Lost Prairie Video....a little glimpse of Heaven
JJohnson replied to JJohnson's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
Nice? Nice doesn't even beging to descibe it. I went once just on a whim. I've been back every year since and plan on going to this boogie for the rest of my life. My friends and family all know to not die or get married during this time period if they want me to attend. I'm there for the entire boogie, start to finish and my non-jumping wife loves it as well. It is simply a great time, no attitudes, laid back. Jump as much or little as you want. Go jump in mountain lake to cool off. Total decompression nestled in the heart of the Rockies. My heart sings the day I arrive and breaks when I leave. JJ "Call me Darth Balls" -

> It's rainy, cold, Lang Beer is no longer available at the bar, and there are too many Canadians. Do not listen to William, he bad raps his own neighborhood to keep people from going there. He is just plain anti-socia, ain't ya Bill? It's only cold from Sunset to Sunrise...any other time you'll bake. It only rains once a year up there. I don't pay attention to the beer, besides everybody brings their own anyway. And too many Canadians??? One is to too many, but what are you gonna do? We should have made Canada the 51st state years ago. What you should have said is that the dust is so thick they sell bottled air, the grasshoppers are at plague levels and there is never any hot water in the showers........and yet we all still keep coming back......go figure. What day are you planning on arriving this year Bill? How's Amy doing? Tell her Kathy and I say Hi. JJ "Call me Darth Balls" -

Well I just got my copy of the tape and after watching it I feel like a junkie in need of fix. Watching that tape was almost like being there and has me counting the days until this year. Mr. Bess did a great job on it. Congratulations Michael on an excellent production. I was laughing so hard I almost pissed my pants and it's amazing how much Johnny Longspot looks like Cornholio. Great skydives and the best people above Earth. Lost Prairie.....There's no place like home...there's no place like home.... If you havn't been there you have no clue what you are missing.

Dude, I quit about 9 months ago. I crave one from time to time but mostly not. I found the best way to fight an urge....espcially during the first few days is to run people off the road. Reach out and choke idiots at random. Just give in to the mean, nasty, burning feeling that is crawling up your spine. After you get donme kicking some numbnuts silly for paying with a credit card for a pack of gum...just look at them and say,"I just quit smoking. Sorry." They will understand.... Seriously, just gut it out. I tried patches and started worrying when my next patch was due to go on.....no crutches.... JJ "Call me Darth Balls"

I think he is smoking crack. The least profile to the wind, the less resistance. So if all other things are equal, HD is faster than belly. You could add weight and change the material of the jumpsuit to increase the fall rate of the belly flier. However if the same measures were taken by the HD person, he/she would still be faster. I'm sure Bill Von could explain it far better than I can and even use the correct terms. But I think I'm on the right vein here. JJ "Call me Darth Balls"

I like cats, please do not think I don't. My wife is allergic or I'd have one of them for my dog to play with. JJ "Call me Darth Balls"

My experience with Icarus was none better than yours...even worse. Icarus would have to have the greatest shit on the planet by a wide margin for me to consider going back to them. JJ "Call me Darth Balls"

Wife is 45 and her tubes are tied. So invitro is the only real option. JJ "Call me Darth Balls"

I finally got out to the DZ this weekend after about a month of life interference bullshit. Selling a house, new dickhead boss, wife and I trying invitro....you name it, everything seems to happen at once. It got so bad, my wife kicked me out of the house and told me not to come back until I had done at least three jumps and was in a better frame of mind. I get out to the DZ and our very own Wendy had placed a jump on my account. She did it for me quitting smoking. Thank you my dear. I enjoyed the jump very much. JJ "Call me Darth Balls"

My in shape American ass drives an economical Korean mileage monster about the size of a roller skate. If your country doesn't need the oil why did they back us? JJ "Call me Darth Balls"

No shit. Congratulations. That is pretty cool. Does this basically eliminate your electric bill? If so what was the cost to install the whole system? Do you got a complete list of materials and prints? Heck you got a complete package to sell? JJ "Call me Darth Balls"

I'll give you another reason not yet mentioned...the openings. A Samurai opens incredibly fast, yet butter soft. Most amazing openings I have ever felt. The first time I deployed I freaked. I deployed, instantly I heard and felt the canopy begin to open.....braced myself to have my neck broke.......opened my eyes, looked up at a fully inflated canopy and wondered why I didn't feel the opening. Got to the ground, looked at the designer of the canopy and asked him if it was supposed to open like that. Brian cracks a sly grin and says," Open like what???" Samurai is a great canopy.

I'm selling the house, so I'm trying to do all the little things to make it more appealing to a potential buyer. Once I get caught up, I'll relate some of the shit I've found wrong with this place.....I've been renting it out for the last two years and the renters were lazy lowlifes. JJ "Call me Darth Balls"

I used to live on nicotine and caffiene. I've noticed my desire for coffee has gone done the last few weeks once I quit smoking. Strange. I really like coffee and still enjoy it. But I don't have a cup with each smoke now. JJ "Call me Darth Balls"

That was good.....true, the zippo stays at home now...but I've been chewing toothpicks......I eat more lumber than a family of beavers. I went to the dentist the other day and he treated my for dutch elm disease and splinters in the gums. JJ "Call me Darth Balls"

Why is it if I spend the time, money, and effort to paint my garage floor with all the proper stuff, that it makes about as durable as coating as a layer of kleenex? I mean drop a quarter and it knocks ten dollars worth of paint off. Yet, spill some cheap ass latex, semi-gloss wall paint and I can't get that shit off the floor with a pound of C4, a bottle of acid and bulldozer?? WTF. JJ "Call me Darth Balls"
