Yeah, but there's still the issue of the jumpers having to spend more
on lift-tickets once they got there. Few would fly in an otter all
the way up there when they can make the same amount of jumps here for
less money.

No need - we just spend a few minutes describing Jinnie's spotting
ability and his date with tarmac destiny and they make a point to
learn. "Remember - there but for the grace of thinking things
through, might go you."

No, it is you having the problem - it's pretty easy to understand.
$30 Canadian equates to $24 US. $30 Canadian will get you one jump
and no change at Gananoque in Canada. The same $30 Canadian, once
exchanged for $24 US, its equivalent, will get you one jump with
change back at DZ's in the US. Hence, it costs more to jump in Canada
and the exchange rates, prove this out. Now, after all of that hard
and incontravertable evidence you still maintain that someone is poor
and to be pitied for having to pay US rates, which are provenly less,
to jump in the US then, you are the retarded one in this conversation.

For a dz you jumped at btw but that is beside the point. Can you
still say that lift tickets for $15 US, in the US are ficticious?

>Tandems seem on high end,
>using them to supplement the hop and pop program eh?

And back we go to to another price comparison between Canada and the
US - this time for tandems...

Gananoque - tandem from 13.5K advertised on their site for $235
Canadian, $195 US which is interesting because that's what they
advertise when the exchange rate paints the $235 Canadian into $189 US
- could it be the Canadians are trying to rip people off? Now, let's
look at a price for a tandem in the US.

Waller - $179 US from the same altitude. Hmmm - tandems might very
well seem on the high end but when you compare it to the price for a
tandem in Canada, it is the Candian price which inhabits this high
end. Wanna try again?

>Why not ask the DZO to join SDA 1-800-SKYDIVE scam then maybe put in
>used car lot on the side.

Well, what with Canada apparently charging more for lift-tickets *and*
tandems than they do in the US, there's no need - people will, how
you've said, "vote with their feet."

>After all U SAP DZ's is about profit
>and not the sport nes pah?

Nevermind the illustration above which suggests that Gananoque
advertises on their site tandems for $235 Canadian and $195 US when
the exchange rate actually renders this $235 Canadian down to $189 US.
It ain't the dz's here trying to dick customers out of six dollars
during a simple money exchange, nevermind their tandems still cost
more than the same in the US. Now, who between the two is angling for
the profit, eh?

I think that I certainly can "cold weather jump" as I have often in
the past but I prefer it warmer, as do most people. That said, beside
the point - I'm thinking, given how the spot on your last jump went,
that you can't spot worth a shit, nevermind thinking things through.
What you think about that, Jin?

Then tell us why you were exhorting,

"send that Otter to Moosejaw, our Imperial gallon is bigger than the
US gallon, bring yankee greenbacks but buy with cdn dollar and you get
more gas for you money USAP..."

when you've already concluded anyone showing up there would be
Canadian, considering the otter and the jumpers in it would be flying
from the US?

It's the exchange rate you little retard----still don't get it do you?
The US Dollar is stronger than the Canadian----it goes farther. Shit
you young throw money at SAPS have caused inflation down there----all
I'm saying is come give some of your greenbacks to the CSPA DZ's, save
a buck or two every jump....leave you snot attitudes at home
though----Ah hell just forget about it and send the money to Ottawa we
don't want you corrupting our youth....NOW PISS OFF AND QUIT WHINING U

J.E, says there is always a catch on cheap otter loads in Texas since
the first Otter appeared at the old Leauge City DZ. Always a catch---I
notice they didn't announce it on the web page---Have to Manifest
before 8 am, buy block tickets Jump on wensdays or thursdays, bring a

Not me, J.E. says that was his last home DZ before the stroke

Yeah right, you think cold....the Average ground temperature in that
part of Canada is often colder than anything you've seen at altitude
down there in wussy jumper land....I worked on the Transcan pipeline
just above Moosejaw once in the 70's installing insulated valves....the

Yep, the dollar does go farther. But, that still doesn't mean it's
cheaper to jump in Canada than the US. Or did you mean that when
someone is poor and to be pitied for "having to jump canadian style at
Us prices," the root of the tragedy was because the US dollar went
farther?

>Shit
>you young throw money at SAPS have caused inflation down there----

Inflation? Hell, if you take a skydive from 13.5K down at Waller and
pay $15 US and take a skydive up at Gananoque for $30 Canadian (the
equivalent of $24 US), seems to me the comparative inflation is
decidedly up in Canada and what's going on down here is *DE*flation.
So, right, brainiac, $15US jumps in a country south of a country
charging essentially $24US ($30 Canadian) is just choking in the
inflation, eh? Hell, for that matter, Gananoque offer tandems and
advertises on their site a price for a tandem several dollars more
expensive than if someone just showed up with Canadian dollars - now
who's jacking up the prices here? And then - there is your
ensdorsement of people being better off and less pitiable for jumping
in a place which is more expensive than the place they are currently
at - is that not also an endorsement of inflation or was that just a
blunder made due to mere ignorance and making guesses instead of
confirming facts before you opened your pie-hole?


>all
>I'm saying is come give some of your greenbacks to the CSPA DZ's,

No, you were saying that someone in Wisconsin was a, " poor little
USAP boy so close to Canada but paying US prices to jump out of 182
canadian style, for at least a few months each year"

I'm saying that someone who lives close to Canada and is making
"canadian style" jumps but paying US prices is making a wise choice
and your suggestion was made in plain ignorance.


>save
>a buck or two every jump....

No, as compared to what it costs to jump in the US, they would be
spening a few bucks more on every jump in Canada. The figures don't
lie.

>leave you snot attitudes at home
>though----

Well, if busting someone for being a dumbass and explaining why he is,
is tantamount to having a "snot attitude," then put the cuffs on me
but keep in mind, it costs less to jump from altitude in Wisconsin
than it does up in SK.

>Ah hell just forget about it and send the money to Ottawa we
>don't want you corrupting our youth....

What, are they trying to make the same number of jumps they do down
south and running out of money before they can?

No, not at all - I'll keep hammering the reality as long as you keep
denying it.

>JUMP CANADA, save a buck OK except at one place,

Oh ho - now it's at *one place* in Canada. This is an admission.

Now, let's look at some other places already mentioned which also are
more expensive to jump at than places in the US.

At NoveauAir - almost $30 US to altittude.

Hamilton, Ontario? Around $22.50 US to ten-five *if* you've already
paid the yearly $48 US membership dues.

