tattoojeff 0 #1 September 17, 2003 last weekend on the way to altitude i looked out over portland or. turning to zaz i said what strange little critters we are. building these random civilizations all over the earth. at some point a group of like souls decided to fly to 13000ft and fall back to their planet and name it, skydiving. little did we know what we were in for. we were basicly wuffo's with guts.how amazing it must have been to discover all these "doors" as the sport progressed. getting past the thrill aspect of what we do and realize these a whole spirtual side to it. i get frustrated trying to explain what skydiving is all about to non jumpers. how do you put into words the feeling of knowing exactly what someone is thinking on a two way and get that last unplanned dock. how can you explain this symbionic dance we do in 55 sec intervals. i have to think if aliens are watching us they have shake there heads and give a little smile. what strange little critters are we Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Unstable 9 #3 September 17, 2003 I hope the aliens take us more seriously than that - otherwise they may not have much of a hard time destroying us. =========Shaun ========== Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
turtlespeed 226 #4 September 17, 2003 Naww, aliens will just give us a better jump ship and more tech to jump higher, swoop faster, and live longer. How do I know this? Well any civilization that has the intelligence to create a machine or device to travel across great distances of space HAVE to skydive. DUH!I'm not usually into the whole 3-way thing, but you got me a little excited with that. - Skymama BTR #1 / OTB^5 Official #2 / Hellfish #408 / VSCR #108/Tortuga/Orfun Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jdog 0 #5 September 17, 2003 Well, I do believe that after your basic needs are met (food,shelter,clothing)... it is time to learn to fly. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
