Recommended Posts

hehehe it looks like when we get some rain at Skydive SoBe and the little cannal fills up with water...I mean for us is nothing short of a Pro Blade Sanctioned competition, we drag our toes on the water, and the cool guys are the ones that walk around with one wet shoe...some even have been known to wet their shoe in the bathroom in order to acquire the cool-bad-ass status.....ok ok so I did it once, is that so wronnnnggggg!!!???? :P

By the way! I can't beleive that I went to the mall today!

Now I know what the rest of the population does on the weekends! YUCK!

I was like, "Mathias, I can't breath very well."

Mathias: "That's because we're in the mall"

Me: "No, really. I can't breath."

Mathias: "That's because we're in the mall"

We exit. I can breath. "See. We're out of the mall now. Everything is going to be okay."

That was a close one.

Friends don't let friends go to the mall on the weekend.

Semi-chow was a very near miss on a new member to pond scum.


What does one have to join the honored member of pond scums. What number are we up to now

Hmmm. I'm scared to answer. It sounds like you want to sign up for a number ;).

You have to be completely submerged in the pond. Head to Toe is my understanding.

But ask Hookit. He started that whole thing!

As long as the full submersion tradition is upheld and numbers can continue to be issued and new members welcomed into the club.

The way it's been explained to me is that the applicant must be a proficient swooper who has successfully swooped the pond before.

Having met that qualification the swooper has to crash into the pond resulting in complete submergence. So if somebody hits the pond so hard they skip off it and crash into the pump house, although spectacular, they aren't pond scum, and don't earn a number.

You mean me? ;)


Must be skillful in swooping the pond.
Must execute an intentional high speed swoop landing approach
Must Screw up royally preferably in a tumbling fashion
Must completely submerge self and equipment.
Video Proof is preferred but not required.

I believe the last person to achieve such status is Jim Gold. Hopefully I'll be back this weekend to view the new eligible participants.
My grammar sometimes resembles that of magnetic refrigerator poetry... Ghetto
