  1. Bummer - I just cancelled my trip for Wednesday/Thursday to Sacramento... Wednesday was a Geologic Symposium, then Thursday was Project Manager meetings - But I could have probably got done early.. I even have a Skydance ticket in my logbook.. But alas, I'm gonna stay down here in Fresno/Clovis.. Once the plane takes off, you're gonna have to land - Might as well jump out!!
  2. Actually, Thank you for this repost.. I had not seen it before... Once the plane takes off, you're gonna have to land - Might as well jump out!!
  3. You say that like I don't have hand-made thin sections of Sierra Nevada Granodiorite at my house... Once the plane takes off, you're gonna have to land - Might as well jump out!!
  4. Wow - Beautiful... Once the plane takes off, you're gonna have to land - Might as well jump out!!
  5. Dry Heaves are the worst.. Seriously.. Get some Nilla Wafers and sprite.. This works for sea sickness also.. You keep hydrated with the sprite and drink water also.. Eat Nilla Waifers with it.. The Nillas adsorb the stomach acids and give you some energy.. The liquids keep you hydrated and the sprite washes out all the "scum".. Now - You will still get sick and throw up again.. But - IT TASTES A HELL OF A LOT BETTER COMMING UP !! But seriously.. Then you eat some more Nilla Waifers and keep some liquids in you.. Your body can deal with the sickness a lot better. And you don't tear yourself up with dry heaves.. You acutally throw something up and your body relaxes.. I did a geology survey cruise in Monterey Bay years ago.. At night we traversed the bay parallel with the swell to get good sonar of the trench.. Almost EVERYONE on the ship was sick as hell - even most of the regular deck hands.. I ended up standing 2.5 watch shifts that night (4 hour watches) making depth recordings and plotting location points.. The next day as everyone was still getting up sick they kept asking me - Don't you get sick?? I said Yes I do.. And threw up every 40 minutes all night long.. But, my body could deal with it from keeping the acid adsorbed, no dry heaves, and fluids.. And, as noted before - It tastes a hell of a lot better comming back up Once the plane takes off, you're gonna have to land - Might as well jump out!!

    RC Helicopter

    Yep, Allan Jr. is one of the best, or the best depending on how any one competitions go. I got to meet Allan a few years ago when he was in Fresno for our R/C Helicopter meet.. He was a Jr. National Champion then.. He has done a great job and all his family is a great bunch. I took Allan on a Tandem jump two years ago after I did the lunch demo into the helicopter event.. We took him out to the DZ about 30 miles from the flying site.. He was very aware of the entire jump (Cessna 182 from 10K).. But, he was already a full-scale heli pilot already and was pretty comfortable in aircraft.. Yep, when I grow up, I wanna fly like Allan.

  12. Those two on the left of Pic No. 8 should be arrested.. They just look like their up to no good.. Chop and Deuce I miss ya.. Once the plane takes off, you're gonna have to land - Might as well jump out!!

  14. Aragon.. Just saw it yesterday with my wife and son... He loved it.. We laughed that some lines were very much like Star Wars - The sith, Qui-gon-gin (sp?), the battles for freedom, etc.. Once the plane takes off, you're gonna have to land - Might as well jump out!!
  15. I didn't make it to the end.. How did the landing go??? Once the plane takes off, you're gonna have to land - Might as well jump out!!
  16. [replyOh well, my 5 min of fame is of the side of my head. What do you mean.. You are shown several times.. Very cute, just sitting there on national TV playing with your feet in the warm mint bath... The only thing you missed was - "After a hard day skydiving, I would love this" You looked great Hon.

  17. I don't usually watch football - skydiving and all that other stuff gets in the way.. But, I started watching the Dallas/Saints game.. It was F...ing great... I picked it up in the second quarter and the Saints had just got a TD with less than two minutes.. Next I know Dallas has more points before the half.. Then the turn-overs.. 4th quarter on-side kick, interception in the end zone.. It was just a hoot.. I was expecting the reverse fullback pass!!
  18. Hey Beautiful - How are you doing

    throat/neck?

    Vicodin + Beer = No more sore throat.. But to be serious.. Go to the infirmary!!! Once the plane takes off, you're gonna have to land - Might as well jump out!!
  20. I can hear it now... "Hey Ya'll, Watch THIS".. Once the plane takes off, you're gonna have to land - Might as well jump out!!
  21. I saw A Chorus Line back when 'it was' on broadway.. Very nice, however you do have to appreciate a real musical - meaning more traditional.. Which I do - laugh.. I've also seen 'A Few Good Men' and 'La Cage Aux Faul'.. They were also very good, but a much different style of entertainment than say "Stomp" - Which was very cool.. And Skymama, regarding clothes, most of the suggestions are right on with the business/formal for an evening show and even jeans/sweater for the day.. But, I would really stay away from any sandals.. It is gonna be COLD... Go get yourself and your daughter a comfortable set of heeled boots.. Something you can step off the curb into some nice icy water and not be bummed
  22. .. Like it was all your mom's fault I have a lot of traits from my mother and father, but would say that I am probably more like my uncle.. On my mom's side, so don't go there
  23. Congratulations for you and Bryant.. Trust me, he will miss you.. I bought my ticket to fly cross the country when I entered.. My parents upgraded it to 1st class without me knowing it.. That was actually a great supprise.. Get ready to send gum, cookies (enough to share), and notes that say you love him. It can be a great time in his life and I hope you are very proud..

  24. Pretty funny.. I met the guy dressed as the Duff Beer Man last March.. He was in Kentucky working as a rigger for the PJ's.. We were doing Tandems outa C-130's and he got to go as a passenger.. He said he was gonna start AFF after that.. I guess he's jumping now.. Or, maybe he was just smart enough to go to the party Once the plane takes off, you're gonna have to land - Might as well jump out!!
