Thats awsome! I have next to no jumps and I am very new,but I feel like that all the time. When I was in high school,I was a cadet in an Air Force ROTC unit. My Aerospace Science Instructor had that same poem up on his wall. I dont know how many times I sat in his office and read it,but I've always liked it. A few years later, after graduating and starting college, I was introduced to this sport. I went back to my old high school and showed my ASI my video. He was a B52 pilot and ofcourse didn't understand why anyone would want to be on the outside of a plane in mid flight. But he enjoyed the visit and my adventure. Before I left, I looked back up on his wall and read that poem again.Then I walked out smiling. God I love this sport! "...just an earthbound misfit, I."

Yeah, I know what you mean.Sometimes you never realize how special someone is until it just slaps you in the face one day.There they were,right under your nose the whole time;just an arms length away.Things like that are a great feeling and you should hold onto them. I'm very happy for you and your fiance and I wish you both the best.

I hear ya! I'm so tired of being screwed over and hurt. I think I should just give up one the whole "love scene" all together. "...just an earthbound misfit, I."

Yes, and it really sucks! Especially when you cant tell them how you feel.I guess you just gotta give up and be realistic and honest with yourself. "...just an earthbound misfit, I."

Yep! I got him while I was still with my ex and he had a Sabre 135...and I thought it kinda fit him,so thats what we called him.Its pretty interesting trying to sleep on a twin size waterbed when a 120lb Alaskan Malamute decides you arent safe until hes layin across your feet on the bed with you. Thank god we moved to the country! He loves being outside now..so I have my bed back! (heh..got a new bed too) "...just an earthbound misfit, I."

yep..post whoring is definitely in their future. "...just an earthbound misfit, I."

Nope,I wouldnt let you near my boobies either. "...just an earthbound misfit, I."

I've thought about that.But things are difficult.I'm working on my parents ranch b/c they badly need the help.I cant just leave. Besides, I agreed to help them out here as long as I stayed in college and they would pay for my skydiving in return. I'm just trying to keep a low profile. "...just an earthbound misfit, I."

yeah but I'm a very broke college student. Not to mention AFP student. All my $$ is either in tuition,books,or jumps. But I have been considering something like that.I really dont wanna lose my puppy.Hes soo sweet and cute! Hes just too adventurous right now. Heres my puppy! "...just an earthbound misfit, I."

There is no way in hell anyone is gettin a needle near my boobies!! I dont mind needles,but OUCH!!!! No thanks! "...just an earthbound misfit, I."

Jee Clay! That was a real motivating speech. Arent you the optimistic one! "...just an earthbound misfit, I."

Yeah,AOT was great,but now I have no pics!Some of em woulda been good had the nitwit at the photoshop not had his head up his a$$!(this is one more excuse to get a digital camera and do it on my comp!) I really have no where to go other than the dz.All my friends moved off to college,got married or joined the militry and I'm stuck here.I cant afford to just up and take a road trip or mini vacation b/c I have school and all my $$$ is going for my AFF jumps. Thanks for trying to help gemini... it was great meeting you at AOT! "...just an earthbound misfit, I."

topless? BWAAHAHAHAH!!!!!! in your dreams! nice try though. "...just an earthbound misfit, I."

nope... just seem a bit aggressive at times. "...just an earthbound misfit, I."

Thanks,that was really cool.

nah! use one of those metal coated ones like on most payphones...it might do more damage. "...just an earthbound misfit, I."

(((((((good vibes comin' from TX)))))))) Good luck!

6 months...very long story.But not jumping really sucked!! I was not fit to live with for awhile. "...just an earthbound misfit, I."

Ok, sorry people,but I need to rant for a sec.If you dont want to hear it..leave now. This week has totally sucked!! MONDAY: I had a "run-in" with someone creepy that I cant stand,yet he wont leave me alone.Either he is too dumb to realize I hate him,or he knows and is just a freak! Then I ran into my exfiance and his new girlfriend and had to sit and watch them cuddle and make out right in front of me.Not to mention get the "20 questions"routein from the ex.I barely made it back to my truck befor I lost it. Also,I think I might have slightly messed up my knee sometime this weekend during the boogie b/c its kinda stiff and really hurts when I bend it or move it much. TUESDAY: I was already in a bad mood,so I figured I'd buy a new CD to try to lift my spirits. As I was going into the store who do I run into? My exfiance's freakin' mom!!! (to say that we never cared for each other is a serious understatement...I hated that little woman!!!)So this just sucks! I go home to find that my dog has gotten out and is currently chasing the neighbor's cows and defeathered one of his chickens.I retrieve dog,but now my dad is strongly suggesting I get rid of my buddy b/c he keeps gettin out. TODAY: Wake up with a migraine,but get ready for class anyway. Walk outside..WTF?!! My truck has a flat.(4th one in 3 months!)So I wake up my dad(piss him off) he helps me fix the tire and I still end up late for class. After class I go to the photoshop to get my pics from the AOT boogie.Well guess what?There was a new guy in the lab and he overexposed ALL of my film.None of my pics could be saved.Dammit!! Someone please show me where the delete button is on my life!!!!! Ok,ranting over.Sorry "...just an earthbound misfit, I."

[sarcasm]jee! thanks! that makes me feel sooo much better![/sarcasm] "...just an earthbound misfit, I."

I thought this one was funny too!(since I'm female I can get away with postin it too) This is why math is taught in school. I was riding to work yesterday when I observed a female driver cut right in front of a pickup truck, causing him to have to drive on to the shoulder to avoid hitting her. This evidently angered the driver enough that he hung his arm out his window and "flipped" the woman off. "Man, that guy is stupid," I thought to myself. I ALWAYS smile nicely and wave in a sheepish manner whenever a female does anything to me in traffic, and here's why: I drive 48 miles each way every day to work. That's 96 miles each day. Of these, 16 miles each way is bumper-to-bumper. Most of the bumper-to-bumper is on an 8 lane highway. There are 7 cars every 40 feet for 32 miles. That works out to be 982 cars every mile, or 31,424 cars. Even though the rest of the 32 miles is not bumper-to-bumper, I figure I pass at least another 4000 cars. That brings the number to something like 36,000 cars that I pass every day. Statistically, females drive half of these. That's 18,000 women drivers! In any given group of females, 1 in 28 has PMS. That's 642. According to Cosmopolitan, 70% describe their love life as dissatisfying or unrewarding. That's 449. According to the National Institute of Health, 22% of all females have seriously considered suicide or homicide. That's 98. And 34% describe men as their biggest problem. That's 33. According to the National Rifle Association, 5% of all females carry weapons, and this number is increasing. That means that EVERY SINGLE DAY, I drive past at least one female that has a lousy love life, thinks men are her biggest problem, has seriously considered suicide or homicide, has PMS, and is armed. Flip one off? ....... I think not.. hehehe!!! "...just an earthbound misfit, I."

LOL! wanna come do my laundry for me then? "...just an earthbound misfit, I."

Good point. "...just an earthbound misfit, I."

Aww bite me!! (you suck!jk) "...just an earthbound misfit, I."

Heh! I thought this was pretty funny.(No offense guys) WHY YELLING AT A MAN DOESN'T WORK What a woman says: This place is a mess! C'mon! You and I need to clean up! Your stuff is lying on the floor and you'll have no clothes to wear if we don't do laundry right now! What a man hears: blah,blah,blah,blah, C'MON blah,blah,blah,blah, YOU AND I blah, blah,blah,blah, ON THE FLOOR blah,blah,blah,blah, NO CLOTHES blah,blah,blah,blah, RIGHT NOW "...just an earthbound misfit, I."
