Pammi 0 #1 September 14, 2001 Merrick and I had the priviledge to meet Dzbone today. What a great guy!! Well, except that he brought out his round reserve to show us cuz we were curious since neither of us had ever seen a round. The smell of it is killer if you haven't jumped in a while!! :) Whenever you get near a puter again, Carl....thank you for making the extra effort to come up this way and meet us! Thanks to you also Michele for getting ahold of me for him!Hemp/skydiving jewelry pics! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Aviatrr 0 #4 September 14, 2001 Quote Well, except that he brought out his round reserve to show us cuz we were curious since neither of us had ever seen a round. At first glance, I thought this was leading to.... "and he had another reserve ride today".. Then again, I guess it would be hard to do without an airplane, eh?

DZBone 0 #5 September 15, 2001 Hey, guys! It was great meeting you, too. That was the best (ie only non-truck-stop) lunch we had the whole trip! Thanks for taking time out of your day to hang.Here's a picture of us outside the Daily Grind. Love to all my friends here. I'm going to post a travelogue this evening, but in summary: not to be too nationalistic here, but the United States is an awesome country. We are so lucky to have it. Those of you who live here and haven't seen your own country, or those of you who don't live here and haven't had a chance to visit owe it to yourselves to get in a car and drive through our amazing back yard. It is an awe-inspiring place.Carl Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PLFKING 4 #10 September 16, 2001 Great pic ! I like seein' 'em.....it's good to put faces with the posters.......( who's the hottie you two guys picked up ?) DZ, I'm glad you made it home OK.I WOULD have had a pic.....but I ended up landing on the kid I gave the camera to (old habits die hard !)And Merrick....sorry things didn't work out on the N.C. thing.....I had my fingers crossed......it's good to see you up and around on that cast. When will you be able to fall out of a plane again ?Don Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

When will you be able to fall out of a plane again ?"Thanks man... I actually got the job, but then apparently got screwed out of it. Not sure I'd want to work for a company that handled things the way they did anyway.... Oh well!Not sure when I'll be back up.... I thought it would be real soon until tonight. We just got back from my best friends wedding, where I was the best man. I had promised I wouldn't wear that big-ass boot thing, so tonight was the first night that I've put on a shoe in about a month & 1/2... Needless to say, what I thought would be cake ended up hurting like hell after a few hours. [discouraged face]So, long story short, I thought I'd be back in the air in about a week or so, it may end up being a little longer [/discouraged face]Carl - it was definitely good meeting you as well, it was really cool that you came out of your way a bit to hang out. Like Pam said, the sweet smell of that reserve didn't help the already burning itch to skydive that's been building over the last month. LOL Ahhh well, what can you do.. good to see that you guys made it home OK.... Hopefully we'll be moving out to your end of the world soon, so maybe we can make a few jumps together! Peace guys, & blue skies!"Pammi's Hemp/Skydiving Jewelry" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pammi 0 #13 September 16, 2001 ROFL @ Skreamer!! Glad to hear you're home safe Carl! It was nice meeting the fellow coffee 'conesour' also! :) I'm sure we bored your friend with all of our skydiving talk...poor thing. I feel so badly for you JT! I'm already 'itching' after having not jumped for about a month now :/ I'm really glad to have gotten to jump with you before you left though! Speaking of itch...there was this song I heard a few times called 'The Itch' or some such...anyone know if that's really the title and who sings it?Hemp/skydiving jewelry pics!

I met that dude in here. Er something....I cant say anything. I am the dumb ass with 2 video cams, PC7 & a whatever-11, who did not have either one when Snappy passed out at the table the other night, at the bar. Should have Cyber film the AirAnn tounge post ear licking he got. The dude did not EVEN wake Up? HeHe!!! Man I could have totally edited that into zillions of funny things. Hell.... I just threw -Purple Liquid Metal - fingernail polish all over my fireplace, my arm, my carpet, just missed the kitten, its everywhere, everywhere! Not one drop got on my toe nails. Syht, I was just trying to do the cool Ramon paint job. Nobody will notice ..... it will just look like another AirAnn bruise.
