  1. 2:5:1 3 tandems. First working weekend. 2 freefly. It's a gift, I don't try to explain it.
  2. :2:???? Took my wife on two tandems to complete my TI rating. It's a gift, I don't try to explain it.
  3. We got full alti all day on Sunday. Started at 8 and finished at 8. It's a gift, I don't try to explain it.
  4. When I built mine all the inspector did was check the VIN and engine numbers. We are supposed to have signals in KS but when I got pulled over once because I forgot to put the new registration sticker on the trooper commented about the lack of turn signals but didn't write me up. I was very careful to use appropriate arms signals though when he lit me up. It's a gift, I don't try to explain it.
  5. "Evil began in a time before recorded history, when magicians made themselves into kings…and gods…using the powers of the dark side of the Force. The weak-minded have ever been ready to obey one who wields great power. Those who learned the powers of the dark side were quick to exploit this weakness—to make war. Again and again the dark side has surged forth, like a storm…devouring whole worlds and entire star systems. Those who mastered dark power became dark power. They unleashed destruction, for no other reason for selfish gain. They despoiled nations…destroyed whole civilizations. Some of them, I am ashamed to say, were Buff's." It's a gift, I don't try to explain it.
  6. 0:5:0 3 tandems, 2 more to TI. 2 jumps lurking tandems. It's a gift, I don't try to explain it.
  7. :4: 1 ff yesterday before winds kicked up, AGAIN! Phase I level 3-4-5 today towards TI. The terminal one burned up some alti in a hurry. It's a gift, I don't try to explain it.
  8. WTF! Does he know you refer to him as "my partner?" Hey we're still freeflying and looking for a new vidiot. You, on the other hand, are now just handling meat. He is a damn sellout! That's just mean! It's a gift, I don't try to explain it.
  9. 1:3:?? One ff Saturday before winds kicked up. One ff Sunday then TI level II before winds kicked up again. The TI jump went off great but the last time I remember being that nervous exiting the plane was when my IAD instructor looked at me and said, "I do not have your pilot chute." It's a gift, I don't try to explain it.
  10. WTF! Does he know you refer to him as "my partner?" It's a gift, I don't try to explain it.
  11. Made one for Christmas dinner with family today. Cornbread and sausage stuffing between the meat layers. I married into a Holderman Mennonite family so they are used to pretty ordinary and traditional meals. This however, was a big hit. They're getting used to me doing Cajun and Creole meals for them. It's a gift, I don't try to explain it.
  12. True that! It's a gift, I don't try to explain it.
  13. Once. Anxiety. I had just arrived and was jumping by myself at Eloy about two years ago. A ff organizer came over and asked if I wanted to be on their sunset tracking dive. During the dirt dive I looked around at the people on the dive and realized I was way out of my league. I was so intimidated that about half way through the dive I realized I was holding my breath. It's a gift, I don't try to explain it.
  14. Not since Johnny Fairplay have I loved hating somebody so much. It's a gift, I don't try to explain it.

  16. The word is out. It's a gift, I don't try to explain it.
  17. Sorry to hear you're getting ripped off. When I dealt with you and your campany early this year I thought you were a very stand-up guy. That said, if you can't help Gary out with this asshole from Washington, help him out by shooting him business. ****This was not a paid advertisement**** It's a gift, I don't try to explain it.
  18. 0:11:0 Actually didn't jump this weekend. Drove to SDD and made one Thursday and 10 Friday then made the 6 hour drive back to KS to find high winds. It's a gift, I don't try to explain it.
  19. No complains here. Difference between you and me, I wouldn't have let the bitch live long enough to take the pics. Here in the midwest Brown Recluses are thick as thieves and when it starts getting hot they start moving to cooler places. We found one in my office last week. I just hate eight legged creatures. It's a gift, I don't try to explain it.
  20. Jeremy and I will be down second weekend in August. Maybe we can do a raft dive. NOT!!! It's a gift, I don't try to explain it.
  21. I'm curious. Did you have a functioning alti on that night jump. Because if you actually made the jump without it, I'm calling you on beer. It's a gift, I don't try to explain it.
  22. 0:4:0 Landed off. Do tell. It's a gift, I don't try to explain it.
  23. It used to be. Chef Mike is not running it anymore. It was the best food for miles untill he left. Now its just food. Chef Mike did have some interesting creations. But overall, it's still better than most dz food. And where the hell were you Friday? It's a gift, I don't try to explain it.
  24. Her parents must be really proud. It's a gift, I don't try to explain it.
  25. 0:3:0 I ff with Buff. Jolly good. 2 h-n-p's. I think maybe I'll quit trying to ff with Ashley. We get cloud covered on the climb everytime we try. Spent most of the weekend looking at real estate. Found out today I bought another house. It's a gift, I don't try to explain it.
