  1. All I can say is Wow! I'm looking at Walken in a whole new light! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iZLidy7pIQ8 I wonder though how long it took the dance instructors and choreographers to get it to look that good. How many of you guys can actually dance like that? I'm thinking...If I could just figure out how to get the YouTube video on my ipod, I could take it to the Mall and watch it while I instruct my better half on how to do that on the elevators and escalators like Christopher Walken. This could be very good! Oh baby!
  2. I had a premature reserve deployment doing a poised exit from a 182. They are now banned from our DZ on C-182 jumps. From the Otter I do a poised, into the Relative Wind exit, unless the passenger specifically wants a flip or two. A good camera man gets face, not ass, on any exit. On the otter poised exits, the cameraman leaves from the front of the door. Fantastic shots!
  3. We used to call my oldest daughter Ryan "Rye Rye" but we don't do that much anymore now that she is 18 and going off to college. My second daughter Amelia (16) goes by "Mia" however I still call her Amelia. My son Brett (15) has always been "Buddy" to me even when he was first born. I have no idea why. I'm the only one that calls him that. Weird now that I think about it. My youngest daughter Melissa (13) was called "Sissa" for a while but not so much anymore.
  4. Actually the duck farts can be made better by substituting the last layer (crown royal) for whipped cream and you have to drink them without picking them up with your hands. They are called "blow jobs". Very yummy equally evil. Suitable for the girl. Or those guys that like that sort of thing.
  5. Amazon: Look for me at the boogie! That sounds fun! I'll be there! Sunshine: Why the heck to do think I got married? It's legal, they are in your bed, they can't get away! No help needed! A better question would be: Why does my poor tired husband stay with me?
  6. OK, I emailed her! Hope she is having a good time. Probably spending most of it reading emails!
  7. why should I get a tan? You guys only go for the white parts anyway! With no tan you'll go for all of me! I've never had a tan that didn't come from a tube. 50 block is my friend.
  8. Bob was dumbfounded by the dumb! Poor Bob!
  9. I spent some time in China a couple months ago and not one fortune cookie did I find there! I think they are an American thing only.
  10. OOPS! Too late! I saw that! It aint gonna happen. I don't share very well.
  11. I starte back in 83 before tandems. I did a static line jump on a round parachute for the first 20 or 30+ jumps I made. HOWEVER I did help a lot of guys get their tandem ratings when they had to have an experienced skydiver go up with them before they were checked out. Several times I went up with them when I was pregnant! Is that a tandem-tandem? So, yes, I've done a tandem but that is not how I learned.
  12. Oh! Thanks for that picture! Now can you get it out of my head! Yuck!
  13. OMG! I'm on that list! OK, here I am! Boo! Did I scare you? Back to lurking again only to appear out of nowhere to scare you another day.
  14. Darling boys! I love how your older son's shirt is keeping a watch on the younger one.
  15. 4 kids.... apparently not always!!!! Lets hope that after all these years I got more than 4 times out of him! Oh! Wait, we were talking about beer weren’t we? I'm sticking with the swallow.
  16. My 17 year old daughter would give three times that much to see him! She LOVES Bob Dylan. She has his posters up in her room as if he were a teen idol. Has all his books and CD's etc. I don't get it but there ya go. Pay the money and go see him. Money is just money but you can never gain the experience again no matter what you pay.
  17. My daughter starts her first year of college in Boston on August 26th. I have three others, two in High School and one in Middle school this year. They all start on Sept. 5th. They don't get out until mid June for summer break though. I'm looking forward to them going back so I can get things done around the house. We've taken them all to two different countries this year on vacations. (China, Canada) I'm ready for school to start now. I'm tired!
  18. Yup! I spit out all 4 of those kids! Wasn't easy either. I have horror stories like you wouldn't believe! And I did get married very young but I embarrass John when I tell people how young I was so I'm not going to say. We've been married over 22 year blissful years now.
  19. Sounds like you were quite cowed by the incident.
  20. Actually JohnMitchell prefers the dark thick beer so that wouldn't be the gold. Give me the amber liquid! I'll take the gold. But I suppose the beer store would have both so... We're all happy.
  21. I'm posting this one for JohnMitchell since he didn't. This is us last month on the Great Wall of China. I know it's suposed to be only the kids but I don't have a recent one of just the kids. It's hard to get TEEN-AGERS to pose so you get what you get. Orange shirt is our daughter Ryan (18 next week), Then John and I, then Amelia (15), Melissa (12) and Brett wearing the green "Stop Looking at my Shirt" (14). It was a hot sweaty climb so you have to take that into consideration. They really are a lovely bunch!
  22. Yeah, between two teen age boys, three adults (one of them John) and a teen age girl there wasn't much left of dinner tonight. If you are in the neighborhood stop by tomorrow though. There is always something good on the table.
  23. Marinated chicken and steak cooked on the grill, fresh green beans, fresh green salad, potato salad, home made dinner rolls, with home made chocolate cream pie on chocolate crust for desert.
