Woo Hoo!!! 25 points... count them and weep! Another container will score me 1 more point!

#6 needs an option that they say they don't get to spend as much time as you at a DZ.

Edit: forgot a question to score off of.

I got 21, too. I'm a geek.

That test is too easy. I think it needs updating. Maybe some questions on rigging certifications, living in a van at the dz, ratings, world records (eyeing the bytch), posts on dropzone.com, etc.

Skydiving is for cool people only

I got 33 (saw the part about adding all of the points for a question where more than one answer applies).

Fortunately I got rid of my collection of Parachutists, or it might've been higher. We ARE trying to get low scores, right?

There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence. (tbrown)

16 ... I'm workin' on it...

So I try and I scream and I beg and I sigh
Just to prove I'm alive, and it's alright
'Cause tonight there's a way I'll make light of my treacherous life
Make light!

At 29 points I think I passed geek and went straight to AirWhore.
