GLIDEANGLE 1 #2 January 12, 2009 I think you are taking FAR more risk with your request than you do jumping from planes. I truly and sincerely hope we don't read about a "A female British skydiver who went missing a year ago was found in a shallow grave in the Mojave desert. Good luck, be safe (both on the ground and in the air). The choices we make have consequences, for us & for others! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Remster 30 #5 January 12, 2009 Are you guys fucking serious????? How many times have people asked for rides before on here? Hell, the OP has done this a couple times already... Get a grip.... Remster Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GLIDEANGLE 1 #6 January 12, 2009 QuoteHell, the OP has done this a couple times already... And this changes the risk how????? I do have a grip.... a very firm grip which is the product of having spent the majority of my adult life caring for trauma victims, many of them victims of violent crime. Unfortunately, some of my memories of these patients are permenantly burned into my consciousness. Life and skydiving are about risk management. It is my opinion that the OP has made a poor assessment of the risk/benefit for this particular plan.The choices we make have consequences, for us & for others!

dqpacker 7 #9 January 12, 2009 Dude are you kidding me. I think you need to chill out. I think it would have been different if she would have posted it on LookingtoKillUkchick.com. @OP-If you ever need a ride from Houston to Spaceland drop me a pm.

See... you proved my point But seriously, advertising her self in the phrasing she used isn't the smartest way to go about doing things, and it can bite her in the ass. Sorry for giving a damn I'm not against posting for rides, etc on here... I've 'adopted' 3 of DeWolf's students for his riggers' course on here and gave them free food/lodging/transportation for the entire week of the riggers' course when they asked for help. I didn't know any of them from a hole in the wall. Also gave another few rides from the airport. I'm also harmless. Mostly.

Scoop 0 #19 January 13, 2009 Haha, this has amused me! For god sake don't post you need a lift.... but feel free to go to the bonfire and post about how much of a slut you are or how horny you are Those "look at me I need attention and I'm just a bored sexy girl" threads are pretty embarrasing.

Just need to finda a "look at me, I need attention, I'm just a bored sexy girl and I need a ride" thread.
