Ummm, I don't recall whining about the pain. Well, besides the thread title...but what else would I title the thread? My leg feels fine? I'm handling my pain just fine, I just thought I'd share pics and the gooey details. It's not often that I have thick orange fluids running down my leg from an open sore

Was that a compliment? Or hurtful sarcasm? I deserve both so it doesn't really matter Yeah well I used that Aquaphor stuff again, and it turned my semi-hard scab into a nasty gooey membrane. A few minutes after putting it on, I watched this thick orange fluid run down my leg...that was a bit unnerving.

You mean you haven't learned not to take anything WatchDog says seriously? Well...don't No offense intended Brotha

WoOt! DZ.commers goin to Eugene raise your hand

Hope not But you can be damn sure I won't be sliding across the runway again

Yeah, well I have the whole higher education thing nagging at me all the time, it's even worse than actually participating in higher education...I gotta call up the comm college soon and get started I'm goin to the boogie but I don't know if I'll jump. My leg is still pretty sore. It's just roadrash but I don't want to fall on landing and tear it up again. I'm only goin to the boogie so I can get razzed by everyone about my shit landing being the attention whore that I am

Alas! I have no speakers, nor a radio Oh yeah, and there are lots of people around...just not in my department. Theres like 12 people on the otherside of the cubicle wall....

I'm sitting here at work with nothing to do. My dad (aka Boss..kinda) is in the manufacturing building working on the company presidents computer, and the other two temps that were brought in are no where to be found. I'm sitting here on my psuedo stolen PC drinking my Mt. Dew and wondering what the rest of the day will bring. I can't wait for the day to be over so I can do some laundry, pack and drive down to Eugene for the boogie after work

I was using this Aquaphor stuff for a few days right after the accident. I'm gonna start using it again. Put it on when I get home from work and then wash it off in the morning. I start laughing when I see it oozing like that...hehe...geeeeez

Ok, so when I take a shower, I gently scrub my leg with a cold soapy washcloth. After my shower, my leg will ooze this yellowish stuff in a few spots, and it dries hard like glue. WTF is up with that?

Eagle was the first animal to come to my mind

WARNING pop-ups ahead

It might be "Slider", don't know if it will stick or not, here's the story http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?post=1167676#1167676

I grounded myself for the day after I slid across the runway on landing

When was the last time I got laid? Does head count? If so, then it was about 6 years ago or so...I think...maybe 7

My injury isn't near as bad as yours, but as far as pants are concerned, I avoid them like the plague. I can only wear them if I wrap my roadrash up in gause, and even then it's really uncomfortable. I've been wearing shorts here at work for the last few days. It grosses a few people out, and peaks the curiousity of others. Whatever. At least I don't have to go to the production floor for now (jeans are required for production floor)

I could get used to that I just checked my DZ.com spam, err e-mail I mean. I like to scan through the Subjects to see if I can find anything interesting. This subject title was just eerie "Growth hormone accelerates wound healing" These webcrawling spambot things are good

Nah I don't need your thimble full of pus, I grow my own. Harvested some from my leg this morning before work

Hey I like that one

Pshh, I got nothin to lie about I've watched porn before, but it's all the same lame ass shit. It's too stupid to watch. It wouldn't be so bad if it was at least funny, but it's even too stupid to be funny. *shrug* whatever floats yer boat I guess

I'm lovin my road rash right now, compared to that shit...dayum...

Naw this was down at Skydive Eugene. I would have to ground myself for life if I somehow managed to land on the runway at Kpow lol The LZ is right next to the runway at Skydive Eugene...

But at least I'll never forget the lesson Last weekend I did 5 jumps, 3 on a 200sf 7cell F111 something or other that was dropping me on my ass. Either it was just too old for a decent flare at that loading, or I just didn't know how to flare it (the latter most likely). The final 2 jumps were on a 260 Saber2. I wasn't used to the glide ratio on that canopy after jumping that 7cell, and was too high on my final. There was a treeline on the far end of the landing area, when I got there I felt I had enough altitude to land in the landing area, west of the runway so I turned left. A couple seconds later I realised I was wrong yet again. I looked down to the jumper that landed before me and yelled "FUCK ME!" knowing that I was basically fucked and landing either on, or past the runway. I looked both ways for coming/going planes, the air and ground was clear and I did what I had to do to get to the ground in one piece. I touched down right at the closest side of the runway and had a lot of speed built up from my turn to avoid the treeline. I swooped across the runway, but I had come down hard so I was dragging my right leg behind me (would have just been my toe if I hadn't landed hard). Now I have a case of roadrash that occasionally hurts like hell. About 20-30 people saw my landing, jumpers and non jumpers alike. A DZ employee patched me up and talked to me about alternative to the choices I made on my landing pattern and was a lot kinder to me than I deserved. It's really sobering to think that if a plane had been landing or taking off, I could have killed everyone on the plane, and myself as well. Ugh...never again. Never ever ever again

Holy fuck I'm the only guy so far that doesn't watch porn?!?!

That's FKN HILARIOUS! Oh umm err...No offense...
