SkymonkeyONE 4 #1 August 2, 2002 I found out this afternoon at work that my leave was cancelled for all next week. Too many people out of the shop means that I have to hold my seat down with my ass all week while my family and friends are skydiving at the WFFC. I am very ill. Anyway, my roommate is out at Raeford picking up all our gear for our proposed 6:00am Saturday departure. Looks like he will be making the trip alone. I have already instructed him on where to locate all of you, so keep an eye out for him. His name is Josh Seagrave, but around here he is known as "SeaMonkey". He will either be wearing his SEAMONKEY hat or his Cobalt hat. He will be in possession of a red and white BirdMan GTi and plans on getting very stupid for the entire duration. He lurks here, but does not post, so give him a good indoctrination. He will be jumping the orange and blue Cobalt 85 that I was flying on the back of Parachutist magazine, so if you see him, say hello. Sorry kids, Chuckie Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nws01 0 #2 August 2, 2002 Sorry to hear about that Chuck. I too have tickets but I do not think I will make it. I can not get out of Boston until next Friday and I do not want to make the trip plus the drive to Rantoul and then get settled for just one and a half days worth of jumping. Oh well, there is always next year. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jfields 0 #3 August 2, 2002 Sorry to hear that Chuck. That blows! You are welcome to join the "Not going to the WFFC" cyber party the rest of non-WFFC slobs will be having. I feel bad for you, because at least I didn't have anything get my hopes up for going. Time to pencil in next year (if you are still in the military then), and line up some unholy whoopass for anything that gets in the way of that one.

SkymonkeyONE 4 #5 August 2, 2002 Well, if nothing else, this means that I will be at Richmond for the duration. Nothing in the way at work at all during that time frame. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
freeflir29 0 #6 August 2, 2002 That blows goats!! I ALMOST know how it is. I dropped my Jeep off to get some new rear wheel bearings put in on TUESDAY afternoon!!! Well....since they hadn't called me by this morning. I called them. "Oh we'll get to it this afternoon." Jackass says. I was a bit more than pissed off but not even close to how pissed off I was when he called me at 130 PM and told me "Doesn't look like I'll be able to get to it." 3 fucking days and dumbass "just can't get to it." Talk about wantin to strangle someone. Anyway.....Wheel bearings be damned!!! I'm leaving tomorrow morning. We'll miss ya. Josh best show up at "THE TENT" I can actually free fly now!!!!
