adventurechick 0 #6 June 10, 2006 stand on top of your bed, give yourself a count and jump off wearing your rig....not quite the same, but imagination can help!! If it's too windy, go to the DZ and buy beer... you can at least talk about skydiving :o) PMS #449 TPM #80 Muff Brother #3860 SCR #14705 Dirty Sanchez #233 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NWFlyer 2 #7 June 10, 2006 Go to the dropzone anyway. Hang out. Learn something. Get to know people better. And maybe the wind will die down."There is only one basic human right, the right to do as you damn well please. And with it comes the only basic human duty, the duty to take the consequences." -P.J.

d_squared431 0 #8 June 10, 2006 At least you are not stuck at work on a Saturday. We are so f'ing busy. 14 patients less then an hour. I make time to read and post on here though TPM Sister#130ONTIG#1 I love vodka.I love vodka cause it rhymes with Tuaca~LisaH You having a clean thought is like billyvance having a clean post.iluvtofly Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brian425 0 #9 June 10, 2006 I went to Skys the Limit instead of the Ranch. Hung around, watched Team America (Durka Durka), chatted, saw some old friends, made some new ones. And now I'm getting ready to hit the City to eat. A nice day. DZ's can be fun on non jumping days. The only time you should look down on someone is when you are offering them your hand.

NWFlyer 2 #12 June 11, 2006 Nahh, it's not mean. It's teaching the facts of skydiving life. If you really really really want to jump, get your ass to the DZ and hope for the best. Clouds break. Winds die down. Rain stops. The weather people don't really know, they're just making their best guess."There is only one basic human right, the right to do as you damn well please.

sartre 0 #13 June 11, 2006 Well, his last post was this morning, so maybe he made it out to a drop zone after all....he's probably sitting around a bonfire drinking right now.

I figured the 20 mph winds would be enough to make me sit. We know about the Joe holes that magically open up. I'll be back at Sky's the Limit Tomorrow then back at the Ranch next week for the Scrambles. B The only time you should look down on someone is when you are offering them your hand.

The rest of the plane was facing me. A friend flashed me and I was the only one who could see it. People behind her couldn't see and people in front of her were looking towards me. Boobies and skydiving. A complete day of happiness.
