"I'd go south in the winter
and jump and jump and jump."



John, you got the full version of that poem anywhere? Haven't read it for a while, and I really like it!



I was wondering if anyone was going to recognize that verse.

If I could retrieve
the fortune I have spent
Worrying where it came from
not caring where it went
I could live the heady lifestyle
of Playboy magazine
I would see the worldly sights,
that still remain unseen.

I must amount to thousands
I've squandered on the sport
The mark of any jumper
a balance close to nought
But if I had it back
in one financial lump
I'd go south in the winter
and jump and jump and jump.

Please define the "torture of southern friends"...
I'm thinking Skymama wins.
:P



With my HMB skydiving ways... :ph34r:

Too hot, too cool, too windy, not windy enough, too cloudy, I'm hungry, I'm thirsty, I broke a nail - gotta find a nail salon, I don't jump with this one, that one is a douche... blah, blah, blah. You get the idea...

Now if I had a paddle I could fit in my suitcase... ;)

Ah the Poconos . . learned to ski as a teen in the Poconos before I moved West for college and stayed. Where do you tend to go? Spent lots of time at Jack Frost and Elk Mtn growing up.



Nice! Jack Frost/Big Boulder or Camelback. I'll go anywhere up there.... just as long as they have high speed lifts.

Went to Blue Knob in Western PA where my exHusband used to ski before he moved to NJ. I would almost die of exposure the old lifts were sooooooo slow. Other than that complaint I loved that old place!! hardly anyone ever around!!

High speed quads make SO much diffference . . I remember by about 11am there'd be huge long lines at Jack Frost. My Mom and Dad and my brother and his family still ski there and say the lines are still long but the wait isn't so crazy.

Hope you guys see some snow soon. We just got pounded with a week long storm cycle here in Lake Tahoe. Its going to be a skiing Thanskgiviing for us!
