Try these ....

I was trying to cleat the VG line when the downtube buckled. :o

Its glide performance was 10% less than I had expected. :problem:

The situation was a disaster. :shock:

Aha ... I think I see your problem.

You should switch to decaf. It could change your life. :thumbup:

Also, it's long been accepted that yelling "FIRE" in a crowded theater may be punished by law in spite of the First Amendment...

Preflight, Hangcheck, Know you're hooked in.

Hey Bob, I'm a little confused here.

What's the difference between yelling "FIRE" in a crowded theater and telling hang glider pilots to "Preflight, Hangcheck, Know you're hooked in."?

Is it 'cause you probably hafta wait longer for your victims to get smashed to bloody pulps and maybe settle for fewer of them that makes the latter case OK?

Or is it just 'cause in "self regulated" hang gliding you can kill anyone you feel like without ever having to worry about anyone ever doing anything about it?

I know you are. Many of us have tried to help, but you're not responding to our efforts. I suggest professional help.

But it's so much less expensive - and more fun - just to drive everyone else insane. Win/win.
