  1. Kids are awesome. I took my 3 year old Niece to see the WFFC last year and she still calls me and talks about all the pretty parachutes. Now she wants me to throw her in the air so she can skydive. ----------- Ready, Set, Gooooooo
  2. New caption for the first pic. "I swear its THIIISSS Big" ----------- Ready, Set, Gooooooo
  3. OK, there is a Days Inn Rantoul - Days Inn 801 W. Champaign Rantoul , IL, US 61866. 217-893-0700 Super 8 Rantoul 207 South Murray Road Rantoul , IL, US 61866. 1-217-893-8888 The Super 8 is a newer hotel and would be the better choice. If you want, you can look in Champaign Urbana, you can get from Urbana to Rantoul on Route 45 in about 15 minutes. You can also there via Int 57 in about the same. There are a lot of hotels in Champaign Urbana. My uncle is a real estate agent in Rantoul and I am trying to find out if they have any apartments that are open during that time frame that they would be willing to Rent by the week. I will keep everyone updated if I can swing that. ----------- Ready, Set, Gooooooo
  4. Quote This is outrageous! I bet North Koreans would now feel vindicated for pulling out of Nuclear Non Proliferation Treaty. Before getting outraged, you need to look at the source of the "leaked" information. ***a top US private military expert has warned. [ Citing multiple sources, William Arkin said plans for using nuclear weapons against Iraq are being fleshed out at the US Strategic Command in Omaha*** Hello Unamed sources??? I bet the Star or the National Enquirer has run several of these stories on page three right after the story of the man who was separated at birth from A dog. ----------- Ready, Set, Gooooooo
  5. The latest two movies have stunck. ----------- Ready, Set, Gooooooo
  6. -------- To further add to the debate, if you kill him you may have some emotional trauma but you are safe. If you just injure him and he was a dangerous criminal, he will get sentenced to some time in jail spend about 10% of that time actually in the pen, While in jail he will lift weights and get bigger and meaner, he will watch his free cable TV and surf his free internet to find some sheister lawyer and sue you for the physical pain of the gunshot wound and the emotional trauma of his time in jail and you will lose your house and job. So just like your skydiving, practice your emergency procedures so that when you use the gun the criminal does not get up off the ground. ----------- Ready, Set, Gooooooo
  7. My new/used 1st beer rig is on the way to the DZ to be inspected by my rigger. CAn't wait for the weekend ----------- Ready, Set, Gooooooo
  8. The interesting part of this is a what if?? What if they shot him down for flying over restricted airspace. 1. If it was an innocent student, people are going to complain that the military acted with too much aggression and killed an innocent but confused student pilot. 2. If it happened to be a copter loaded with explosives the public is going to be thrilled that a potential catastrophe has been averted. 3. Would he have been shot down if Airforce 1 was on the ground preparing for departure? How much of our rights are we willing to give up to be safe? Sorry to throw a kink in the discussion, Pres Bush is in town today and traffic sucks because of all the extra security and the blocked roads and overpasses. ----------- Ready, Set, Gooooooo
  9. Don't forget to explain how when falling in terminal you can't breathe and you have to rely on your skin absorbing the oxygen. ----------- Ready, Set, Gooooooo
  10. I have kicked it back into high gear as of the new year. After a years worth of surgeries and missing the daily workout, I have a long road back to my days of doing marathons, but so far so good. I put about 9 hours on the stationary bike last week along with lifting and some aerobics. I start running tomorrow. Marathon is in September already signed up so I can't back out. Only way to keep up is to sign up for the future race so I have a goal to shoot for. But WOW do I hurt today. ----------- Ready, Set, Gooooooo
  11. QuoteTell them your going down to Florida to take care of a personal medical problem. Something you'd rather not discuss but must be done. Tell em you will be gone for a week Be careful on this one, one of the girls that goes to the gym I do went to Florida for a personal reason and came back with a Pamela Anderson style Chest. ----------- Ready, Set, Gooooooo
  12. Wow are people irritated today. Every phone call is someone who is upset about really silly things. Someone in the office mentioned that the full moon is upon us and that made me wonder: Does anyone else notice an increase in annoyed customers around a full moon? ----------- Ready, Set, Gooooooo
  13. Yah and on I57 between Effingham and Rantoul is a State Police HQ. ----------- Ready, Set, Gooooooo
  14. Depending on when you are in Chicago, Amtrack is a decent option. It leaves Chicago for Rantoul at around 4p arriving in Rantoul at 6p Leaves Rantoul for ChiTown at 7p. It's Like $20 round trip. Also Check St. Louis for a flight. It is a 2hour and 10 min drive from St. Louis to Rantoul at a relatively calm speed. Put the Pedal to the Metal and you can cut that time down a bit. ----------- Ready, Set, Gooooooo

    The 80's

    For all of us 80's HS grads, I was getting my Drivers License renewed the other day and ran into the new class of 2005 who are getting their DL last week. Talk about a bunch of really young looking kids. Does anyone remember Feathered Hair? ----------- Ready, Set, Gooooooo

  22. 3 classes to go and I will have mine. I got bored during the winter and decided to go back after a long time. ----------- Ready, Set, Gooooooo
  23. My old Timex Ironman watch finally shot craps today and I need a new watch. I was looking and saw that Timex has a do it all watch called the Helix that does Altitude up to 18000ft, temp, and Barametric Pressure. It must not have been too popular, because I found it for 59 bucks. Has anyone ever seen one of these. Before anyone says anything, it would not replace my Altimaster. Was just curious if a skydiver has put it through its paces. ----------- Ready, Set, Gooooooo
  24. I am scared to think that people actually bid on that. How much is shipping on your sock full of quarters. Next thing we will see is the Sock full of comemorative State Quarters. It will even come with a display board to nail the sock to. ----------- Ready, Set, Gooooooo
  25. Hopefully it will still be in Rantoul. Organizers are arguing with the city over some issues, don't think anything is for certain yet. ----------- Ready, Set, Gooooooo
