FOR ALL 3 CATEGORIES!!!!!!!!!!!!! This weekend for skydiving sucked horribly. To many clouds and rain so the weekend was ruined. All I had was one RW jump left and I would have gotten my "A" license. Im really pissed because last weekend the winds were to high for students and I couldnt jump...I cant wait any longer. HOWEVER! This weekend rocked because my Florida Gators kicked ass and are likely going to the National Championship. Screw the Wolverines!2 BITS....4 BITS....6 BITS....A DOLLAR!....ALL FOR THE GATORS....STAND UP AND HOLLER!!!!

Even an incredibly cold but funny hybrid attempt that didn't go quite as planned. Ended the day playing with my canopy in the landing area after the last jump. It was 20mph winds with gusts well over, so I spent about 5 minutes in the landing area with a couple of other jumpers kiting my canopy in the landing area (after everyone had landed). Bumping end cells and goofing off. The gusts were making me quite light on my feet. After the last gust that took me off my feet (with a 2.3+ wingloading) I decided to stop and go drink a beer.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."