Steinbach, Manitoba? Twenty one and a half bucks US to 9k.

Didsbury, Alberta? Just under $25 US will get you to 11K in their
182.

Grand Bend, Ontario? Almost $26 US will get ya to 8K.

In the US? Usually somewhere between $15-$20 gets you up to 13-14K.

Gosh, it is so pitiful to have to pay *less* than our Canadian
neighbors for a skydive...eh?

> it
>appears we have one Yuppie DZ up here

No, if price is the consideration as in, a more expensive price than
say, a certain country to the south which determines the "yuppie"
moniker, then, at least by my short list above, there are five others
beside Gananoque and I have little doubt I can find more. On that
note, several of the dz's listed above have club fees so can it be
possible? Can these skydiving clubs also be termed, "yuppie?"

>and Jerry a charter member of U
>SAP is freaked over it....

Hardly - just guiding you step by step as you step in it with every
step. I t's an unfair advantage, I admit - you see - I'm not the idiot
which you are.

>ummmm life is sooooooo good ;) Everybody else
>in Texas have a nice day Regards JPO

Ah, enjoy your blissful ignorance - it still doesn't change reality
and things continue on as they have before, no matter how retarded
your take on things are. Yes indeed - there are skydivers skydiving
and if they're not, they're looking forwards to they're next skydive
and the most amazing but entirely natural thing about this is, all
this continues on without your participation.

Yes, life is indeed good and getting better all the time.

Well I am glad at least one person on this earth is impressed with the
strong dollar just now. The only thing I know of we seem to be getting
really good buys on these days are mad cows. Come to think of it, that might
explain a few that work at DZ's.

> Shit
> you young throw money at SAPS have caused inflation down there----

I get almost as many seconds of freefall per dollar as I did in 76.
Inflation adjusted I surely get a LOT more. In terms of what skydivers can
afford now vs previous times, think about how many 40' air conditioned RV's
with roof sun decks you saw at a DZ way back when. Or people with three
rigs, paid packers, matching team jumpsuits for local competitions, etc.,
etc., etc. Skydiving's problems today are not about a shortage of money or
even of the ratio of services granted per dollar.

In fact, other than it now takes 4 hours and a pair of paralegals to help
one sign waivers and watch videos before being allowed to jump at Perris, I
can't think of too many real problems in skydiving today.

EXCEPT FOR THE DAMN SNOW OUTSIDE!

No, in this case (like many, many other cases) you are entirely wrong.
Take another look - it's right there on the web page:

For experienced jumpers:

-$15 jumps, all day, every day

What part of "all day, every day" don't you understand? Nothing there
about manifesting before 8am. Nothing at all.

How much you betting? Name the stakes. C'mon, Mister "Always a
catch" - put up or shut up. I'll bet a case of beer and a bottle of
Jack you're wrong. -$15 jumps, all day, every day, like it says. It
you don't like those stakes but are so sure of your bet, then name
some other stakes more agreeable. Unlike you, I know what I'm talking
about. Thinking I'm bluffing? Call it, numb-nuts. Call it or leave
the table if you can't make the pot right.

Yes, you. You're not the first "visitor" to be posting from the
kami58@eastex address - and probably not the last. No one, least of
all me, is buying this "snowbird from Canada" bull but if you must
maintain such a flimsy fiction, well - have a party and I'll just play
along with the requisite ridicule. First off, the original DZO is
still there, he hasn't retired, and as for who's running it - the
original DZO is. Do you even know what his name is? G'head - ask
Jinnie - over there - the dingleberry squatting back left of the
pituitary gland smelling his finger.

>ya that don't sound so good to anyone
>over 60 I betcha

Nevermind that there are skydivers over 60, some older than you,
Jinnie, out there and still jumping but of course it doesn't "sound
good to you" because it is clear the whole idea of skydiving, people
skydiving while you are unable doesn't sound to good to you.
Skydiving to you is little more than a reminder of what you had and
what you lost if you had only taken the time to think things through -
and maybe learned how to spot.

Like I said - no hook. Take a look again:

http://www.skydivehouston.com/

-$15 jumps, all day, every day

Where's the hook? Go through the website or buck up and go to the dz.
Email Price or Luminous. Call the dz or email 'em if you're too
chickenshit to show your face. You might look but you won't find
because it doesn't exist.

For experienced jumpers:

-$15 jumps, all day, every day from the fastest Super Twin Otter in
Texas!

Oh, yeah - you have to make it out of the faster Super Twin Otter in
Texas. Does that qualify as a catch? There's a straw to grasp,
Jinnie - you gonna grasp it? Think it can stand your weight?

I'm sure it is cold. I've made jumps when it was 17F on the ground
and a lot colder up at altitude. True, doesn't compare to Canada but
it was still cold. You do a lot of jumps in Canada, Jinnie? What was
the coldest you ever jumped? You wanna work the pissing contest angle
for a bit?

That's because Canadian dz's charge so much to jump 'em, few can
afford it and the planes gotta go somewhere. They charge less for
jumps down in the lower 48 so we can keep a lot more otters flying
down here than up there.

Why should anyone when we can go to Wisconsin and do Canadian style

after exchanged rates are figured they learn they've been paying

Come to Lodi.

If they ask to look at your logbooks or for you to sign a waiver,
I'll buy your jumps while you're here.

And if you buy them, I can almost guarantee you'll get *more*
freefall per $ than you used to.

Refreshing, huh?

I'm thrilled with the Euro, the greenback dollar just happens to be

I'm sure you advanced in your profession since 76 also...seems to me
the only way to stay ahead of inflation is to create it by asking for
pay raises hahahaha

Your leadership needs to get that under control, more money in
appealing to the unwashed mass's...Try to let Joe six pack back in the
sport---more jumpers, lift price drops. Canada exports more Otters a
win win for all of the North American Continent

Sloppy attitude there kiddo, it never hurts to cut costs...the problem
with U.S. buisness's in general and skydiving types in particular (it
seems to be a cut throat thing here in the U.S.
So your GM/DZO's are afraid to appear weak or easy and have associates
smell blood and turn on them so they flat don't want to pass it on to
the customer...it seems many running things are to young to have heard
the story of "killing the Goose that laid the golden egg....any change
will have to be a industry wide or Corp. effort because nobody in their
right mind is going to want to be first, not with the investment some
of them have put into their DZ's.---open up Tom, look beyond your belly
button "for the sport!"

