  1. Thank you. Do your part for global warming: ban beans and hold all popcorn farts.

  3. Fun jumper wants to do some jumping between treatments. Do your part for global warming: ban beans and hold all popcorn farts.
  4. We were jumping Mike Mullins' King Air that was "probably" the fastest jump aircraft at that time. Before we took off we all hooked up to the oxygen console and had a pre-breathe session 30 +- minutes? Long time ago. After we took off and climbed to a designated altitude before jump altitude, the jump master had us disconnect from the console and hook up to our bale out bottles. It was here that the guy that went limp because he failed to get a good connection to his bail out bottle. The jump master immediately went over and connected him, bringing him around, alert and wanting to jump, but the jump master made him ride the aircraft down. In fact, the jump master rode down with him. The rest of us went out to -30f (we were told) and had a "long" fall. I wish you well in your HALO jump.

  5. Is there any jumping going on at Lost Prairie before the boogie? After? Do your part for global warming: ban beans and hold all popcorn farts.
  6. Whether it was a canned performance with a selected audience or not, I'm sure everyone went away touchy feely good (the main performer could be selling the "worlds best blender" at 3:am on the Shopping Channel). I feel the traditional spirit of American charity is degraded when when organizations like Wounded Warriors use our wounded troops as stage props to make a living. It makes you wonder how much each individual from the phone operator up to Trace Atkins makes on these poor men and women. There are plenty of local/national veteran organizations to support knowing that they are all 100% volunteer. Did you ever think how much the guy doing the canned performance is getting? At least it's voluntary. The U.S. Army used to make the troops cough up money for the bums running the "United Way". Do your part for global warming: ban beans and hold all popcorn farts.
  7. Excellent. Do your part for global warming: ban beans and hold all popcorn farts.
  8. You definitely have a handle on things here. Oh well; back to a little research. Thanks. Do your part for global warming: ban beans and hold all popcorn farts.
