  1. HI all, this Thursday, September 27th, is the birthday of JP's twin daughters, Camille and Yvette. To make sure the girls don't think we've forgetten them, Byron folk are sending them individual birthday cards. We invite all of JP's other friends and "family" to do the same: PLEASE PM FOR ADDRESS blue skies, madjohn
  2. Mamalena, Say it isn't so!!!!!!!! Don't you have some old Canadian $ lying around somewhere, they're worth a real buck now. will miss you and Mikey. madjohn Main goals in life: Be on the "Jumpers Over Eighty" (JOE) World Record and attend the Lost Prairie Boogie once after I'm gone.
  3. NIck, Great story. Glad to read that Metz remembered to put the gear down, which is more than he did when he bellied his Beech in at Antioch in the early 80's. Truly a memorable sound, but the runway was closed for the rest of the day and we didn't get to jump. madjohn Main goals in life: Be on the "Jumpers Over Eighty" (JOE) World Record and attend the Lost Prairie Boogie once after I'm gone.
  4. MY first one too. Sugar Alpha blew the jug when it was flying the 2-ton 20way, all the BaseBoys were on that, minimum of 200 lbs each. The Cutaway wasn't intentional crew, the guy had lost his glasses and when he saw the other canopy hit his foot and partially wrap it, he chopped. Made me a believer in square reserves because it happened right over my head. We also had the Big Dick load, John Walrond became Big Dick #1, and the all-schoolteacher load "Class Act. One of the bounces hit her head on the DC-3 door on exit and the other was jumping a belly-band that two jumpmasters had checked before she got on the plane. Saw fireflies for the first time and the biggest lightning storm of my life while I tried to sleep in the car. Great time. madjohn Main goals in life: Be on the "Jumpers Over Eighty" (JOE) World Record and attend the Lost Prairie Boogie once after I'm gone.

  7. Thanks, Jeanie, Now I'm sure I'll never bring my bag of throwing Knives to a skydiver gathering. madjohn
  8. Nothing is "offensive" by Byron Standards, that's why we're Byron. Come to our Boogie. madjohn Main goals in life: Be on the "Jumpers Over Eighty" (JOE) World Record and attend the Lost Prairie Boogie once after I'm gone.
  9. I ordered mine, and I usually get a Free one, so get clickin' people. madjohn Main goals in life: Be on the "Jumpers Over Eighty" (JOE) World Record and attend the Lost Prairie Boogie once after I'm gone.
  10. Be afraid, be very afraid. Not for the faint of heart. This Saturday is the annual Byron Speedo Day. All participating men in Speedos, black socks, and Tevas (sandals). If you can't do a 14way Speedo Speed star, you're still not the skydiver you could be. Unfortunately, photos will probably be posted. Be afraid!!!! madjohn Main goals in life: Be on the "Jumpers Over Eighty" (JOE) World Record and attend the Lost Prairie Boogie once after I'm gone.
  11. Just got on a computer in NYC and saw this. Sorry Johnny. madjohn Main goals in life: Be on the "Jumpers Over Eighty" (JOE) World Record and attend the Lost Prairie Boogie once after I'm gone.
  12. Actually it was 473, Bryan Burke missed it by 2. If you count Tandems, it was over 500. Three loads on Monday. Tuesday had a beautiful Montana sky with lots of big puffy clouds. Sunset was enjoyed by me, Slammer, and MIchelle. Cyall next year, madjohn Main goals in life: Be on the "Jumpers Over Eighty" (JOE) World Record and attend the Lost Prairie Boogie once after I'm gone.

  15. Dominik, Don't know if you got to skydive while you were here. If there's a next time, give us some more notice. We've got lots of jumpers in SF who could give you a ride. madjohn Main goals in life: Be on the "Jumpers Over Eighty" (JOE) World Record and attend the Lost Prairie Boogie once after I'm gone.
  16. I think you and Todak should do a naked 2-way tube dive, with video. If that wouldn't shut down Youtube, nothing will. madjohn Main goals in life: Be on the "Jumpers Over Eighty" (JOE) World Record and attend the Lost Prairie Boogie once after I'm gone.
  17. I bet Jason would make a lovely pose trying to lick himself too. Not that I'd look. see all you latecomers there, I'll be drinking Lang on Wednesday. madjohn Main goals in life: Be on the "Jumpers Over Eighty" (JOE) World Record and attend the Lost Prairie Boogie once after I'm gone.
  18. I'm currently planning on trying to have a nightly flock at 7pm if there are enough wingsuiters interested. cya all there, madjohn Main goals in life: Be on the "Jumpers Over Eighty" (JOE) World Record and attend the Lost Prairie Boogie once after I'm gone.
  19. My favorite Moe story was the year Scotty Carbonne came to LP. Moe used to have 5-gal gas cans full of rutgut tequila he got in Mexico. Whale or Mahoney introduced them up on the hill, Moe offered Scotty a drink of his tequila, Scotty downed it and threw up in about a minute, then asked for another. madjohn
  20. Grimster, Ruckert came by the Prairie, what, 3 years ago. Still down under when he isn't traveling. Could surprise us. Death Grip was a norCal jumper that moved to AZ. I was best man at his wedding. Haven't seen him, I think Malcom saw him last. Dan/Don Carrol- have missed him the past few years. I also miss Sarge, and Air Trash. A lot of the old Beagle Boys haven't been by in a long time. And the Wash folk that used to bring Salmon. No one seems to know what happened to Gino Latino either. Did Dave the Duck ever become a real jumper? maybe they'll all surprise us. 12 days for me, madjohn Main goals in life: Be on the "Jumpers Over Eighty" (JOE) World Record and attend the Lost Prairie Boogie once after I'm gone.
  21. You could get on BART closeby and take it to Dublin and maybe someone coming by could pick you up, and drop you off later. You'll probably be hearing from some locals here soon. madjohn Main goals in life: Be on the "Jumpers Over Eighty" (JOE) World Record and attend the Lost Prairie Boogie once after I'm gone.
  22. So you don't care about seeing me, you just want to see my cock? Thanks madjohn...I feel so cheap. If I wanted to see your cock, I wouldn't have suggested the condom. Who else will be there next Wednesday? madjohn
  23. Todak, you could try a red condom, and of course a bag over the rest of you. madjohn
  24. QuoteA liver transplant at the Lounge by Pete Hill...now THAT would make for good boogie video!!!!! MadJohn-I hope you are practicing and bring $20! ------------ Grimster, I'm bring my $20 and expect to play the rest of the week on your $. madjohn Main goals in life: Be on the "Jumpers Over Eighty" (JOE) World Record and attend the Lost Prairie Boogie once after I'm gone.
  25. Of course you realize this makes you totally ineligible for "Almost Sober Loads"!!! madjohn