My condolances...whats great about that though is you probably have

JLK,,, you NEED to come to this one. Its going to be one of those
once in a lifetime "small boogies". The good thing about
"roamingdropzone.com" Is that we don't have to keep going back to the
same airport. Chuckles, this is the second year for this one, so we
are ON A ROLL....and the locals still love us... IF they kick us off
because of a silly bonfire, fireworks, drunken skydivers, or something
really stupid (peanut) ,, we will go somewhere else and spend our
middle age hotel dollars the next year.

power to the skydiver
walk off your drop zone.

Yo, Jinnie - we're trying to fill the otter to send it to Dublin and
you'd probably have to pay for two slots to cover your loading but if
you can do that and come up with a couple of cases of beer to cover
for how irritating and repellant you'll no doubt be on the flight
over, we'll sign you up at manifest. We'll even let you spot a little
- we won't go because we know better but you'll still get to spot,
maybe.

So, how bout it? Wanna do it or would it be easier to denigrate the
whole idea of boogies in general since I might be there?

J.E. is off in the woods hunting hogs, has been out a few days
already...
I watching his place
When he comes back I tell him young USAPS talking bad about him
again. Maybe he talks to you maybe not.....Dunno he comes in pretty
stinky but in one good mood----probably not waste time,
tell me once he talking to young USAPS for years and it was big waste
of time, they know everything before FJC and and just get dummer with
every jump----like talking to tree stumps. Hunting hogs more fun than
trying to teach stupid young pigs ;) OK I remember to tell him. Regards

By out hunting hogs you mean he's (as represented by one of several
voices in your head) in reality squatting down back near the
pituitary gland smelling his finger. Tell ya what, "jonnie." Unless
you're also physically and neurotically disabled to the point of
travelling to a dz is severely problematical, like it is for jinnie,
why don't you get your ass to a Texas dz (since you're supposedly in
Texas). I should be up in Waller this weekend and if you show up and
flash some sort of Canadian ID (or even simply speak in come sort of
regional Canadian patois) I'll spring for a case of Molson or
Moosehead lager...and I'll eat my hat. Now, since you have said that
"old people think alike" feel free to make with the excuses - just
like they have been made, so often before.

You mean, talking *truth* about him....but then, I suppose the truth
can be bad - or at least disconcerting.

>Maybe he talks to you maybe not.....

Guess that depends on how interesting his finger smells at the moment,
eh?

alternate personality do it for him (you(.

Well, that's just him (you) talking about his (your) own experiences -
jumpers here will confirm this is indeed how it went for him (you).

Sure beats jumping, eh?

You can tell him in interpretive dance while you dance about, ripping

thats Mr. O'mally to you kid and my front name Jon not jonnie also yes
he always saying going out to get a piney wood rooter (wild hog) but
even though he's a danger junkie he might just be out in the woods
thinking or sleeping by a camp fire----or down by Koontz drinking and
chasing women...the man does what he wants,
has no schedule but come to think of it if he be doen in Koontz
drinking and chasing women that could be considered hog hunting if you
see some of the women he drags back up here by Camp Ruby

#1 Last time I jump was 1965....my first live in woman say hey mon if
we going south you need to save a bit....I was around 40 back then we
were wintering in Mexico, real cheap at the time before you U.S.
Americans cause inflation down there by throwing money around SO J.E.
knows more about modern skydiving than I do, a better Hog hunter to.

#2 You need help with spotting or have any F111 canopy questions be
nice to J.E. Maybe he go back to coaching dumb little pigs on
rec.skydiving

#3 I can talk like bush Canadian, J.E. say he like to have me around
because I can be talking like a Cajun...he work over there
off shore for a while after getting out of the Navy---if you ever see
him, never mention US Navy or you be brain dead from hearing sea story
yah----a good tip/done mess up!

#4 Don't need you store bought tea....between J.E. and me, we are well
stocked with good beer and whiskey (incase of snakebite & hog slashs he
say) Cheaper than doctor

>Now, since you have said that "old people think alike" feel free >to

I agree with J.E. 100% on most things, he views America much like he
not from it----Telling to many damn sea storys though by gum. His
skydiving storys sound pretty dumb also-but it's always funny

Truth? I think you to young to have experiance to know what truth
really is. J.E. say dumb young USAPS throw everything old out
and now they loose a lot, mixture should be mix old in with new and
make strong like cement....He praying one time and I ask "what you pray
for?" That all them Sputnicks fall out of the sky and batterys begin to
fail so young skydivers have to go back to old ways before all is lost!
"What about that zp stuffs?"
Sooner or later the market will price the average skydiver out of
that----go back to Canada and buy up all old F111 canopys & material,
we be ready. Then he laugh all crazy like-hard to tell when he joking
and when he is being serious sometime....He was old USPA you know,
before weak skydivers came along now its
USPA2000 to him----Now he calling it USAPS since I tellem about
how we joking about you in Canada ;)

No he always tell a wopping big hunting story, the man never deals in
small-damn hog had to be 350/400 pounds with 8 inch tusks
had to kill him with a knife because hog jerk .44 out of his hand, mule
run off with saddle rifle and dogs also get scared and run off so he
had to kill it with a knife, same story 99% of time except one time the
hog got his knife away and he had to beat it to death with a tree limb
. Same way with fishing story, big 75 or maybe 150 pound catfish attack
the boat etc etc etc

He/you? you got some paranoids sonny.....WHICH IS IT?
him or me? Dang may be I listen to his storys to long. he is a year or
two behind me in age but Chrismatic, plus we agree on how misued modern
things are....people making themself helpless using it some to
much....Maybe I just knowing him to long---but I am me
thank god their is only one J.E. or Canada would be part of Texas
the man has some crazy ideas

Hell, I suppose if they were in Canada doing Canadian style at Candian
prices they couldn't afford it. So, "jonnie" - since you made your

1965 - "around 40 back then" - and here we are, fourty years later
when you've already mentioned you were 69. Umm...perhaps you meant
you're eighty? Or do you mean to say that you were "around 40" when
you were in your late 20's. Pretty dumb slip, Jin - but very much in

Last Official skydive 1965, you didn't see when I talk about the

outlaw jumps because we jump on a private grain farm and other various
places, using borrowed aircraft---Like Ludwig say why we need this damn

Oh yeah because it's not the act of the jump but it all comes down to

Now, do you suppose that if there was a choice between making the same
skydive at a dz where it's more expensive and a dz where it's cheaper,
to advocate the more expensive location might very well be considered
stupid?

