  1. It is not my place to judge that which I cannot understand (mental illness or breakdown), but this is heartbreaking. I'm reposting my initial post when I first heard the news on Facebook: This is incredibly sad, tragic and horrific. I’m in total shock and so saddened. It’s tragic that Billy was unable to get help for himself and his family in time. Mental health needs to be a much bigger priority throughout the world, and we all need to keep our eye out on one another. Someone who has suddenly slipped into a mental delusion or psychosis is unable to help him or herself. We can only hope that with the right medications, support and therapy, tragedies like this can be avoided. May the family Rest In Peace.
  2. This photo goes way back to 2007/2008, but it's one of my favorite memories of Lisa H. We had such a fun night! Blue skies, dear Lisa! Love you.
  3. Hello everyone! ~ It's been ages. Looks like I picked a good time to check DZ.com, since I see so many familiar faces/names. I hope that everyone is doing incredibly well. Sending big hugs to all!
  4. I'll bet. I hope all went as well as possible, and that you are now recuperating with loved ones. Blue skies! :)
  5. Thanks for thinking of me! I'm doing great, and I hope that you (and everyone else) are also doing very well!

    Hi

    Yes. Hi Lisa! I freaking miss ya, Skybytch.
  9. They just tried the same with me and wrote a ridiculous email after I asked where she jumps/dropzone reference and for"her" full name, etc. Here is the response: "Thanks for your prompt response ,I was just about to book the pick up schedule with the pick up agent when i had a problem about their payment method. They are only accepting payment through Western union money transfer but i am currently on sea due to my status of work, so i want to add the pick up agent pick up fee to your item cost price credited to your Paypal account and the pick up fee is ($500.00) so i will be crediting the total amount of($1,900.00), the extra ($100.00) is for the Western union transfer fee for you to transfer the pick up agent fee through Money gram. Once i have these done and you have pick up agent fee sent to them, the pick up arrangement will be scheduled,just wanted to let you know before i proceed with the payment, please advice and i please advice and i will be looking forward to read from"
  10. I'm in 2nd place, again. I was in 1st by about 100 likes this morning, but the other person to beat has shared hers over 40 times and is tagging every person she knows to share and/or like her photo. My friends are mostly having an amazing Sunday skydiving, having fun outdoors or with friends. Thank you for being awesome and not sitting at home. *I'm going on a solo 10 mile hike in the 20 mph winds in a bit myself. Wish me luck! Please LIKE this photo when you are done jumping today. It's the final day, and I'm in 2nd place by quite a few. Thanks, everyone!
  11. Thank you, all! Today is the last day to vote for my photo in this "Halloween selfie" contest. One contender has shared her photo 34 times & is gaining! Please click on photo of me and "like" my photo on Dulcelina's contest page. The magazine actually asked me to enter, and this was just a photo I snapped for my BF as I threw together a costume for Skydive Taft's Halloween costume party, during their boogie weekend. I was to be the RW Load Organizer, before I became very sick. We had bad weather, too. The skydiving, dropzone, boogie backstory would be very interesting for the magazine IMO. Thanks so much for the awesome support, everyone, and please spread the love by sharing my photo and/or liking, if possible.
  12. Thank you! The contest ends today. I haven't been around much to ask for the help, but thanks to you and to all who have shown support. I really appreciate it!
  13. Thank you, John, and thanks to the other John (Catfishhunter), Lisa and Andrea, too!
  14. Thank you so much, Andrea! I also hope to win. Yeah, I noticed that many pics weren't selfies at all, and I thought that was pretty weak! Anyway, the magazine loved my photo which they saw on instagram, and they asked me if I would enter, so I hope this works out. It's crazy because when I took that selfie, I was super sick. I was supposed to be LOing for the Halloween boogie at Taft, but I ended up too sick to jump. (Had a friend fill-in for me as LO.) I almost didn't go to the boogie party. I got ready pretty fast and snapped a couple of selfies for my BF (who was DJing at a party in L.A.) before leaving my hotel room. I'm flattered that they deemed it contest worthy! I'm currently in 2nd place, but I'd appreciate it if I could get some more likes, so I have a chance to win. I'd love to let them know more about our skydiving community, if possible. It's an alternative magazine, so I'm sure they'd be interested. Blue skies, everyone, and thanks in advance!
