hawkbit 0 #1 December 14, 2002 A 3 way (or more) was something you only got to see in a porno. Farting in a small plane would be embarrassing. Laughing at people farting on a small plane would have been rude. A horny gorilla was something you went to the zoo to see. The only thing Mr Bill meant to you was in reference to a play dough character. Bigger was better. Femur was a noun. Doing things in 60 seconds or less seemed impossible. Head down only had sexual connotations. Packing had to do with luggage. Point Break was a good source of Skydiving information. Flare was something you shot into the air. Peas were something green and round in a can. Only toddlers wore jumpsuits with booties. The boxman position sounded like a mime routine. Pulling silver was something only a dentist did. 3000 feet was a long way up. Anyone have more to add?~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "You don't quit playing because you get old, you get old because you quit playing" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dumpster 0 #15 December 15, 2002 Burning Man Jumpers! I think they're reffered to as "The SkyPeople" - My brother is really into runes, I'll talk to him today, and maybe he can tell us what "skypeople" looks like in runes- Might look cool embroidered onto a closing flap, mudflap, or jumpsuit sleeve, you think?
