  1. But if its magazine fed, then the one bullet is always next "Damn you Gravity, you win again"
  2. I call it... "We're here, where the hell are you?" "Damn you Gravity, you win again"
  3. Oregon is the best place on Earth... but Bend is on the wrong side of the mountains "Damn you Gravity, you win again"
  4. I knew I wasn't the only one thinking that "Damn you Gravity, you win again"
  5. I'm sure no one would mind if you just re-submitted them here "Damn you Gravity, you win again"
  6. I don't know much about it, but I know the DOD was paying some compensation for military members that had to PCS and sell a house in this shitty market. Worth looking into if you qualify or not... "Damn you Gravity, you win again"
  7. That is a very positive change. I still think its in a DZ's best interest not to participate, but the wording is no longer misleading... "Damn you Gravity, you win again"
  8. I was pretty disappointed to see The Farm in this network... but was happy that not one Alabama DZ was cooperating. "Damn you Gravity, you win again"
  9. I usually get it by the 20th though. Still my only complaint with the whole magazine... Should get March issue on the last week of February Everything else I love about it. "Damn you Gravity, you win again"
  10. Still haven't got my March issue "Damn you Gravity, you win again"
  11. It was such a nice day today, I had to take the bike for a ride. Grabbed some sushi with friends and am currently sitting in the pool hall. So yeah, good day. "Damn you Gravity, you win again"
  12. ATL is about an hour, but if your flying Southwest you'll have to go to BHM which is about 2 hours. You'll still probably have an easy time finding a ride share from there also. Might be worth looking into, if it saves you a bunch on your plane ticket. "Damn you Gravity, you win again"
  13. You probably did, but unless you introduced yourself as Thrillstalker; you probably just got our real names. If you weren't introducing yourself at all, then you should've been. On a similar note, it's impossible not to see who John Deere was if you were watching the landing area at all... "Damn you Gravity, you win again"
  14. Sounds like the opposite to me... A BOFH is someone that users should fear, an admin that knows the job very well and enjoys torturing every PEBKAC. "Damn you Gravity, you win again"
  15. Obviously you're no BOFH "Damn you Gravity, you win again"
  16. I heard about it before Spence even made an announcement, but I didn't know it was Pops who made the save... shoulda known "Damn you Gravity, you win again"
  17. I'll just say I gave my AFF instructor $10 after each jump. I also gave $5 to a coach when I felt they did well. Compared to the amount I was already spending, it wasn't a big deal to me. But really helped forge some lasting friendships. Hell, I even gave the pilot a buck or two for each load I was on for a long time. I don't make a lot of money (E-4 in the military at that time) It's just something I've always done. I was never pressured or expected to tip. (I also brought a case for the beer fridge every weekend from the base liquor store, and in Utah that was highly appreciated ) "Damn you Gravity, you win again"
  18. That's a third person in my opinion... I know plenty of people show up every so often make a bunch of jumps and then head home before the sun sets. That's who I think of as slow Sam. Obviously this third person (lets say Dedicated Dave) is the best option, but they are very few and far between. I still believe that Freddie is a better candidate than Sam... ETA: I can count the number of weekends I haven't been on a DZ in the last 2 years on one hand. Rain or shine, sometimes I get 10 jumps in a day, others I get a single 2k foot Pop-Hop. Then I spend the rest of the day packing rigs, studying Poynters, or just fetching beers for all the old guys. I teach a S/L first jump course at least twice a month, travel to other dropzones on a regular basis, and could easily hit my 500 mark in May. But I can't get my tandem rating for another year, because the day I did my first jump I fell in love with the sport and immediately continued on to AFF the next week... "Damn you Gravity, you win again"
  19. Well... I got home from work and promptly fell asleep. When I woke up, it was time for work again "Damn you Gravity, you win again"
  20. Today might be the day I fully recover from the weekend... "Damn you Gravity, you win again"
  21. Higher capacities for VASTLY cheaper prices... also the new line of canon DSLRs also use SD. Along with 99% of electronics that we use today. SD is just standard. "Damn you Gravity, you win again"
  22. How did I totally miss that happening? On a similar note... did anyone get a picture of me on the bull with my kilt on? "Damn you Gravity, you win again"
