  1. Please, Scott, spill the beans! I was wondering the same!
  2. I second this. A year ago, he did a free coach jump at the Holiday boogie of me attempting to sit (videoed revealed that I held, for a solid 20+ seconds....a knee fly! ). He gave Grue the footage, who combined it with the Magic Carpet footage from Greg Gasson and TallGuy. I guess I owe Grue dinner too if I'm down in Oz. He recognized me this year and said hi. Nice guy. Re: safety wire - someone told me about this before. Still looks...crazy.
  3. TG, Have an address or something I can send a check to? I can't use PayPal right now. Thanks.
  4. I called in to Brian around nine and I had a beer in hand! I finally succumbed to a cold and my car is spontaneously dying on me unfortunately. Hopefully it will get fixed next week.
  5. Not a bad idea...the two Parachutist pages. Additionally, I was thinking Iwan could dedicate the Boogie DVD to them. Bare Min: some dedication mention in the credits. If more possible: pics and/or video. Maybe a slideshow type with some sentimental music like in skybytch's video similar to the slideshow at the end of the Parabatix video. If this is somehow a faux pas, then someone let me know.
  6. More of you need to move out to the north bay....besides the fact that I could sponge rides off people.
  7. Once, on the ride to altitude, I noticed that his Eclipse container said "Brad" on the ring cover. I asked him if he got it in Wisconsin. He has a puzzled look and didn't know what I was talking about. I had to explain him the meaning of "Brad from Wisconsin", you know, the random skydiver on your load at a boogie that you know nothing about and should have the "everyone's out to kill me" attitude. Kinda ruined the joke though that he didn't know.
  8. I echo all those sentiments Bonnie, Marcel and many others made. Love ya all as well. Hugs for everyone next time I make it to Byron. May be at least a few weeks though, as this month is way busy, I'm finally starting to get a cold and I have car trouble I need to get fixed before I drive more than a few miles away.
  9. Then maybe I'll call him in the evening...you know, be there in spirit. I thank Brian for calling me. I really appreciate the news...even if it is horrible news. I have something else and even if I were to flake, after the nightmarish experience driving back New Year's Eve, I don't trust my car to go to Walnut Creek. Raise one for me.
  10. I think they're great too and I only met (well, talked to, but seen him around the DZ at Davis, Byron and Eloy) Cliff twice!
  11. You're right...it was the other guy in that photo that needed the photogenic assistance.
  12. No need to stop posting pics, girl.... Hey, that last one made both of them actually look like respectable gentlemen!
  13. I only talked to the guy a couple of times, but he was a friendly enough guy. The most recent time was on 12/28 around noon before Evelyn and I fled the rain to jump at Perris 12/29. I was thinking, "Hey, that's a Davis guy...I think his name is Cliff. I'll go say hi." I definitely saw those rough qualities you spoke of, but I'm generally pretty thick-skinned unless people are just, well, dicks and don't stop. Blue Skies.
  14. Great pics, guys. Ficus, Those two really are sweet. Although I don't have anything super exciting to contribute, I miss the spiked fruit, his calm, friendly demeaner and his entertaining VCL. Memory Eternal and Blue Skies.
  15. Anther thanks here. Great photos.
  16. Thanks for the pic, Sandi. I don't think I have anything to add. Everyone else said it quite well. I'll miss you, Tommy D. Memory Eternal.

    I hate you now. The Getty was very nice though. No, you still don't need to call me back.
  21. Do a coach jump with an instructor. If you are uncomfortable, then talk to the instructor about it if you want something more remedial. Most importantly, TALK TO THE INSTRUCTOR.
  22. Evelyn and I met Don Swayze at Perris the other day (and Celeste too!). Nice guy. Celeste a nice gal too.
  23. I wasn't successful... I'm back in Santa Barbara and will be going to the Getty Museum with dad tomorrow. Perris is just too far away.
  24. I could trade him mine, but I don't want a Sabre2 that huge. Mine is a 120...
