I went for the first time on a dare, the rest is history. The other two guys who went with me have never jumped again, my wife did until she broke her back on level four that is another story. "Don't! Get! Eliminated!"

I am not aware of any personal property that was stolen, except for the DZO's. Maybe Shotat had a camera stolen, I don't know. If so, he should be able to recover it by giving the police a complete description, including model and serial numbers, filing a complaint and checking local pawn shops. The Sheriff SHOULD do that for him. (Check the local pawn shops.) Also, I do not see how this would give the dz a "black eye". It just goes to show that anyone can be duped.

You know, you don't just spot to see where you are but also to look for traffic in the pattern. I alwys try to look down before exiting not just to see where I am but to look for things that I might run into in freefall. You can't always do that because you are in a formation and just have to run out the door but if you climb out you better always look down. Just my 0.02 Edit: I really don't usually look down when I climb out, someone ALWAYS spots and you just trust them to do a good job. Sometimes, you get hosed, sometimes you are just dumb. Like when there is "haze" and the pilot says go and you do, and land about 6 miles from the dz. (Hey I paid my $99, I'm going to jump.) "Don't! Get! Eliminated!"

I have this problem too, if you just crack it open under canopy it will clear the fog and the wind will not dry your eyes out. Practice opening it on the ground with your gloves on and it WILL become easier. (My first jump with it it fogged up and I could not get it open and wound up busting my butt.

Alright, the guy was arrested, brought back most of the stuff he stole. He was working for the dz as a packer. He will probably only get probation and pay restitution and because of his age and lack of criminal record will apply for and recieve youthful offender status which means that when he applys for jobs in the future he will be able to say that he has never been arrested and the prospective employer will not be able to see that he has. All in all, the situation sucks and I suspect that Mark just wanted to try and make sure that he does not use his packing skills to rip off another dz in the future.

Now, now Mark, no personal attacks although I think he should be strung up by his, uh, ears?? "Don't! Get! Eliminated!"

Shouldn't I get an error message that says it is too big???

I browse to locate, double click and the addresss appears in the window but when I click upload, it just disappears. It meets the size requirements, less than 60kb. What is wrong with me?

AS YOU MAY ALREADY KNOW, IT IS A SIN FOR A TALIBAN MALE TO SEE ANY WOMAN OTHER THAN HIS WIFE NAKED, AND THAT HE MUST COMMIT SUICIDE IF HE DOES. SO THIS SATURDAY AT 4 P.M. EASTERN TIME ALL AMERICAN WOMEN ARE ASKED TO WALK OUT OF THEIR HOUSE COMPLETELY NAKED TO HELP WEED OUT ANY NEIGHBORHOOD TERRORISTS. CIRCLING YOUR BLOCK FOR ONE HOUR IS RECOMMENDED FOR THIS ANTI-TERRORIST EFFORT. ALL MEN ARE TO POSITION THEMSELVES IN LAWN CHAIRS IN FRONT OF THEIR HOUSE TO PROVE THEY ARE NOT TALIBAN, AND TO DEMONSTRATE THAT THEY THINK ITS OKAY TO SEE NUDE WOMEN OTHER THAN THEIR WIFE AND TO SHOW SUPPORT FOR ALL AMERICAN WOMEN. AND, SINCE THE TALIBAN ALSO DOES NOT APPROVE OF ALCOHOL, A COLD 6-PACK AT YOUR SIDE IS FURTHER PROOF OF YOUR ANTI-TALIBAN SENTIMENT. THE AMERICAN GOVERNMENT APPRECIATES YOUR EFFORTS TO ROOT OUT TERRORISTS AND APPLAUDS YOUR PARTICIPATION IN THIS ANTI-TERRORIST ACTIVITY. GOD BLESS AMERICA. IT IS YOUR PATRIOTIC DUTY TO PASS THIS ON.

Some things that humans are told they should not do, but other animals can
Nutz replied to lawrocket's topic in The Bonfire
Dogs lick their balls and you can't? Perhaps this is an issue that you and the dog should discuss privately. I recommend petting him first. He might just bite your face. I am reminded of the story of the man's friend being over and seeing the dog lick his balls he says,"I wish I could do that." His friend replys,"Go ahead, he'll let you." "Don't! Get! Eliminated!" -
Man. I love harriers but they are LOUD. I was working on Luke Air Force range on the other side of the mountain from Yuma and they used to come by, shoot a target with a sidewinder and then come back and hover to see if they hit it. Also, if you have your back to them and they sneak up on you about 50' off the deck about 600 mph, it is very shocking to say the least. (You may need to change your pants.) "Don't! Get! Eliminated!"

I have been at 1.3 sinse about 30 jumps. Busted my ass for 10 or so then started getting standups. I'm at 234 now and no problems. "Don't! Get! Eliminated!"

We did jumps from 22,500 AGL one day at our dz. We had to use oxygen in the plane, I think any higher and we would have needed bail out bottles. It was one of the most memorable jumps ever. Expensive, $50, but well worth it. "Don't! Get! Eliminated!"

He was kicked out of Iraq for giving away his position. I can't believe they let him back in.
-
I jumped without mine while it was gone and then my rigger was nice enough to reinstall it without repacking the reserve.

I think it is a reference to - well - his physical endowment. (Is that politically correct enough?) "Don't! Get! Eliminated!"

PEACEFUL? Jerry - that reply was not very peaceful. Just my $0.02 "Don't! Get! Eliminated!"

Thats funny! Thanks! "Don't! Get! Eliminated!"

How many people are planning to attend a safety day this year?
Nutz replied to airdweller's topic in The Bonfire
Ditto, would not miss it. "Don't! Get! Eliminated!" -
If you make your own parachute and jump it - do you need a cart to wheel around the very large body parts between your legs? Just wondering. "Don't! Get! Eliminated!"

Curley would pack it in Cullman, but I think he does reserves on Fridays. Call him and see toll free (866)345-5867 www.SkydiveAl.com

Nutz replied to gerryfuss's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
Dude - jumping through clouds is illegal - it was "industrial haze" Pretty thick too from what you say. -
Man! That is funny. I watched it twice and laughed and laughed. "Don't! Get! Eliminated!"
