Deuce

Some screen grabs.

Huh? My dude, there's nothing wrong with dancing with your sister. But trust me, dancing with her slutty friend is much more fun.

Wicked cool.

I wish I was home earlier, I support your decision. You are a great teacher with the great instinctive responses of a great parent, with girls of your own. Most of these kids don't know how to succeed, cause nobody has ever shown them the path to success. It is possible that by showing this girl the way to stay in school and succeed by clearly defining expectations, that she will succeed. That will be glorious, and it will happen once in a while. This may be one of those chances. I hope so. You are doing the ethical, compassionate thing, and I am proud of the work you do. Hugs and respect, JP

If you do your first on anybody but me I will cry like a schoolgirl. I have two schoolgirls, so I know what I'm talking about here, Lisa. You wait, missy.

How the hell did I miss that rig? I have owned three Wings Rigs. They are the very freaking best. I currently have two W-10's. Both have Spectre 150's and PDR 143's. One is tye-die and one isn't. Bomb -diggety, Mr. Campos. Bomb-fricking-diggity. I love the customer service and comfort of my Wings rigs. As Gareth says endlessly "the superior fit and comfort of the Wings harness and container system" makes me happy. So get me on that 140 way sequential record.....

Congratulations Andy! Marriage is the best of times, and the worst of times. But overall, it beats the hell out of being single, and it's definitely better for children. "Honey, does this make me look fat?" "Sweetie, do you know where my wallet is?"

I wanted to show y'all where we were at breakoff. At the highest possible point of breakoff. Like Moshe said, we had outs, but it was an invitational, and we all had more jumps than me at 650. Two other jumpers made that grape stake trail, one of them even made it not a downwind after watching the two of us rip into the dirt. Serious, experienced jumpers. A real pleasure to share the sky with. I had a near collision with Russ later, but both of us saw it coming and we both made a right turn to avoid. Nice. Experienced, serious jumpers. Can't wait for more. JP

Coolio. That makes me feel good. I jumped with some legends this weekend. My plane captain was Mad John, who I jump with almost weekly, and who loaned me my first birdsuit jump. Big Al, who's just as big a legend said to him on my last 60 way jump run: "Mad John? Have I told you how much I love this shit?! What would I do with my weekends if it wasn't for skydiving?" I was cracking up. I love these guys. They are the coolest men on the planet.

Come up with something. You are the freaking pusher, remember? Heck, I bet KatieBear and the Monkey will want to play, too. And then there's the hostess with the mostess, but we'll have to find a compact dude to ride on her, if she'll permit it .

Huh. How you gonna keep them lit? hmmm...i dunno. whatever...we'll win Please click the link below to see a great demonstration of the foresight and planning prowess of your hero. http://home.comcast.net/~kevintown/real_bad_idea.wmv Make sure you're one of the first women to climb him .

Huh. How you gonna keep them lit?

i'll get on tallguy...we'll hose you both No. I'll conspire with LouDiamond and we'll cheat. You are going to be voted off the Skyvan.

I'm on a PW tear. This is an amazing sunset picture from last year's DZ.Holiday Boogie.

Yes. You on LouDiamond and Mouth on me. I bet one pitcher of beer we wax you.

One of the most spectacular sunsets I've ever seen was last year at the Holiday Boogie. Just another reason to go.

No. You crack-pushing-rat-bastard! I decided I was gonna get this thing when even in my gigantic camera suit I plummeted away from you like a bowling ball when we were at Perris. I got invoiced on 9/11 (), half then, half on delivery. Haven't heard since. I'll definitely have it and a good bottle of tequila at Eloy. You gonna have digital stills by then?

I'm at six weeks on my suit order. BRING IT!

I don't know if everybody does it, but on jump run we usually do a little snappy handshake with everybody in reach. I was flying commercial into LA and I actually put my hand out to the person in the seat next to me when the flaps came down.

Good eye, V-man! That's Chris DeBar, and he signalled breakoff by pulling from the center. You can see his risers coming up before he gets stood up. And Kathy Daus made the announcement that it was a NorCal record, I just figured she knew. It's my personal best so far, and that's plenty for me

How would people feel if someone had discovered the box knives and committed a crime on a flight, I wonder? I predict this guy will make the rounds on the morning shows and will be treated as a well-meaning prankster, AOL is already asking if we owe him a debt of gratitude.

Done. And prayers to you and your family. JP

I didn't. I had to riser to get down into that cloverleaf. I let up when I had my target made and came straight in from there.

OK, I know we've got folks on here that don't see 60 way as big. But it's the biggest I've had a chance to do, and we completed a 2 point sequential on Sunday at Lodi, which is supposedly the NorCal sequential record. 3 Otters, I was a diver in the lead plane on the first ring of the 16 way base. Three amazingly bad spots out of 9 jumps, one north into an area of tract houses we all barely avoided and got into a field, and two southern bad spots, one of which put me into one of the hairiest landings I've ever made (onto a maintenance path between grapes staked on metal stakes supported by barbed wire!) and the other bad southern spot was a little further east, so I was able to land on the freeway cloverleaf (see pics, one at deployment, and one of where I landed). The points were completed on Big Tom's 1000th skydive, and that was fun, cause I jump RW with him quite a bit. Big thanks to the organizers, who were very positive and helped me learn a lot. Thanks to Bill Daus for buying that second Otter! Good stuff!

Good luck, Muenkey!
