Tonto ... It was a priviledge to have known you and to have flown with you. There are no words to express our sadness and loss at your passing and also no words to thank you for the advice, chats and laughs. Our DZ will never be the same again. Fly high dear friend and blue skies always ..... Our hearts go out to Taya, Cayleigh and the lil one. You are in out thoughts and prayers. All our love Bev, Mike, Bailey, Samantha and Jessica Minds are like parachutes -- they only function when open. -- Thomas Dewar

Thank you all so much for sharing you wisdom, time and positive attitudes with those of us more inexperienced jumpers :-) Tonto, Peej and all the people I have spoken to ... I cannot thank you enough for sharing your time. I have, after 6 tandems, finally decided that I will do my AFF. The tandem I did yesterday absolutely BLEW my mind and for the first time in my life, I was disappointed to touch ground. Tonto, your "fly-by" was ^%#$#@# amazing and I still get "goosies" every time I think about it! Thanks you soooooooooo much. I am a lucky gal to share the skies with the peeps that I do at JSC!

Hiya Pierre Yep we have static line progression here as well...I am just too chicken chit to do it right now ha ha ha I know Marius!! Very cool oke and cameraman. I will pass on your regards and I will check out your T-shirts too!! regards and blue skies Bev Minds are like parachutes -- they only function when open. -- Thomas Dewar

Howdy Dale Ha ha ha....emphasis on "had" you confused! Your folks are awesome by the way! Very nice peeps. First solo? erm, um, *cough cough* did you not see me almost kill the tandem Master on my last landing? He he he ... I know that concentrating on pulling the toggles does not mean you automatically put your feet down before your TM! Seriously though....two more tandems and I want to redo the AFF course

*cough cough* erm ... me. It has lots of Skydiving stickers on it so I guess that elevates it's status a lil bit har har Minds are like parachutes -- they only function when open. -- Thomas Dewar

Grab it! Nothing like the smell of a brand new car. Drive it off the floor and trade it in on something else

I definitely have to agree with you on this one....different people, different situations (or same) different reactions Minds are like parachutes -- they only function when open. -- Thomas Dewar

hmmm... 1.) sounds like she is fishing for info? 2.) she is guilty of something herself? No way does "i would forgive you" really mean that! Believe me when I quote the old adage...."hell hath no fury like a woman scorned" Good luck Minds are like parachutes -- they only function when open. -- Thomas Dewar

Hiya Elmo....try "Crazy" by Gnarles Barkly (I put the lyrics below for ya. Peej used it formy DVD and it was awesomely apt :-) Crazy I remember when, I remember, I remember when I lost my mind There was something so pleasant about that phase. Even your emotions had an echo In so much space And when you're out there Without care, Yeah, I was out of touch But it wasn't because I didn't know enough I just knew too much Does that make me crazy Does that make me crazy Does that make me crazy Probably And I hope that you are having the time of your life But think twice, that's my only advice Come on now, who do you, who do you, who do you, who do you think you are, Ha ha ha bless your soul You really think you're in control Well, I think you're crazy I think you're crazy I think you're crazy Just like me My heroes had the heart to lose their lives out on a limb And all I remember is thinking, I want to be like them Ever since I was little, ever since I was little it looked like fun And it's no coincidence I've come And I can die when I'm done Maybe I'm crazy Maybe you're crazy Maybe we're crazy Probably Minds are like parachutes -- they only function when open. -- Thomas Dewar

LOL at you! Yeah under canopy for me too Oh hell, you name it....I will be scared of it! I must be schizo cos one half of me say's "go for it gal, you are gonna love it" and the other half is saying "just you try it and I will show you what'll happen" Minds are like parachutes -- they only function when open. -- Thomas Dewar
