Loneliness and uncertainty a meddlesome pair invading pure thoughts trampling good feelings Adversaries of love yet, weak by their nature are easily banished by a heart so admired and adored Distance is relative for no matter how far you are never alone. When one heart has touched so many it is lent the strength of them all and something so strong can never be compromised. **Be strong. Love you, girl!

Oh, FFG! I hated that commercial, too....something very .... not right about it! Hell, if I'd climbed on a rail of a bridge and prepared to jump from it, I would not be swayed by hotties playing volleyball. I'd definitely go for it. Then again, I'd be jumping a BASE rig, not a bungee cord....but that's me! Take me, I am the drug; take me, I am hallucinogenic. -Salvador Dali

Where are you, Bytch?! Take me, I am the drug; take me, I am hallucinogenic. -Salvador Dali

Reading that article was kind of like watching a train wreck....horrifying, disturbing, yet I couldn't tear my eyes away from it. The most interesting part in my mind? That 430 people responded to ads he placed looking for available flesh to be eaten. Spooky! Take me, I am the drug; take me, I am hallucinogenic. -Salvador Dali

Lay in bed in the dark and contemplate the many ways you will sell helmets and protracks and camera mounts in the morning? (that is if power has been restored and all is right in the world...well, sebastian, at least) I'm with Jib on the other suggestions....all good, by the way! Or you could just take a little cold medicine with an antihistamine, engage in some risque IM action, and wait until the sleep steals you away from reality? Always a favorite of mine....(well, not being sick, but the rest is fun!) Take me, I am the drug; take me, I am hallucinogenic. -Salvador Dali

Oh, fix me up some hot chocolate! Please? Take me, I am the drug; take me, I am hallucinogenic. -Salvador Dali

Well, congratulations to you for making a decision you are clearly happy with! This isn't the first time I've read about someone ending their instructing and/or jumping career. Surely it won't be the last. And as someone who newly discovered the sport, I find it difficult to understand...not so much the part about dz politics wearing on a person, but on not jumping again. I was thinking about it all today and realized that I only started skydiving three months ago. I wondered how long the fire inside will burn...you know, the one that calls you to get up to altitude yet again? Now I'm wondering....is it best to continue in the sport, spending all this money I can barely afford to spend when veterans of the sport are leaving with a smile on their face and praising the freedom that comes from cutting away from skydiving? Is it worth it to invest myself in something I may learn to dislike? Personally, I'm thinking....yes, ride it till it burns out....and yet, in the back of my mind, I wonder...should I? Your opinion?

0:3:plenty Made the drive over to Zhills for the first time with Stacy and absolutely loved the DZ! Just wasn't loving tent life in the cold weather. Never had to jump with layers of clothes and gloves before. This is Florida, right? I'd just like to say to Aviatrr, The111, eeneR, Stacy, and Galen that you all rock! Thanks for some insane belly flying with the new girl. (I know I'm chaos in the air, but it kept me laughing!) And, Stacy, thanks for putting up with me sleeping the entire way home. I hate being sick! Take me, I am the drug; take me, I am hallucinogenic. -Salvador Dali

Maybe it's just me...but I'm thinking our friend AggieDave wasn't commenting on the post being random, rather he seemed to be postulating a theory about its leftist political origin. Then again, maybe I just need to stop thinking so much and have a beer. Take me, I am the drug; take me, I am hallucinogenic. -Salvador Dali

At what point does a dz request an annual fee from a skydiver? On their first jump at that dz or on subsequent jumps? I mean, if you are visiting a new dropzone and they have annual fees, are you subject to them? Take me, I am the drug; take me, I am hallucinogenic. -Salvador Dali

Now is that your repair kit on display in the drop shop? Congrats on getting some good air time! Take me, I am the drug; take me, I am hallucinogenic. -Salvador Dali

You only wish that you were a sheep inseminator!! Just go ahead and inseminate sheep if it turns you on, but don't pretend that you get paid for it!!! Take me, I am the drug; take me, I am hallucinogenic. -Salvador Dali

MissKriss...welcome to our happy club of skychick drinkers! You're in the wrong state, but state lines cannot contain us! Take me, I am the drug; take me, I am hallucinogenic. -Salvador Dali

Nooooo! This thread will not end on an explanation of the todger! It must return to the deep, dark wilderness of sexual inuendo! Or back to the topic at hand! Did I mention that there are three skychicks here all drinking and posting and an interesting lack of available men? (ahhh...better, now!) Okay, okay...since this is a skydiving forum...I did my first three way today and it rocked! And eener took me for a 2way fly which was equally awesome! And I love my new helmet! Hello, addiction, sweet friend! Take me, I am the drug; take me, I am hallucinogenic. -Salvador Dali

I'm not familiar with this...todger...of which you speak? Perhaps this is an English term. I would try to pronounce the word, but apparently I have an "american" accent. Wouldn't want to offend! Hmmm....I need another beer...anyone? No worries, I'll get my own...now how do you open this thing again? (thinking...now a thing of the past) Take me, I am the drug; take me, I am hallucinogenic. -Salvador Dali

[shamelessly cooperating] okay, count me in on those jumps...I'll fly base! [/shamelessly cooperating] Oh, honey..I'll play along. Okay, will someone get some tape for the poor man's willy...apparently it requires it's own safety strap! Take me, I am the drug; take me, I am hallucinogenic. -Salvador Dali

You and that bloody badger song! Okay, already....[singing] badger, badger, badger...mushroom! [/singing] How hot is that? Take me, I am the drug; take me, I am hallucinogenic. -Salvador Dali

Now, see...that's why I bring my tent with me. So that my friends can use it, if needed. A friend in need and all that! Take me, I am the drug; take me, I am hallucinogenic. -Salvador Dali

I'm sure there are enough hottie men here that we could all share! I mean, these are all good guys...no interest in corrupting us skychicks who've had a few beers. Actually, maybe they should fear being corrupted by us! (oops, I mean you two!) Take me, I am the drug; take me, I am hallucinogenic. -Salvador Dali

There is a camera?? Where? I only want to show off my shiny new helmet...honest! I'll be good! Take me, I am the drug; take me, I am hallucinogenic. -Salvador Dali

You heard nothing...I call you on your falsehoods! I am a good girl with a catholic school upbringing...I don't even say the word (S....E....X) for fear of offending. I deny your false allegations!

Mmmm...Becks....oh, happy night. Bring on the single, hot, available men! Take me, I am the drug; take me, I am hallucinogenic. -Salvador Dali

Is it wrong to feel this good? How many becks does it take...ummmm....I lost count. Thinking is over-rated, anyway...take it from a struggling medical student. Can I just say...thank goodness I left the camera at home, because my new pretty navy Z1 is really really awesome...and well, it's just good I'm not near a camera! Take me, I am the drug; take me, I am hallucinogenic. -Salvador Dali

You know...we should jump together some time! You could go head down and I could fly belly, maybe for a little perspective... Even if we don't do that, I think you've been working really hard on getting your freefly skills down and I admire that! How did it go today? Take me, I am the drug; take me, I am hallucinogenic. -Salvador Dali

Awesome! Congratulations to you...and I was excited when I hit 30 minutes of freefall... Take me, I am the drug; take me, I am hallucinogenic. -Salvador Dali
