Is that Tom Harvey driving the bus?

Are you kidding? I still have a hard on from meeting her and that was something like 15 years ago.

We did a demo jump into a concert she did many years ago in Jacksonville, FL. Her, Eddie Money, The Cranberries and Jon Secada. She went out of her way to come and find us to tell us what a great time she had watching us jump. Joked that she'd surely try it one day. Oh yeah, and she's SMOKIN' HOT!

Joe gave me my rigger "course" in DeLand in Sept. '72 and wrote the letter for me. I was there at 8:00 AM, Monday morning and Joe goes to the refridgerator and gets a pitcher of beer left over from the night before. He says, "When you finish this, we'll start." It took a while to get those first few pack jobs done.

Is it Peter doing his Bill O'Reilly impression?

Those bone heads should know better. Three regular jumpers worked next to them in Jacksonville. Me, Trane and Fizz at WAPE.FM. They must be phoning it in these days.

Come to think of it, I would have been amazed if they were dealt out in a row from the deck, but as all poker players know, one card goes in the muck pile before the flop, turn and river. So in that case the aces were shuffled so they came out A, A, muck, A, muck, and A. Pretty neat to see that on the board though. About once a month, I'll see the flop come out all the same number or letter - 222, 444, KKK, etc... I just haven't seen all 4 on the board like that yet. That's just the thing. This particular group doesn't muck a card before dealing the community cards. Yeah I know, it's strange, but that's how they've played for years. So it was, in fact 4 aces in a row. Whatever...I finished just out of the money anyway.

My monthly game with the guys. 6-A-A flop, 2 guys in, A on the turn, A on the river. 4 aces dealt in a row, what are the odds?

[My husband is fucking French every night. He's never complained! That's okay. Gareth's fucking Brit every night. His left hand or his right, they're both Brit. I kid. We miss you G. Kel has healed quite nicely and we'd love to have you come visit.

Holy shit! How is it that he's getting older and I'm not? Happy B'day Mad John. KelicopTer sends her love, too. Him.. Him... Fcuk Himmmmm.

HAHA are they going to extend the wheelchair and zimmer frame access to accommodate the bands and patrons Now that's just mean. Gareth's not THAT old. I'd go with you Gareth...except my Alzheimer's has gotten worse and I can't remember how to get back to the Bay Area. Have fun.

They're killing me. One BOC earlier, now batteries forever.

wOOt. Dammit I want a BOC!

So long, Wes. Thanks for the good times with Burning Sky.

Jeez did the inside of Lucaya look that dingy? I seem to remember it as all rainbows and unicorns. Perhaps I might have been influenced by...the fog of time...yeah, that's it.

Z-Hills, Turkey Meet 89 ? Maybe Lucas K in the first pic, left side, purple and pink rig? Some of the other faces I remember, just not names to go with them. I think I might be somewhere in the back of the 2nd pic. It's all a blur to me now.

TX jumpers. If you know Karen please forward my contact info. [email protected] No, it's not official business. Just lost track and would like to connect. Thx

Got it just last fall in a twin Cessna over the Burning Man festival. Even got a very official looking winged pin to commemorate the occasion. I wear it on the lanyard for my ID badge. It looks so official that people often ask what I earned the "wings" for. I just tell them "for promoting flight safety".

HEY! Easy there.

That's an understatement. At least it gave us time for a nap, though.

Nah. He was a Cali jumper.

Is that Mike (Mad Dog) Maguire back row, 4th from right? It's just too fuzzy to be sure. Pretty sure it's taken at Palatka, though. Did Uncle Don Yahrling have a beard back then? If so, that could be him on the far right, back row.
