ryoder 1,590 #10 July 5, 2004 Quote I personally love this part: QuoteThe accompanying art is just tiny, boring photos of folks in jumpsuits against a background of blue.

happythoughts 0 #19 July 5, 2004 QuoteThe accompanying art is just tiny, boring photos of folks in jumpsuits against a background of blue. LOL In the opinion of this reviewer, the value of the opinion of that reviewer is... squat. Someone goes to a skydiving website and sees pictures of skydiving. Who woulda thunk it? About two weeks ago, a writer from the St. Pete Times came out to the dz and did a tandem. A couple of the guys docked on the tandem. Also recently, there was a reporter from the local tv station doing a story on the "old people doing stuff" angle after Bush Sr. did his latest jump. She did a tandem also.

freeflir29 0 #21 July 5, 2004 Wow....made it onto the Forbes list but......does this site even come close to paying for itself yet? Amazing........ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
happythoughts 0 #22 July 5, 2004 The writer was qualified to judge the website, but I think Mike knows a little more about what makes a good skydiving photo. Besides, I never let subset-of-a-set type stuff, or logic, interfere with my opinions. I'm just trying to share my feelings. M. Forbes used to keep a boat down in Miami near the dive boat docks. Well maintained, but it looked like he bought the paint at a yard sale. "Hey, I got this great deal on dark green paint for the trim on the sailboat."
