    Angelee? Yep bumped into her once or twice...actually she was a lot of fun. We went out to eat with a group from the camp and got to talk. I don't remember her from Skyfest, but for some reason that particular weekend has been erased from memory! Blue skies, Jim

    Yes we did! You were there? Damn I missed meeting a lot of .commers... Blue skies, Jim

    I learned that the first 4 seconds of a floating formation exit from a trail plane are the most important part of the approach! I learned that you will sometimes have to fight your grip partner to maintain your position in your slot! I learned that Remy, Karen, Val, Wendy, and many other dz.commers are great people!

    Val it was great finally meeting you, Remy and his wife at the BWC. Hang in there a little longer and we'll all see you Wednesday evening. Blue skies, Jim

    If you say to yourself "I think I can make it back!" you can't. Pick out your alternative landing area(s). or A long walk back is better than no walk at all. Blue skies, Jim

    Saw a video where the camera flyer's helmet comes off on deployment and he catches it with his feet! Couldn't believe the old guy had such good reflexes! ...right Josh? Blue skies, Jim

    Have a great time! I don't get to jump with Trent often enough these days, but when I do we have the best time. Those memories will last forever. Blue skies, Jim

    Some people over 70 are in better shape than a lot of us in our 50s. I recently had the opportunity to see Lew Sanborn run across the landing area smiling the whole way. I don't believe there should be an age limit. Each dz should make a decision based on the individuals condition both physically and mentally. We have sent far more younger people than older folks bowling because the younger students did not seem to be mentally aware on the ground or in the air. Blue skies, Jim

    There are RV hookups available next to the pond, but they are limited. Please call 281-369-3337 to reserve your slot. See you there. Blues, Jim Blue skies, Jim

    Jerry, Tim and Steve are both at Spaceland today for the Lew Sanborn Accuracy meet and I asked them if they had a copy. Steve said he has one and Time said he wished he had one. I will talk to Eric about dumping the video to a cd and let you know when it's ready. Blues, Blue skies, Jim

    Hey Chris! How are you. We didn't meet up at Dublin, did you make it there? Planning on being at WFFC again. Guess we'll have to wait till then to jump together. Blues, Jim Blue skies, Jim

    Wrong again professor! Reread what I have said over and over. There are some benefits I agree we should pay like funding defense, interstate highways, treaty negotiations, the judiciary, customs and immigration, the CDC, NASA, etc. What I disagree with is paying for social programs that do nothing but create a dependency on a welfare state; handouts, greed, promiscuity, fraud, laziness, sloth and a myriad of other traits that do nothing to make society better. If that's what you support, then maybe you should pack up and move to the nearest socialist country that more closely matches your ideas...say Venezuela! I hear they really love college professors there. Blue skies, Jim

    ??? Nice try so let me rephrase for you. I strongly diagree with you that taxes are "dues". (Don't know why you brought this up in a discussion about taxation, but) And why not? I believe they apply to me and equally to you. Should we the people not be consulted when they are being interpreted in a manner that impacts us? Or do you want to allow someone else to do that for you? Be careful what you ask for... Blue skies, Jim

    Umhhh....oops, how about fast fingers? No wait, scratch that, how about....oh forget it. You beat me with your post. No wait, I didn't mean that either... Blue skies, Jim

    I don't think they made happy kid movies when I was a kid! Don't remember any. Old Yeller was my favorite, but I only saw it once cause of the ending. Blue skies, Jim

    Ok now ya'll have done it. All the dweebs are photoshoping your order right now! Blue skies, Jim

    And it's still a question, why? I've lugged mine around just on the chance I would get to jump somewhere, sometime. I'm going to work out of state and flying in the client's jet. Bet those pilots will be surprised when I carry my rig on board. Blue skies, Jim

    Why is it even a question? Blue skies, Jim

    Although not exactly newbies, they were new to us. Had several jumpers from San Marcos show up who wanted to do "larger" formations. Everyone pitched in and kept them busy with 6, 8-ways on Saturday, then on Sunday we did a 23-way and a 22-way with video. A lot of the freeflyers including Yoshi, his brother, and Anomaly were in the third row of the Texas star and the side-by-side zippers that we turned. They had a great time! Blue skies, Jim
