*** Then you could do your dirt dive, do the actual dive in the air, debrief it and then lastly go in the tunnel to work out anything before going up for the next dive.Quote No, it goes like this.......dirt dives no longer require creepers! You do 'tunnel "dirt" dives' before each jump, go jump, then debrief it with your cameraflyer's video! Repeat! ltdiver Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon

Maybe she is diabetic and was going through a low blood sugar event at the time? I have a friend who'd start acting rather goofy when this happened but knew well enough to sit down and take a break with lunch if that happened. Yes, please try and find this girl and have a long talk with her, Bill. (or anyone else out there who knows who this is). You may save her life yet again! ltdiver Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon

I'd love to be a part of Eric's recovery if he comes to the Rehab Center where I work. I believe, though, that he'll be transferring to a place closer to home when he can. More healing thoughts from from me and also my co-workers for Eric. We've seen miracles happen and -know- that Eric will be one of them too! ltdiver Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon

Welcome, Jason! Was wondering when you were going to chime in here. :^) I'm sure that you, Molly, and Tim will be an inspiration to Eric when he's up and able to recieve visitors (soon, I hope). We were thinking of you all just this weekend... (oh, and -do- tell him how much he's gonna LOVE his physical therapists! ;^) ) ltdiver Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon

Uh....sorry the end of the Baby Boomer's era was 1964. Think you're Gen-X...

So, if NY separates the gays/lesbians from the 'rest of the world' during school because they are 'picked on', how are they going to learn survival skills to fend for themselves in the real world? Really, this smacks of the same temperment that the 'poor me' families tout when they whine about 'grading students on their academic learning'. They are afraid that if 'little Johnney' gets a 'D' or 'F' they will feel bad....so we should do away with the grading system so they don't feel this. Well, what happens when they get out in the corporate world and can't hold their own? How will they cope with the competitive scene? They didn't develop the skill growing up... my .02, ltdiver Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon

Note bold highlight! I knew he was cool! ltdiver Bob Hope "Skydives"! Tuesday, July 29, 2003 West Point no stranger to comedian's visits By John W. Barry Poughkeepsie Journal Dressed in fatigues, spending Christmas in a battle zone with his fellow Americans, he would stand at his post keeping watch, gazing out over a sea -- of laughing soldiers. Bob Hope's battle cry was a corny joke and his sidearm was a golf club. But contributions that the legendary entertainer, who died Sunday at age 100, made to America's military rank for many with the best battle plans of any general or the most courageous victory of any field commander. ''Now there is a guy who should be laid out in the White House for all the morale boosting he did,'' said 1st Sgt. Tracey Krom of the New York Army National Guard. Krom, a resident of Hurley, is stationed at the Poughkeepsie Armory, Battery A, First Battalion, 156th Field Artillery, at the intersection of Market and Church streets. ''Or at least in Augusta, Ga., for all the golf he played,'' Krom added in true Hope deadpan, referring to the city that hosts one of professional golf's premier tournaments, the Masters. Hope never served a day in the military, though named in his honor are a U.S. Air Force C-17 cargo plane and a U.S. Navy cargo ship. In 1968, he was awarded West Point's Sylvanus Thayer Award; in 1969, he was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom by President Lyndon B. Johnson; and in 1997, he was the first to be named an honorary veteran by Congress. But while he never flew a jet fighter or marched with an infantry, Hope traveled 10 million miles while entertaining troops, between his first combat zone trip for the USO in 1943, to Italy and North Africa, and his last one in 1990, to Saudi Arabia and Bahrain during Operation Desert Shield. Multiple stops Along the way, he entertained cadets at the United States Military Academy many times. His first stop at West Point came in 1946 and was followed by several appearances in the 1960s and 1970s, when he taped episodes of ''The Bob Hope Show.'' His last appearance at West Point was May 17, 1981, in Michie Stadium. Donna St. John, communications director for the Washington-based USO, which was formed in 1941 at the request of President Franklin D. Roosevelt and which coordinated Hope's trips, said the entertainer was an inspiration to the troops. ''I think what he ended up doing was he carried the message to them that the American people cared about them and supported them,'' St. John said. ''He was a tremendous morale booster.'' St. John added that Hope inspired many entertainers to follow suit and head out on the road to entertain the troops. ''I think he left a legacy that will continue,'' she said. Holiday tradition During Hope's first Christmas trip to visit troops in 1948, he traveled to see soldiers participating in the Berlin airlift. This holiday tradition continued around the world for decades. Tim Massie, who is the chief public affairs officer for Marist College in Poughkeepsie, was a young radio reporter for Poughkeepsie-based WEOK (1390 AM) when he was assigned to cover what would be Hope's last appearance at West Point in 1981. Massie said a sky diver -- allegedly Hope making a grand entrance -- landed and a few minutes later Hope appeared on stage, decked out in skydiving gear, dragging a parachute. George Bush, who was vice president at the time, made a surprise appearance on stage during that show, which also featured country entertainers Glen Campbell and Tanya Tucker, Massie said. ''It was like you see on all the newsreels, when Bob Hope would go and entertain all the troops,'' Massie recalled Monday. ''The humor ranged from the stuff they could show on television to the stuff they couldn't show on television. Some of it was somewhat bawdy. It was a major production.'' Massie said Hope delivered jokes throughout an interview that he conducted with the entertainer after his performance. ''He was a very nice guy,'' he said. But along with his humor, Massie said Hope's ''multi-generational appeal'' will be a significant part of why people will always remain fond of him. ''Theoretically, you could be in a room where grandparents, parents and children could watch together,'' Massie said. ''There aren't many people in entertainment like that today.''

God, this is hard. I heard the news over the phone, from a friend who wasn't even in town this weekend. Shocked is an understatement. I met Rob over the phone when I started as a newbie gear dealer way back when. He was with PD Source at the time, then The Drop Shop when the former closed. Rob was always cheerful and helpful, answering questions from someone who, at the time, didn't even know that risers came -with- with the rig, and not with the canopy! Every time I had an order, or a question, Rob was there to teach and laugh. When he moved to CA, he actually recognized -me- and came over with a hug! The first picture I had seen of Rob was one he sent of a Halloween party in which he shaved his entire body and donned a pink girlie outfit! (wish I still had that picture now, he was so proud of it!). My memories will always be of the positive of Rob and his joy, his mentoring, his tireless teaching. He invited me to fly a wingsuit with him...he would teach me. I balked...kind of scared to try something -that- new. I wish I hadn't. He was someone I already trusted and knew I would be safe. Blue Skies, Rob. Your uplifting spirit will be missed. Lori Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon

Let's be careful out there! Remember this?: "As reported on AVweb: http://avweb.com/n/?18b Rotorua, New Zealand, was the site of a skydiver bombing early this week as bags loaded with lead shot fell from the sky and "blew up" upon impact with the ground. The impact of the skydivers' weight belts caused them to spray lead shot in every direction on a road outside of Rotorua airport and injured one woman. Authorities are investigating."
