dropped from a heart attack as he started to walk in from the peas 4 days ago or so... first ash dive this saturday in Star

Kirk Bastian (aka "Bounce") and the family laid Fonnesbeck to rest yesterday (10-15-11). Funeral was packed, they had to open the extra area to make room. Some good jump stories were told, but the it lasted a solid hour and a half. Now I remember why Frisby never went to the marryin' or the buryin'!

Murray and I bought a thousand bucks worth of fireworks and don't know what to do with them...

We are gonna look for some big (1 3/4") ball bearings and see if we can put one clear through a railroad tie, or a cop car... film at 11.

Naked Female Personnel, no naked you or me. We will shoot the cannon and will try to put a round clear through the telephone pole and water tower or maybe the fuel tank... we are in need of ball bearings the size of a golf ball...
