They never put enough sugar in the kool-aid.

Sweet, I'm coming to Ottawa this weekend and bringin 5 tandems with. Hope the weather is good on Sat.

Jump #31 Broken ankle after a hard landing. The result of a canopy collision/wrap. The other jumpers cutaway main entalgeled in my reserve, spinning me into the ground. 3 operations and 8 months off. Over 200 jumps since then, no incidents.

Huh, I had my eyes done today too. The doc said he'd never seen pupils get that big before. So big that he could see the flap from the lasik a year ago. Luckilly it was overcast today, still wore the shades anyway. I've never gotten a headache from it. That would suck.

Just saw this ad on MSN. Pretty popular picture

Well that was a great waste a time, Thanx! I better shut my computer down, my lights are starting to flicker, lots of lightning outside. Scarry!!

Got it thanx!!

Got em all but the guy next to candyman with a basket on his head

Happy 22nd Birthday Kim!!!!

I had the pleasure of being a passenger when Dave was getting his tandem rating. One of the most fun jumps I ever had. He was a great person with a true passion for the sport. I will cherish the memories I have of big Dave! Prayers to his family.

My heart goes out to the entire Quantum Leap family. This is truely a great loss. I will cherish the memories I have with those that we lost today. Prayers to all of their families.

My thoughts and prayers go out to all those involved. You will be sorely missed! Blue skies forever...

Yeah! The guy right after me flinched while they were cutting the flap!! They had to put it back and tell him to come back when it's healed. Glad it happened AFTER me. I think being a contact lens wearer prior to surgery helps. You're already used to sticking things in your eye, so it's no big deal when they do it.

I had custom LASIK done for $1350 per eye. That was the discounted price through my insurance. Otherwise it was $1900 per eye. Worth every penny. I had 20/10 vision at my exam last week.

I've lost one contact a number of times in freefall. Only once have I lost both!! I'm -4.00 in both eyes. Needless to say that was an interesting landing, but I stood it up! I have been using Flex-Z's and they seemed to minimize the amount of wind. My problem was my eyes would dry out, I would blink, and out they came. Just had LASIK done 2 weeks ago. Looking forward to getting back up in the air. If I didn't get LASIK, I would have gone for the Rx goggles.

I'm getting LASIK done on Thurs. Can't wait!!! Won't have to worry about losing a contact ot two in freefall anymore! Woohooo!! They said to stay on the ground for a couple weeks.

Yup, no depth perception sucks! Happened to me at couchfreaks, the grass was alot taller than it looked with one good eye. hehe Thanks for all the suggestions. I think I'll be tryin the overall favorite Flex Z's. Lasik would be the best bet for sure, but I'll have to wait till next semester to use my fiancial aid for that.

I need some suggestions on a new pair of goggles. I wear soft contacts and have had them sucked right out of my eye in freefall with the goggles I have now.
Looking to spend no more than $30.

Not too sure how common that last name is. I went to highschool in Killeen, TX for my freshman year, could I be that same guy you're talkin about?? Just might be a freaky coincidense. I'm guessing you're from TX being an Aggie.

Sup Tayte-dogg! We did it!! Got our A's before Couchfreaks. Now we just need to get our rigs before Friday and we'll be in for a hell of a time. Can't wait to jump from 14K.

Blue skies and no canned beer!

What's up everyone! My name is Patrick Ditto(everyone just calls me Ditto, but that name was already taken!) I made my first jump this March, and I just got my A license last weekend. I'm looking forward to Couchfreaks this coming weekend. Hope to see some of you there!
