 July 26, 2006 QuoteQuoteI'd just like to take this opportunity to publicly appologise to JohnRich. I made a post on this thread that some of you may have seen (which was deleted following a complaint) in which I made a lame atempt at a joke. It was not taken as such and I publicly appologise to JohnRich for insinuating that he was the sniper in question. I do not doubt that JohnRich had absolutly nothing to do with this incident and I am sure that he was in no way involved and most likely wasn't even near the area at the time. John please accept my sincere appologies. I did not mean to upset you and it was both irresponsible of me to imply that you may have been the nut case involved. Yours sincerly Skyrad Apology noted, did you contact John directly? I hope you know he is a pretty damned good guy. He contacted me to tell me of his feelings, I appologised both to him by PM and told him I'd also publicly appologise. I don't doubt that he is a good bloke. It was an off joke which wasn't intended to offend.When an author is too meticulous about his style, you may presume that his mind is frivolous and his content flimsy.

Bad snipers are still snipers. you really raised the bar with that PRO stuff - does 40 points on a one-way count? but for real - don't really care what label gets placed on this person - when they catch 'em lets hope the lawyer doesn't try the insanity defenseGive one city to the thugs so they can all live together. I vote for Chicago where they have strict gun laws. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