I suppose they salt the busier roads up in Canada but then, I suppose
what with the prices for jumping being higher than they are in
Wisconsin, they may as well use the salt elsewhere. When you talk of
the "Moosejaw hit and chug club," Jinnie, you're just making it up and
you could salt every path, road, and highway up there with the salt it
would take to buy into your fantasies.

Oh, no - no exit tax, just higher prices than in Wisconsin where if
there is an exit tax, which there is not, it's not enough to make it
more expensive than jumps from altitude up in Canada.

Well, given your advocacy of jumping in a place more expensive than a
place where it's cheaper, there is no we working here but *you* -
about as stupid as it gets. Then there's the idea of posting from the
same email address as you have before while making the pretense that
you're someone else and imagining that anyone would buy into the
charade - stupid is too mundane an adjective to describe such a thing.

Actually, just because I point it out to you when you're wrong and
explain to you does not in any way suggest an unhappy state. Call it,
"some kind of sore ribs from laughing really hard person." Slip is
showing, Jinnie - it's a very common response on your part for when I
illustrate just how you've stepped in it that you come back with a
suggestion of unhappiness.

>Not enjoy life at all.

I dunno about that - not me making up a different life to display and
to preach from on the usenet.

>Rush around, rush around, put numbers down because thats all you
>got---tsk tsk tsk,

Hell, who was it adding numbers all over the place, ostensibly
representing the *number* of times you got out of bed in Canada in a
ridiculous attempt to corellate the figure into skydives in Canada
(and screwing up the math). Wasn't me, either considering Wisconsin
jumpers as poor and to be pitied due to the *number* of dollars they
would be paying as compared to skydivers in Canada.

>you waste money by jumping kid,

Not as much as the skydivers in Canada, it seems.

>don't not seem you
>enjoying it,

Naw, it gets better and better. Weather was dodgy this past weekend
but I still got to make jumps...$15 US a jump. Seems to me you
weren't seeming to enjoy what little life you had left posting on the
usenet from the snuffwad moniker - to the point of attempting to get
others to believe that Jinnie and Jonnie weren't all being typed from
the same hand, nevermind the same email address..

>ush rush rush---gots to have another number quick quick
>pack this parachute-I pay you

I do seem to remember Jinnie (you) also admitting to have used a
packer. As for rushing, that was kind of a rushing around to get up
in the air on your last jump, what with having no time to practice it
on the ground or think things through. Kinda rushed the spot as well,
given the struggle to get back to the lz and the landing a good three
to four hundred yards from the building at Groundrush.


>J U SAP in in hurry -rush rush rush, give
>me the numbers ok 38,769
>& 3/4 and some ice cream...

Is this a case of you putting numbers down because that's all you got
(and maybe a bowl of icecream)?

>Lets see, you pay dues, you pay for pack,
>you pay somebody to spot no wonder you unhappy kid.

Oh yeah, sure - and skydives in Canada don't pay dues - maybe because
of the money crunch what with higher jump prices. Oh wait - seems
CSPA also charges dues - $82 Canadian yearly (just under $66 US).
Now Keeping in mind that dues in the US are yearly $49 US, seems the
Canadians are paying a good twenty five percent more than the jumpers
in Wisconsin for their own dues.

Sure, I'll pay for a packer if I don't have time to pack it up before
I'm up again but ya know - there's packers in Canada, too. I suppose
they'reall packing and the people who might use them are all working
towards a loftier purpose, eh?

As for "pay somebody to spot," where do you get that? I mean, even
if this were so, which it is not, do you suppose that jumpers in
Canada are paying more for however the spot gets to acquired? The
price of their lift-tickets suggests this.

>If your in that big
>a hurry why you don't pay somebody to make your jump to?

You're slip is showing again, Jinnie - just because someone might have
made more jumps you ever made (in probably half the time) does not
mean they weren't moving in anything other than a liesurely pace.

Now, don't freak out misterkami58ateastex - but did you know that
there are poor Canadian skydivers stuck having to do Canadian style
jumps at Canadian prices when there are skydivers in Wisconsin doing
the same style jumps at prices twenty to fourty percent less?

I admit, it does take more nerve than I can imagine to get things
wrong so often on such a variety of things, all the while maintaining
such an amazingly ludicrous and flimsy fiction despite the regular
holes being regularely punched in every argument and assertion you
make.

>Like Ludwig say why we need this damn plane? Everybody farting around

Regular Dukes of Hazard, eh? Mounties with red, spinning lights on

field, eh? Tell some more.

So you'd like to imagine but only because it makes you feel better
about the time when you weren't in the straits that you are now and in
so doing, lend legitimacy to yourself. Clear as day. You've often
run the same parallel in such diverse areas as the military, business,
the economy, and even in skydiving - nevermind the various entities
and sub-entitiess which administrate within the pasttime. Classic
case of, "It was better when I was happening but now that I'm not,
it's not either and it's by far much worse now than it ever was."

That is correct (for once) but please explain the significance of the
numbers, 75 and 9.

Likely not. I would say "jonnie" actually has zero - unless "he"

you mangaed to squeak in those 300.

I don't think you've been sullied by any dz at all - actually,
viceversa.

Canadian snow is brown, lumpy, and stinky?

Ah, that's where you're wrong because, you see, fun is what you make
of it. You find great fun in pretending to be someone other than you
are not and that's fine if you think it's fun and all but given a
choice between skydiving with my friends or hanging with say, an
imaginary friend, I'll take the former.

>always in a hurry

In summer, where ever Ludwig has his plane, on a members property it is
expected, to keep mountie interfearance down for our one or two un
official jump partys a year---I am in Texas for the winter, they
calling us Canadian snow birds---not jump here, refuse to support U SAP
system, plus costOF RECREATION is high in U.S. So we hunt and fish in
it's stead---J.E. is our guide, lucky for us-he knows cheap way to go
because we are trying to get by on $500 Canadian a month until late

Nice excuse but it doesn't fly because, you see - there are dz's here

As far as skydivingis concerned, the cost is higher in Canada.

