Snowwhite

QuoteFirst of all.. THANK YOU ALL!!!! THIS MEANS EVERYONE. I remember when we started SF six years ago thinking wouldn't a mini Quincy be cool. Hey Jay, thanks for the nice words about the WFFC! I have always enjoyed talking with and spending time with you. I was hoping that our date change would allow Streaker and me to enjoy more boogies, but alas, I'll be playing the part of the circus elephant putting up tents in Rantoul while you are enjoying the blues skies of Texas! But I swear, one of these days we're coming to visit you! In answer to the "what are the cool rides?" I would love to be able to say what we are working on, but again, after having been burned by confirmed aircraft not showing, we are being VERY careful with our plans. We will continue to pursue various aircraft up to the last FRIDAY of the event! Understand tho, that we have been know to be approached by a plane owner as late as the first day of our event, and managed to bring cool new jumpships at the last minute, many years running. Hence things like Fat Annie, The Sikorsky, the Family Channel Blimp, the C 130, the list goes on and on.. Well, numbers at the WFFC are not what they used to be. Numbers in Skydiving are not what they used to be. This was a subject just covered by the USPA in the last months Parachutist. But a word about the WFFC numbers in general. We have had a shift in the way we must tally our "skydiver" numbers. Used to be, if you walked thru the door, and were going to jump, you were tallied as a "skydiver". Since moving to Rantoul, we pay a tax on PAID skydivers. So those of you who pay your 49 bucks to come, are paying the first TEN to Rantoul for use of the property. However, the 100 Load Organizers who come thru the door do not pay to come to the WFFC. We invite them to come and provide a free service to our skydivers, so we do not have to pay the tax on them, or others who are on our staff. The published number that you see is the number that we pay the tax on. The actual number of skydivers is higher, by the number of staff, vendors and Load Organizers. I hesitate to mention this, because I sure as heck don't want the citizens of Rantoul to think we are trying to rook them out of anything, when in reality, it's very costly to provide the sheer number of staff members you see. All in all, I would say that there are some really cool new Boogies out there, and one heck of a lot of great old boogies, too! I loved the Mardi Gras boogie! Met some great new/old friends at Richmond, had a terrific time at Pumpking Chunking. Streaker and I are considering early retirement, to just be able to spend a year following the boogie scene, all over the country. If I could, I would attend them all, and yes, I'd help at any dz if an extra hand was needed. No one knows how to unplug a toilet like me!! No need to fight, just come to them all! See you there! skydiveTaylorville.org freefallbeth@yahoo.com

Well, of course we will be at WFFC, but since we rescheduled, I will have caught up on my sleep by Couch Freaks, so we get to go there TOO!! I can hardly wait! Usually, I sleep for most of September, since I haven't slept at all in August. This year, I'll sleep most of August, since I won't sleep at all in July... skydiveTaylorville.org freefallbeth@yahoo.com

I watched it, but don't know the players names. I'm not gonna be much help. The black guy who was in trouble for molesting a girl told his mom that his brother was the one who told him it was ok to do it. So his mother talked the brother into helping clean out the dungeon room in the basement that used to hold the guy who did the molesting. Only thing is she locked him in there. The couple who is trying to have a baby had a virgin immigrant in their house, and they tried to talk her into accomodating them by being inseminated. Maybe she understood, maybe she didn't, anyway, she got naked for the husband. The mother with the sex addict boyfriend and the gay son invited the boyfriend to dinner, but the little sister came downstairs in a negligee, and kept running her hand up and down the boyfriends leg under the table. The boyfriend jumped up and left. Then the gay son confronted the boyfriend, and asked him what he meant about "having sex with people". In the next scene you see the mom driving home frantically. When she arrives her boyfriend is coming out of her bathroom with just a towel on, and the son is in her bed. When she walked into the room, he said "gotcha!" Next morning she took him for a ride in the car to presumably check out the college of his choice, only she drove him out to a gas station in the desert, handed him a bag and said "bye"! Hope it helps Can you tell I don't regularly watch it? Normally, I'm HERE, just too lazy to watch the boards last night! skydiveTaylorville.org freefallbeth@yahoo.com

Newfoundland, Black But it wasn't on the list so I voted Cocker, cuz I love the big ears. My dog is half cocker, half Beagle. He looks just like Lady from Lady and the Tramp. His name is Freefall, cuz when he jumps off the furniture, his ears look just like a skydivers arms in Freefall. skydiveTaylorville.org freefallbeth@yahoo.com

