I do not know about the runway conditions. I did hear that other hangers were damaged. Your assistance I am sure would be much appreciated. You may want to call the Govenor's office in Louisiana. They called a few friends of mine asking to bring all the boats they had, so I am sure they are looking for other supplies and means of rapid transportation. I do know they are trying to get people out of the hospitals transferred to other area hospitals. A C-130 is bringing a lot of Vets to Barksdale to be dispursed to the VA hospital here. .....................................................................

One more thing - the dropzone did survive. We only lost one piece of tin roof. The dropzone will be closed this weekend, but will be open next weekend for those that just need to get away for a bit and bring some happiness into their lives. The airplane should also have the new Super Otter engines by then. Keep on keeping on!!! .....................................................................

I spoke to Donna this morning and she couldn't get near the DZ. The plane was flown out to Atlanta Sunday morning to get new Super Otter engines, so it should be fine. William and I took some of our video editing equipment and inventory out and the windows were borded up. So far, a lot of regular GC jumpers have been contacted and are doing fine (including William and me).

I hear you. It does seem that there have been many tragedies for others. I can't thank the stars above enough for blessing me with the the fact that Wm is still alive and doing better. There are so many people out there that have it far worse than I do. If you are having a tough time tonight, I'll PM my phone number and you can call me. ..................................................................... PMS#28, Pelogrande Rodriguez#1074 My Pink M

Thank you so much for your well wishes and upkeep on Wm's progress. I have had quite a few friends take the Alaskan cruise and say that it is amazing. Hope you guys have fun and you never know - may be one of your other stops will have an airport that will allow jumping. .....................................................................

That is funny shiz-nit. POM is a brand of pomegranate juice that is also flavored with other juices. ..................................................................... PMS#28, Pelogrande Rodriguez#1074 My Pink M

Who else is enjoying a great drink made with POM? I bought some POM with blueberry and made myself a toddy of POM and Kettle One. Me wuv it wong time. ..................................................................... PMS#28, Pelogrande Rodriguez#1074 My Pink M

Evelyn - I will never forget the cruise that we were on together. Even though I never got to meet you (since there were over 2000 people on our cruise), I always kept in mind that we were on the same boat together. Enjoy your vacation. We may have to plan one together from Mobile. Carnival has a great one that leaves from here that goes to the Bahamas. .....................................................................

I cringe just like you. When I read William's incident report in this month's Parachutist, I was so upset, but then again, I was rejoicing in how much I see that he is progressing. Sometimes this sport sucks so much. But the love that I have experienced from my skydiving family is what has gotten me through this dreadful time. It is people like you, Jeanne, that has kept me hopeful and sane. I love you and everyone that has expressed their love and support for us. ..................................................................... PMS#28, Pelogrande Rodriguez#1074 My Pink M

Lawdy, sista-gwurl! I agree. Turn on the AC, kick back the seat and take a nap. I would aim to bet that the person honking could stand to knock off a few calories. ..................................................................... PMS#28, Pelogrande Rodriguez#1074 My Pink M

Thought 1: Thank you!!! Thought 2: William is still recovering from massive injuries due to his accident and we park out sometimes to let him get in some extra excercise. I know he is thankful that he can walk, too. Thought 3: There are those that do.

This is a new pet peeve of mine. I was at Sam's and a chick infront of me waited for this little old couple to pack everything in their car, hobble to their seats and slowly back out so she could get their space creating a backlog of 4 cars. I parked 3 spaces down from her and actually made it into the store before she could completely haul her fat ass out of her minivan. It burns me up.
