In this case, the media did something wrong in order to achieve a just end*** an excellent illustration of the principle of double effect. I miss Lee. And JP. And Chris. And...

So maybe this should be in G&R, but hey... So I just bought my very first brand spankin new rig. I figured winter is a good time to buy, since I can afford to wait the 8 weeks it's going to take to make it. It's a Wings container, Fusion main, Super Raven reserve, Vigil AAD, Bonehead helmet, etc. etc. Everything Royal Blue, Navy Blue, White. Can't wait. I've really struggled w/ the idea of getting back into the sport. As many of you know, I have 4 kids. I've gone round and round in my head about is it ok to jump, should I give it up for their sake, etc. We've all seen those threads. The clincher for me was my wife... she totally gave me her blessing... "if it's what you want to do, if you do everything you can to be safe, have safe gear, go ahead. It's fine with me." The only thing we disagree on is WHEN. She didn't want me to charge the rig, but I didn't want to wait... I'm sure none of you ever have a problem delaying gratification, right? And my kids are jazzed about it too. The thing is, I don't want to live w/ regret any longer... I always wanted to be a pilot. It didn't happen. So when I was introduced to skydiving, it fulfilled a dream for me. And since I've been out of it for a while, I can't shake it. the longing for the sky is tenacious. We're big on telling our kids about following their dreams, seeking out their wants, desires, longings, skills. It's time I take my own words to heart again and get back in the sky. So... in mid-Feb, I should have pictures to share... It's not my first rig, so no there, but it's my first NEW rig, so definately I miss Lee. And JP. And Chris. And...

i'm just givin you shit girl, no sweat... have a GREAT trip to cali! KNOCK'EM DEAD! and I don't mind if it's used... (j/k, yes, I mind) I miss Lee. And JP. And Chris. And...

oh he sure did... and it was over a doozie too... i've come close but I usually just push the boundaries a little so that billvon will engage me in a little e-BDSM. edit... btw, you certainly are beautiful. I miss Lee. And JP. And Chris. And...

Very nice gallery, thanks for sharing. I miss Lee. And JP. And Chris. And...

i'm just dying to hear this... SOTL was my favorite movie. anyone gotta copy of it they can post? I miss Lee. And JP. And Chris. And...

I live in Germany, there are a few good rates from Frankfurt also... you just need to book very early to get a really cheap flight. I think I should spend more of my skydiving holidays in GA or FL. gotta go, 3:30 AM over here... *yawn* lots o skydiving in GA and FL for sure... good night and again, congrats! I miss Lee. And JP. And Chris. And...

Hmmm...you know, if I can make a full sized weapon disappear on my body wearing normal clothes, it wouldn't be too hard to dress around a Desert Eagle. Then again, then you would have to carry that heavy piece of crap. I'll stick with my Kimber of baby Glock or my...well, you get the idea. me too... that's why i got the kimber ultra carry... small yet very accurate and powerful... and as backup, a kel-tel .32 (VERY tiny). I miss Lee. And JP. And Chris. And...

I cried with the birth of each of my four kids. Not even the overwhelming joy of the best skydive or anything else compares to the wonders of being a father. If your neice is in ATL, you can get good fares from the UK to ATL. Just watch for good rates. And if you travel for work like I do, save those frequent flier miles. Or, instead of jumping as much, sacrifice one jump here or there and put it to the "neice visit" fund. It's so worth it. I miss Lee. And JP. And Chris. And...

LM mother fucking AO!!! I miss Lee. And JP. And Chris. And...

not directed specifically at you LMW, or RL, but as you all know, having 4 kids myself, and having a wife w/ a chronic, debilitating disease, I've often wondered, what would I do if one of my children came down w/ such a condition? I don't know how I'd cope. At least I know my wife has fulfilled most of her life dreams (becoming a teacher, mother, marrying her true love *moi* , doing a tandem, seeing the Pope, etc.) It is still heartbreaking to see my wife's health slowly deteriorate, but to see it happen to a young child, so full of hope and promise, with so many visions and dreams, is especially tragic. my wife comes from an especially large family. one of her aunts had a son who was killed in a car accident. another close friend of her family had a grade school daughter who was playing in the woods. a tree limb fell, hitting her in the head, killing her. when you see the parents of both these kids, there's something... different... about them... a stoicism, a... a... something. I can't put my finger on it. it's like part of their soul has died and cannot be revived. I pray it never happens to me or any of you to have your children pass before you do. I miss Lee. And JP. And Chris. And...

your father should have pulled out early. I miss Lee. And JP. And Chris. And...
