RevJim 0 #26 August 23, 2004 To be a monkey is something do desire, but even I know well enough that if I'm not hangin', I'm not sportin'. Someday I shall be able to hang with Mono Uno. Until that day, I'll happily watch from afar. With my mouth SHUT.It's your life, live it!

leroydb 0 #30 August 23, 2004 wrong choice... you didn't get the whole story... but that's ok, I guess you didn't want it... FYI, the guy that gave my my monkey name confirmed it with SM1 and I have the PM saved. Also I have a verbal confirmation with another unnamed Skymonkey. So whatever, you just showed your rear end. In the future do not be so quick to judge, for god is the only one that can do that. I am truley sorry my "dumb ass" has yet offended you again and again. I do leave the option up to you if you ever want to be friends again. And is "I feel painfully sorry for you," a threat?

McDuck 0 #32 August 23, 2004 After the admonishment several of us got in another thread for a "flame war", I'm wondering if warnings will be issued for the above attack. Probably not. It's only us "non-elite" posting types that get the smack-down from "management" here. That's okay, we'll go make our OWN website, with blackjack and hookers...in fact, forget the website and the blackjack.

ncjumpjunkie 0 #33 August 23, 2004 QuoteLeRoy - this is a personal attack so brace yourself... You're an idiot! You know the deal. Chuck and Kip L are the only 2 guys that can give you a real monkey hat. You've been begging for one way too long which is why you never got one. Now you're attempting to cheapen the tradition and it's truly pathetic. Why don't you guys come up with something a bit more original? You have just moved yourself out of my good standings. Do not ever attempt to PM me ever again. After sticking up for your dumb ass time after time this is the last straw. I feel painfully sorry for you. Katie, I saw Chuckie at Arlos house some time ago and he also told me to my face that all you needed to become a SKYMONKEY was to jump with one and party with one or be a member of the GB club. All of this is becoming a little childish. If my monkey hat is not an original then I wont wear it ever again and I will never speak the word SKYMONKEY AGAIN. And I will be sure to post your words on the wall at the GB club where all those people that are calling themselves SKYMONKEYS can see that they too are perpetrating a fraud. I will burn my hat in protest!!!!!

eb66to77 0 #39 August 23, 2004 Yeah I went a little slap happy with the Monkey powers but all is cleared up and I apologize for the confusion. As far as my status goes it's totally legit. I don't mind the flames since I have other things to worry about like do my socks go with my pants. Just kidding. I hope everyone can get thier blood pressure back down to normal and start hating everyone again just the same. Chuckie sorry for the plethora of PM's you must have gotten for this. Later.....MATT Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
katiebear21 0 #40 August 23, 2004 John - I give up... this isn't my battle anyways. katiebear waves her white flag LeRoy - I publicly apoligize for the attack. We both know there's more history to this though and if you want to deny it that's fine. I'll try to forget how many times you asked me what you had to do to get your monkey hat and how many times I had to explain to you why Chuck hadn't given you one. If you truly believe CHuck endorsed it then whatever. Believe what you want. The reason it's so special is because there are no delegates. The hats are all personally bought by Chuck and given usually when he's inspired. It's usually a very funny thing to see Chuck inspired.

SkymonkeyONE 4 #41 August 23, 2004 The real deal: There are only two monkey numbers......period. Me and Kip Lohmiller. Anyone who is a member of the (then) Green Beret Parachute Club or (now) Fort Bragg Parachute Club is automatically a Skymonkey after they graduate student status. Hats may be awarded by myself, Kip Lohmiller, and whoever the current manager of the (former) GBSPA is. John Hayes was awarded his hat by the manager of the club and has been a fantastic host to the club since it moved to his very-friendly dropzone in Parkton, NC. Matt was a member of the club when he was stationed here, and LeRoy used to jump at the club. End of incredibly lame pissing contest. On a separate note: Once both Kip and I left the club upon our retirement from the army, we, as the originators of the clan, became the only Skymonkeys outside the club who can "give" you a hat. With incredibly few exceptions, I have bought every single hat I have ever given out, with my own money. The only people who can simply go out and buy their own hats are members of the (now) Fort Bragg Parachute Club. Those outside the club but jumping at the same dropzone may only be given hats, or given permission to buy hats, by the manager of the club (or the former manager, Arlo Guthrie). The people outside of Raeford/Parkton, NC who have been given a hat by myself or Kippy in the past few years need to remember what this is all about. It's about you being on my good side to the degree that I felt like including you in my tightest circle of local skydiving friends. We club locals/veterans get to regularly experience the brotherhood and cameraderie that originated in 1998 in that ratty-ass building off of Macomb street on Fort Bragg. We have phenomenal cook-outs and parties on a regular basis and truly love bringing the new jumpers into the fold. That's what it's all about.

VanillaSkyGirl 6 #50 August 23, 2004 QuoteHow come people care so much if they're a part of a group or not? It's so bizarre. It is a little sad that people want so much to be a part of this group of friends that they may be doing things that ultimately puts distance between them and the real group. It's confusing and odd to people like me who have no idea exactly who all the "SKYMONKEYS" are, or what it even means to be one. However, then I read what Chuckie wrote: QuoteThe people outside of Raeford/Parkton, NC who have been given a hat by myself or Kippy in the past few years need to remember what this is all about.
