Thanks you guys! There's some funny stuff here. We're now trying to think of funny words that would make people laugh when they drive by. Like Hootenanny.

OMG, Travis posted the same thing in Club RSX. I'm officially not doing any more work today. Hershey High Way! http://forums.clubrsx.com/showthread.php?t=604784 Brie "Ive seen you hump air, hump the floor of the plane, and hump legs. You now have a new nickname: "Black Humper of Death"--yardhippie

Soddy Daisy, Tennessee. Near Chattanooga. So far, my favorite suggestions include Wrong Way, Other Way, Happy Trail (although that doesn't pass the obscenity test), Wong Way, Not A Hiking Trail, The Fast Lane, My Private Place (again, too obscene), etc. Morningwood Way is funny, but it's been done before.

Hi All, It's been a while since I've posted, but I have a momentous decision to make, and I need your help. Travis and I just bought 20 acres on a mountain here in Tennessee, and we plan to build a house. We have a 25 foot road frontage that goes back to the property between two other parcels. My parents are going to retire and build a house on the same property, and I just called to see if I could get two different addresses on the road frontage. The planning commission lady said that we could either do that, or have the 25 foot frontage that runs back to the property be a private county road. AND WE GET TO NAME IT! We get a green road sign and everything. I'm paralyzed with excitement over this. There are three rules: 1. No obscenities 2. 13 characters or less 3. It has to end in Trail, Place, Lane, or Way (but those don't count in the 13 character limit). Suggestions? Brie "Ive seen you hump air, hump the floor of the plane, and hump legs.

Or you could bring a civil suit against him.... Brie "Ive seen you hump air, hump the floor of the plane, and hump legs. You now have a new nickname: "Black Humper of Death"--yardhippie

Travis and I will be there on the 26th.

There is a small contingent of us in Chattanooga - we tend to have taco nights on monday here - you should make the trip one night and join us.

Well, I guess I can post these because Travis already knows what he's getting... Nikon 80D with a good lens Led Zeppelin CDs to replace the TAPES he still has Another little surprise (which I won't post, because he doesn't know about it). I like spoiling my honey. He spoils me all year-round, so it's the least I can do.

Brandy, there are no words. Travis and I are so very sorry for your loss. We'll be there saturday morning. Brie "Ive seen you hump air, hump the floor of the plane, and hump legs. You now have a new nickname: "Black Humper of Death"--yardhippie

Yes, it's not exactly a refund - more of an exchange of the money we would have given them anyway. But it's still an exchange of money for one tandem (which costs the DZ around 50 bucks) for a total of 10 jumps (which cost the DZ much more, especially considering the fact that they flew the otter this weekend several times with only 6 upjumpers in it). It's not much, but it's something. edited to add: if anyone else knows someone who got screwed and has a voucher, Travis and I will be happy to do this again. Yes, I know we're the devil for supporting ASC and Skyride, but the bottom line is that it's the only DZ within 3 hours of us where we can get in a decent number of jumps in one afternoon. And we love to jump with our friends who are on staff there. Brie "Ive seen you hump air, hump the floor of the plane, and hump legs. You now have a new nickname: "Black Humper of Death"--yardhippie

Don't hold your breath. Most mediated settlements are confidential. On a more positive note, Travis and I were able to engineer a refund for teamjenn1 this weekend. It just took us putting the raincheck on our accounts and jumping it off. We'll give them the cash we would have given ASC this weekend. Brie "Ive seen you hump air, hump the floor of the plane, and hump legs. You now have a new nickname: "Black Humper of Death"--yardhippie

You're doing a lot of talking here. How about backing up what you say. Teamjenn1 on this website just had a baby. She's not going to be jumping for years, if ever. I've tried to get Tyler to give her a refund, and I gave him her voucher. Every time I ask him about it, he says he's still working on it. I think if you could engineer a refund for her, it would send a message that you mean what you say. PM me for her info. Tyler at ASC has her voucher.

