Amazon 7 #11 December 4, 2003 HELL YEAH.... after being here since 1981 with time in the Military before that ( they are the ones who originally forced me to come here) I understand ALL of those and identify with FAR too many. But any newbies coming here this one takes on a whole new meaning if you do not heed the warning that the water here is FREAKIN COLD. 12) You consider swimming an indoor sport Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gawain 0 #15 December 4, 2003 Every single one of those is true. And, for skydivers, you can add: 35) You're a master at finding holes while spotting on jump run. So true, so true...So I try and I scream and I beg and I sigh Just to prove I'm alive, and it's alright 'Cause tonight there's a way I'll make light of my treacherous life Make light!