I'm not there anymore, but there are some GREAT people there, and I miss em all! You will just have to be one of them that I miss... skydiveTaylorville.org freefallbeth@yahoo.com

Well, if there IS, I haven't seen it in YEARS! The best thing about sex is that it is something that I LOVE to do, and it doesn't cost a cent skydiveTaylorville.org freefallbeth@yahoo.com

I can't even SEE second place from here, can you? skydiveTaylorville.org freefallbeth@yahoo.com

Just kidding dude, but hey there should be some guidelines here, for instance, my husband will ask, naked? or clothed? If clothed, what clothes? skydiveTaylorville.org freefallbeth@yahoo.com

That would SUCK! But don't you think that your decision altitude should be higher? Now there's something unusual, changing a SEX thread to a SKYDIVING thread! Hmm, taking us OUT of the gutter! skydiveTaylorville.org freefallbeth@yahoo.com

And they are still putting them back together again from the hurricanes. Can't believe how many blue tarp roofs we saw when we were down there in Feb. Our area of the country was built on the farming/ag industry, and manufacturing. Dave lost his job in 92, and he was one of the last in our area of his age to go that route. The decline started here really big in 82 with the closure of International Harvester, The Rock Island Railroad, Case and Deere downsized. So we were lucky he held on as long as he did. When Montgomery Elevator downsized, Dave's job was gone, and there really haven't been any jobs in manufacturing for guys his age since then. For 12 years he has lived/worked somewhere else, and I have been here. My business is strong, but not strong enough to pay for his wages, insurance and the pension contributions that we need to be making. Our plan is for me to continue here, him there, and in 5.5 years he takes an early retirment and comes home to help me in my business. Oct 1,2011 can't come soon enough! skydiveTaylorville.org freefallbeth@yahoo.com

Cool! Add some Stevie Ray, and a little Christopher Parkening Plays Bach. Don't forget some Russian Composers for those manic days! Rimsky-Korsikov, Tschaikovsky skydiveTaylorville.org freefallbeth@yahoo.com

I have been too, but thank god Streaker will be home next weekend, and he can do it for me! skydiveTaylorville.org freefallbeth@yahoo.com

Oh Vallerina, I gotta tell you, there will be Lots!! and LOTS of happy skydivers if you are contributing yourself to the tents! skydiveTaylorville.org freefallbeth@yahoo.com

Breyers Butter Pecan, and invite Snowwhite! If you are in the Quad Cities, get Whiteys chocolate cookie dough malts. If I don't get them, I get the SHAKES! skydiveTaylorville.org freefallbeth@yahoo.com

Hey Lisa! this last margarita tonight is being drunk in your honor! Or am I just being drunk in your honor? Or am I just drunk. Heck! Have a good one! skydiveTaylorville.org freefallbeth@yahoo.com

hey wingy, so what shall we call it? PMSlovers jump? I hear some of you guys look really SEXY in pink! skydiveTaylorville.org freefallbeth@yahoo.com

I really enjoyed Scotty Carbones take on the "bears in the air" jump that we had one year. It was billed as all law enforcement types. We announced it for several days from manifest, and then Scotty walked up to the mic and announced that we would have all ex convicts on the next jump. That way the cons would be chasing the cops for a change! skydiveTaylorville.org freefallbeth@yahoo.com

Ok, so if we were to host a PMS dive, and then were to make a special WFFC Pink Mafia T-shirt or hat to commemorate the event, which do you think you would prefer? i think it is something that we need to mention in our event fliers locally, so that the kids who come to the convention could meet all of the cool ladies who join in on the jump and could get their autographs! Any thoughts? skydiveTaylorville.org freefallbeth@yahoo.com

Only if you make your beer skydive (even tandem is acceptable) this year. Yea right! So who will make sure that everything on the ground keeps rolling on! Hey, if you show up, I'll see you for that beer jump! But heck let's make it a margarita instead, I hear the Hellfish are buying! TOGA! TOGA! Did you hear I got nearly naked last year? Did you care? Ok, so there was no video, so it may have been just a rumor, but there will be better flesh than mine to be had! skydiveTaylorville.org freefallbeth@yahoo.com

On your way out of the hospital, be sure to stop in the ER and show your mom off to the doc and nurse who were so doubtful. Tell them that they can't give a date of death to a patient, only the guy up above can, and they shouldn't be too quick to force his hand. skydiveTaylorville.org freefallbeth@yahoo.com
