  1. I am the legal representation for this group and we think the list to be well thought out and full of reason. There are other things that "my clients" want, but we felt that we should not be greedy and ask for "everything". People don't forget to give your DZO a little bit of Hell---- they need it!! Nathan
  2. Like it or not, I fear this is the way of the future- not saying I agree with it. But this is not a new idea- it has been happening for a while. I am a high school teacher in the Houston area. I have taught in 2 very prestigious school districts here and they have both been that way for a while. I do not know of a district in the area that doesn't (not saying there aren't - I just don't know.) A students "Rights" while on campus is a very hazy concept. The schools argument is that it is "not mandatory" only if you want to drive on campus or be involved in extra curricular activities. They see one as "potentially cutting down the amount of drugs on campus in cars and to cut down on athletes using banned substances." If you do not think high school students are using steroids, you are sadly mistaken. Right now the big increase is in the ladies sports believe it or not- it could pay for college. It goes against what I think and my concept of freedom, but I also think that if people don't like it then they should educate their own children so they can make their own rules. The world has rules like it or not...... I Do Not Like it Nathan
  3. I think early on we are all of "two minds"...... all of our senses and logic tell us that what we are doing is not "natural"!! Yet our heart tells us "We just got to make at least ONE more jump!!!!" Training and education are the best things to bring these "two minds" together. I say go after AFF - thatt will show you if this is for you. Welcome Nathan
  4. We all find the things we should when the time is right!
  5. I am really looking forward to this. Getting the points will be fun.... but its the antics after the point is completed that is going to be the real blast!! Nathan
  6. I can not wait until Friday!! Looks like 6 or 8 or 10ish (we will see who doesn't bitch out) of us from Skydive Houston will be there Friday morning. Hope you like Jager SHOTS!!!! Nathan
  7. Team Jager should be showing up with a group (and some Jager) Those that I have talked with and myself are planning on the 18th-21st. You have been warned!! Nathan
  8. we have put the batteries in some kid toys and they go into overdrive if you use 2. If you use 1 and a normal dead(already used) battery they work well. They can fry stuff though LOL Nathan
  9. What an all-around fun event. Great people, great times, and great learning experiences. Thanks a lot to everyone who "made it happen" Nathan
  10. You got that right!! I am really looking forward to this weekend. I am betting that a FUN time will be had by all (except maybe for a few candyasses)!!! LOL Nathan
  11. Kavin I am going to slap you inner child. Looks like I am going to have to do another WS jump- sounds like there will be plenty of people to work with me. Nathan
  12. I was talking to the SKY the other day, and it said it missed you. Nathan
  13. Hey, I am in if you are thinking about them on Saturday. Or when are you thinking??? Nathan
  14. Tell Him John................... That's what we do once the beer light is on!!!! Nathan
  15. That there is some funny shit! Kinda like the ad for Italian military rifles...never fired, only dropped once. or how in the old days the British officers wore red uniform jackets so their troops couldn't see the blood if they were wounded...same reason the French officers wore brown pants! I like the french Tank- only 1 gear forward but 5 in reverse!!! Nathan
  16. Like the industrial look???? Traffic only sucks trying to go into town from 6 am- 1pm and out of town from 2pm- 8pm. Other than that its good. On a good note, from that area the traffic to the DZ will not be bad. Nathan
  17. I bet by that point any DZ will look Beautiful!! Thanks.. Nathan
  18. I agree with this...... but I still find myself thinking- you say how much stolen gear sucks, then say that he should get the butt end of it. You take on the problem so my friend doesn't. Yet I still agree that the right thing to do is return it (which puts him without gear.) This is a shitty scenario to be in. Moral= check numbers on all used gear! Just thinking out loud. Nathan
  19. Just a suggestion.... how about adding the planes these prices are for. The reason is, in my mind a "reasonable" price also directly correlates to the plane. For example, I have paid $30 US to jump a CASA- I would not pay this to jump a cessna. Anyway, just an idea. Nice Job!! Nathan
  20. Looks fun to jump! Wonder what it costs??? Nathan
  21. Hey pot, you quit picking on us kettles!!! Nathan
  22. Don't sleep with married women and you don't have to worry about their husbands!!!!! Nathan
  23. There's no way I will be able to make that many jumps! Glad to Know that nothing can happen to me! Nathan
