http://www.perfectjumps.com/ https://www.facebook.com/events/1373710619321875/ Kevin is at it again. Today he's preparing an attempt to complete 300 skydives in 24 hours for Parkinson's Disease. Although, it looks like weather has pushed his start time (originally scheduled for 7pm today) back to 4am tomorrow morning. To date, he's raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for Parkinson's research. This is a great story about overcoming personal tragedy and looking beyond yourself to help others.

http://www.perfectjumps.com/ He was supposed to start his attempt this afternoon, but is on weather delay. It looks like he's shooting for a 4am start tomorrow. There is also a couple facebook pages... Birdshit & Fools Productions "Son, only two things fall from the sky."

Hey! I had everything tied down securely. It's got the towing package. The tires had air. What do you people want? Birdshit & Fools Productions "Son, only two things fall from the sky."

A coach rating, minimum. Or do we let anyone teach unlicensed skydivers these days? I'd agree with this, but earlier this year, I watched a young lady (first time AFF'er) Femur in because of a poor radio operator. The student before her was almost flown into trees! Same guy on radio!! A rating is nice, but common sense and competence are also a good idea. I'm not sure how we accomplish this or what test you'd have to pass?

Well, I've not followed Pro Hockey since the "NORTH Stars" left MN..... I'm still pissed. But, I was amused to hear that the Wild just clinched a playoff spot even though they just lost their 4th straight????? I guess some things never change.

I don't remember seeing this... sorry if it's a repost. http://www.timescall.com/news/ci_29570703/longmont-airport-noise-complaints-down "Airport proponents continue to point out in airport advisory board and City Council meetings that a large portion of the complaints are still made by a very small number of people. In 2014, 52 percent of the complaints were made by one person and another 28 percent of the complaints were made by nine other people. In 2015, 27 percent of the complaints were made by one person and another 33 percent of complaints were made by four other people."

Is anyone following this thread with too much time on your hands? Maybe you're out of work or just need something to do? Maybe you just need a break from the droning plane noise? Or, maybe you want a way to make "positive" change in your community? If so, you should read this.... http://www.timescall.com/longmont-local-news/ci_29657860/longmont-citizen-volunteer-patrol-needs-recruits Remmeber, it's a volunteer posistion so it may not help you pay off any outstanding legal judgments... if you should happen to have any?

Reminder: Kimmie is not a neighbor, unless you consider people 6 miles away to be your neighbors. And this is the same old bat who complained about traffic originating from Centennial Airport THIRTY-NINE MILES AWAY. Agreed! But if all the other neighbors are in your circle of friends, Bat Shit Crazies wil find it harder to drum up support. Birdshit & Fools Productions "Son, only two things fall from the sky."

All things being said..... The one thing we should all take away from this is that Kimmie is the poster child for Airport Access issues. This one demented individual has made life miserable for the good folks at Mile High. ....for years!! Be a good neighbor! Pay it forward with the people around your DZ and build positive relationships with them. Respect their property and rights. They may not like everything we do, but if they like us, they'll tollerate us.

Why does skydiving attract so many conspiracists?

Some of us can still remember when rigs didn't cost $8,000.00? My first new rig was $1500 complete. -
The ice is starting to darken on Medicine lake. Temps are unseasonably warm. This could be the earliest "ice out" in recorded history. Birdshit & Fools Productions "Son, only two things fall from the sky."

The fireworks don't scare me.... a CRW jump into a large city with virtually no outs AT NIGHT? These guys did a great job making it look easy. Nicely done! Birdshit & Fools Productions "Son, only two things fall from the sky."