Nonsense, your existance here is merely an attempt to fool people and
"stir things up," since when you were posting as the snuffwad, you
kept on getting pasted for steppinng it it. Somehow you concluded
that if you could change your name, you could continue on in a similar
vein without having your opinions and assertions torpedoed.
Unfortunatey you tried this in a very ham-handedly transparent
fashion, were discovered for who you reallyu are almost immediately
(the suggestion that it was cheaper to jump in Canada than the US was
a dead giveaway) and now you're stuck having to pretend to be Canadian
and making shit up, which you will, as sure as the sun rises in the
east, contradict yourself or slip up in some way or another (the being
40 in 1964 and 69 years old now, as a prime example) and the ridicule
you hoped to avoid is yours to bask in, just as it has been in the
past. Your name has changed but the song remains the same.

You can drive less to Beaumont or Gladewater and bring back to
skydiving that which you imagine has been lost or thrown away.

Excuses, excuses - just day trip it and get a clue on how things

Hell, you waste more money (20-40 percent more) going to a higher
priced dz in canada.

I never said, suggested, or even intimated that I was or even thought
I was somehow important. You just got a bug up your ass because since
I take the time to call you an idiot when you're idiotic, ridicule you
when you're ridiculous, and the gravest sin - skydive when you are
unable - this to you translates to me thinking I'm important. As for
satisfying interest, well - doctors agree that laughter is good for
the heart and with the non-stop hilarity I expect would be the outcome
of you attmepting your act live - it's bound to put years on
everybody's lives.

As I've told you before - flying camera is one of the things I've done
before and consider myself half-way competent in doing (no NJ's, knock
wood bigtime) but skydiving has many, many disciplines - I'm not a
master in any of them but I've enjoyed every taste I've had and look
forwards to everything the sport has to offer down the line.

not in U.S. thats for sure, young citizens that live near the border
will cross to slum with USAPS most are looking for and checking out
2nd hand modern gear to maybe bring back & jump in Canada. Say U SAP DZ
is pretty fine but expensive, maybe thinking the only way to afford
jumping at southern twin dz's is to work in America where everybody
seems to be overpayed. So we say "just order used gear from DZ rigger
down there
and stay up here where people and prices are real---oh no not for kids
they want to follow the excitement even if it is not real, just some
talk em up. J.E. say "Well you cain't keep a kid down on the Farm you
dumb Canuck, let them go get skint and learn their own lessons on
American
ecconomics! Sackalay this how you say? SUCKS

> I don't believe you. I think you are making shit up.

And everybody over 65 up here thinks your in denial, except J.E. He
just say, Jerrycul is just part of the inflation problem around Texas
DZ's, the boy makes good money durning the week-enough to pay for his
own jumps but like a spolit young woman he wants to be carried, not pay
her way or work it off on her back---let other people pay the
way---students, novices and the unaware so now you want canada to chip
in yes?- We guess you want us to come down hold you coat and open doors

Oh yeah about Beaumont, J.E. said web page was not working last time he
checked....don't even know if it exists anymore but if flu season die's
down---Flu is pretty bad along coastal citys in Texas right
now....people living jammed up like rats down there he says but maybe
if the Flu reports go down we drive over to Beaumont on weekend to eat
at the Olive Garden its only 2 or so hours away and then go by on hwy
90 look in old city airport and check on dz coming back....Maybe see
you there kid...let you waste some gas also....not wasting our gas just
to look at gay young skydiver...We are come for night out and dinner in

Well, what with Wisconsin's lower prices, I can see why.

Oh, sure - new, "modern" gear (or even second hand) is never available
in Canada, uh uh.

Just not as expesnive as their neighboring dz's north of the border.

As opposed to jumping at Canadian dz's where everyone seems to be
overcharged.

Right - real---expensive - a good 20-40% more expensive than US
lift-ticket prices.

>oh no not for kids

I admit, $15US lift-tickets (every day) are exciting if you're used to
paying over $24US ($30 Canadian) for the same ride to altitude.

But especially if it IS real - which it is.

Hell, that happens the moment they pay for a lift-ticket in Wisconsin
and realize they're paying a good 20-40% less than they were north of
the border. There's a lesson here - lift-tickets are less expensive


down here than up there.

>Sackalay this how you say? SUCKS

I don't doubt it - word gets back that jumps are cheaper down in
Wisconsin, gonna be a lotta bitchy Canadian skydivers - might start
demanding the dz fork over for a keg more regularely to square things.

Ah, yes - a veritable line around the trailer, trailing off into the

as back around your cerebral cortex.

Not at all - as a matter of fact, I help keep prices down. It isn't

Because, as you know, it's not so much the skydive and it's not so
much the money, but it is how the money is acquired which tells the
skydiving tale, eh?

Naw, that ain't true - no one who ever paid for video did so unaware
that they would be paying for video.

>so now you want canada to chip

Well, they could drop their prices twenty to fourty percent and maybe
pay their camera guys less if you're looking for parity - I mean,
student video is more expensive in Canada than in the US.

Well, "you" waste it up there what with the higher prices for
lift-tickets - I mean, if you were wasting money down here, at least
you'd be getting more jumps and more altitude out of your money
wasting.

>Only because OF exchange rate,

Oh, so now it's an "Only because," instead of "it's without
exception." This is a slip. Let's take it further - just this time
in pre-schooler terms:

No, not only. Pay attention.

Lift ticket to altitude at Gananoque $30 CD
Lift ticket to altitude at Waller $15 US

One Canadian dollar = .81 US dollars.
One US dollar = 1.23 Canadian dollars.

Lift ticket to altitude at Gananoque expressed in US dollars - $24 US.
Lift ticket to altitude at Waller expressed in CD dollars - $18 CD

An exchange rate expresses what one unit of one currency translates to
in relative units of another currency.

Now, imagine both dz's were across town from each other but each
retained their current, lift-ticket price.

BOTH IN CANADA
Gananoque - $30 CD
Waller - $18 CD

BOTH IN US
Gananoque - $24US
Waller - $15US

No doubt you will be unable to understand this illustration. As it
was in skydiving, so it goes with simple multiplication and division,
your learning disability runs mighty deep.

>you & U SAPS like you are not allowed to
>work the DZ's mon cher it remains cheaper than U.S of A. ANYTHING

No, you're wrong - entirely wrong. I *might* not be able to work
there unless I worked out some sort of worker's permit thing, since
I'd be a foreigner, but as for people "like me," -say there's a video
geek up there who shoots students. Keep in mind I shoot students
maybe twice a year but for the sake of the argument, I'll mine the
"like you are not allowed to work the DZ's" angle.

Student video at Ganaoque - $95 Canadian
Student video at Waller - $69 US

One Canadian dollar = .81 US dollars.
One US dollar = 1.23 Canadian dollars.

