gemini 0 #5 April 12, 2006 just a little bump. Come on people get signed up. We need jumpers from SSM, Dallas, Temple, and all the other Texas dzs. If you're from out of state, we'll treat you right, but you have to say y'all and drink Shiner bock. Blue skies, Jim Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gemini 0 #10 June 8, 2006 FYI: All you TSL jumpers, come out Friday and join us. Then call Sat evening to see if the record has been broken. If not, come on out Sunday and join us again. We have lift capacity for around 81. Blue skies, Jim Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
