  1. With the SDR crew on site......who is organizing the Hold Em Tourney? .......I hereby reject your reality and instead choose to insert my own!
  2. While I do indeed live in Jacksonville, FL...... I should be in around 7 or 8 pm on Friday night, it's a small tent so not much space. I will arrive with a full cooler......and a bottle of Palatka Blue Water, if you have not had the pleasure, I will save you a shot. Any food near by? .......I hereby reject your reality and instead choose to insert my own!
  3. That would have been funny....if you were Tom! I can take the critism, no problem and agree that the people are among the best in the world. 90% of my friends today are skydivers and I would not have it any other way. Perhaps the term "scaring myself" is a bad phrase. We all went after that first jump to get the adrenaline rush........so not so much scaring myself as it is seeking that same 1st jump feeling again. I also agree that you never stop learning in this sport, there are many avenues that I can follow, certain rating to get....etc Maybe time off is the answer which is no problem right now.........work is in the way. I took a year off after I found out I was a type 1 Diebetic to get myself strait and I put on a safety harness at work and got that old familar feeling and hit the DZ the following weekend. Either way thanks for the suggestions.......I will be at another Boogie in a couple weeks with a fist full of jump tickets, hope to see some of you there. .......I hereby reject your reality and instead choose to insert my own!
  4. Do we need to register or sign up for a camping spot or is it first come first serve? .......I hereby reject your reality and instead choose to insert my own!
  5. No pyro but we did rig some large aicraft landing lights on some Protecs and did night CrW...... That was alot of fun! .......I hereby reject your reality and instead choose to insert my own!
  6. I do love the Darwin awards! Hell I nominate the fam damily! .......I hereby reject your reality and instead choose to insert my own!
  7. So as I sit and sip my tasty beverage I must ask.....how do you deal with getting bored in this sport? For those that do not think that it can happen, just ask someone, it happens. I used to just try to scare myself and get the heart pumping but that does not do it anymore. I was hooked from the start but spent many years doing tandem videos and i do blame that for some of the boredom but now I can do what I want and find myself just wanting to hang out and it seems that the nightly Bonfire is becoming a lost art. Maybe I am getting too old for this? I work on the road so I get to visit alot of different DZ's and am still making new friends everywhere I go. I just seem to have lost that spark that made me wake up at 6am on a Saturday to get my butt to the DZ............. So what do you have to do to stay interested? .......I hereby reject your reality and instead choose to insert my own!

  9. OK......I will be driving up from Springfield, MO.......anyone need a ride? .......I hereby reject your reality and instead choose to insert my own!
  10. NO.......THANK YOU......for organizing such a good boogie! That is a thankless job that requires alot of work. I had a great time and met several new friends and hope to see some again at the Redemtion Boogie....I already have the tent so why not! I wish I could have done more but my back was killing me! .......I hereby reject your reality and instead choose to insert my own!
  11. The weather forcast is looking good! .......I hereby reject your reality and instead choose to insert my own!
  12. As long as work does not get in the way I'll be there Friday night with a fully loaded cooler! .......I hereby reject your reality and instead choose to insert my own!
  13. I made the short trip down today and met the crew! Very friendly DZ, they all welcomed me in right away and made me feel at home. Come on down, this should be a fun boogie! .......I hereby reject your reality and instead choose to insert my own!
  14. That is some serious B.S. I am guessing that there will be several abulance chasers involved with this one. I wonder if that works both ways.......12 years ago I worked alot of OT that I never got paid for........I'll start typing up the invoice! .......I hereby reject your reality and instead choose to insert my own!
  15. Looks good! If my FTP ever wears out I'll buy a new one but it's still going strong after many years of abuse. Quality is outstanding! Forgot to add........I still have a Full Box in the closet for rainy days! .......I hereby reject your reality and instead choose to insert my own!
  16. "Trust Me!!" but my all time favorite that an S&TA said to me is; "I should ground you cause you looked LOW........but the trees got in the way and I could not tell where you opened." .......I hereby reject your reality and instead choose to insert my own!
  17. Well.......give him the phonebook so he can get an apliance repairman on the phone..........cause the dishwasher is making alot of noise right now and all the damn spoons are dirty. .......I hereby reject your reality and instead choose to insert my own!
  18. You could call them and try to work out a deal. I totaled a rental car.......although my AMEX took care of it. If you are worried about your credit.........you might want to pay it. .......I hereby reject your reality and instead choose to insert my own!
  19. I must bump until Airwarto posts another Captain story!
  20. OK I'm sorry but that is funny!!!!! .......I hereby reject your reality and instead choose to insert my own!

    lowest pulled

    Now remember kiddies....."To each his own" The lowest if I remember right............was around 700'......although I drank alot after that so I may be off by a hundred feet or so. Other than that I'd say I start my deployment procedure by 2001 feet........normally the neptune indicates a deployment around 1200-1400, and we all know that those things are not exactly right. Now I do not recommend this behavior...........but it is fun at times......wait........who packed this thing last???? .......I hereby reject your reality and instead choose to insert my own!
  22. Odd enough I just happen to be working up in Springfield right now....... count me in! .......I hereby reject your reality and instead choose to insert my own!
  23. While I do not yet qualify as "old timer" that is the same type of static line progression I went through in 1997. 2 static lines 3 PRCP's on static line followed by the first freefall .......I hereby reject your reality and instead choose to insert my own!
  24. http://www.dropzone.com/videos/Miscellaneous/Airgasm..._1635.html I had alot of people asking for this since skydivingmovies.com is offline. Here ya go.............I wonder if more woman figured this out how much tandem buisness would increase...... AIRGASM .......I hereby reject your reality and instead choose to insert my own!
  25. This thread deserves a shameless bump back to the top...........maybe that will jog some memories! .......I hereby reject your reality and instead choose to insert my own!