Student video at Gananoque expressed in US dollars - $75 US.
Student video at Waller expressed in CD dollars - $85 CD

BOTH IN CANADA
Gananoque - $95 CD
Waller - $85 CD

BOTH IN US
Gananoque - $75US
Waller - $69US

So, as you might see if you opened your eyes, even student video in
Canada is more expensive than in the US. Now, imagine how much of a
kickback the Canadian videogeek gets for his efforts? Or do you
believe that maybe the Canadian dz keeps more of that pie? They
certainly ain't kicking it back to the student.

Naw, just a reasonable familiarity with what you like to say, how you
say it, and from where it is said. Walther was more eloquent than I
when he explained a leopard can't change its spots.

First? So, now the legitimacy in this regard is rendered by how the
race went - right in line, Jinnie. Your slip is showing. Now, as to
who came "first," paleolithically speaking, I think it's an unknown
but it's a fair guess that when fire and booze was first realized,
it's safe to say that there were others, both younger and older who
observed while whoever was "first" got too drunk and caught his ass on
fire.

Well, I never said talking to you was indicative of smart, especially
since I got to dumb it down so much, but as for foolish - it is indeed
a foolish waste of time but the payback is, 1) how funny your lines
of reasonings become, 2) I know that every post you make addressing my

abusing anyone else, and 3) between your across the board inanity and
my point by tedious point inanity in response to yours, less patient

Which is cool and it happens but as you have "grown up," it is kinda
arbitrary to conclude you're grown up enough to no longer skydive and
at the same time, feel yourself to be legitimate in complaining about
and bemoaning the state of skydiving, as you have no accurate frame of
reference to complain from and certainly have no desire to make any
positive changes within skydiving towards what you consider to be for
its better.

And, as you know, dropzones cannot exist in this material plane of
existance unless they have a presence on the web. You could call
them.

As opposed to out in the woods where maladies are more limited more to
scourges of the venereal and inbreeding variety. Remember the Polk
county cleft-palate outbreak of 98? God's wrath.

Right - be sure to let everyone at Beaumont know when you feel safe
from the flu - maybe you can be honorary S&TA for the day - no wait -
that would be ridiculous.

Where the tire touches road will be whether you let anyone know or
just sneak on out. Moot for now as it is still entirely supposition
and there's always time for excuses between now and the end of
flu-season.

Actually, I didn't - I pretty much suggested price trumps color on
used gear.

>and the other
>because of gear fear....

Actually, I commented that he might drop the price because of the ROL
given that with the popularity of freeflying, and since he was
targetting it towards new jumpers looking for their first rig, that
the ROL would not be much of a selling point - given it was likely
that if a new jumper bought it, it would be probably be re-fit to a
deployment system more agreeable to 3 axis flight.

>"Oh no, price is good but it has ROL,

Actually, price is good but it would be better if it dropped a little
because of the ROL.

>Oh no
>Sabre is to small for me...

Actually, Saber to large for me and too many for me - already got one
- don't need a 4th canopy.

>ohhhhh noooo one rig has nylon lines---it
>sounds like crew rig oh oh oh what shall I do?"

Actually, I suggested a new jumper might be better off with dacron.

>You want me to go wake
>J.E. up? HE TELL YOU QUICK hahahahahaha

No need - you're channeling him just fine - anyway - you just did.

Carefull - you do know that there is a Canadian dz, and may well be
more than one, strongly associated with the association in the United
States.

>we Canadians are trying to sell you
>Americans back your shitty old Sabre's----

As opposed to shitty new Falcons? Sounds to me like the guys trying
to move some older gear that he isn't jumping and/or needing anymore.

>Don't make me go wake Jimmy
>up,

Not possible, the dinglberry's been in a veritable coma for as long as

>he's already been on you for running ROL's down...

Well, you pitched a hissy about it but "on me?" Hardly. Just the
same old rhetorical crap you spout when an aspect of your short time
in the sport has its warts mentioned - thus rendering the tenuous
self-affirmation that much more unstable. Nothing new there. One of
my favorite ironies is that I could never run S/L down, for example,
when compared with how you ran it down by ending up where you are
today in relation to participation in the sport. Yep, a big hairy
wart (actually, several) all over S/L and I never said a thing about
it. All you.

>want me to ask
>him how far it is to Waller or about those no fine print involved $15
>Otter tickets?

Feel free. If he (you) knew what you're talking about the answer will
follow the lines of, 46 miles as the car drives from the center of
downtown to the building at Waller and there is no fine print,
anywhere, regarding the very cool price for lift-ticets out there.
Any other answer is fantasy - though, probably more comforting for
you.

>HOT DAMN we be up all night then and he will be grumpy
>all day tomorrow-----OK nevermind Regards JPO

Yo, Jinnnie - how 'bout those high prices for lift-tickets and video
in Canada and what's up with Canadian dz's being affiliated with the
association in the United States? I thought you said USAP was a US
thing but it seems Canada's embraced the idea. No big deal - just
curious to hear your spin on such an inconvienent reality.

**Its a good beginner rig for a person in the right weight

Which is still more than the 50-70 miles you were quoting to dz's

No, I gained weight drinking student beer & eating DZ food...Those
windless blistering hot July and August days down in the coastal region
told on me....if I could get 5 or 10 miles of indicated wind it was
alright
But with the windsock hanging the F111 material couldn't handle my
landing weight by itself at just over 1 to 1---the split slider solved
that...A F265 is flat flying, the slider let the lines spread out &
made it fly way further, had Mike sew hang loops on both front & rear
risers---I could really hose a load BIG TIME, not just novices
either....I've hosed Mad Dog
and Christi both plus half of the old deguello at one time or
another---I lived for that kind of shit, you know "LETS SEE WHO HAS TO

I can understand having them on the front because holding front can
get tiring after a while but on the rears? Hanging the rears is
pretty much effortless - especially so with regular risers - what was
your problem?

