  2. The thing I like best at my job would be free use of brand new Infinity and Nissans plus free gas
  3. Sorry but I take issue with this one: Nissan (cars - majority owned by If nissan were owned in majority by renault the car lines would share a common platform on some of the models. They do not.
  4. Too bad you need the car now. The 350z is coming out in a roadster(ragtop) this summer/fall. We have a production trial model here at NNA/LA and it is SWEEEEET!

  6. I was one of the mudpuddle divers on friday. I should have stuck to landing in north field
  7. I made my 100th skydive today without anything special. Just me and the sky, flying on my back and enjoying the view. This was an affirmation of what I love about this sport: human flight is the second most beautiful thing I have experienced in my life, and every jump is a gift from my creator

  15. I will be there 17th thru the 19th. I am bringing the rv so anyone that needs a place to crash for the weekend is welcome, space permitting
  16. This scheme may not work for you now, but it did wonders for me when I was 18: show up for court on the day posted on the ticket and request an extention(minimum 30 days) show up on last possible day and plead not guilty. from here the date is usually set at least 30 days ahead. When you show up on the next date, there is a good chance the officer cannot show due to being in court somewhere else. no show officer = dismissal. If he does show up, ask for traffic school. I beat 7 tickets this way

  18. I spent saturday jumping at perris, and decided I would skip the last load and just head home. I dropped my rig off with the packer to do the last pack, and spent a few minutes chatting with Kimmer about the day. I went back to get my rig, and it is GONE! I ask the packer if he saw who picked up my talon2 And he says he diddn't see anyone grab it, but he is scrambling to get everyone on the last 3 planes. I am about to start freaking out now....if I lost my rig I am screwed I see one unclaimed rig in the pile that looks a little like mine, an older talon, t6 black with 6 diagonal stripes on the pin cover. My rig is a black talon2 t6, 3 diagonal stripes on the cover. I begin to hope somebody just made a mistake and grabbed the wrong one. The planes are up by this time, so I wait near the runway with Jack Gramley and LT diver for signs of my fruity spectre with the yellow center cell. The guy ended up jumping it, and luckily all went well, a safe jump. If he had done a handle check, he would have caught the mistake:his rig has a freefly handle, mine has a hacky. He was really embarrased by the error, and couldnt stop apologising for it. He even bought me a beer
  19. hey, JT need a place to crash? mi casa es su casa. I haven't worked out exactly ehich days I can be there yet....its way too late and drunk to think
  20. it says I am a skydiver! I just wish I hadn't taken 40 years to figure this out
  21. Umm, I guess you would at least have to stun him or knock him unconscious to get him on the skewer
  22. I was there in the 80's waay before I was a skydiver. Its a beautiful country with good food and good, cheap booze. IMHO one of the best spots I stopped at down there.
  23. I found this little item in The Register this morning in the trivia column by L.M Boyd: "if rats and mice are tossed out of an airplane at high altitude, the rats will die in the fall but the mice will walk away from it" Theb sad thing is, someone probably spent grant money tossing animals out of planes to learn this
