  1. The usual. Two Buck Chuck! Life is either a daring adventure or nothing ~ Helen Keller
  2. Okay, so I don't drink alone, but my husband is at the Charger game and my kids are wherever (last I heard from my daughter she was getting the SC football team drunk for the SC/UCLA game - she's a UCLA fan but friends with the SC coach). So now I wanna drink, but I can't drink alone so someone else has to share my bottle of wine. Any takers? Life is either a daring adventure or nothing ~ Helen Keller
  3. Yeah, that's another thing I'm worried about. What gloves do you wear? Do you wear the liner things? If so, what kind? And what kind of gloves? I want whatever is the warmest!! Life is either a daring adventure or nothing ~ Helen Keller
  4. Yeah, Jeanne, I've been saying I'll go snowboarding when I can't jump, but then end up hangin at the DZ half the day waiting for the weather to clear and then it's too late to go snowboarding. Guess when I come visit you I'll bring my snowboard or some good movies, or maybe I'll wait and visit in the summer . Life is either a daring adventure or nothing ~ Helen Keller
  5. Kim, one of the tunnel instructors at the Perris tunnel had her 3 year old daughter and her friend in the tunnel for her 3 year olds birthday. She'd told me about it ahead of time so I went and watched and it was THE cutest thing I've ever seen. At that young age the kids have no fear. And what was really cute was watching Destiny's reaction to her mom flying the tunnel, she was laughing and jumping up and down waving to her mom. Too cute!!

  6. Thanks so much everyone. I'm going to check everything out, probably buy everything and try it all out. Like I said money is no object, not that I'm rich or anything, just that it is worth any amount of money to me to be able to be warm and comfortable. I would absolutely hate staying on the ground cuz I'm too cold to jump, hasn't happened yet but I could see it coming if I don't get warm clothing. I'm just a total wuss when it comes to cold. I DO NOT DO COLD!!! Anyway, thank you all soooo much!!
  7. I don't know that we have that store in CA, or at least near me. Do you have a website address for them? Thanks
  8. Help!!! I hate to be cold. I have a tight fitting jumpsuit so can't wear anything bulky underneath. I've been wearing silk thermals, which were okay last year, but with the weather being so much colder this year I need something warmer. Heard underarmor is good, but there are so many different kinds. I tried on a mock turtleneck winter underarmor shirt (in my size and even a size larger), but didn't like it at all, would be warm but felt like it was too tight and the mock turtleneck felt like it was choking me. So what I am looking for is something that will be really warm, but also comfortable. I need to find something before the Eloy boogie. Please help!! Cost is no object, I am willling to pay whatever it costs to be warm and comfortable! Life is either a daring adventure or nothing ~ Helen Keller
  9. Dunno it this helps you, but it might. My husband has a huge family, 10 brothers and sisters, and 10 aunts and uncles and all their kids. And everyone gets together on Christmas Eve and exchanges presents. I try to find something I can get for everyone, not too expensive since I have to buy like 50 gifts. This year what I'm going to get everyone is a "cushi pillow". They sell them at the airports, they're a little pillow that is soooo comfortable and you can use it on planes, in the car or even on the couch at home when watching TV. They were $20 at the airport, but Nordstrom outlet has them for $10 and I'm thinking I can go online and find them for even less since I'd be able to buy in quantity (about 50). And it's something everyone could use and even if they have one they could always use a second one (keep one at home, one with their travel stuff). Anyway, maybe this will help you or not, but that is what I'm going to do. Life is either a daring adventure or nothing ~ Helen Keller
  10. Hey Frenchie, I totally sympathize with you. I showed up at Elsinore Saturday morning and the clouds were comin in, could have maybe gotten in a hop and pop, but having one of those brandspankingslipperylikehell canopies decided I'll skip today and come back tomorrow when the weather is better. Today was worse, would have loved to do a hop and pop, but couldn't even do that Life is either a daring adventure or nothing ~ Helen Keller
  11. Hey, good luck!! I will be there, but I will be on the ground in the "cheering section". Life is either a daring adventure or nothing ~ Helen Keller
  12. Have to watch us quiet ones, huh! ltdiver LOL. You're right Lori. People don't expect people who are quiet to do things like skydive and drive fast cars...people are always saying to me "but you're so quiet, I'd have never imagined you racing around in a Vette and jumping out of planes" Yep, just goes to show, it's the quiet ones you've gotta watch out for .

  13. You can get vegeterian hot wings at Trader Joes, actually very good, so you don't even have to give those up
  14. I have EV(heart symbol)2FLY on my Vette. Just kind of fit with skydiving and the way I like to drive . Life is either a daring adventure or nothing ~ Helen Keller
  15. The ruins at Chichinetza (don't know how to spell it, but that's how it sounds). It was really interesting. And there is one pyramid where you can climb to the top and also go inside. Life is either a daring adventure or nothing ~ Helen Keller
  16. If you decide to go with gift certificates, some malls have gift certificates that are good for any place in the mall, so the person is not limited to just one store, they can even be used for restaurants. Life is either a daring adventure or nothing ~ Helen Keller
  17. When I was a very new skydiver I came to work one Monday morning and a coworker asked me how my weekend was. I said "awesome, I did my first 3-way" and I went on to explain that I was used to solos or only one other person and that it was so much fun that we added another guy and did a 4-way, but that the guys were much more experienced and faster than me so I had to really work to keep up with them. By the time I finished my story I had a whole group of coworkers gathered around my desk. They were disappointed when they realized I was talking about skydiving .

  18. 0:0:0 What's up with this weather??? I HATE rain and cold and dark clouds! I live in SUNNY So Cal - it's not supposed to be like this! Life is either a daring adventure or nothing ~ Helen Keller
  19. Spell check sometimes sucks. I've sent e-mail messages and inadvertently clicked change instead of ignore and misspelled my own name. Life is either a daring adventure or nothing ~ Helen Keller
  20. Our community has a day where you can bring things like light bulbs, batteries, computers, etc. to drop off. Check with your dept. of water and power, at least that is the dept. that regulates our stuff. Good luck, and good for you for being conscientious about disposing of your bulbs.

    Best Drunk Food

    Tommy's Burgers. Sooo good. But very greasy. Kind of burgers that when you eat them the grease runs down your arm. You can only eat them once or twice a year and only after drinking.... Life is either a daring adventure or nothing ~ Helen Keller
  22. Yeah, bengal. We've had kittens before but the bengal kitten is a lot fiestier. She can be the sweetest kitten, but when she is ready to play...watch out!! Life is either a daring adventure or nothing ~ Helen Keller
  23. Our new bengal kitten loves our dog (doxen/pom mix). They are best friends, but sometimes (pretty much constantly) the kitten terrorizes the dog, chases him around, jumps on his back, bites him. Luckily the dog is very gentle and puts up with it. Today we had the dog groomed and told the groomer to cut him short so that the kitten has less hair to grab onto. When I brought him home the kitten didn't recognize him, hissed and growled at him and kept her distance. It was hysterical. I was surprised though cuz I thought animals knew each other by smell. Guess they go by looks too . Life is either a daring adventure or nothing ~ Helen Keller
  24. Yayyyy!!! Life is either a daring adventure or nothing ~ Helen Keller
  25. Congrats Gia!!! I wanna come too! I'm not a big gambler, but I do love hangin out with my good bud Keith who is the manager of the Vegas tunnel (the NICEST guy) and flying the Vegas tunnel (not Perris - but I still have lots of fun there). Let me know when you're going and maybe I can meet you all there. Life is either a daring adventure or nothing ~ Helen Keller
