TribalTalon 0 #5 November 7, 2003 HA!!! do i detect a tad of jealousness? and thats cool that kid has so many jumps. sheesh. i'm not really goin for a jump record, myself, but it would be cool to have 100 jumps by the time i'm 21. or maybe even 210, with that jump on my birthday. now that'd be the shiznit.

He'd come down after an 8 way, then play hide and seek with the other kids. I recall being jealous as he had something like 1100 jumps and wasn't yet 12 years old....

Also, i dont really care about jump numbers either. Its not the quantity but the quality that counts, in my opinion anyway.
