Molly Mazda. My daughter named her. She's a 2002 Tribute. She's in the body shop now because an F'n tree fell on her during a snow/ice storm. A rarity in Seattle. Rhonda

Inury. Broken femur. It was a while but my leg never fully recovered. I still have a pretty bad limp and in rain/cold, it hurts like hell. Rhonda

I got a new computer (don't have it set up yet), a gift certificate for 10 sessions with a personal trainer at my club, perfume, a necklace, a couple tempur-pedic pillows, some clothes, some little flower fairie figurines (I collect Fairies) some gift certificates from Bed Bath and Beyond, a new set of kitchen knives, and an antique Persian lamp made of brass that you put candles in. Pretty good year. Rhonda

I didn't take this picture. Ken Hiatt did. But it is of my friend Theresa doing her first tandem and I think it is the best tandem pic I've ever seen. The eyes tell it all. I hope you can see them in this resized version. Rhonda

I remember watching number 3 on the news. If that's the one that happened in Seattle a few years ago. Pretty sure it is. Rhonda

That was funny. I'm glad I had head phones on though. Rhonda

Check out xbox.com for a full list. Did I happen to mention that my husband is a game developer for XBOX? Rhonda

It's awfully hard to delete a post once it's posted to most internet forums. I did a lot of back tracking on a post I made last year about a movie that was being released with skydiving in it. The movie company didn't want any publicity at that time. In my defense, I was asked to post it by the skydivers in the movie but it still caused me a lot of headaches. I also happened upon an article I had written for DZ.com in a magazine from Germany. I only recognized it by the photos and names in it. The by line was a dead give away. :-) Skydiving once published some pictures of mine but along with them they also published some that I didn't take but gave me credit for. I apologized to the real photographer and sent him a check for the amount that I received for the photos plus had Skydiving print a correction the next month. Gosh am I rambling or what? I'm just glad to be back after spending 8 months in a "No internet" job. Pretty tough when you are web developer. Rhonda

That made me nausious!!! Brings back memories of seeing my own leg twisted in a position that was totally un-natural. OUCH!!!!!! Rhonda

You go Girl! I would have done the exact same thing. Rhonda

Oh my God! I am so sorry you had to witness something like this. My prayers go out to you and to the families of all the victims. What a horrible thing to have to live with. Everyone be careful out there. The holidays are a bad enough time to be behind the wheel. "Tis the season to drive like idiots" Don't add drunkeness into the equation. Rhonda

Is it just me or is Vanilla Coke freaking AWSOME!
SkyDolphin replied to Viking's topic in The Bonfire
I fondly refer to it as Vanilla Crack. It's that addictive. Rhonda -
Virginia Rail Express can get you into DC pretty quick from as far out as Manassas. The MD rail is also pretty good and of course Metro runs on all sides of the city. I've lived in both Silver Spring, MD, Sterling, VA and Manassas, VA. I didn't like Silver Spring at all. Too close to the city for me but Gaithersburg/Germantown or even Frederick, MD are nice. The commute from Frederick wouldn't be great. Although it's fairly close to the Chambersburg, PA DZ.. The commute to Skydive VA and/or Skydive Orange is really good from Manassas and Manassas is a decent place to live. Is Hartwood Parachute center still open? It's even closer to Manassas and isn't horrible if you just want to get a jump in and not spend the hole day at the DZ. WHAT AM I SAYING!!!! I've been to about every DZ in the 4 state area. PA, MD, VA, NC Rhonda Rhonda

I heard once that Snapple uses bug parts for coloring. Should look that one up on Snopes. I'm glad to see that so many people have found Snopes. I have been a fan of that site for years. Rhonda

That same Concorde is now residing in Seattle at Boeings Museum of Flight. I can't wait to go see it. Rhonda

So what replaced it? Please don't tell me they tore down the party room! I just went to a Day of the Dead/Halloween party there Saturday night. It was cold as hell and wet from all the rain/snow but an awesome space for parties. Had a blast. Rhonda

Just a reminder that the Flyboyz Film Festival (X FEST) starts today at Perris Valley. If you are in the area, be sure to stop by Perris and register for the festival. It's going to the best yet and that is saying something. Rhonda

Sadly, it's the nature of the post 9/11 world we live in to think of terrorism in some capacity when we see something devastating happen in this country. Whether we think, "Gosh, I hope it wasn't an act ot terrorism." or "Gee, I wonder if people are going to expect terrorism.", the fact of the matter is, terrorism is and will be on all our minds for a long time to come.

Sometime in 1999. I had the idea to do a website like this but dz.com beat me to it. I'm really glad now that someone else has the responsibility. Rhonda
