flyinghonu 0 #1 April 4, 2006 I just got a weird email from my dad whose office looks out over the San Francisco bay. He wrote: "Just a couple of minutes ago, I was staring out the window and I saw two funny looking objects over the bay. Then I noticed that it was two sky divers, apparently descending towards the bay, but I could not see where they went behind a building, but it looked like they were headed towards the water!" I asked him if he saw the jumpers near any of the bridges - thinking it might be BASE jumpers. Ok, SFers - see anything out there or is my Dad going nuts?

Pssstt....Cleveland played the White Sox on Sunday night. Everybody else except Toronto and Minnesota (the Canadians and the Americans who sound like them) played their first game yesterday. The Mariners lost to the Angels when it went to the bullpens. The Giants lost to the Padres 6-1. Blues, Dave"I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!"

NWFlyer 2 #6 April 4, 2006 Oh whatever. It's opening day where I am. The rest is irrelevant because it doesn't revolve around me. But I knew that ... I recall seeing the Seattle score. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
flyinghonu 0 #7 April 4, 2006 QuoteIt's opening day of baseball season... maybe they were doing a demo at the Giants game? Well...Giants are in San Diego right now (funny enough - so am I ). He thinks it was some sort of unauthorized stunt and said they were about 1/2 mile north of the Bay Bridge and he saw them at about 700 ft. He said the ceiling there is around 3300 ft. right now.

NWFlyer 2 #8 April 4, 2006 I vote for aliens. Then again, I can't be trusted because I didn't even bother to look at the schedule before I proposed the Opening Day idea. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Girlfalldown 0 #10 April 4, 2006 I didn't see it but I'm at a strange angle on the water a bit north. Is it possible it was some bad-ass Kite-surfer getting huge lift? -------------- (Do not, I repeat DO NOT, take my posts seriously.) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd bet money it was Joe Jennings/ Carl Nespoli (Sp?) related, seeing as how they were going up there this week for filming.________________________________________________________ Abbie drove me to Idaho and all I got was this lousy sigline Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
