exactly! apparently you've heard that my dad has roots in west virginia. :)
i actually saw a mullet in west palm yesterday. yikes!



Since I sold my El Camino last month, I no longer need to wear the mullet. ;)

You are going to have an awesome time doing 16-way with Boxman next week. We did a 12-pt 8-way Saturday. I don't understand the engineering of launching big stuff and the design of some of the sequentials so I am going to be absorbing all this stuff. Looking forward to an excellent learning weekend.

Larry the cable guy. I miss him he was funny as hell. I guess he got fired from the Rock Station he was on in orlando. where's he at now?



He does some local comedy appearances in Tampa at the Side Splitters club on occasion. I have seen him there twice. He also shows up on radio talk shows to promote his appearances. The show in St. Pete is almost sold out. That is ok though because Ruth Eckerd hall is accoustically designed and you can hear perfectly from anywhere.

Rednecking aside, the two plane big way last night was really impressive. It looked great. My heart is filled wth prideB|



Part of the 31-way was helping Drew understand the dynamics of formation planning. He was the trail plane captain (can we say beer) and floated for the first time on the trail. I think this is cool because it shares the knowledge. They are growing their pool of trained people.

I didn't do my usual diver slot and was lead plane front float. Just go where I'm told. ;) Anne Marie was front-front. A tough slot and she does it well.

Since this is the beginning of the season, there is a little experimentation and testing. People can test their limits and fail without it being a big deal. Also there is more time and patience when it comes to explaining some of the concepts that people usually don't get except through experience.

It only looks easy when it works. It only works when people understand. I learn more every year.

oh no, does this mean i'm jumping with you all weekend??? > :ph34r:



That depends. ;) You'll be jumping with me. I was hoping to see you during the skydive too. :ph34r: I usually change zipcodes when I track.

I have had Boxman coach me on a variety of stuff and am never disappointed about the great value of what he does/says.

I'll just get him to put me where I can touch you repeatedly. Ahhh...:)

Bill most definitely. With my level of experience I was just gaping up in the sky and going whooooooaaa! It looked great. But at least I was good enough not to try to destroy our bunker:( Sunset load my flight path could have led me there;)

orin looked at me after a jump 2 weeks ago or so and said "My GOD! you track like a BANSHEE!" perhaps if we track in opposite directions one of us could land in tallahassee and the other in Clewiston. ZHills would still send a pick up truck right?

touch me once in freefall and judo stacy will come out in the air. HA! just kidding. :D

From Tampa to Naples, everyone just flies on the proper side of I-75 to go down there. Funny as it seems, there is a lot of air traffic following it.




It works from Georgia too. Very easy to spot from 10,000 feet and has lots of easily identifiable landmarks so you can keep track of your progress. B|
