skydiver51 0 #10 February 6, 2003 I totally agree with you. My wife runs manifest at my home DZ and loves to be around skydiving BUT she is NOT a whuffo. There are people out there that whuffo applys to. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pds 0 #13 February 6, 2003 now that you know what 'whuffo' stands for, there will come a moment in time when you find yourself faced with a person, answering thier questions, and the difference between an involved and interested bystander and a 'whuffo' will become crystal clear.namaste, motherfucker.

Just trying to get to know peeps, find out as much as i can before i do my course. Supposed to be April, but the costs seem to be getting higher and higher See now, I'm sure Zeemax would tend to have some concept as to 'whuffo we jump' so I would have a hard time calling him a whuffo. I don't call all non-skydivers whuffos. I reserve the term for the ones that ask stupid questios (There IS a such thing as a stupid question you know) My Karma ran over my Dogma!!!

Don't we all....Anyhow sometimes you just gotta go for it and just spend the money, however I do know several people that racked up serious credit card bills and don't jump much or at all now because, so be careful.
