Airman1270 0 #1 January 4, 2006 Last spring I was rejected by one of the largest radio stations in Atlanta; Seems I didn't have the right kind of experience. I decided to wait until the program director got fired and approach the new PD and try again. Well, the old PD is doing something else, and a bunch of people got fired last month. So I called the new PD; He asked if I could get a demo in his hands. I did. I went back today to follow up. He's busy but asked me to call him tomorrow. The good news is he didn't tell me "No!" Need a job so I can jump again. And, of course, support the family, blah blah... If I can make enough money, I might eventually get some sex. (Romance is only as strong as the man's earning power.) If you believe in prayer, please add this to your list. If you work in Atlanta radio, please call me. I'm tired of running a meth lab. My wife is always complaining about the smell. It would be nice to make some legitimate money again. Cheers, Jon S. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No sensationalism, no "parachute failed', etc. Sometimes skydivers fail to modify their vocabulary to make the sport easy for non-jumpers to understand, but I'm a professional... Did the same thing in '99 after the accident at El Cap. (Tom Sanders' wife - forgive me for forgetting her name.) Reporters at the aforementioned large station also reported the event, but claimed the purpose of the dive was to "prove that base jumping is safe." I explained to my listeners that the dive was about protesting the park service's discrimination against jumpers, while allowing rock climbers and hang gliders access to the site. I also added that the reason she went in was because she was using borrowed equipment because of the the park service nazies' practice of stealing, er, "confiscating" people's gear. Cheers, Jon S.
