I’m certainly not, and I’m sick and tired of being told that I am Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Push 0 #7 July 24, 2004 Oooh I remember the night right before going to the DZ for my first jump. Driving as the sun was rising. Stop it, you're giving me chills Enjoy, and welcome. -- Toggle Whippin' Yahoo Skydiving is easy. All you have to do is relax while plummetting at 120 mph from 10,000' with nothing but some nylon and webbing to save you. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
