  1. Yep great news in fact He should be returning to Tallahassee today!. He will have to go to HealthSouth (a rehabilitation hospital) for a time but.... He is able to wheel himself about in the wheelchair and... can move the big toe on both feet..... Seems to me there is a significant note of progress and hope there! Its already been mentioned about him getyting a trike to cruise to bike week next year... Oh as a side note the phone number to Health south is (850)656-4800 and 656-4880 im not sure at this moment which one will get you transferred to his room ... Keep him in your prayers Will
  2. UPDATE FROM 11-25-03 The latest update is The surgery took 10 hours instead of the 8 origionally planned but he is alert and concious and in relatively good spirits considering.

    Dreams(?)

    could your dreams be trying to tell you to trust yourself? You may be concerned that you'll mess up or mess someone else up... Just a thought... PS im new to the sport and thats one of my concerns too
  5. Funny, I was a bit of a chicken growing up.. joined the army no interest in airborne school... many years later made friends with a longtime skydiver... Then last Christmas eve a close friend who was 10 yrs older than me decided to kill himself by gunshot down the throat. His wife went over the edge and I decided that life was just too damn short not to live. So my 34th b-day came around and I told my skydiving friend that I was jumping for my b-day.. I did (that was late April) and now I start groundschool and all the following jumps mid september AND my mother who will be 60 will be doing her #1 tandem about the same time I do my solo jump! Blue skies
  6. Depends on where you are at and the weather... In Fla Ive jumped in shorts and a tshirt because I where a jumpsuit over it.. Fly free bro Godspeed and blue skies Will

  12. Evening all, As im still very new i've seen a reoccuring "rule" about Firs... (nope not gonna finish saying or typing it) and beer.... The dumb question is... so if you say it... what is the proper quantity of beer to bring....? Silly question I know but I like to keep within the "official" regs Blue skies Will
  13. As a newby myself I can whole heartedly agree that it is addicting but well worth it. Though expect a lot of "Whuffo's" Blue Skies Will
  14. Hello all, just dropping a line to say wow jumping is addictive!! Had my first tandem the last weekend in April to celebrate my 34th B-day.. Thought it would be a 1 time thing but oh no it wasn't to be... I've set up a "Jump Party" (no not a boogie) for June 14th in Quincy, Fla which I'm proud to say is my Home DZ. I've got about 10 people that are going to jump their "# 1" no I didnt say the "F" word... while I get in tandems 2 and 3 ... Then off to IAF training...
