jtval 0 #1 May 20, 2003 CROSS POST ok as we all know SKYDIVE BOOGIES are as close to a "MEET" or "CONVENTION" that we know of. but why did we choose the word "BOOGIE" to describe it? any on e have a clue? is it like the slang term "lets BOOGIE?" or is there an odd meaning for it? curious how It got started. when I say it to my devoted whuffo followers they look at me wierd until I describe it as a MEET.... maybe we chose it just to confuse those whuffos!My photos My Videos Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

" Oh no, please don't label 'Boogie' with just the 70 's music and the chaos of bad affros and platform shoes, not to mention the terror of polyester clothing....shivvers......ah the horror , the horror..... 'Boogie' has been around for a lot longer than that, Mr John Lee Hooker was Boogie Chillen' in the late 40's I believe.... -------------------- He who receives an idea from me, receives instruction himself without lessening mine; as he who lights his taper at mine, receives light without darkening me.
