I guess that's one way to describe it...made a new friend this weekend. he is the guy who went 2,800 feet off the ground via hook and hot air ballon.
big brass on this kid
a few of us in that circle call this kind of stunt a "space monkey" which is code for "brass > brains."I guess that's one way to describe it...
Fixed that for you...
quite likely. i didn't ask him much about the suspension. however, "we" as a group have been much more accepting of harnesses in recent times. for quite a while, nobody would harness-up when suspending in an inverted position (such as from the knees). the current standard is to wear one, since it is pretty obvious that a malfunction will drop the suspended person straight down on their head and likely cause head trauma, if not also a broken neck (an issue near and dear to me). "safety third" isn't just a catchy phrase, it's a lifestyle
A hook in his ass?
we've seen guys do the "ass-tronaut" before.
No current pics, but sh!t is wild this year. Like I said, we get between an average of 10-20cm every other weekend. Snow height on 1.500m over sea is like 1.5m. But in some places like the dolomites and the southwest of South Tyrol is even more snow.
Went to western Austria last weekend...not alot of snow, but enough to ski a bit and get the gromms a lesson (Which they loved, big relief for me!). Skiied 2 days at Warth and a few runs at the t-bar slope near our hotel, which was also fairly bare and short, but nice and steep.No current pics, but sh!t is wild this year.

Generally the south of the alps get mental amounts of snow this year.
Snow Forecast for the upcoming weekend:
Deep blue = deep snow
What are we killing with such a fire?
Dude - forget the deep blue. It's the pink and deep yellow sections that are the goods. I think I might even see some red around Zermatt?!?No current pics, but sh!t is wild this year.

always loved the lyrics in the first verse of this song.28 years ago. Damn.
And when the news broke I was about to sh1t because I designed some of the electronics on that bird (OMS fuel gauging). I got a call from a manager at McDonald Douglas comparing notes...28 years ago. Damn.
and i was celebrating 4 consecutive days in a world without LRH
She was head and shoulders above the rest of the crew?
I've had calls similar to those. Never a good thing to see a plane you recognize on the news.
I love Second Empire Homes.
Clue me in. I'm in awe of that pic.
Well OK. You see how everything is symmetrical. Victorian rich folks loved symmetry. A house like this would be built on a Grand Avenue. The Walk might be gated or be fronted by an arbor and lead to a Gentle Stoop as if it stepped onto an Avenue, but not always. Think Paris or Park Avenue. The turrets usually served little purpose other then their Elegance . Flat roofs were only utilized in the south or areas without winters, DC, Richmond, Southeastern PA, Savannah GA. Wrought Iron features would have been added at some point. Most homes of this style would typically have elaborate Ironworks on the roofs and gated windows on the basement and first floor windows added in the 20's when the Linbergh baby was kidnapped. The slate on the roof would have been from the Delaware valley. Huge 18" pieces drilled and slotted like a modern shingle. Curved and arched dormers might be used in a commercial or public building utilizing this style. Most buildings in this style would be modernized in the 1920's and altered to appear as another style.
Haha, yeah, it's looking amazing in some areas.Dude - forget the deep blue. It's the pink and deep yellow sections that are the goods. I think I might even see some red around Zermatt?!?
