BigWaveDave 0 #1 January 9, 2004 I'm fairly new in the sport, but I've learned a few things about the skydiving community. 1) Its fairly tightnit (sp?) 2) Its like a big family, we all take care of eachother 3) and lastly, we all love to rip on eachother... So in honor of the Friar Club's Roasts, you now have the chance to make fun of our fellow DZ.commers. You can be brutal, you can be funny, you can be novel, anything. For the most part, what happens on this thread stays on this thread. Now---remember this: A roast is supposed to be funny. If you make stupid jokes, you are the one who is going to look stupid, not me. And lastly, don't be malicious. Let's keep this all in good fun.“If you hear a voice within you saying, ''You are not a painter,'' then by all means paint… and that voice will be silenced.” - Vincent van Gogh Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't want to give anyone the chance to say something really mean about someone and then say, "but, I kid, I kiiiiddddd."She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jsaxton 0 #4 January 9, 2004 I'll give it a try: ChopChop, ya gotta love him. When he was starting out he thought everything was a malfunction. He'd cut away from line twists, slider up, closed end cells, everything! How do you think he got his name? From slicing Sushi? He was so cutaway happy we thought he was cutting away because he liked the way his reserve flew better than his main. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But if it comes from a girl from the south and we end it with bless their heart - does that count as a personal attack. judyBe kinder than necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.

That made me think of my favorite line from Steel Magnolias: "if you don't have anything good to say, come over here and sit by me." Love those southern gals.
