You'll do great! Maybe braids? TPM Sister #102

What?! They refer to it as "DORKZONE?" I'm shattered. I'm not going to argue with you any further. You and I will just have to disagree. I didn't say anything about policing things or running things my way. I just told you what I respect the most, and I do think it's a matter of taking responsibility for your own actions and your own jumps--which can sometimes endanger other people, whether it has to do with being under the influence or anything else. But on the other hand, just because there's a spin off jumping community of "dark side jumpers" doesn't mean I have to agree with them, either. Really, it doesn't come as a news flash to me that not all skydivers see it "my way" and that not all skydivers are as pure as the driven snow. I suspect I like a lot of them, too. It still doesn't mean I'd want to jump with them if they were under the influence or that I would condone it if they did. TPM Sister #102

Yawn ... As far as I'm concerned, I'm a lot more impressed with people who can jump well *without* a performance enhancer--especially when their "enhancer" might put everyone else on the load at risk. Yawn all you want, but whether they are considered world class skydivers or just the next guy on the load, it doesn't make it a safe decision to jump under the influence. The sport is dangerous enough without raising the stakes that way. TPM Sister #102

LOL--the ultimate in optimism! But, hey, I'm willing to try it. (Don't they launch hot air balloons from there? Someone needs to start a business for hot air balloon jumps there.) TPM Sister #102

It's a HAPPY place! I think I'll hide in here for a while. If only we had ocean sunsets in Colorado. I will settle for a mountain view! TPM Sister #102

Here, Lassie! TPM Sister #102

Okay, so I can't say it's my FAVORITE car, but a good friend just bought a Mustang Shelby GT500 (or whatever it's properly called) and I got my first ride in it today. Oh, my.

I love that commercial! Hippity hop, some with a limp . . . so what's that? Hippity flop? TPM Sister #102

I agree that these are the two scenarios in which you are most likely to actually hear the words said aloud. Apart from that, though, I also agree that you can love people without being IN love with them and it doesn't have to be in a someone-getting-jilted context. I love one of my former bosses like a father figure, but I'm not IN love with him and I certainly would never have the occasion to announce that to him. He would think I was absolutely crazy if I said that! TPM Sister #102

No, no! I agree!! The PUPPY is adorable. (Did you open the attachment???) TPM Sister #102
-
Awwww! Tweetie! Little baby birds are precious, no matter how odd they look. I think there's a law about that somewhere. The puppy is adorable too, though! What a sweetheart. I hope she's someplace warm with all that flesh showing.

Can you imagine walking into the vet's office with that thing? I wonder how long it would take for them to decide that it's a dog and not something from a Stephen King movie. TPM Sister #102

I'll never have the same innocent, pre-conceived notions about you again! TPM Sister #102

I dunno . . . it takes a special person to be able to wear a rig and only a rig. Thank goodness they didn't use this as the photo requirement for the belly-off! TPM Sister #102

. . . he said reassuringly, but with a gleam in his eye. TPM Sister #102

Yeah, well, I started out at horrified and now I've just managed to hit a nice stride of fear and dread. The_Don just HAD to go and wonder about something like this. TPM Sister #102

I used to think I could be brave about stuff like that. Now I know better. TPM Sister #102

There's just something about having a deadline that makes the anticipation that much worse. TPM Sister #102

I don't know . . . on second thought, drunkenness might make it better. At least then, you'd have an excuse. But my mental images aren't improved at all. Edited to add: Delete all PMs received between now and the end of the week . . . or early next week, just to be safe. TPM Sister #102

Oh, no, no, no, no, NO! No mental images of hundreds of dz.commers sitting around posting naked (all but for their rigs)--or worse, drunk posting while naked and in their rigs. Arrrggggghhhhhh!!! TOO LATE! TPM Sister #102

What is the stupidest thing you have ever done?
Jewels replied to freeflychris's topic in The Bonfire
Are you seeking therapy for this? (Oh, and if they have any little happy pills that fix the dz.com problem, pick some up for me and we won't take them together.) TPM Sister #102 -
I didn't look at it like that until now. It was a happy ending.
-
Nice. What a lovely happy ending! More people should feel that way . . . and then be willing to act on it. TPM Sister #102

Aww, I'm so sorry! They look like little sweethearts. No more pig's ears! TPM Sister #102

Glad you escaped without any more damage than that. It could've been expensive. TPM Sister #102
