lisamariewillbe 1 #1 August 27, 2006 To many seem to think that skydiving is the end all be all... so when you no longer have the sky to relay on ... what is left? My list, and only a partial one at that, of things BETTER then skydiving... My kids 5 am, my porch, hot cup of coffee, complete silence, austin texas sky my friends, wuffos and skydivers alike Getting my eyebrows back Sudsy Fist: i don't think i'd ever say this Sudsy Fist: but you're looking damn sudsydoable in this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tmaricle55 0 #2 August 27, 2006 A very cold Winter day... a cup of hot tea... a good movie... snuggle up with not a care in the world... two puppies curled up beside you as if you are the world... Spring, Summer, Fall day... getting up to go to the drop zone... jumping with friends... even if you don't hanging out is just as fun... Muff Brother # 3883, SCR # 14796 ICD # 1 - Pres.

Calvin19 0 #3 August 27, 2006 BASE jumping. Paragliding, Rope jumping, Aerobatic flying, Exploring, Trans Ocean Sailing, Spelunking, I could go on. Dont get me wrong, skydiving is great, but there is a lot of things i would much rather spend a tuesday doing. Most skydivers that i dont like are the ones who think skydiving is the last final an great cats meow. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jimmytavino 16 #13 August 27, 2006 love marriage making love making love make lovely kids helping lovely kids grow. seeing them as happy adults. which makes Us happy oh yes more importantly.... warning kids to not make kids...until it's time. ( see above for correct sequence)( maybe not 'better than jumping" but perhaps more important the last few years considering the circumstances of the world. ....) Sometimes what's really better than going Skydiving,, is the anticipation of Going skydiving.. The time leading up to heading off to the DZ may be hectic, or even stressful as we take care of whatever obligations and responsibilities we may have, so that we can head off...but the excitement factor can't be denied...as we travel those familiar roads to our second home. other things..... the appreciation of a outdoor setting, wildlife observation, or other natural occurance. waking up and getting OUTside while the sun is just in the tops of the trees, but not yet above the eastern horizon...warm drink in hand... listening to Birds and listening FOR airplanes and once in a while creating that super good Excellent photograph of either a skydive or of some skydiving Friends,,,,, THAT to me, can often be 'better'................. jimmytavino Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The skydivers i dont like are the ones who think that being a skydiver makes them cooler and better than anybody else. from my experience, being a skydiver, makes one anything but 'cool'. most skydivers like this have nothing but skydiving. and i guess its better than coke, as long as these kids dont try to pick up girls just because they are jumpers. so, i didnt mean anything against you, or anybody like you, i just think its pretty sad when a jumper tries to pick up a girl by showing her his USPA A liscense card. savvy?
