338 members of the facebook page saying they are going, and thats not counting all those jumpers in the midwest yet to still discover facebook! Sounds like a party

Well, as soon as we midwesterners get 'lectricity and the interweb, we will be completely modern! Just think, lectric lights in the stable so we can see the horses when we saddle them up!
Fortunately, I'm adhering to a pretty strict, uh, drug, uh, regimen to keep my mind, you know, uh, limber.

I'm on it! This will be 15 years for me.

First year I attended, I had less than 100 jumps. Got on a naked load (sausage fest, organized by two girls, but they backed out). Some of the boys landed near the bleachers. When I got home, people were telling me that they'd heard about a bunch of naked skydivers on Paul Harvey. What do you say Jenny? Let's do it again, but add a bunch of girls to the mix!

Folks,

We've been giving our website a new look these past couple weeks! Sorry it had to be right before boogie time when the old one went kaput. Anyhow, go to www.couchfreaks.com and check out all the new menu items under "Dollar Daze". Advanced apologies if it is a big sluggish, we're getting on a faster server very soon.

If there is any other info you would like me to put up there, please ask me! We've been bustin butt boogie planning, so haven't been on Facebook or dz.com lately B| I will put up a link to the facebook page "i'm going to couch freaks 2009"!

cheers,
bill o

That's a reaaalll nice interweb page-a-mathingy ya got there Bill! I see that the Chris Lager band is coming back so that's an extra bonus.

But really, as long as there is beer and airplanes and I get to see all my old friends, the rest is really just details, details...;) I booked my flight a long time ago so I'll see you at the beer truck Wednesday night!



"Ignorance is bliss" and "Patience is a virtue"... So if you're stupid and don't mind waiting around for a while, I guess you can have a pretty good life!

We're excited to get KLB back too! They're getting pretty popular so it was a happy day when I heard that we were able to get them booked this year. Be sure to thank Hobbs for staying in touch with them and pleading for them to come back.

See you there. I am jealous you get to nap till landing on the ramp at FOD, i get to do that loooong drive from KC up there that you know all too well.B|

4th year for me!

Year one was my first Otter and first Skyvan jump, not to mention when the first time Todd hit on me. Todd laughed at me when, after my first skyvan jump and had a perma-grin, I told him I was going to make t-shirts that said "I Jumped The Skyvan!".

Year two was my first NPSL meet at Couch (including my 300th on round 5) and was on and celebrated Todd's 5000th. I remember his amazing smile that whole night long. Good times.

Year three I was still in my haze, less than one month after Todd died. Did my 500th and had the honor of Todd's AFFI-E from a month prior sign off my D-license (Thanks Mike!)

Year four...TBT...but I know it will be memorable!

But nothing like a good sausage fest, which I have not claim too.

See all you Freaks at Couch!!!
