Congrats! Wet or dry landing? Heard the water was up in the usual landing area. Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics.

Female, 50 - 55 YOA, caucasian, dirty blonde hair (probably out of a bottle), 5'6", 165 lbs, ambitious as all hell. A resident of New York state, but makes frequent and extended trips to the DC area. Has been repeatedly humiliated in public by philandering husband and has suffered in silence. Feels rejected by daughter whose overwhelming criteria for college was to get as far away from her 'rents as she could. Course, I could be way off here. Just my theory. Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics.

13:14:1 13 = Number of times I jumped with a fullface, hard shell helmet this weekend and lifetime Never trust anyone at a Boogie who says they have 300 jumps and wants to be a diver. Convinced me to switch helmets. Beer is for first jump in that helmet. Casa at Palatka for the Hog Flop Boogie. Did not do so well on the Hog Flop (they had to time my team with a calendar. Videographer had to switch tapes mid-jump it was taking so long.), but a great weekend. Best jump was a 3.5 point 16-way. Really close on that last point. Wished you all could have been there.

I have worn a freefly suit with a rainbow wig and face paint. Told everyone I was Da Kine the Deranged Clown. They thought I went all out on that costume. Takeoffs on Brittany Spears can be great. Guys in plaid skirts and white blouses are always a crowd pleaser. Hairy chests an extra. Have also heard of pregnant Britanny and 40-year old chain smoking Britanny. Saw a really good doctor outfit once involving all the accoutrements. The nametag said Dr. Buttman. Involved a lot of chocolate too, as I recall. Tourist who fell asleep on the beach was good, as well. Painted half the body red and stuck sand to the other half. Saw one guy come in with ripped jeans, grass hanging out of his pocket and mud smeared on his face. When asked who he was, he replied, "I'm one of (insert name of tandem master recently let go for inability to land well here)'s passengers." Good luck! Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics.

Israel Kamakawiwo'ole Facing Future (Bruddah Iz at his finest.) The EMINEM Show Metallica Black Album Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics.

Glad they're calling it the "Phantom Works". Lockheed's "Skunk Works" was probably the running joke of the entire world's secret aircraft community. Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics.

I spent 10,000 feet between her legs once in Hawaii. Very nice woman. Her brother jumps, too. I think she is very good friends with Chuck Priest of Da Kine Rags. At one time there was talk she was going to model some of his stuff, but I have never seen it. Doesn't mean she didn't do it, just that I didn't see it. Did I mention I once spent 10,000 feet between her legs? Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics.

Froot Loops...they're not just for breakfast anymore. Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics.

I usually run before work (about 3 miles) and then, after a morning with the boss, I need to bike at lunch. That man has taught me to understand how work place violence occurs. Use to do more, but thanks to military medical, my knee should need it's second operation anytime now. Andros? I thought that was a Greek isle where women sunbathed topless? Which will also help those working on their hard bodies. Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics.

Three tandems seems kind of excessive to me, but what do I know. Good luck and have fun. Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics.

Q: What is Texas foreplay? A: "Brace yourself, Martha." Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics.

I'm no moron, so I guess I have to go. Will there be Casa jumping on Thursday afternoon, or should I go to work? Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics.

69% North American...Arcane Symbolism or Just Dumb Luck. You be the judge. Back in the 70's, I actually jumped at the Beaver Valley Dropzone in western PA. They told me that in the future when we talked about bad dropzones, I would bring that one up. I don't think it is still open. Good luck at the Boogie. Isn't it going to be a little cold up there at that time of the year? And what time will sunset be? Might want to buy extra beer. The Beaver Boogie - Adding new meaning to "Get In or Go In". Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics.

Rules for entering Texas The following list of rules applies to each person as they enter Texas: Learn 'em and Remember 'em. 1. Pull your droopy pants up. You look like an idiot. 2. Let's get this straight, it's called a 'gravel road.' I drive a pickup truck because I need to. No matter how slow you drive, you're going to get dust on your Lexus. Drive it or get out of the way. 3. They are pigs, cattle, and oil wells. That's what they smell like to you, They smell like money to us. Get over it. Don't like it? I-20 and I-10 goes east and west, I-35 goes north and south. Pick one. 4. So you have a sixty-thousand dollar car. We're real impressed. We have quarter-million dollar cotton strippers that we drive three weeks a year. 5. So every person in every pickup waves. It's called being friendly. Try to understand the concept. 6. If that cell phone rings while a bunch of doves are coming in, we will shoot it out of your hand. You better hope you don't have it up to your ear at the time. 7. Yeah, we eat catfish and crawdads. You really want sushi and caviar? It's available at the corner bait shop. 8. The "Opener" refers to the first day of deer season. It's a religious holiday held the closest Saturday to the first of November. 9. We open doors for women. That applies to everyone regardless of age. 10. No, there's no "Vegetarian Special" on the menu. Order steak. Order it rare. Or, you can order the Chef's Salad and pick off the two pounds of ham and turkey. 11. When we fill out a table there are three main dishes: meats, vegetables, and breads. We use three spices.... salt, pepper and Pace Picante Sauce. 12. You bring "Coke" into my house it better be brown, wet, served over ice and plenty of it! You being "Hooch" into my house it better have 4 legs, a tail, and have a nose for quail, dove, duck, teal, or pheasant. You bring Mary Jane" to my house she better be cute, know how to shoot, drive a truck, and have long hair. 13. Yeah, we have sweet tea. It comes in a glass with two packets of sugar, some lemon, and a long spoon. 14. High School Football is as important here as the Lakers and the Knicks, and a dang site more fun to watch. 15. Yeah, we have golf courses. Don't hit in the water hazards- it spooks the fish. 16. Colleges? Try Texas A&M. They come outta there with an education and a love for God and country, and they still wave at passing pickups when they come home for the holidays. 17. We have more folks in the Navy, Army, Marines, and Air Force than any other state, so," Don't Mess With Texas". If you do, it will get your butt kicked by the best! 18. Also remember what Governor Sam Houston once said, "Texas can make it without the United States, but the United States can't make it without Texas" Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics.
