    Recently did....at least while on the hill. Was doing some coach sit jumps and was on my last coach jump of the day. We put our gear on, and as usual, I put my goggles on top of my helmet until the door opens to avoid the fog-up, the door opens, coach and I get in position for exit, I count the exit and there I go....down the hill with my goggles still on top of my helmet. Slowly I see my coach moving towards me and get really excited thinking he is going to dock and then all of a sudden he hits the top of my helmet and everything goes yellow as my goggles fall right in place on my face. Cool thing about it is in the video you can clearly see me go from joy and exhiliration and then to surprise as I clearly mouth the words "OH SHIT!" Still was a great jump and glad I had my goggles on top on my helmet instead of around my neck...and glad my coach is such a BAD ASS (thanks Wyat ). "Excuse me while I kiss the sky..." - Jimi Hendrix

    You should try MEN...they are much better than boys but it is often hard to distinguish between the two ....can take days, weeks, even months to figure it out sometimes . Hang in there.... "Excuse me while I kiss the sky..." - Jimi Hendrix

    I was wondering if it is possible to add an E-Bay like feature to the classifieds ads? Kind of like how E-Bay allows you to enter comments regarding the purchase by both the seller and buyer. It might help both sellers and buyers avoid some of the scams (which you guys are doing a GREAT job identifying) and also give the seller and/or buyer a little more insight on how often the other does transactions, any problems with transactions, etc. Just a thought....You guys and gals do an awesome job with this site and I just want to say: THANK YOU!!!

    I never saw your original post but want you to know that you seem to have captured EXACTLY how skydiving makes me feel. Although I know you are struggling with your difficult decision right now, I hope you find some comfort in the fact that your post was incredibly inspiring to me (and to others I'm sure). The apprehensions you talked about as a new jumper seem universal...its nice to see someone with the confidence to put it in writing. I'm not as articulate as you or others on this site, but I hope you understand what reading your post has done for me . Thank you Rosa

    Try paying $2.99 a gallon! I did today in Del Mar. But I don't drive some gas guzzling thing...thank God! "Excuse me while I kiss the sky..." - Jimi Hendrix

    Half the posts on the forum says A and half says B. Confused Couldn't find any license requirement on USPA's website so I called the DZ. You need an A. "Excuse me while I kiss the sky..." - Jimi Hendrix

    AWWWWWWW....Kuma! I have a black lab, Sharpei mix. He dosen't have nearly as many wrinkles as Kuma (he had a lot more when he was just little baby). But he does have the super course Sharpei hair ...I can never get it out of the fabric in the back seat of my car . "Excuse me while I kiss the sky..." - Jimi Hendrix

    Smart man! Tucson has absolutely NO night life and during the summer when the University is not in session, you'd think you're living in a large retirement community...which leads to me to the fact that the average speed limit in the city is probably around 20 mph. However, it is great if you are TRULY an outdoors person. As for Atlanta, I've noticed how everyone has just glossed over the fact that the entire state smells like a sewer during the HOT ass, HUMID summer months. However, when I was driving through there for spring break in 1995 (Good God that was 10 years ago )gas was only $0.85 per gallon "Excuse me while I kiss the sky..." - Jimi Hendrix

    I second the Jiffy Lube sucks thing. They completely removed my windshield wiper fluid tank to fill it up and then did not latch it back in properly so that it eventually fell into (and yes, melted and destroyed) the cooling fan for my radiator. Even though I went back to them 2 days later, they contended that I did it..Martha Fockers!!! Sorry, I don't know anything about synthetic oil "Excuse me while I kiss the sky..." - Jimi Hendrix

    Well at least you learned that there is a difference between a "movie" and a "film." Regular/normal people see "movies." People who are trying to get some deep, life message, inner beauty, artisitically shot crap from it see "films." Film or movie, "Lost in Translation" was booooooorrrring!!! Not to mention the thought of Bill Murray with Scarlett Johanson continues to turn my stomach "Excuse me while I kiss the sky..." - Jimi Hendrix

    Yeah, great, I found Taft. I guess what I meant to ask was: Aybody jump there? Is it open on the weekdays? How many loads usually go up? Cost for jump ticket? There is no experienced jumper information on their web-site. "Excuse me while I kiss the sky..." - Jimi Hendrix
