weegegirl 2 #1 July 4, 2005 Hahaha... playing this silly mahjong game on the computer.... and when i cleared all the tiles wand won, it gave me this prize ... i better not forget my pull cord!!!! ........ Have you ever jumped from a perfectly good airplane? Well pack your chute because you've just won a tandem sky dive jump. You pick the day, you pick the time. You will be taken high up in the sky, strapped to a professional skydiver and tossed out of a plane. Don't forget the pull cord! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Probably kept that nice warm feeling right up until they landed downwind on the runway and the guy used him to scrub off the speed. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PsychoBob 0 #7 July 5, 2005 *** wasn't too worried about the "not in control" Issue b/c I knew the instructor and trusted him. but it was WAY wierd Quote Tell me about it. Twice this weekend I was a "Tandem dummy" for a friend of mine who was getting his tandem rating and it was freaky. I didn't mind the jump or landing but I DID NOT like being in the plane with out a parachute. I just feels wrong. I made sure I kept the seat belt strap wrapped around my harness until I was completely hooked up to the tandem so I didn't accidently forget and jump with everyone else when the door opened."I'm not a gynecologist but I will take a look at it" RB #1295, Smokey Sister #1, HellFish #658, Dirty Sanchez #194, Muff Brothers #3834, POPS #9614, Orfun Foster-Parent?"
