  1. Right on! Great idea about the air horn thing... I didn't even consider the fact that they may be looking in a different direction I'll definitely get that set up. Thanks for the tip. "pull high! It's lower than you think..."
  2. Ah yes, should've specified. This will be my 2nd balloon jump. I asked for the ride to pay for the jump :) I guess I share the same sentiments as you all, but a few of my friends that won't be participating have expressed concerns that it is, in their words; "a sick and twisted joke"... They cited playing on someone's emotions like that with an item as serious as death is over the line... In any case, I guess we'll see... I'm going to have someone take video and pictures so I'll have some footage to share. "pull high! It's lower than you think..."
  3. I agree. However, since I purchased a cheap windbreaker from GoodWill and modified it with a small piece of velcrow in place of the front zipper, I think it will do a good enough job of hiding it that no one will get suspicious... Plus, I could put the leg straps under my pants right? "pull high! It's lower than you think..."
  4. Alright, so my birthday is this Saturday and I've asked for a hot air balloon ride as a gift... I found out the name of the company and called them up to request permission to make a jump while I'm up there... The company ok'd it and it will be so... My question is: Would it be a distasteful practical joke to not let anyone in the other basket (there will be two balloons and some of my party will be in the one that I'm not) know I'm jumping and scare the crap out of them??? I'm getting mixed reviews and don't want to permanently damage anyone's feelings. Thoughts? "pull high! It's lower than you think..."
  5. Please do, thanks! Dublin eh, as in Ireland? Take your time, I understand... A pass with me can be a bit unfair as it makes all others boring... "pull high! It's lower than you think..."
  6. I'm pretty sure that's her name??? Tell her Randy from Elsinore says hi if it is... :) Yup, it was my first! Totally innocent, but still fun! Maybe you can give me my next??? "pull high! It's lower than you think..."
  7. Hey, you jump at S.D. Atlanta? I met a group of your folks out at the last Chick's Rock Boogie... Good people. ??? Trying to remember names??? I think her name was Shannon McQuery or something like that... She was my first kiss pass... "pull high! It's lower than you think..."
  8. You absolutely "should"..., but probably don't... "pull high! It's lower than you think..."
  9. You haven't met me yet... :) "pull high! It's lower than you think..."
  10. Hey, nice clip. Who's the artist that performs the first song on the video? "pull high! It's lower than you think..."
  11. Faith Hill, hands down. "pull high! It's lower than you think..."
  12. Saw them both in the last week. Sean Penn has definitely embarked in a new direction in his career. Anyone have any thoughts on the storyline of each? "pull high! It's lower than you think..."
  13. the light bulb goes off...! Thanks guys... "pull high! It's lower than you think..."
  14. so quick to throw stones... I'd be curious as to what kinds of skeletons lie silently in your closet...? "pull high! It's lower than you think..."
  15. me too! "pull high! It's lower than you think..."
  16. are those yours? ... Both of them? Wow! "pull high! It's lower than you think..."
  17. not sure about that one... But, on the "me" scale I'm right up there with...well...me! Thanks for the compliment... Now if I could just get that reaction from a woman or two... "pull high! It's lower than you think..."
  18. 46% gay according to the test... I got scared to death when the initial needle went all the way to 100!!! So what the hell does that mean?! I guess if I had to chose, I'd only be gay when I was sleeping... That's about half the time... "pull high! It's lower than you think..."
  19. let's see if we can make this even more complicated... I'm watching CNN last night and there was a segment starting right as I sat down. Apparently there is a new term being coined in the english language. "Metrosexual" was defined as the -proverbial everything in between- in regard to male sexual orientation. Don't quote me exactly on this, but if you're; partially in tune with your feminine side (i.e. groom well, have some style, and care if your underwear is clean), exude a gentlemen's demeanor a majority of the time (open doors, don't curse, polite etc...), and a handful of other like qualities then you're now at liberty to be referred to as a "Metrosexual"... As if it wasn't bad enough with all the titles we had already... Now we have something for in between...!!! Who cares already!!! "pull high! It's lower than you think..."
  20. we have a winner!!!! "pull high! It's lower than you think..."

    hey michele!

    To the two's of ya: No worries... Just means we've got an excuse to meet up again sometime... Michelle- That better be a joke I wouldn't do anyone like that, especially not you... I'm going to try and get another balloon jump in the next week or two so I'd be up for stopping by Perris right after to take you up on your offer. JT- we'll meet again I'm sure... We can fly then... "pull high! It's lower than you think..."

    hey michele!

    Yeah, JT, I believe we still have a jump or ten to make! Michelle, same goes for you... This is the third time I've met you in person and we've still yet to fly together... What gives! :) "pull high! It's lower than you think..."
  23. Bump... I can't wait! Hypothetically speaking (of course), would it be unreasonable to think there will be a couple "single" skydiving women there? "pull high! It's lower than you think..."
  24. My apologies if what I wrote offended you. I was only poking fun. As a former Marine myself, I take medals and badges earned very seriously. In no way was I intending to take anything away from your Father's service and recognitions for such. However, there are a handful of awards that are all but given away and those were the ones being referred to. "pull high! It's lower than you think..."
  25. Or right next to the Burger King on base! We used to joke around when the Army cadets would come to El Toro for those few weeks every summer about how they were already racking up the ribbons! "pull high! It's lower than you think..."
