My condolences. Those are not really needed, Andrea. Disneyland is far nicer than the Tragic Kingdom in Orlando; it is smaller and the weather is a lot more pleasant. We have visited the original several times, once at Orlando was more than enough, though with 3 of our five grands who haven't been to either, I don't want to think of the odds that I'll be able to stay away forever.

Did you take a canopy control class?
jceman replied to Michele's topic in Swooping and Canopy Control
Shortly after I graduated from AFF and after I got my own gear, I attended a 2-day accuracy camp with John Eiff and Nancy LaRiviere. I simply wanted to learn more about canopy control in general and got that in spades. What I took from that weekend has helped me on more than one occasion. One of the most memorable was my fourth jump back after I had shattered my right femur: short story, a long spot and no way I was making it back to the airport -- landed on the corner of two highways, trees on two sides, power lines on the other two, approximately 100 feet by 75 feet. I had to do two low 360s, first to be certain of where the power lines were and than to stay in that area. Piece of cake. But if I hadn't learned how to sink in to a small target, it might have been a far different story. Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money.

Yeah, but it is simply an electronic reprinting of all the old strips. Sort of neat, but nowhere as good as if Mr. Brethed were to get off his duff and start drawing new strips. Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money. Why do they call it "Tourist Season" if we can't shoot them?

I would second that emotion, Michele, but I think that the hugs might be painful for your Dad (I give power hugs), so I'll send his to you and you can share them when he feels up to it, Ok?

47 putts on Capt'n Kidd's Adventure on Friday:2:0 Had some jumps on the books at Deland, so used them up on Saturday after a three hour delay for clouds.

No. But it might help with your reading comprehension. But I have to agree, it's not as if anyone getting a PhD from a "prestigious non-accredited" university is going to pull down $4.4M large more than the average Joe Dropout.

I was going to post an "I'm Happy" thread, but in the light of our community's loss, I changed my mind and went with what you see. I have two items of good news:On Monday, 9 weeks and 5 days after crashing his C170 on I95, Freddie Brown was finally moved to the rehab ward. He is in therapy from 0800 to 1530 each day. He has his trach out and can speak normally, though weakly; Lynn and I talked with him Tuesday evening and he has set a goal of getting well enough to attend WFFC in Rantoul. He will, of course, not be jumping, but wants to come party and visit with everyone. If all continues well, he may be able to attend therapy as an out-patient in a month. As we were driving back up to Jacksonville this afternoon, my cell phone rang, it was my oldest son Chris's cell phone but I knew he wasn't calling from Iraq, as his wife Patty had called us from it a couple weeks ago. It wasn't Patty, though, it was Chris! He arrived home safely at 0130 EDT on Saturday. His family (especially TLML and I) thank you for all your good thoughts.

Congratu;ations, Jess. Even if you don't get the promotion you were interviewing for, you have already received a promotion of sorts. I only hope your doing well in the interview only helps lead you to better things no matter where you work. You rock, Jess. Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money.

Try searching for "avatars". That is the proper name for the images on the forum profiles. There is a shirtload of info about what size, how, etc. Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money. Why do they call it "Tourist Season" if we can't shoot them?

My god, I thought I was the only one to do that! Actually, I usually have three books going at once, a novel or heavy non-fiction in the living room, light fiction or comedy by the bed for evening reading, and Reader's Digest or cartoon compilations in the banyo. At the present, with living in the RV and having my Mom's house in Flagler beach, the current open book count is 6. Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money.

Playing "pretty well" leads to a sweep? Well, now you can root for the Stars, who I might add are still in the playoffs.

You guys are the best! Thank you all for your help! Genie BTW, to be sure you remove all the junk (don't even trust the removal programs to get all the cookies/trackers) be sure to run Ad-Aware or Spy Sweeper. You can find both at TUCOWS. Spy-Sweeper may find more spyware, and if it isn't there, you can get it here. Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money. Why do they call it "Tourist Season" if we can't shoot them?

Boogie HQ is the Spinnaker. Not sure of the exact location for the takeoffs, but there will be three vans (at least) used for shuttling back and forth. Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money. Why do they call it "Tourist Season" if we can't shoot them?

We're crying along with you, Michele. Thank you for taking such fine care of BK all her long years. Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money. Why do they call it "Tourist Season" if we can't shoot them?

Michele, My heart goes out to you. Give BK a pat for us and do what you must. Cry. Then rest comfortably, knowing that you gave her every chance to enjoy life and eased her pain.

My take on this is that if your spouse is NOT your best friend, you must live in a very unhappy, unhealthful house. Love, friendship, and respect are the cornerstones of a great relationship. Remove any one of the three, and the result is something that is shakier than a two-legged stool and just as uncomfortable. Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money.

Read the rest of the thread for the answer to your first comment; as for the second, thankfully, Deland has been pretty well clear of sandspurs in the last 7-8 years that I have jumped there. We seemed to have the problem licked at Flagler (well at least tolerable), but I'm pretty sure the lack of activity there the past two years has lost all that progress.