Woo hoo! When I got sworn in, I had a little sessions court collections case I tried the next day. So here I am, feeling all grown-up and..well...lawyerly. And the sessions judge asked me if I had copies of an exhibit I was entering into evidence. He said, and I QUOTE: "You made copies, right? You young lawyers do do that, don't you?" I barely muffled a laugh. I said MONTHS AGO that it would happen, and it did. I guess I'm not as grown up as I thought. Here's to all the immature fucks out there with bar numbers.

I'm one of three full-time female attorneys in a firm of about 30 attorneys. All of the support staff is female. Brie "Ive seen you hump air, hump the floor of the plane, and hump legs. You now have a new nickname: "Black Humper of Death"--yardhippie

This is not true. I have a friend named Jen (teamjenn1) who just had a baby. She's basically done skydiving, at least for a while. I've been trying to get Tyler to give her a refund on her skyride gift certificate, but every time I ask him about it he says he's still working on it. I'm really not holding my breath. I'm sure he's doing his best, and that it's just the beaurocracy of the company, but it's not reassuring. Brie "Ive seen you hump air, hump the floor of the plane, and hump legs.

I think Travis and I are planning on being there that weekend - we'll be in Florida visiting my parents for Christmas. I don't think I'm good enough for the record, but I'll be cheering you guys on.

Thanks for all your advice. I'm pretty sure it's a fungal infection - my fish does have "hairy" white patches. I did give her some medication this morning - I hope it works. I'm just going to follow the directions on the package and see if it works. After the cycle I'm supposed to change some of the water, which I guess is to help replace some of the good bacteria in the water. For now, I'm just hoping for the best. And trying not to have so much fish angst. Brie "Ive seen you hump air, hump the floor of the plane, and hump legs. You now have a new nickname: "Black Humper of Death"--yardhippie

Hi all, I have a goldfish in my office. I had no idea how much work fish are. But after I bought the bacterial filter, dechlorinater, automatic fish feeder, and got used to cleaning out the tank every 10-14 days, it got a little easier. She was doing great for a while, but now she has a bacterial infection, and she really looks pathetic. She has white patches on her. One of the paralegals in my office is bringing in some antibiotics today. I hope she pulls through it. I never would have thought I'd become so emotionally attached to a fish.

I have numbers! 4 great jumps at the Farm. It was such a nice day. Brie "Ive seen you hump air, hump the floor of the plane, and hump legs. You now have a new nickname: "Black Humper of Death"--yardhippie

Me too. I'm stuck at work from 7:30 to 6, though. Boy oh boy, I just love being a pee-on. Jumpy tomorrow, though. Brie "Ive seen you hump air, hump the floor of the plane, and hump legs. You now have a new nickname: "Black Humper of Death"--yardhippie

I've done 19 in a day packing for myself, but I was helping a friend keep the plane going so he could do 30 on his 30th birthday. I was pretty tired after 15, and I was pretty much a worthless flier for the last couple. 12 a day seems to be a good number for me.

Joe, I was going to send a PM, but you can't receive them. My husband Travis and I got married in a jump plane (the same one we met in), and we'll be glad to donate the footage from the day. I think it shows just how rewarding the sport can be. I flew like shit on the wedding jump, but hey, I'd just gotten married. I know there are other skydiving couples on DZ.com who got married the same way. Maybe doing a short segment on these types of weddings will reinforce the idea that most skydivers stay in it because they have found wonderful relationships, and great friendships. Brie

Wow. Travis and I will be there a lot more then. We love the Farm, but hate the dogs. edit: We don't hate dogs, we just hate their wet and muddy paw prints on our gear. Anyone who has seen Travis play with dogs knows that he doesn't hate them. Edit again: We'll be at this boogie with a contingent of freefliers, doing 6-8 ways. It sounds like fun. We were talking about it this past weekend, and we think the arrival of the Otter will be the revival of good skydiving vibes in the Atlanta area. Good on you, Greg and Hans, for making the Farm a friendly place for up-jumpers.
