Peace be with you Gary. Raeford will miss you.

Tony & I sold SKY KAT Gear Shop in 2003. It was re-named to SkyCat Equipment. Just this month, we have purchased the store front back. We are now: YNot Today www.ynottoday.com 910-875-6777 Open Monday - Friday Hope we can help!

Our thoughts and prayers go out to Dori, Chris, Curt, and the ParaGear Family. We will miss you Lowell

I had Lasik completed 9 years ago. No eye make up for 2 - 4 weeks. No eye rubbing for life (as if you still have a contact in your eye). It is worth it! No touch ups needed here - I still have great vision. Enjoy the results.

Lots of folks here at Fort Bragg have had it done. Apparently Uncle Sam thinks RPK is better than Lasik. I have had Lasik (now 9 years ago). Very little discomfort. Great results to this day. I stayed away from jumping for 2 weeks. Post op RPK is a different story (so I am told by a few that have had it done). Much more pain after and longer recovery. Good luck!

Yep, the hummer commercial sucks, the little clidesdale was very cute, budweiser still rules the best commercials over all!

From one over 40 - it's a whole lot easier being over 40 than just over 21. Cheers

No way man! Thomas doesn't have a "no smoking" section this year. Hey TThac has an 8 person golf tournament goin on during the superbowl at Aviator's. I bet they miss your skills - with the game that is.

Good thing they had an entire choir as back up to give they vocal sound a little quality and filler for when Neville was singing.

I thought that commercial was sad at best, then when they got the chicks to pile up for a sandwich, it went to sick.

I wish these guys would stop talking and get on with the half time show! It's half time! Budweiser has the best commercials so far too. The rotating wall was my favorite!

NOOO! Oh my! You people have noooo idea how much you have stressed me! I am a first time cat owner. You know the old story - young cat wandered up and refused to leave (because it was feasting out of the dog bowl and local birds). So all this vomiting, hairball whatever stuff is what I have to look forward to?

We'll be happy to teach you at Raeford with parental consent. We have several 16 and 17 year olds learn and continue to skydive with us each year. Feel free to IM me for details. jumpraeford.com

You are absolutely right. Consider what you have accomplished in the sport. I have a number of jumps and a few skydiving credentials to go behind it. So if I were to add my skydiving experience, licensing and credentials - no matter how unrelated to the position I am seeking, it shows diversification, individualism, goal oriented, the list can go on. Positive attributes. However, if I just started jumping, limited experience, perhaps that stereo-typing of "immature, death-wish" thing you referred to may pop up. Or the employer may think I will be too preoccupied with my newly found skydiving hobby and simply be too distracting while at work to either myself or my work mates. Something to consider.

We'll all miss you each day Bill. With Christmas just around the corner, I will especially be missing the very special Christmas card Bill used to send each year. Kate

Thoughts and prayers to Don, his family, and his skydiving family. We will all miss you. Kate

What's the duck joke?

Come to Raeford. We have a complete selection of men around here. An easy 10:1 ratio of available Male:Female

Sounds like you have a good plan to re-enter the sport! Welcome back! Don't forget to add www.uspa.org to your list of good sources for safety tips and current education materials.

If you don't have a domain name, try going to networksolutions.com Secure your name there. Then you will need to transfer it to what ever server you decide to go with. You can still sell the address and contents of your website with your business if you sell it. Think of it just like a phone number. Not much difference. Good luck!

Happy Birthday Chuck! Celebrate indoors this year! Avoid that hurricane out there.

Cumberland County (Fayetteville, next to Fort Bragg) closed all the public schools tomorrow!

http://www.cybertec.net/ I have been with these folks for years now. Both for my present website www.jumpraeford.com and previous more complicated ones. Good service, rare to have down time.

You can bet your bottom dollar I plan to get in the tunnel during the Feb. USPA board of director's meetings! While the board is solving all of our troubles in Phoenix, I'll be flying at your place! Eloy must have perfect weather in Feb.
