  1. Fly free Kurt!! My condolences to his family and friends, he will be sorely missed. In all the years I knew him I do not remember one time that he was ever in a bad mood... A real inspiration.
  2. My prayers are with the crash victims, hope they are all safe! Michael
  3. If I dont make it you can drive over but I have to warn you, the other side is much more fruitful!!
  4. How could I miss it.... Hmmmm....

  5. Just for you Michelle I will try as hard as I can, and you know how hard that may be As for the dress? I have NO IDEA what you are talking about. I can neither confirm or deny the existance of said dress! Hugs and kisses!!! Boy toy
  6. I can not believe that no-one submitted any footage from the Chorus. All I had was the girls (of course...) because I shot it. This year (if I am able to make it :) I will try and make sure someone gets it!
  7. Hi Kim, Hope you and Ron are doing great. You did get your tape in the mail yes? Yours was shipped on 3/19/05 and should have been there already... Michael
  8. It's... Lost in the mail? I ran out of tapes just before I copied yours? I lost your address? Your order form had water spilled on it?...
  9. I know you are just giving me a poking and prodding in a friendly way I do have good news, all ordered tapes were sent out yesterday and are on their way. Please give me some much needed feedback when you do get your tapes and let me know what you think of the completed project. And as for you Amazon... Since I had something to do with you earning that "BEER" I should get it on it when you deliver to Camp CANADA Michael
  10. I was thinking of Chris when I mentioned it. There was a guy in Florida (Wes I believe) that was doing all custom stuff. I am still doing a bit here and there but I'm still pretty slammed with current projects. Sounds like exactly what you need when you get into the small and below (Xs, XXS etc.). There are definite advantages both weight and size to being in the small head size category... just for grins send me an E-mail with what your needs are and I will give it some more serious thought. Michael
  11. Thanks Lori, David is a pleasure to work with (both times) and I am very happy to call him a friend and have him promoting my work. Excellent videographer as well but don't tell him I said that! I too have the same setup as David for my multiple camera setup, and a smaller custom built side mount for tandems without stills and fun jumps. Have you thought about having a custom built for you? I thought there was a guy doing some custom work in your neck of the woods? Michael
  12. You should check out Brent Finley's web site at: http://www.brentfinley.com/ and look at the bracket on the "Skydiving Aerial Cameraman Equipment Store" link. Then checkout his Newton ring sight. I use a custom setup on my big helmet but my Optic has this setup and I could not be happier with it. Michael
  13. Of course I will be there, this will be my 14th year in a row. Never miss the prairie.... Can I get an AMEN! Amazon Billvon Girlfalldown Karenmeal (with Jeff in tow) SeaKev Shell666 sunshine TallGuy vdschoor Wingnut BirdWoman (come join the flock!) Michael Bess
