I think mine got lost! just to be sure I'll repost it here ^_^ http://katina108.com/personalpics/Kittykatorginal.jpg

yeap.. I've gotten lots of those today as well.... espiecally from my friend who's doing his first skydive next season (in exchange for me quitting smoking) then my mother calls me at work.... that's never fun.

We have an EMT who actually jumps, it's great having him there, and in turn we have a good relationship with the EMTs They even helped out on our year end video ^_^ Sucks that political stuff gets in the way of good care. I hope that you guys can get that straighten out, that is extremely unprofessional on the part of the EMTs

How do you throw him... I just keep getting tossed in the ditch

712!

"I have to use the facilities" Dont know why I started saying that... but I did, and it's stuck for a while now.

I did that too!! Got Skydive! with some tribal around it on my lower back aka Tramp stamp ^_^

Hint - the town in the background is Ottawa, Illinois. why does that not surprise me ^_^

I used to play Laser Tag quite frequently... mind you this is back in high school. LaserQuest, pretty much largest corporation of Laser Tag in America. I traveled all around NA to play. The fun we had. Usually if you sit in a chair, the pack vibrates right on that sweet spot ANYHOOS.. it's a lot of fun. Best way to play, keep moving!! make your targets hard to hit!

I have 5, you'll see the attached below of the first four. I haven't gotten a pic of the 5th one yet. just got it in July. It's a tramp stamp.... it says SKYDIVE! with tribal around it. my husband loves to say "I'm gonna put on my parachute and skydive" oh yeah... all but the thigh tattoo were taken with a really shoddy digital camera years ago.

C-130!!! it's always been dream of mine to do one of those, since watching my dad do it when I was a kid. (they wont let me into the military )

Well someone bought it.... not sure who it is. I don't really know how to look for that stuff on E-bay I don't really use it.

Someone once asked Travolta what was in the briefcase. His answer: "A light bulb and a bunch of batteries." Actually it's suppose to be the big boss dude's soul.

I actually had to do a report on that movie in my humanities clas.... about stuff on globalization. I didn't care for it at all, I didn't understand it. What was the point of running away from the laser guns?! Like they were getting shot at for real? I dunno it really confused me.

This question just popped into my head... How'd you get your nickname at the DZ? Mine? Well I actually had mine before I started jumping. I played MMO's (online video games) I had two characters that I played all the time Katina- Everquest Sky-en- Star Wars Galaxies I had a real life friend who played both those games with me and she would call me SkyKat. She came out to the DZ a few times, and called me that.. and that name stuck ^_^

Thanks for all the replies guys!! I really appreciate it. Right now I'm just grabbing footage. Then I plan to put it into movie maker and go from there. I definately think I'll make it like a story, and I'll try as much as possible to get everyone in!

Well my only real out landing is jump number 17, yeah I only have 45 now.. but hey I have an out story. It was a monday morning.. Clouds covered the sky, but they looked high so we took our tandem up.there was NO wind on the ground what so ever. So at about 2,000 feet our pilot(and DZO) says there's about a 30 MPH out of the south (south winds suck for us cause there's a tree line directly south of the LZ that cause some poopy turbulance) The rigger and I tried to do a two way. He gets out the door and I'm still inside the C-206. We exit and we're smacked with ice crystals. I freak and let go of my bud, and I back slid and we both knew the jump was screwed right then. We flipped on his back, and I just keep going belly to earth going, "ow ow ow ow ow" Anyways, our spot was good, a good mile south of the LZ. Well my stupid butt heads right back towards the airport. then turn into the wind and get pushed backwards. after quite a while of going oh shit oh shit oh shit. I'm over forest... more oh shits.. I see the only clearing in this forest, and spiraled down to it, had to do low turns so I could make it in. I landed right NEXT to a tree... the canopy kept going and landed in the tree. So then 20 mins of getting the canopy out of the tree... then walking in a circle trying to figure out where I was... walked across a river... then came to our airport manager putting out turkey traps.... He doesn't like us all that much... but he gave me a ride back and we called it after that. The only people that made it to the DZ were the rigger and the vidiot. Tandem and I landed out...but Tandem was closer than I was ^_^

So I work at a very small DZ, who has a strong family feel to it. Anyhoos, our video guy had to take off early this year and didn't get to our year end video. So being the nice person I am I said I would put one together. I have MSN movie maker, and I'm going through lots of little video cassett tapes and grabbing clips and putting them on my computer. The only thing I'm stumped on is how to put it together. I need an outline of sorts. What should I put first.. last.. etc etc etc? Any suggestions would be most helpful!

I work at Central Michigan Skydivers, and I absolutely love my DZ. So I took some pictures this year, and I FINALLY got around to uploading them. I stuck them in an album, for all to see http://skykat.blogs.friendster.com/photos/skydiving/ Not sure if this is the right forum to put this is... but I figure this one was pretty default.. ya know?

ooooh yeeeaaaahhh I'm the coolest fish in this joint

of course it's layered... it has to be layered for the border and the lettering... but I do think this is photoshoped, the back arm and front leg... don't look quite right....

Someone posted it on another forum I read... I think the guy in thebackground is playing a game and not porm ^_^

Our TI is from south africa.. very good guy, did all of his learning down there... I don't know how many years ago... like 30 i think... anyways... It's a good place ^_^

oh yeah! I remember that... I did a speech on skydiving, and I had to put some history into it. Didn't he drop his dog too?
