skymut 0 #27 August 7, 2002 No slam from me, actually I think it is a good idea. Although being burnt out on anything isn't too cool, I wish I was jumping enough to risk getting burn out.

airann 1 #28 August 7, 2002 *** I am not looking foward to going back to the DZ this weekend. I have to go and load organize, coach etc....*** This is not exactly what a local jumper wants to hear about a new coach at a new Freefly school that just opened some 4 weeks ago. I sure hope Levin can hold up. He has been helping jumpers his whole skydiving life. I am glad his efforts started a nice school. Any FOL's Friends of Levins who can give Ramon a break and help Levin coach - Send a note on any available weekend days so he wont have to do it all by himself. I will call in some favors from some hot shots I know. I'd do anything to help Levin - but I cant coach, I dont think. ~AirAnn~ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ramon 0 #39 August 8, 2002 Just because I am exahausted I don't bitch and go home I stay at the DZ and jump with people.. even after I busted my ass on my VX 97 in between some power lines and a triailer park...I still strap on my vengeance and do a jump with Levin and some others and then participate in the hit and chug (I wanted to go home, but I stayed, I had funn too, but I'm still tired.). ramon"Revolution is an abrupt change in the form of misgovernment.", Ambrose Bierce.

airann 1 #41 August 8, 2002 Well, I dont think you look like an ass. Ok, ....maybe that one on Winnie the Pooh. That blue donkey. Now, I assume you might look like him. He looks very tired all the time. Everyone will look forward to your return to coaching. And I am real sorry for everything. I guess I am just tired as well. I still think you are a great guy. But I say what I think. I didnt say what I think is perfect. I am certainly not perfect. I saw footage of your landing and thank god I didnt see it in person. I would have had a heartattack. As far as crash landing footage goes, -and I know a lot about this-, the grass flying around in focus is a very nice touch. Much better than my tree or shrubbery landing the other day. I missed getting the leaves on the tree in focus. Darn it. Well, there are not many do overs in skydiving. You get what you get. Have a good day. And look on the bright side. It might rain this weekend... ? Love and kisses- Your Mom. BTW- I love you, if you are tired or not. Even when you are fed up with me. Even if you look like a little blue donkey. And even when you gripe me out. I still love you, you are part of my family. Like it or not. Lozer. ! ~AirAnn~ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Slappie 9 #43 August 8, 2002 Tell ya the truth Zennie.. I think I burnt ramon out the last time I was at the DZ.. I asked him to jump with me.. he told me "sure I'll jump with ya" "unitl my friends get here and I can jump with them" I haven't been back to a DZ since "Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them."

ramon 0 #45 August 8, 2002 Thanks very much. Made me feel better.

Deuce 1 #47 August 8, 2002 Amen. If you can stay stable head down with a spaceball, you are way the hell better than me at freeflying. If I could get a jump with somebody at your skill level without paying you to coach me, I'd be very, very grateful. Then, when your posse of freaks showed up, I would graciously and gratefully back out. When my skills were up to it, maybe your group would invite me on a big FF way. Enjoy your break. The sport appreciates your giving back, even if there's some individuals who don't express it enough. You'll be needing your air bath soon enough.
