  9. Oh, yeah. My grandma used to make it on a regular basis. "safety first... and What the hell..... safety second, Too!!! " ~~jmy POPS #10490
  10. Deedy and I chatted for a while and then realized you weren't with us. How's things this morning? I'm still avoiding working. I've checked all the weather sites I can think of and it looks like sunny but too windy for me tomorrow. Maybe next weekend......... "safety first... and What the hell..... safety second, Too!!!

  11. Where did you disappear to last night? I ran out of beer and headed for bed, apparently too early. "safety first... and What the hell..... safety second, Too!!! " ~~jmy POPS #10490
  12. I'll work on it......promise.... "safety first... and What the hell..... safety second, Too!!! " ~~jmy POPS #10490
  13. But I am pretty good at spilling when just drinking pop! I think I'm in trouble.... "safety first... and What the hell..... safety second, Too!!! " ~~jmy POPS #10490
  14. Oh, my...... and just how should I prepare??????? Edited to add: I just looked at the tread list and "Five levels of hangovers" is currently on top of this one. Is that a sign??? "safety first... and What the hell..... safety second, Too!!! " ~~jmy POPS #10490
  15. As much as I would just love to help clean up dog poop, I think I'll have to pass. Besides, I need to teach all the classes I can so I can afford to go to Lost Prairie. Teachers wages aren't the best in the world. "safety first... and What the hell..... safety second, Too!!! " ~~jmy POPS #10490
  16. Nope, don't want to trade. I've got the dog poop problem too and I haven't had enough day light to get it cleaned up yet. I have also discovered that the strawberries are starting to grow along with weeds, of course. I guess if I can't jump this weekend I better make some progress in dealing with that stuff. "safety first... and What the hell..... safety second, Too!!! " ~~jmy POPS #10490
  17. Well, it's amounted to about 1 jump every 2 or 3 weeks which is a damned hard way to learn. Not to mention, I don't even want to think about what the temperature was. It was in the low 20's on the ground so I know it had to be downright frigid at 10000 feet. (Farenheit by the way). I think I'm glad I didn't know how to read the winds aloft tables then. I can try to pretend it wasn't as cold as I think it was. "safety first... and What the hell..... safety second, Too!!! " ~~jmy POPS #10490
  18. I have never paid so much attention to weather in my life. When I lived in the mountains, I used to watch the temp so I knew what precautions to take to keep things from freezing, but this is a whole new ball game. I can hardly believe how my life revolves around the clouds and wind. You promise it's gonna clear???? At least the snow is finally gone from my yard. What I'd like to know is how did all the bulbs and stuff get 6 inches high already? "safety first... and What the hell..... safety second, Too!!! " ~~jmy POPS #10490
  19. It's sort of comforting to know I'm not the only one being plagued by rotten weather. "safety first... and What the hell..... safety second, Too!!! " ~~jmy POPS #10490
  20. After a few beers, it's better, but it would sure be great if the skies would clear and the wind would quit blowing. Is it some kind of rite of passage that beginning skydivers are plagued by bad weather????? "safety first... and What the hell..... safety second, Too!!! " ~~jmy POPS #10490
  21. I think we lost Lisa. She and Deedy called me and after a while, we didn't hear any more from her. "safety first... and What the hell..... safety second, Too!!! " ~~jmy POPS #10490
  22. What list? "safety first... and What the hell..... safety second, Too!!! " ~~jmy POPS #10490
  23. Yeah, it seems a little quiet around the Bonfire tonight. Well, I'll head to the kitchen for another and see if anyone else chimes in......there must be someone else sitting at home tonight!!!!! "safety first... and What the hell..... safety second, Too!!! " ~~jmy POPS #10490
  24. I think that not knowing what a person would want is part of the problem here. Without discussion with family, friends and fellow jumpers, how can anyone know what our wishes are? Personally, I would want people to get on the next load they could and then have a drink of somesort (even if it's soda, by the way) for me at the end of the day. Not that it wiould necessarily make any difference in what someone else would do, but it might make the choice to jump or not easier if the person's wishes were known.

  25. Way to go, LIsaH. I think this is the first flaming thread I've seen in the new sanitized Bonfire......Cheers.............I'll need that opener yet again.... "safety first... and What the hell..... safety second, Too!!! " ~~jmy POPS #10490
