No Joe. she drives in the IRL. You know, pointy cars, Indy, and all that. She has gone on record stating that NASCAR drivers have to work too hard and have too many races. I fail to understand how anyone who calls her/himself a racer can say there are too many races. Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money.

I pay in the $140/month range, but that is for our two 2001 vehicles, My PT Cruiser and TLML's Plymouth (that's right, one of the last ones) Neon. That is for 100K/300K with 100/250 deductibles in FL. Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money. Why do they call it "Tourist Season" if we can't shoot them?

That's one of the cool things about this sport. To a certain point, you can choose how much risk you're willing to take. That is very true. I definitely have accepted the fact that I could die/be seriously injured skydiving, but I don't think I'm going to do anything that would make that more possible than it already is. Like I said before... I like hanging around in the sky, probably because I'm a huge fan of heights and scenery, and quick turns seem to diminish altitude quickly. Very good point about emergency turns low, and the "I didn't know I was that low" turns. Emphasis added by me -- Sounds like me until I was in demo mode after 100 or so jumps. While demoing a Sabre I experienced my first true "turfsurf" as we called it then -- I was stoked for days! After I had a couple hundered jumps on my new canopy, doing fast 90 degree turns to final and enjoying the heck out of the swoops, I tried a 180 hook at Quincy in '98. I was back in the air a bit over 9 months later (with a shirtload of metal in my right leg) and wasn't quite so eager to do those again. Moral of this story?

Yes, so it seems. I get this: (see attachment). But I don't know why yours is different from mine...

Thanks Betsy. I really needed that news today -- what a forked up way to be greeted back from vacation... Welcome Back Soldier!

I just got home from vacation in WI and THIS is how I'm greeted? Damnit! Fly Free Shannon.

Here's the part in question, with emphasis added (note that I continued on with Skymonkey13's reply to the nay-sayer: Are you saying he does'nt own a Mig? If you are, i beg to differ. Not only that, but if you think he only owns one L-39, you're only off by a factor of 20 or so. Like I said, reading comprehension is lacking. Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money.

Are you saying he does'nt own a Mig? If you are, i beg to differ. Not only that, but if you think he only owns one L-39, you're only off by a factor of 20 or so. Come on guys, make a bet!!! Person who is wrong does not post for a week. I would bet that he owns a Mig, and not only that, more than one. So i'm up for a bet.

Then you take it wrong. There is everything at the WFFC and organizers for all of it. Some of the stuff is frowned on and will get you a spanking (do a search on Mr. Bill and low pulls at WFFC for a hint), but it matters not whether you fall belly first, feet first or head first. if you want to join a group of like-minded individuals, you will easily find them.

The motivation is the entire experience. The WFFC experience is banging out skydives out of multiple turbine aircraft and jumping non-typical aircraft and talking to manufacturer reps and jumping with people from all over the world and jumping with Airspeed or the Golden Knights and waking up to the sound of Mullin's King Air taking off and watching people landing and signing autographs for the kids in the spectator area and driving a golf cart loaded with 8 or 10 friends in reverse around the grounds and listening and dancing to live music and drinking and wearing a toga and becoming a Rodriguez Brother and sitting around a bonfire singing along with the guy playing the guitar and hanging out with old friends and meeting loads of new friends and being totally surrounded by skydiving and thousands of other skydivers for ten straight days. If all you care about is banging out skydives, then WFFC probably isn't for you. I wish I could be there this year. I second all of those emotions, Lisa. We planned on going this year, but it turns out that week is the only time our granddaughters can come spend time with us. Having a reunion with the skydiving "family" is one thing and we really looked forward to it, but family comes first and the decision was a no-brainer. If you haven't experienced the convention, do it. It may or may not be what you envision, but it will be an experience and you may have a story or three dozen for your troubles.

Congratulations Ed and Mary. 50 years is a long time; my wife and I are 12 years behind you and looking forward to the coming times. All the times have not been great, but the down times have never been all that bad -- I can only hope the same applies to you two. I only know one of your children, Chris, and only know him on-line, but if the other seven kids have turned out to be half the gentle man (and gentleman) that he has, you have made this world a nicer place. Thank you. Happy 50th Anniversary. Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money. Why do they call it "Tourist Season" if we can't shoot them?

Nah, we never win anything. All we've ever gotten were free meals, concert tickets, albums, golf/cruise vacation, a pig, TLML won a PD reserve and I won a ride in Don Kirlin's L-39.
