  1. Chad and I brought them to Hawaii with the CO2 on them. Checked baggage. Had them in a ziploc bag with "flotation devise" on it. No problem at all. _____________ PMS #394
  2. Either of you going to be at Chicks Rock this year? I'm sure there'd be lots of girls who'd want to Blow Joe. . . _____________ PMS #394
  3. Portland Oregon is still stupidly expensive for housing, but we also contend with a strict urban growth boundary. Crack houses are going for about $200k. _____________ PMS #394
  4. You going to visit Justin? _____________ PMS #394
  5. I'm not sure why, but I know the one we saw crunched in the road on the way to the DZ last Sunday didn't make it. . . _____________ PMS #394

  8. I was a huge pack rat as a child. Forward to living in a tiny dorm room in college. . . cured me of my pack rat ways. Every now and again I go through my house and clear out stuff for Goodwill. I figure if I'm not using it, someone else can. _____________ PMS #394
  9. I remember the book, not sure if I ever saw the movie. _____________ PMS #394
  10. I have a question for you: Is strabismus something that can be passed down generation to generation? _____________ PMS #394
  11. That sucks. I don't remember being teased for the patching much, but more for the coke bottle glasses as a kid. It helped grow my own brand of dry humor. _____________ PMS #394
  12. You should definately get a picture from your mom. Does that make you the right coast twin & me the left coast twin? _____________ PMS #394
  13. I went through pictures & found the patch picture. I don't have a scanner, so it's a picture of a picture. Edited to add picture. _____________ PMS #394
  14. You can get a box of screws with mini screwdriver at most drug stores. . . It has come in handy when I've had the same thing happen. . . _____________ PMS #394
  15. I understand. That has been the A#1 self conciousness of my entire life. _____________ PMS #394
  16. It's amazing how similar our stories are. Glasses since I was 2. Reconstructive surgery that almost robbed my eyesight completely as a a child. Bifocals. Patches. Eye exercises to strengthen my eyes. Specialast after specialist. I don't qualify for any of the current surgeries as my vision is too piss poor and falls outside of any doctor's comfort level. I got contacts in about the 6th grade and it changed my life. Before that my glasses were your standard coke bottle thick bifocals. Not too kid-friendly. Hmm. And where to look? I know it may seam a bit strange, but just look straight at the person. My eyes still roll when I'm tired. I have a picture of me at about age 4 or 5 with my left eye patched, my doctor patched both the eyes on my favorite stuffed animal dog. . . I love that picture. I asked my last eye doctor (about 4 years ago) about the possiblity of another surgery, as had been tossed around when I was a teen. He decided that it wasn't needed, that the risk wasn't worth the reward. _____________ PMS #394
  17. On my 100th, I did a horny gorilla with my husband. On a friend's 100th, I rodeoed him like the little b!#ch he is. . . _____________ PMS #394
  18. 3 surgeries, all before I got to my third birthday. It was something my parents decided & I'm VERY glad they did. I was told by my eye doctor early on that my left eye is my dominant eye, so my eyes appear straighter when I look with that one. I wore glasses from 14 months until I got contacts at 16. When I don't have my contacts in, the eye I'm not looking with turns in a little bit. As far as eye contact, I just look at them. It's not something I really think about anymore. If people notice, I explain what stabismus is. It took me quite awhile growing up to get that comfort level, really, who wants to have bi-focal glasses as a kid?? _____________ PMS #394
  19. yeah, well... i have survived 1300 jumps, so i guess i've taught myself too. however i have an excuse for sucking at horseshoes now. and sunset loads. I think the lack of depth perception has definately made me much more conservative on my landings. I've gotten more adventurous, but nowhere near swooping. Who knows when I have another thousand jumps though. It's been awhile since I did a sunset load. I have one planned this weekend for a friend's birthday, so we'll see how the landing goes. I don't remember a problem with them as long as I wore clear goggles. _____________ PMS #394
  20. I have never and will never see in 3D. (I was born with strabismus & have had corrective surgery) I don't swoop. I find it interesting the tricks I've taught myself to do things that others take for granted, but I still suck at frisbee. _____________ PMS #394
  21. (at least that's five. . .) _____________ PMS #394
  22. If you do get the itch to jump, we'll be at Ralph's all weekend. . . _____________ PMS #394
