Alright. Party at my place THIS saturday night (Feb 2nd). Bring beer, snacks, or whatever. We'll prly order pizza, drink, play cards? I know Scott is in... and Amy Freed. Anyone else up for it? Lemme know. If you need directions call/PM me.

Being that I haven't seen many of you in a long time, and many of you haven't seen my new place, i'm gonna do a small get together at my place in Cary. Scott is comin up from Florida supposedly and I know Brandon wanted in and i'm gonna call Nadia cuz she's back in town. If you're in, just gimme a heads up. Maybe do pizza, cards, movie, beer, etc.

I'd be in for tramp night, but i don't think i can handle being dressed up :) We should have a "chicks go climbing" night. That being said, if there is anyone that would like to go out to Vertical Edge to climb, I think i'm gonna try to head out there this week. Send me an email or call. 2wk backtrack: Happy birthday to Eric, Matt, Darin and anyone else i missed. Harry: Congrats. Can't wait to see you guys bring out baby zach. I'm in for gettin him jazzed up in a freefly suit for baby pictures. Whit: I'm glad you got the boot off. i know we'll see ya in full force by t'giving. Bridge day was a blast. Thanks to everyone who hung out. I have pictures around too :) and... ummm... Illanawanna: No more shots.... That poor waitress at cracker barrel.

Update: I have 2 tickets to the chicago concert for rob. Thank you THANK YOU!!! to everyone who contributed to buying them. I'm still taking donations for the other portions of the evening. I got several recommendations to send him with an escort. If anyone would like to help me arrange that.... as you well know, i'm not real up on those kinda services ;) I think the overwhelming majority has said to send him with an escort in a limo to dinner and then the concert... Give me some feedback.

Update for Rob: I will be buying the tickets to the concert on Monday June 5th, so you have one more weekend to contribute. Tickets are $65 if you'd like to go, we're trying to get a group that wants to go. So far it's Shari and possibly Melissa going. Chicago and Hewey Lewis, July 15th, Altel/Walnut Creek, 7:30pm. Please plan to contribute to either Nick or I by next weekend, and let me know if you're planning on going to the concert. [email protected] I talked to Kim (kim and Sherry)and he's going to help us out with getting him a limo. Eric suggested last load of that day we all land off and kindnap him into the limo... i love it. Also planning on sending him to a nice dinner. Suggestions? Thanks for the support on this. Any other suggestions of what to do i'd love to hear them. And yes, most of you don't know but he clocks in at noon and clocks out at 8pm... so if you see him there other hours, it's on his own time. Remember to just give him a thank you every once in a while.

A couple remarks: HAPPY (Late)BIRTHDAY MARION! HAPPY (early) BIRTHDAY JON! Rob: Alright, you know you've landed off at some point. Rob climbed a tree for you. Helped you out in some way. Talked you down on radio as a student. Well... Now it's time to give him something. He is the hardest working and most underpaid person at the dropzone. I'm organizing for him to go to the Chicago concert For those of you that don't know last year he was supposed to go, but ended up working so much that by the time he got off to go, he fell asleep at home and missed the concert. Well.. I want to send him in style... so i need people to contribute money for his concert ticket... as well as we're looking at possibly sending him in a limo and sending him to dinner all expenses paid. Any suggestions, let me know. Please see me this weekend. ALSO!!! Anyone that wants to go... i'd rather we send him with friends... Let me know that too. Chicago and Hewey Lewis Sat. July 15th. THIS IS HUSH HUSH! I don't want him to find out... so keep it a SECRET! :) Thanks Emily Ps: LJ: We followed suit. Me, BJ and Shawn tried to launch a 3-way round so we could build a hybrid and funneled it in the Casa. Good fun.

Anyone plannin on jumping on friday? I gotta be back in CH that night... but i have to let my boss know tomorrow if i'm gonna work friday. Looks like it's gonna be 68 and sunny. Em

First and foremost: Good luck to all of you that are quitting smoking. I truly wish you the best. I've seen what it can do to people... plus think of all that extra cash you'll have! Jumping: I've heard there are some people coming down from chicago for the weekend and will be out there by tomorrow... I changed my work schedule and should be there by 1pm (friday). Anyone else heading that way? Stomp: I wanna go! If you guys end up deciding to go... and haven't bought tickets yet... lemme know. See you all this weekend.

I actually remember hearing a student tell one of our instructors that had a cutaway on his jump that it was awesome because he got "2 freefalls for the price of one"

That's awesome. Good student reactions. I'm kinda curious myself about having a tandem cutaway. I have to have a regular cutaway before i can get my rating this spring... i'm kinda curious actually how i'll react to both. Glad to hear that it was second nature to ya.

Yup. i remember takin dawn sitflyin... just me and her at zhills. It was kickass. Dawn... remember: "I can get outta your way... but i dunno if i can help" :) Good times. I'll be down at collegiates... so lets get a roll call for who else we can expect to see down there... Got Marion, Eric, Me, and Tony so far :) (i'm responding for him.. cuz he's already down there) Dawn: can't wait for you to come back and teach me how to freefly :)

For those that remember... we're definately gonna have to break out the glow sticks again this year. Good times partyin for new years, and i look to see all you crazy kids back there again this year after partyin it up at collegiates.

Hey dawn, Sounds like you had an awesome "special day" :) Wish i coulda been there... but i was on my way to PA by then. Have a great holiday and i'll see ya next year. You've got my number if you need anything! Seeeeeeya Em

Yay for pictures! :) I'll have to find a good site to post them all on. When i do.. .i'll let you know. Good times out there... and... way to go erasing the picture of your balls... that coulda gotten ALL outta control hehe. Nothin like a little pantsing from Dawn. Have fun at the black and gold this weekend. -Em I wont look back to regret yesterday Were not handed tomorrow so i'll live for today -Three Doors Down

No mezcal? Why not?!? we all had a blast with it last year :) I'm glad to hear you guys are comin up to represent. I think i'm gonna get a day off this year to actually jump!! Hope to seeya soon. Emily
