0:10:0 Simon, you forgot: 1 - incorrectly assembled kill-line pilot chute that resulted in a nasty opening and tore the shit out of SkydiveXXL's camera. Lizzie: Hey, you owe beer even with a hangover, you should know that! Doctor I ain't gonna die, Just write me an alibi! ---- Lemmy/Slash

Jesus...QUIT WHINING you meat-hauling suck-ass!! You're gonna be buyin LizzieB hurricanes in a couple hours, and I'm gonna be baby sitting...I don't wanna hear it!! (You know I meant the "meat-hauling suck-ass" with all the H-town love I could add, right ?) C-ya Saturday.... Doctor I ain't gonna die, Just write me an alibi! ---- Lemmy/Slash

Well of COURSE you were gonna say that Actually, I am already planning a trip for mid-August, just want to talk to them and set up time...thought I'd check out Elsinore as well. Doctor I ain't gonna die, Just write me an alibi! ---- Lemmy/Slash

Don't know if these are to your taste, but I've just started re-reading "In the Electric Mist with Confederate Dead" by James Lee Burke. He turns the hard-boiled-detective genre on it's ear, and is possibly the greatest prose writer in this genre. Any one of his Dave Robicheaux books is good, but ITEMWCD is a cut above.

Getting pretty comfortable with swooping my little (for me) 1.7 loaded Vengeance 135, but I want to start getting some training from the REAL swoopers. Anybody have any first-hand experience with the schools in California such as Perris or Elsinore (or at least with the instructors there)? I'm thinking about spending at least a weekend down south later this year, and would like to get some high-performance training while I'm there. I also plan on hitting Florida later in the year, and will probably set up something with Scott Miller or someone else from Deland while I'm out there. Thanks in advance for the info

I have gone as low as 1800' to avoid some poor-tracking fool once, but I prefer 3K, particularly since I jump a canopy that will routinely take 800' to open and has taken over 1000' more than once (but's it's SOOOO soft

Oh Christ....I just realized, I've graduated from "newbie" to "enthusiast"! Help me, PLEASE!!! I can't stop!!! I need PWA, bad! Doctor I ain't gonna die, Just write me an alibi! ---- Lemmy/Slash

I spoke with a riigger back in Deland last year who had seen this problem on a rig, don't remember which manufacturer it was. Also don't recall seeing this on any H-town rigs, but now I'll keep my eyes open. Easy prevention for this is to buy risers from Mirage. I prefer their toggle setup, and they have the armored cable housing, which would defintely prevent this problem from occurring. Doctor I ain't gonna die, Just write me an alibi! ---- Lemmy/Slash

Nope, she definitely looks like you and Steph...minus the metal, of course. Iceman Doctor I ain't gonna die, Just write me an alibi! ---- Lemmy/Slash

Hey, I'm actually WORKING on my performance review...maybe I should include this... BTW, I'm on my lunch break, all you post-whoring yahoos should be ashamed of yourselves... Iceman Doctor I ain't gonna die, Just write me an alibi! ---- Lemmy/Slash

Hey Seb, any way you can drop the rest of the areas into the Pacific, and just leave the Nut? Thanks in advance, and WELCOME, POP!!! Maybe you can keep this dude under control...FIRE SUPPRESSION, WE NEED FIRE SUPPRESSION!! Iceman Doctor I ain't gonna die, Just write me an alibi! ---- Lemmy/Slash

And of course the Iceman gets: Dick-in-the-Dirt Ingredients: 1 shot Peach schnapps 1/2 shot Bacardi 151 proof rum 1/2 shot Southern Comfort 1/2 shot Yukon Jack 1 splash Pineapple juice 1 splash Cranberry juice 1 splash Grand Marnier Mixing instructions: Mix all ingredients in a tall glass on the rocks Yeah, I'd drink it, rather than nibble and lick at it like Slowfaller's Doctor I ain't gonna die, Just write me an alibi! ---- Lemmy/Slash

Is that before or after they spend the night in the deep-fryer? Just curious, is the poor little thing still flailing around in there? If so, make it stop, as turtlespeed is now the King of Flail, and is not allowing flailing from other sources... I'm guessing this isn't something Tyler Florence from "Food 911" would be prepared for, you should write a letter Iceman Doctor I ain't gonna die, Just write me an alibi! ---- Lemmy/Slash