Well people got wise to my way's....I hadda hose myself and were
talking about some distance here....miles. So they tried to be tricky
and say OK you go first in case it was a short rather than a long, I
was so skilled at this shit I cud suck them out on the upwind
turn....even with a flat flying canopy like the Falcon, splitting the
slider amnd leaving the brakes set and making long looping turns with
risers wasn't enough...ya might have to hang rear risers all the way
back....Shit I'd fly straight down the FM roads around the Waller DZ
just below the telephone lines trying to get the last bit of lift off
pavement thermals----I cud fly that bitch like a power glider, then cut
laterally over the DZ fence, caught my keds on the top strand once and
did a gainer right into my canopy which went into a down plane about 15
feet off the grass---that gave the people I had been smoking great
pleasure, as did the down wind landing that tore the butt out of my
jumpsuit that came about because I rode it so far, there was no
altitude left for a turn....Geeze some of Deguello was standing over by
the fuel tank in the loading Area just howling....Hated to walk, even a
extra 10 ft. but liked to see others walking and cussing---thats a mean
old man thing

Well you see I was so popular at the time for my fuk you skygods
attitude,
our zoo formations were the biggest group on the Otter and protocol
required the leader of the biggest formation had the right to spot &
exit first... Get up by the Pilot ya fricking stuck up fancy lads, quit
your damn whining. If some out behind our formation skygod 4-way had
managed to get a seat near the door I just covered the light up with my
hand and leaned out the door...Had big hands cover both lights and palm
the Left/Right rocker switch at the same time...
I'd give the pilot a left, left then long right even if he was on
course
just to confuse people...Their little ole geeky necks would be
stretched up trying to look out the round porthole windows but leaning
out I could see a rooftop or something else they could identify coming
up and I'd simply move the Otter over where they couldn't see it from
where they sat----Shit I was an Artist at the hose. Got to where
Christi and her little RW Queen buddy's would begin yelling GO ROUND,
GO ROUND before I even gave the cut signal 0~;-> Snuffy the MoJo man

>#2 This pin thing you got is in your head,

The reasoning I'm working is simply - a pin is designed to come clear.
Pinchecks limit this occuring before it is desirable. Pins can be and
have been dislodged by people sitting, leaning, and/or pressing their
rig against other people, airplane bulkheads, ect. A pincheck before
jumprun and after the jumper has moved from their sitting, kneeling,
leaning position they were in on the ride to altitude and have since
readjusted from prior to the door coming open and movement towards
exit is a good idea, it doesn't take long, will likely catch the
possibility that a pin has been shifted on the ride to altitude, and
likely lessen the possibility of a rig coming open prior than desired.
Limiting this check to just prior to boarding is your decision - just
as having a check prior to jumprun is anyone else's. I'm betting the
check in the airplane will limit the open container in the airplane a
lot more than the alternative.

> its been checked twice and

Sure, checked once prior to being put on - good - not putting on a rig
with a wayward pin. Checked in the loading area - good - not boarding
while wearing a rig with a wayward pin. Sit down in the aircraft,
lean against whatever, pin stays put or it doesn't. Hell, I checked
this rig twice earlier - no way it's coming open as I sling myself out
the door. So, again - how many times you seen a rig come open and
someone get swept out? How many horshoes you had? What happened to
that rig check in the loading area - thought everything was right?
Hell, you knew it was right but the pin apparently knew different.

>do you need a pacifier to suck on,
>need a ride
>to the nearest mental health unit? Most likely your closing loop will
>break before a pin will fall out...

Which is something else to eyeball, as long as you're taking a look.
As for loops breaking, yep - happens, it's rare. As for pins being
shifted out - it happens, it's rare. But what's rarer still - the
idea that once you've checked it in the loading area, there's nothing
that'll shift it between then and jumprun. Nothing at all.

>you have self doubt, this goes
>deeper than gear gear I'm afraid..

Get real - this has little to do with doubt, gear, or even fear - this
has entirely to do with what I've seen, heard, and learned over time
spent in the sport longer than you (not a lot, I admit), and learned
from a helluva lot more experienced (and way smarter) people than you.
Comes down to this - you don't wanna believe a pin can be shifted out
in the airplane after it's been verified to be right on the ground -
you just don't have a clue and of that, with this mere example alone,
I have no doubt.

>
>#3 About this standing up in the Otter. You can do that? What are you,
>a fricking midget?

Standing up in terms of feet on the deck and bent forward, of course.
Kinda anal of ya - should I have said, "crouched?" Just the same,
unless you got stasis rapped around that pin and that loop and that
bridle and that pc - stasis enveloping them all from the check on the
ground until after you've shifted from sitting or kneeling or leaning
to *standing* (in a leaned forward sort of fashion which makes no
difference to the point at hand at all but is, of course, mentioned
here because the dinglberry's getting kinda anal again...) then the
possibility exists that the pin might have been shifted from where it
was when it was checked in the boarding area. Not saying it *will* be
shifted or that it's even *likely* to be shifted but it is enough of a
possibility and balanced with how freaking simple of a no brainer it
is to have someone check it out for you if you're so inclined, that to
just blindly assume that it can't be moved at all between the time of
the check on the ground and after you've shifted from whatever resting
position you might be in on the ride to altitude, is a stupid
assumption. Another bet which I'm sure you won't take up - as ever,
the stakes are a case of beer and a bottle of Jack but if you don't
like those stakes but care to take up the bet, name stakes more
pleasing to you - I'll bet you the aforementioned case and bottle that
I can put on a rig, tight loop and all, and I can move it in such a
away while leaning in an airplane against a bulkhead to where I can
pop that pin out in 10-20 minutes but likely in less time than that.
ANd so goes the refrain - put up or shutup.

>
>#4 Never fear Snuffy is on your case,

Right - the same dingleberry who's seen open containers sweep people
out the plane and who's had several horshoes - despite taking care of
business and making sure that pin was seated before he boarded.

A tight closing loop, the force of the tray flaps pushing upwards and
keeping the pin flap firmly tucked with at least one or maybe two pin
checks before boarding limit the prematures----If you could set still
on the climb, ya wouldn't think it was coming out all the time---See

Sure, but the force required is a fair bit less than the force
available. That said, a similar but minimal force can and has been
applied to a pin or bridle while sitting, moving, and/or shifting and
a similar minimum force required to unseat the pin will still unseat
the pin, whether it's after throwing out or shifting in an airplane.
If you can imagine your pin having moved for whatever reason between
the moment when the pin was stowed while packing and when you check
over the rig before you put it on, it's not so far out to imagine the
pin having possibly been shifted between the moment of the pincheck in
the loading area and when you have moved from where you were riding to
altitude. If this were not something to consider then why bother with
a pincheck at all after the moment when the pin is first stowed while
packing?

This is true but then, a check post shifting from sitting, leaning,
moving to kneeling or standing sometime prior to exit will limit it
that much more and a check inthe boarding area will not, without fail,
limit the pin from being shifted due to some movement in the cabion.

