I miss the Blitz Magazine I used to get! This could be extremely cool!
Yes i agree, this has the potential to be pretty cool. I remember the old BlitzBasic 2 BlitzList on the Amiga, ahh good old days :)

Well, if that's what everyone wants then I'm game! :wink: I'll do anything for a free beer!

I suggest one of those 'pop out' publications, that way I can jump out of the 'mag' and scare the bejeezus out of fangbeast. Course, you'd have to throw a few sheep in there as well in order to interest him enough to open the mag in the first place! :)


@Mohawk70 : I hope it was nothing too serious and that you are recovering now?

@srod Thanks. Nothing life threatening - just multiple broken bones which kept me from being able
to get around on my own or use a computer.

Yes, the chute opened, but another less experienced jumper collided with me during freefall.

Jumping out of a plane... with or without a parachute... engaging in freefall....

I'm sorry, that is well and truly brown trouser time!

I have enough trouble jumping out of bed in the afternoon let alone jumping out of a plane! :shock:

How the hell does that sort of thing happen? I mean, you've got the whole friggin' sky to share but you still collide? :lol:

Well, I've always been the adrenaline junkie type since I was a kid. Roller coasters bore me :D
Skydiving, bungee jumping, white water rafting and that sort of thing is more to my taste. And
considering I've been doing those types of thing since I was 15 (almost 25 years) with well over
300 jumps so far, just as many bungee jumps and base jumps - 1 accident with just a few broken
bones isn't too bad.

1 accident with 1 broken neck strikes me as being quite serious! :wink:

No neck -3 ribs, both legs and a wrist with a bad concussion . but still breathing - so all in all [a] good day.
Gotta look at the positive side of things :twisted: Hell, just surviving growing up where I did is a
minor miracle in itself ...
