    Happy Birthday. I'd join you for a stiff drink, but I'm grading tests and a lot of what my students do is pretty hard to figure out sober sometimes. hmmmmmmm, Maybe a drink would help. "safety first... and What the hell..... safety second, Too!!! " ~~jmy POPS #10490

    Get used to waiting. As a student, you're liable to do a lot of it. "safety first... and What the hell..... safety second, Too!!! " ~~jmy POPS #10490

    0:2:0 Nor in Idaho!!! It was cloudy, breezy and somewhere around 40 degrees if you didn't consider wind chill, but I did get two hop n'pops.

    Coming with a book of instructions in not a good thing. Better get another bottle of wine before preceeding. :) "safety first... and What the hell..... safety second, Too!!! " ~~jmy POPS #10490

    I knew it was too, but i opened mine very carefully NOT over the garbage can. I like that sparkly stuff, but I just don't know what to do with it. "safety first... and What the hell..... safety second, Too!!! " ~~jmy POPS #10490

    I got some too and I really like shiny sparkly stuff unlike a certain greenie around these parts. OH, but LisaH tells me that it is confetti, not glitter. I guess she should know "safety first... and What the hell..... safety second, Too!!! " ~~jmy POPS #10490

    Going and doing a tandem was an extra credit field trip for a physics class I was taking. I had heard of people making tandem jumps from time to time, but it never occured to me that people jumped out of airplanes for fun on a regular basis. One tandem and the rest is history. 16 months later, 225 jumps and my C license. Thinking back to much younger years, I realize now that I had always been fascinated with flight and with climbing up on high things, jumping out of swings, riding my bike down hills fast, I don't know why or when all those youthful delights fell out of my life, but when I fell out of that airplane that day, my delight in speed, adventure and fun sure came bubbling up again. I wish I had discovered the sport years ago, but since I can't go back in time and change things, I'll settle for being very, very glad I decided I wanted to learn a bit of physics. :) "safety first... and What the hell..... safety second, Too!!!

    ):2: I was going to say "only two jumps" but from the looks of this thread, I think it should be "Woo hoo,!!! Two jumps!!!!" Beer owed for first jump on my C license (or for getting it) "safety first... and What the hell..... safety second, Too!!! " ~~jmy POPS #10490

    Happy Birthday

    I'd reather be bowling. I'm grading a mountain of math tests......... Well, I was until I wandered over to my computer. But, I better get back to the tests. I wanna jump tomorrow. Can't waste a sunny afternoon this time of year. "safety first... and What the hell..... safety second, Too!!! " ~~jmy POPS #10490

    You'd think I'd know better than to look at a thread with a title like this. sheesh...... "safety first... and What the hell..... safety second, Too!!! " ~~jmy POPS #10490

    All kinds of math.... sometimes theoretical meandrings, sometimes stuff like figuing out how much quicker I can get to where I'm going at different speeds while I'm driving. "safety first... and What the hell..... safety second, Too!!! " ~~jmy POPS #10490

    Shush you two. How am I going to get him to come here and jump if you keep that up? But I suppose with a 27 foot trailer, going I-5 might be better. 95 really isn't all that bad though by this time of year. I'd really probably take I-5 to about Klamath Falls and then 395 all the way to 12. I guess he could come back through here. "safety first... and What the hell..... safety second, Too!!!

    The Columbia Gorge along can be nasty this time of year and from Fozz's area 80 to 95 really isn't out of the way. Besides, if he comes this way, I might get to jump with him. "safety first... and What the hell..... safety second, Too!!! " ~~jmy POPS #10490

    Uh, if you come this way (or go home this way) on a weekend, there should be jumping at Star. I'd round up the locals for ya.

    Haven't played in a while, but sure. "safety first... and What the hell..... safety second, Too!!! " ~~jmy POPS #10490

    Yep

    Jumping with you has always been a very postitive experience, even when I didn't accomplish what I had planned or messed up something (little that low opening at Prairie). I learned and had fun and that's really important. I hope to do the same for people I jump with after i get my coach rating. "safety first... and What the hell..... safety second, Too!!!

    36.48915% - Major Geek Somehow, I figured I score in that range. lol "safety first... and What the hell..... safety second, Too!!! " ~~jmy POPS #10490

    I don't really have a definition, but I recognize one when I meet one. Try someone who at nine or ten years old, alphabetizes the books on her bookshelves. Yeah, I did. I also like doing math problems for fun. (my students seem to think I have a strange idea of fun.) "safety first... and What the hell..... safety second, Too!!! " ~~jmy POPS #10490