I'll make sure you have plenty of Icy Products available for your flailing injuries Iceman Doctor I ain't gonna die, Just write me an alibi! ---- Lemmy/Slash

Oh...I thought you were going to be the "King of TAIL"...but I'm sure being KOF will be very nice, too. Iceman Doctor I ain't gonna die, Just write me an alibi! ---- Lemmy/Slash

Hey, some of the most powerful machines of the 20th century came about because a redneck with a cuttin' torch decided to challenge himself...don't cut yourself short, buddy! I've always thought putting it right next to the fridge with the arrow flashing "for those who owe...here you go" would be lame but appropriate...every skydiver would know EXACTLY what it meant, the whuffos would never understand.

Hey, I'm dealing with the Empress of the Universe here! It's all about respect...and I got my position! Iceman (AKA Earl) Doctor I ain't gonna die, Just write me an alibi! ---- Lemmy/Slash

Well, I'm on pretty good terms with the Ruler of the Free World, Hairstylist, Gravity God, and the Lord of Libations, so maybe I can apply for a position here as well (even though I'm a newbie). Perhaps the Earl of Airconditioning and Icy Products position is still available...I've already got the name for it, and somebody has to a) keep Florida and Eloy bearable until November, and b) help SkydiveXXL keep all those libations cold (not to mention a couple rocks for the Anvil's whiskey...) I don't even have to report to you...I could be the Lord of Libation's assistant, with merely a dotted-line reporting to the Empress...that way, I can just concentrate on making the RIGHT shit cold, and winters would be a lot easier to take... Please let me know if my humble application has been accepted. Your humble servant, Iceman Doctor I ain't gonna die, Just write me an alibi! ---- Lemmy/Slash

Like a couple other folks here, did mine at Eloy with Burner, very cool time. Just a couple notes: 1) If you're tall, duck...when those burners light up, those of us who are hair challenged and/or taller than 5'8' are frying. 2) The worst part for me was taking off...the wind was up at dusk, and the freakin basket was practically on it's side at one point. 3) We were there during the Valentine Money Meet 2002, so the balloon's going up with Airspeed, the Knights, and the rest of the comp and freefly guys swooping around the balloon...VERY cool! 4) The exit is a piece of cake there (usually exiting at 5K), and the freefall pretty cool. DON'T wear a helmet, you can really hear the wind speed increase, very fun. 5) Only downer about a 5K balloon jump: by 4K, it's just another skydive. I pondered my situation (suck it down to enjoy the whole experience, or pull high and go drink beer), and decided to pull at 3...landed in the peas at the main landing had a beer in my hand 45 minutes before all my friends got back in the van. So, what can I say...GO DO IT! You will enjoy the hell out of it, and it's worth every extra penny. Iceman Doctor I ain't gonna die, Just write me an alibi! ---- Lemmy/Slash

YEAH BABY! ChopChop manages to bring the "Sodomy is Legal" topic to every thread in DZ.com! We throw ourselves to our collective knees and bow in abject surrender to...the Master! Doctor I ain't gonna die, Just write me an alibi! ---- Lemmy/Slash

I have watched him tape his flip-flops to his feet in order to shoot AFF video, so this whole "socks" discussion is a little unnerving...I hope he's not talking about the Clinton's pet?! Doctor I ain't gonna die, Just write me an alibi! ---- Lemmy/Slash

Two things: 1) When did you start wearing socks? 2) You are never, never, NEVER allowed to touch my reserve ever again...it will probably end up with all your socks in it. Iceman Doctor I ain't gonna die, Just write me an alibi! ---- Lemmy/Slash

Maybe next time...and you're right, that WAS a disturbing evening...probably a good thing you guys didn't go, Seb would probably have had to "pay" for the fuel, too...and here we are, back to "Sodomy is Legal" again Doctor I ain't gonna die, Just write me an alibi! ---- Lemmy/Slash

Meg, remind me to tell you about Egon and the sheep...as for Seb, let's ask him how he was going to convince Rocky to fly him, Adam and Lizzieb to Eloy... But Seriously...HAPPY BIRTHDAY, SEB!! Have a great one, after next year, they're all downhill, and you can't bump it outta the corner with a little rear riser Iceman Doctor I ain't gonna die, Just write me an alibi! ---- Lemmy/Slash
