freeflyimpaired 0 #7 June 6, 2005 I've been bored at times, just needed a little break, but more often I get frustrated with things or people. Usually with people. I don't like people. Joe.

Brains 2 #9 June 6, 2005 Yes, then i went on a cool freefly dive with these gravity rat people and everything just clicked. Awesome dive and everything worked. It got me excited to learn more freeflying and i was interested in skydiving again. Try something new. Never look down on someone, unless they are going down on you.
