riggerrob 643 #12 February 3, 2005 Call me a Procrastinator Over Phorty. I turn 48 this summer, but still have not mailed in my membership. Maybe I have a silly fixation that POPS are "fun jumpers" and "belly flyers" and "boogie jumpers" while I am too busy doing tandems. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tbrown 26 #21 February 3, 2005 Welcome to Club Forty ! The company we keep just keeps getting better all the time. I'll be fifty in November, suppose it's time I got off my duff and joined POPS too. (I still remember being eighteen at the dropzone and seeing these old guys with POPS patches on their jumpsuits. Never even occurred to me I might be one of them someday.)

skydived19006 4 #23 February 3, 2005 Turned 40 three days ago 1/30. It’s interesting how your prospective changes as you have the advantage of more prospective. 15 years ago seems like such a short time to me, I can remember 30 years ago very well. It seems that time starts in a lot of ways with our birth, anything before 1965 is just “history” to me, suppose it’s the same for someone who’s 20 regarding 1985.Experience is what you get when you thought you were going to get something else.
