Thanks to you too, Rev! It's probably possible because you've never met me in person and are judging my looks now by a teeny tiny picture on the forums where you can't see very well how I've aged. Oh yea? Well I have met you in person, and my vote goes right along with the others. Just like fine wine and cheese, some get better with age. And I am unanimous in that!

And for the most part didn't I do just that on Sunday? I looked at the horizon when things started to feel fishy, immediately went to my belly from my head down (tracked a bit as well), looked at my wrist mount and said to myself "it's pull time". Sheesh right back at you dude ... I think you're being more than a little overly defensive, Steve. If I read Kris's post right, his "sheesh" was directed at the person he was telling you about, not you. Your thread title and the initial statements did mislead more than a few people -- our first impression was that you were going to say that you went low because your ProTrack didn't beep -- reading your explanation made it clear that you were heads up as to your altitude and you were simply commenting on the lack of beep. All others are trying to do is to tell you that you could become device dependent and to beware. I have yet to see anyone castigate you for your actions; I think you need to learn to read the messages and not shoot at the messengers. Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money.

Michele, our hearts go out to you. As others have said, you will know. Enjoy her now, pamper her, love her, pet her, spoil her. One day you will see that she's not enjoying herself; she'll look at you with less light in her eyes, almost like she's waiting. That will be her way of saying it's time; say goodbye and let the vet ease her pain. It won't ease your pain, but you will know that you did right by her, that will ease your pain.

They requested help from Lyle, who got John E. involved. Hmm, Freddie's old gear/hardware, John's planes, me driving the bus...who said skydiving is a small family?

46 days until our latest grandchild:1:0 We made our beer jump of 2003 on Sat.

Two reasons I drink beer: 1) I like the tast of a good beer, and 2) Single malt whiskey (or whisky depending on the Celt of your choice) is too damned expensive to drink in mass quantities.

Those of you attending PIA in Jacksonville this year are invited to join the skydivers of North Florida at our Quarterly, er, Monthly, ah, Whenever We Feel Like It Dinner.

Come meet a lot of the local jumpers, eat some good food and try some of their microbrews. If you would like to attend, please send an email to Alan.Mastin@thecolomergroup.com so he can reserve the appropriate area for us.
