  1. :5:1 5 freefly jumps on Saturday; beer owed for filling up my first logbook; rain on Sunday. O
  2. I wouldn't want to be alone with my own company if I was him either ... O
  3. I'd certainly do it ... with a BASE rig!!! O
  4. Ha ha ... you are uninjured, so it's all good. I almost forgot to mention that I owe beer for "almost getting killed" in a "almost canopy colision" - but I'll probably start a thread on "Safety and Training" for this one. (A f***ing idiot with 1500 jumps was doing his recurrency jump ... and cut me off on final ... twice - I got it on video, so it will make for a good discussion.) O
  5. Get jumping, will ya? Tell my friends at Z-hills that I miss them and can't wait to see them all in the Fall/Winter. Say hi to TK (the DZO) and Martin (my FF coach.) O
  6. "Nookie" ... "bookie" - what the hell are we talking about? I may not recall the history on the "weekend numbers" correcty, but I think we're reporting on: humps : jumps : beer owed And, everyone stopped reporting on "humps" a long time ago ... I'm just following the crowd on this one. O
  7. You are assuming (and you are very wrong) that "" means I didn't "get any nookie" - it simply means "I'm not talking about it"
  8. :10:2 Finally double digit numbers to report; 7 freefly jumps and 3 hop and pop. Beer owed for breaking my personal record of jumps in one day (previous was 5, I did 7 on Saturday). Beer owed for 4 hours of freefall time reached on the last jump on Sunday. 300th is coming!!! O
  9. I want to do my 300th at the boogie ... which means I got to do 20 jumps in the next 2 weeks ... O
  10. 16 jumps? 20 jumps??? You guys suck!!!!!!!!!!!! O
  11. :4:0 I took a vacation day on Friday to get a boat load of jumps in over an extended weekend - it didn't happen. Wind, wind, wind - ugh, at this pace, it will take me the rest of the year to get to my 300th . O
  12. Thanks Wendy ... curiosity had me click on that link ... and now I'm going to be on my computer for a while ... O
  13. The poor grammar in a printed ad (targeted at you, the skydiver) should offend everybody … it says “you’re too stupid to notice … or care” … Well, it seems Ward got it right … he’s a genius after all ... O
  14. ...… says the guy named “Pinkee” hiding behind the image of a cartoon
  15. “No one really buys a rig because of the advertising they put in the magazine” … so, why bother running an ad then? Isn’t the whole purpose of advertising campaigns to raise awareness with the consumer? As for your disappointment with the implied realization that today’s skydivers aren’t a good sport when it comes to things dirty (i.e. sexual), it seems you haven’t “heard” anything that was said in those “complaints” – it’s not the sexual innuendo that has most of us offended … there is no clever disguise in that message … it’s flat out cheesy . Lastly, using the “rushed/busy” excuse for the grammar error on a one sentence message is … how did you put it? … “rather ridiculous”
  16. Within one day, he has a Facebook fanpage, t-shirt line and his own ringtone. I wish him success, and I hope they find his sister's attacker. ... and that's the world we live in; one can become famous for being so stupid it hurts to watch/listen to him ... O
  17. :4:0 Not enough sleep on Friday night made for a groggy Saturday ... and only 1 jump; with clouds on and off, 3 jumps on Sunday - one 3-way belly, one 2-way freefly and one hop 'n pop (to fly my canopy with the new 22 inch risers); 4 inches seemed to have made a huge difference (canopy much more responsive ... and a hell of a lot more flare). Taking a couple of Fridays off this month ... trying to get to my 300th before or at the Pep boogie (end of August). O
  18. Good Morning Bry ... and the gang - I need my coffee today, big time. My active weekends leave me so tired ... I don't want to get out of bed on Monday mornings ... O
  19. Umm ... this is not Europe ... it is America (i.e. prude as hell) - just the suggestion of nudity (which is the case with that picture) will offend a lot of people. O
  20. Quickly becoming a pet peeve of mine - getting random friend requests, without even an introduction ... O
  21. I am just not looking to collect "friends" ... even if we met, but never say "hi" or interact in any way, it tells me you don't care to be my friend ... and I don't see a point. Though, I'm starting to see the flaw in this (my) thinking - I often have friends tell me: "I see you did this and that" ... "Glad to see your dog is getting better" ... "How was Z-hills?". Just like here ... there are a lot of "lurkers" on Facebook ... O
  22. Done it once ... lead me to an even bigger offense --dating at work -- NEVER again!!! O
  23. 558 ... and yes, I've actually met 99.99% of those people. I deleted about 200 of those "I'm friending you because you're a skydiver, or because I think you're hot" people a couple of months ago ... O
  24. You got me … I’m an wild uptight liar – anything else while at it?
