  1. I am voting for Romney. The USA will not be the same under Obama's second term. It will take more than our lifetime to fix.
  2. I was dropped off at Eloy because I was out of money, broke, and I knew a DZ could possibly become home. Of course Eloy is the DZ of all DZ's. Perfect weather, Arizona Airspeed, Arizona Freeflight, LEGENDS in the sport. One of the first people I met and befriended was Ash. He introduced himself when I was working at maintenance and said "Hey, this was my first DZ job here too!" We got to know each other and before I knew it we made a hop and pop from altitude. There were others in the air but he kept zooming me from a distance and we maintained a conversation until about 7k. Ash and I had a lot of fun times partying in Eloy. He and Kitty sold me their trailer for almost nothing because I was living in the bunkhouse at the time. Ash, I will always remember you as the man who saved my life. I became stronger as a person knowing you. Because of your love and compassion I am here today. Blue Skies.
  3. Skydiving is a small world but today it became even smaller. I heard that one of the managers that work for me lost a friend this weekend. I went and talked to her and found out she is best friends with Rosrigo's wife. They were having a service tonight in Roswell. I have not jumped in a couple of years. The last time I jumped was at STF and Hans was my AFF Instructor back in 2000. I was able to comfort her I hope a little by talking about the sport. Blue Skies, Rodrigo. Yeimi tod me about you trying to get her husband into skydiving. I will take over and get him and her to at least make a tandem.
  4. RIP, Uncle Leo. Sorry for your loss Michele.
  5. I was there that day. That was one of the funniest things I have ever seen. I think Scott (camera flyer with the goatee back then) shot the video. I had a chance to see Muppet again in Eloy at the Christmas Boogie and we laughed about it. Funniest thing was as he was getting on the plane he announced, "I'm going to swoop the bushes" so we all stayed there and watched. Blue Skies Muppet.
  6. No, but I did stay in a Holiday Inn Express last night.
  7. I agree. I did a lot of damage myself but after I met him I lost my car, my belongings in my car, my money and my mind. Luckily I got my mind back and have bought new stuff! I will cherish the memories forever!
  8. I wouldn't say my life but most definetly a few years.

  11. Good but can't look back at the past too long need to look forward. I do love Ray Charles though.
  12. Oprak link. Listen to the song don't hate posting Oprah on DZ.com. http://www.oprah.com/article/world/peopleandpolitics/pkginauguration/20090119_tows_americassong Great song!

  14. I am interested to see what Kirk Verner brings to the table. I have a high respect for him.
  15. Goggles like Frenchy68? http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?username=Frenchy68;
  16. It is magic marker we may never know who it is, Or, it may be a tattoo.
  17. They are looking for presentation skills because they want people who are not afraid to stand in front of crowds and teach canopy courses. I admire what they are doing. Jerry Seinfeld on public speaking... "“According to most studies, people's number one fear is public speaking. Number two is death. Death is number two. Does that sound right? This means to the average person, if you go to a funeral, you're better off in the casket than doing the eulogy.” It is not all about how far can swoop. It is about not making an ass out of yourself and misrepresenting the company.
  18. Speaking for Frenchy since he is not on... Absinthe or BoozenSammiches
  19. Please explain. Sounds delicious.
