goose491 0 #13 August 27, 2003 QuoteOk, so what do you call someone that HAS done a jump and STILL doesn't get it? A Whuffo But as in "Whuffo did I jump outa dat plane?" Silly Whuffos. Hey! On the subject, how do you guys pronouce this? I say Whuffo like "Wha-fo", with emphasis (if any) on the 'wha'.... but my buddy says Whuffo like "Woofo", with the emphais on the 'fo' 'tis a moot point really... and to be honnest, I'm just looking for backup when I poke fun at my bud Cool Philly!

bobsled92 0 #16 August 28, 2003 ALSO: a "JETHRO" (the worst) is a person that starts to talk about skydiving to folks and quickly exposes himself as a "whuffo/liar" without a single clue of truth or reality.

Many Jethros have tarnished or NO pasts dealing with what they claim as "FACT" ie. yea, I jumped in the service. 2 mins of falling, I jumped from 7,000 ft, Static line. It's the same jack-ass type that tries to tell me all about Bobsledding and "COOL RUNNINGS" was really the Jamaican team. That would be like me (if I was a whuffo) trying to tell Rook & Missy how "FANDANGO" was a factual story, not a comedy Love, -Grant_______________________________ If I could be a Super Hero, I chose to be: "GRANT-A-CLAUS". and work 365 days a Year. http://www.hangout.no/speednews/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
