When, "Oh, I skydive" works IN YOUR FAVOR

[ntrprnr 0]

When you're sitting in Temple on the holiest day of the year and the Jewish gossips surround you because you're one of a few single eligible bachelors left, and they all ask why you're not married and pumping out kids, and what you're doing with yourself, etc...

"Oh, in my spare time, I'm a licensed skydiver," buys you a LOT of room in Temple.

Of course, mom and dad have already called... "You told the Rabbi's WIFE THAT YOU SKYDIVE? What the hell is wrong with you?"

Hee hee hee...

That's a great story...I could hear the "Oi Veys"...

So I try and I scream and I beg and I sigh
Just to prove I'm alive, and it's alright
'Cause tonight there's a way I'll make light of my treacherous life
Make light!

OR.....just as bad, maybe WORSE~


Try being the non Jewish licensed skydiver going to temple on the holiest of days, greeting all the people that 'weren't to worried' 15 years ago because 'he won't be around long' and SHE will then find a 'nice Jewish boy' to settle down with and start pumping out a bunch of kids....

Makes ya feel about as welcome as a KKK Grand Dragon at the Million Man March!

At least it appears that they're still willing to wait you out instead of helping you along

I am not the man. But the man knows my name...and he's worried

That sounds like being in a room full of traps. Marry a skydiver. You'll be glad you did. I am.

Or when you are going for a job interview and your potential boss's opening statement is "So I heard you skydive?" and the rest of the interview is talking about skydiving.

I did the same thing! Well, talked about skydiving that is. I got the job. I guess litigators like that about me. By the end of the interview I'd already been volunteered to organize a summer associate skydiving outing.

Those poor summer associates won't know what's coming, but they'll feel like they have to jump to prove their mettle. Tough firm!

Damn. Sounds like the matchmakers want you barefoot and inseminating!

So where are they on the scale of, "One day he'll marry a nice Jewish girl and have 5 kids," to
"If that lazy son of mine doesn't knock up someone - anyone - and give me grandchildren soon, he's outta the will!!"

you've got to ask yourself one question: 'Do I feel loquacious?' -- well do you, punk?

Actually, mom and dad are totally awesome about it - they're like, "when it happens, it'll happen." It's everyone ELSE who thinks they should know better than me.

Mom and dad rock.

Don't laugh - that's how I got my very first skydive - I organized WebDive 2000. See the Business Week Article here: http://www.businessweek.com/bwdaily/dnflash/aug2000/nf2000088_439.htm?chan=search

What's fun now is to look back and see how badly she reported it from a factual perspective. :)

I would LOVE to see the attorneys in my firm jump, but I think they're whuffos. They give me "the look" when anything related to skydiving comes up, so now I just mostly shut my mouth. Maybe I need you to organize an outing! After all, who wouldn't want to push a bunch of lawyers out of a plane?

I was just messin'

Not surprised to hear they rock. You had to get it from somewhere, right?

Trust me, the script is the same for us Catholics. It must be a New York thing.

BTW, How did your atonement go?
