sinker 0 #26 June 7, 2003 Sorry dude, I was napping. Having a pregnant wife and two young kids is quite exhausting. I'll do better I promise. -the artist formerly known as sinker Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jessd 0 #27 June 7, 2003 I was pretty pissed when I called up there and they said that I shouldn't come. I too will be up there tomorrow. BTW - my phone is working just fine.

Her's doesn't even go to voicemail, it just rings and rings and then a friggin busy signal. Odd, i do have voicemail...i dunno what happened. But i left you an awesome voicemail with my singing and everything. ___________________________________________ meow I get a Mike hug! I get a Mike hug!

Muenkel 0 #30 June 8, 2003 Update on my aff: Went to the dz today because the forecast called for sunny skies. Well, never trust a forecast in New England. Instead, we have cloud cover with just a 3000' ceiling. My first jump is not to be, this weekend. Now, I'm just crossing my fingers for next weekend. But guess what...the long range forecast calls for rain both Saturday and Sunday. I guess patience is what I need to learn.

jessd 0 #32 June 8, 2003 Hi Chris - it was nice meeting you today. I felt all prepared to jump again after spending an hour reviewing with an instructor.

Frodo 0 #33 June 9, 2003 Some bad luck Chris Anyway, enjoy your dives! And upload some freefall photos too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Muenkel 0 #34 June 9, 2003 QuoteBTW why not jump on a weekday? Unfortunately my dz is only open Friday thru Sunday. I have no clue why, but that's their hours. Anyway, the jetstream has got to change at some time. I'll get those jumps in.Chris _________________________________________ Chris Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Muenkel 0 #36 June 9, 2003 QuoteI'm so glad we've become freinds. Ditto.On a side note, I can't believe I am coming down with a friggin cold right now. I've got a sore throat, swollen glands, chills and a wicked headache. A true friend would come over, make me some chicken soup and lovingly rub some ointment on my chest. Instead, I just took some Nyquil and I should be out cold in about 20 minutes. Chris _________________________________________ Chris Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jessd 0 #37 June 9, 2003 They are only open Fri-Sun because all of the people who work there have "regular" full-time jobs. It does kind of suck when you get out early on a random day and you can't go there. But, let's just hope that the weather gets better. This rain is getting to be a bit too much.

sinker 0 #38 June 9, 2003 I'm a true friend but I sure as hell ain't gonna rub any ointment on your friggin chest... I can boil some soup for ya, but that's about it. And I'd probably burn it anyway. Hope you get to feeling better buddy... -the artist formerly known as sinker Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hooked 0 #40 June 9, 2003 Chris, Bad luck on getting a cold now. I hope you started heavy doses of Vit. C throughout the day and started taking zinc lozenges and drink lots of water and good old chicken soup. Feel better soon!!

KawiZX900 0 #42 June 9, 2003 zinc is a funny thing huh? helps a lot... Accelerate hard to get them looking, then slam on the fronts and rollright beside the car, hanging the back wheel at eye level for a few seconds.

Well atleast when I'm under the influence of NyQuill. My question to you is, did you make the 1000 mile drive because you were expecting an interesting monster with an interesting hairdo? Anyway, thanks for making the 1000 mile drive each way. I know now how much you truly care.
