dthames 0 #1 January 23, 2013 The first week in Jan my wife and I were at Zhills, visiting. A fellow landed in a tall tree just north and east of the concrete bunker. My wife stepped out to see the situation and overheard this……From the ground, “Don’t feel bad, you are the 5th one this week that has landed in a tree”. From the tree, “BUT I am 2 of them”.Instructor quote, “What's weird is that you're older than my dad!” Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

popsjumper 2 #4 January 24, 2013 Quote I watched a guy land in a tree, walked over there and the girl next to me made him meow like a stuck and scared cat. Which is a good idea. You may remember the jumper in the trees up north somewhere (Pepperell?) and the city sent him a bill for $10K. If you're in the trees, somebody should throw you a cat. They get cats out of treas for free. My reality and yours are quite different. I think we're all Bozos on this bus.

JerryBaumchen 1,468 #5 January 24, 2013 Hi Pops, Quote They get cats out of trees for free. A couple of lifetimes ago I was a fire-fighter here in Portland. They always told the story of the fire crew that came & got the cat out of the tree for the old lady. Then proceeded to drive over it as they headed back to the station.

SansSuit 1 #6 January 24, 2013 Quote TO a person stuck in a tree. I was the first person to a student who decided to end her skydive about 30 feet above the ground. She was OK, but we had to wait a few minutes for other/more help to arrive. In making conversation I asked her, "Other than that, how did you like the play, Mrs. Lincoln?" It took her a second or two and then she broke out laughing. She was cool and even came back again, "to do it right".Peace, -Dawson. http://www.SansSuit.com The Society for the Advancement of Naked Skydiving Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