>If you could set still
>on the climb, ya wouldn't think it was coming out all the time---

Which would be fine if you could board without leaning your rig
against anything or anyone and then without moving, transfer yourself
from that state of restin the cabin out immediately into freefall.
The reality is that this is not reality as you have to move from the
boarding area into the airplane and once in the airplane you have to
sit down where there are other people who will likely move and press
against bulkheads which your rig will likely press against. No one
automatically concludes that their pin has come out unless their
container has obviously fallen open but they do get a pincheck to
verify that all is still as it should be in an environment where
containers have before and can become open.

>See
>what you get for not packing your own girly boy?

No horsehoes yet (knock wood)? Wait - I do pack for myself so it's
not absoutely the packer which brings about how necesarry the pincheck
might be but maybe the environment surrounding the rig after it's been
closed which might determine how appropriate a pincheck might become?

>Doubts "is it closed?
>I didn't pack
>it so didn't notice, is it closed?

Ah, but I was the one wearing it and quite possibly aware when it had
been bumped or leaned against or otherwise had something up against
the cover over the pin.

>oh my god, ohmygod!"

Stand clear everyone - Jinnie's spurting bigtime! Naw, more of a,
"Yo-check my pin."

>Then first
>thing you know its 3500 ft AGL and the belts come off

Actually, belts come off usually a good deal lower than that but just
the same, that doesn't mean anyone's immediately shifting around at
that moment - that comes later - though, I have certainly seen someone
board, sitdown, and pop their pin.

>and here you are
>crawling up and down the isle way like a spolit poodle going "my pin,
>my pin IS IT COMING OUT? SOMEBODY CHECK MY PIN boo hoo hoo!"

Naw, more along the lines of people shifting, checking their own gear,
shifting to their feet prior to moving towards the door and making
contact with their rigs against something else. Then it's a matter
of, "Yo - give my pin a check."

>You're
>Pathedic Jerry

Let's see, who's the dingleberry who's had multiple horshoes in this
conversation? Who's the one in this conversation who assumes the pin
has no choice but to stay put once it's been checked in the loading
area yet, has also related antedotes where containers have come open
in the airplane? You're a dumbass so in love with his dingleberry
line of reasoing that not even past experience and hard reality makes
a difference when it comes to thinking things through.

Well thats changed since the mid 90's, GU/DZ's rules used to be pretty
similar. Helments and belts on till 3500'....specially if you had
students or tandem passengers aboard. The average S&TA's reasoning was

Actually, it's called casus conspicio. They don't teach you that in
SL? Pretty much explains why you ain't jumping anymore.

Seatbelts are always a good idea - I once forgot to take mine off and
at around 8K the pilot lost the #2 and then the kingair, rolling and
stalling it a couple of times for a few thousand feet before he got it
feathered and under control. People were slinging all over the cabin
but I stayed put - just a brain fart on my part but it worked out.
Still, given a choice between having to get out at a say, 1500 ft. all
of a sudden with my seatbelt still attached or unattached, I'll choose
the latter - most places seem to allow the seatbelts to come off at
around a thousand to 1500 - basically in the area where a reserve has
a comfortable amount of time to do what it's supposed to. As for
pinchecks, I don't bother with it in the airplane until I'm a few
minutes out from jumprun.

I mussta slept through that if Allen Flynn mebtioned it at all....FJC
was
a dual class, ya seperated and went S/L or AFF after it finished...I
chose S/L cause it was a few thousand dollars cheaper overall. I'm
surprised any JM mentioned it to a AFF titty baby at all, I mean they
had already shown an inclination not to climb out alone and hang strut
already
by being willing to pay extra to exit with a JM gripping harness on
both sides tsk tsk tsk...You reckon this has something to do with your
inability to shake that raving case of pinnis fixation ya got Jerry?

Well at least we agree on something kid. And I think its mighty big of

Allen taught your class? You know, he's been known to do a tandem or
too in his time. Saw him last month up in San Marcos and he helped us
execute a television set - even let us plug it in to his trailer as we
assembled the firing squad. With us at KittyHawk too.

I think with most people it comes down to money balanced against bang
for buck. I didn't know shit about skydiving (feel free to snip and
use for comfort) and figured I'd do a S/L the first time out and later
get into freefall becuase I guessed that was how things worked but
what I wanted to try was the freefall - that seemed really exciting.
I get there and a buddy who had made his FJ the week before cued me in
to the existance of options - either doing S/L, a tandem, or doing
this AFF thing and explained the differences. S/L was the cheapest
but I had the money and and the idea of freefall *and* being able to
land my own canopy was the ciritical factor in the decision.


>You reckon this has something to do with your

Naw, recognizing and understanding circumstance which have bitten
others in the past has more to do with the idea that a pincheck in the
airplane is worthwhile.

Which can and has dislodged pins in the past but it ain't ever any
sorta scene - if someone's reach down there it's simply a matter of
shifting out of the way and helping them to get the seatbelt if
possible. Then, I suppose what with your rampant fear of cg being
balanced on the head of a pin, someone leans just a little, one way or
the other, and you're in squawk full mode like a damn siren, "We're
all gonna die Aaaaaaaagh!!!"

Yeah, it was his first class I think, he was working on his JM/I Quall
Card
and needed to teach a class....Allens pretty cool for a ex Airforce
guy.
Not defensive at all...he started sport jumping while in the Airforce,
way back when no branch of the service really approved of civilian
style jumping. The boys got balls, I saw him jump a 87 or 97 sq ft
canopy~cain't remember but it was small at Leauge City airport in 92 or
93....we were out by the peas and somebody said "here comes Allen" I
looked up and he was smoking thru 1500 ft with what looked like a
pillow case over his head. not straight down but a very steep angle...I
only had 30 or 40 jumps by then so it looked pretty bad. At about 500
ft I could see he was slightly into the brakes with his legs and feet
together had chin turned down peering intently at a spot in the
grass.....had a big stupid grin on his face and I'm thinking "shit I
cain't watch this" was thinking about turning away but his fall was so
fast I thought about it to long and he nailed the landing....couldn't
believe my eyes...I mean it looked like the parachute wasn't flying
even though the cells were inflated and the itty biddy thing looked
like a plastic toy chute it was stretched so tight but rather in
freefall it was coming down so damn fast. Good thing the spot was good
cause he wasn't making much headway forward........it looked allmost
straight down~~~ Scary ;)
