Jimbo 0 #2 November 10, 2002 0:0:0 It's absolutely beautiful here and I'm stuck trying to get a $60,000 piece of software installed. One would think that $60,000 software would install the RIGHT way, the FIRST time. I've been dealing with this company's support group for 2 1/2 weeks now. The software MUST be installed by Monday. It's a good thing I'm not bitter about this. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jimbo 0 #5 November 10, 2002 Quotetwo words mixed together can fix that problem: Shot-gun. "Here CEO... here CEO CEO CEO... *BANG!* " problem fixed. I wish. Anyhow, I've got the attention of a few of the higher-ups in the company. We'll talk about how they're going to compensate me when this is over, but all the compensation talk in the world doesn't get this fscking software installed. - Jim"Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends.

pilotdave 0 #9 November 10, 2002 Quote On friday we jumped outa a GA8 20 hours old!! A new jump plane? Never heard of such a thing! Jump planes should be broken in a little with 10 to 30 years of hard labor first. Dave Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lolie 0 #13 November 10, 2002 Quoteit gets to be over 60 in chicago....and it gets cloudy. Yup, didn't even go to the dz this weekend... That makes 0:0:0 for me. It was a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad weekend. I think I'll move to Florida. (btw- It wasn't really that bad of a weekend; does anyone know the book "Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day"?) -Miranda you shall above all things be glad and young / For if you're young,whatever life you wear it will become you;and if you are glad / whatever's living will yourself become.

Dumpster 0 #17 November 10, 2002 2:2:2 Only got 2 jumps in on the demo Sabre II It's going to be hard going back to my Spectre, when it comes back from PD. Club meeting last nite- I am now an official, permanant member of Sky Knights! EXCITING NEWS! Looks like we'll have a Super Otter from April to November, instead of the King Air! Not too bad for our humble little Wisconsin DZ! Hope everyone else has had a fun, safe weekend! Easy Does It Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Skyrose7 0 #19 November 10, 2002 0:0:0 Well, I don't really know how to handle this. This is the first weekend sice april that I haven't been to the dropzone. Well, I did go there this weekend, just didn't jump. It was nice and warm, and they called me to say they were jumping, but by the time I got out there the winds kicked way up. Oh, I can't wait for Eloy. That will probably be the next jump I get! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The mind is like a parachute--it works better when it is open. JUMP.

Jumperpaula 0 #22 November 10, 2002 0:1:0 First jump in a month after three straight weekends of rain in Houston. Landed off in a plowed field which was rained on for 3 weeks, swam through a ditch, parahiked about 1/2 a mile in full gear and 10 pound weight vest. Got mud on my canopy- Para-hiking....two sports which should not be combined. My fault for jumping in 25 mph winds in the first place. Done- for the weekend at least. Skydive was great though....

sunshine 2 #24 November 10, 2002 60:1:0 60 seconds of intense pain during my 1 jump. Stupid ice/rain... Weather sucked all weekend. A group of us went to see The Ring (don't waste your money). Had some good girl talks with tadbad. I shot someone in the ass with a BB gun!! That was way fun!! Hopefully better weather next weekend. ___________________________________________ meow I get a Mike hug! I get a Mike hug! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
