Yes it was : ) Congrats on realizing that you are only human : ) Jump, Land, Pack, Repeat...

Silly me...I thought we were making a mass grave. Are we digging a hole for a swimming pool???? Jump, Land, Pack, Repeat...

That must be some hole we're making : ) Exactly how many bodies are we planning for? I have a few skeletons that are in my closet and a couple of my own to toss in : ) Jump, Land, Pack, Repeat...

No mini-excavator...sorry : ( If you were closer, I'd bring over a garden tiller - At least we could use that to break up the ground a bit : ) Jump, Land, Pack, Repeat...

but it made me smile : ) Are you tired of all those sissy-ass "friendship" poems that always sound good, but never actually come close to reality? Well, here is a series of promises that really speaks to true friendship: 1. When you are sad -- I will help you get drunk and plot revenge against the sorry bastard who made you sad. 2. When you are blue -- I will try to dislodge whatever is choking you. 3. When you smile -- I will know you finally got laid. 4. When you are scared -- I will rag on you about it every chance I get. 5. When you are worried -- I will tell you horrible stories about how much worse it could be and to quit whining. 6. When you are confused -- I will use little words. 7. When you are sick -- Stay the hell away from me until you are well again. I don't want whatever you have. 8. When you fall -- I will point and laugh at your clumsy ass. Remember: A good friend will help you move. A really good friend will help you move a body. Let me know if I ever need to bring a shovel. Jump, Land, Pack, Repeat...

I bought it from the DZO. He wasn't sure how many jumps it had on it, but it was student rental gear. It feels brand new - it's a bitch to pack. Everyone thought I bought it new. So, I'm guessing that it had less than 200 jumps on it when I got it. Unfortunately, I don't know how to find out how many jumps it's had : ( Jump, Land, Pack, Repeat...

I'm counting on that : ) I took it once before, but I only had 13 jumps at the time. Jump, Land, Pack, Repeat...

I bet you could land a tandem rig with no problems even without a student! Jump, Land, Pack, Repeat...

Thanks guys. I'm taking Scott Miller's course on 6/18. Maybe after he watches me under canopy a couple of times he will be able to give me advice based on my performance. I'm not in a rush to downsize - I want to be as safe as possible. I have injured myself. So, I would like to be under the canopy that would be the safest for me - whatever that might be. Jump, Land, Pack, Repeat...

I weight 148-150 - I have a Spectre 210. I experience alot of turbulence - almost every ride is bumpy. I bought a 210 because I wanted to be conservative. However, some people have told me that I should go to a 190 because I don't weigh enough for my canopy. I have had some landing issues, but now I've seemed to have gotten the hang of it and I'm feeling more comfortable under my canopy. Not all my landings are standup, but the last four in a row have been - in an assortment of wind conditions. I only have 80 jumps. I checked the PD site - the Novice recommended weight is 189. Should I keep jumping the 210 until all of my landings are perfect or should I down size? Which is safer? Jump, Land, Pack, Repeat...

Yeah...poor Martha! Jump, Land, Pack, Repeat...

It was the best! She endured so much. Of course, the ending was predictable - we all new something was going to happen to Jack. It always does : ) Jump, Land, Pack, Repeat...

I didn't collect them, but one of my boyfriends in college did. They still sell them at Target. For his birthday this year, I sent him a pack : ) Jump, Land, Pack, Repeat...

I just love the fact that Martha was the one that brought him down! Jump, Land, Pack, Repeat...

At least, you weren't in the car when it happened! I was driving down I-270 and a construction truck was losing bricks. I didn't know that bricks could bounce. I avoided them, but one of the other cars wasn't so lucky : ( Jump, Land, Pack, Repeat...

Chuck, Sorry to hear this news. I hope that your treatment is successful. Please keep us posted. You'll be in our thoughts and prayers. Wishing you well, Sarah Jump, Land, Pack, Repeat...

I don't know much about it, but I googled it and they actually prescribe medication for it! Goodness sakes alive - who'd want to take a pill for it! Jump, Land, Pack, Repeat...

What Causes Facial Blushing? In many people, facial blushing happens occasionally as an involuntary reddening of the face due to embarrassment or stress. Blushing results from an overactive sympathetic nervous system, which is part of the involuntary central nervous system in our bodies. This sympathetic nervous system helps regulate glands and organs without our conscious effort, and controls the diameter of blood vessels to the face. In some people, these nerves are unusually sensitive to emotional stress. Given the right stimulus (like feeling uncomfortable or anxious), the nerves prompt the blood vessels to open wide, flooding the skin with blood and causing the characteristic reddening of the face.

Congratulations Clint! I hope you make it another 50 (at least). Jump, Land, Pack, Repeat...

I haven't had mine yet... Jump, Land, Pack, Repeat...

I don't want to go to the Speakers Corner...don't make me go there : ( I promise to be good for the rest of the day : ) Jump, Land, Pack, Repeat...

: ) If there is a God, he loves you Jennifer. He despises me with a passion, but he will always love you. He will probably love you even more for acknowledging that you can't do it all. Jump, Land, Pack, Repeat...

You'll be one step closer to the dark side : ) Jump, Land, Pack, Repeat...

And he needs to find your placement by June 29th (the day before my birthday) so that you will be super relieved and we will have an awesome time! Jump, Land, Pack, Repeat...

Just tell him exactly what you told us! Jump, Land, Pack, Repeat...
