littlestranger 0 #1 August 21, 2003 Hi you wonderful people at Dropzone.com! I am so excited to be here. I've responded to a couple of posts but have never made a point to introduce myself. I feel like I know so many of you already. I am a recent addict to jumping out of airplanes. With three tandems under my belt and AFF on the calender, I fantasize about my 1,000th jump, and a base jump into the Grand Canyon (can you do that?). I have so much to learn and I want to learn it now, if you can picture someone that could literally jump out of their skin, that's me now! I don't even have to be jumping, I think about jumping and I get that adrenaline rush. This is so hard to describe, but I'm not embarrassed to admit I am a walking, talking, spastic, enthusiastic, poster child for skydiving. Can you relate?

AggieDave 6 #12 August 23, 2003 Kick ass! Find me when you get to the DZ, if I'm lucky, I'll be running around dealing with tandems out of our 182 (since the CASA loads will be full and I can't do them on CASA loads). --"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."
