  1. I'm so sorry to hear about Bill, but really glad that you all (pronounced y'all) had the opportunity to spend another Safety Day together! skydiveTaylorville.org [email protected]
  2. Why doesn't dz.com have a "like" button? I like your post. Sorry that you have to post it. skydiveTaylorville.org [email protected]
  3. Contact the jumpers at Skydive Superior. They jump in snow about 11.5 months a year! skydiveTaylorville.org [email protected]
  4. I always thought that "T and A" referred to "Tits and Ass". It must mean something else to you, since "t and a" are definitely in this series. skydiveTaylorville.org [email protected]
  5. I love this series, and especially love the fact that Streaker and I have had enough time to watch the entire first season together. Excellently written, directed and acted. I also love the DC scenery. skydiveTaylorville.org [email protected]
  6. I love your enthusiasm and wish you lots of luck in your skydiving career. My favorite people are skydivers. I will leave you with a joke. What do you call a skydiver without a girlfriend? skydiveTaylorville.org [email protected]
  7. def check out Taylorville, they are a great group, and growing. They sponsor bigger planes several times a year and are on FB at Mid America Sport Parachute Club. I go there when I can, only wish I could go more frequently! skydiveTaylorville.org [email protected]
  8. He'll be a part of me forever. skydiveTaylorville.org [email protected]
  9. This is one of the reasons there have never been naked photos of me. Things travel in the digital age...and you can't trust anyone. Well there is THAT, but that is NOT the reason there are no naked pics of ME! skydiveTaylorville.org [email protected]
  10. after sex Sorry you have an owwy! I have dropped my chainsaw on my steel toed boots before, made the leather pretty ugly, didn't hurt my foot. Dumb me tho, I frequently grab the saw while wearing sneakers. If I leave my house, I have high impact glasses on. Period. They are so cheap and they have nice designs now. I learned that lesson after grabbing a plant and sticking it through my eye, then repeating it 3 years later. That surgery was no fun, and my vision hasn't been the same since. Some of us are slow learners. skydiveTaylorville.org [email protected]

    Deuce Matters

    Hi Yvette - he sure will. Happy to see you here.
  13. His funeral visitation will be 4-7pm on Tuesday and again on Wedensday starting at noon, service will be at 1pm, with lunch being served afterwards. I know that his skydiving friends are from all over the world, but ALL are more than welcome to come. This is a message I recieved yesterday afternoon from Kortney. I hope that we all will continue to keep this brave young lady in our thoughts and prayers as she puts her fathers final wishes in motion. skydiveTaylorville.org [email protected]
  14. Just got a FB msg from Kortney. She says that she will attend to funeral arrangements tomorrow AM and will be letting us all know what they are as soon as it is settled. She is hoping that there will be a skydiving tribute as soon as the Wisconsin weather breaks. skydiveTaylorville.org [email protected]
  15. I just have to tell one quick RevJim story, from WFFC days. When we would first set up every year, we (the staff members) bunked together in the Grissom Hall building. As the crowd of volunteers grew, we would use more and more rooms, but still 10 or 12 to a room. My nephew stayed in the same room with RevJim and about 3 other underaged kids plus a bunch of the older guys like RevJim. The kids would head back to the bunk house and take bets on which adult would be the last one back. My nephew bet on RevJim every night, and he won. EVERY night! skydiveTaylorville.org [email protected]
  16. Cathy, I want you to know how much I thought of your brother! He was fun, light hearted and he never took himself seriously. He brought so much fun to the WFFC that I could never have done that whole crazy event without the likes of him! The night that Fast Eddie called me to tell me that Johnny had taken his last jump, seems like a yesterday nightmare to me. I still miss Johnny. I always will. skydiveTaylorville.org [email protected]
  17. I'm married to a man with no immune system. Yes, sucks for him. We got our flu shots in Oct. when they first came out, because we were told that for him it was a matter of life and death and that they took a MONTH to take hold. So for those of you who haven't had one yet GO NOW PULL PULL PULL! Those ants look like people and it is ALMOST too late! skydiveTaylorville.org [email protected]
  18. THere is a folder of pics being compiled, for those of you who would like to share your love of Freddy with the family. Go to "World Free Fall Convention Friends" on FB and add yours. Teresa Huner (who was part of the Pitts Crew at both Quincy and Rantoul) will contact the family to let them know they have permission to use the pics for the memorial. Thanks everyone. Yea, I'm gonna miss this guy alot! I have some of the best stories, thanks to my friend, Freddy! skydiveTaylorville.org [email protected]
  19. You are absolutely right Gary! I have noticed how many guys used that inverted pic of them dropping from Freddies plane as their FB icon. I'll bet alot of them didn't even know his name. He is just that cool bi plane pilot to them. They don't know what he went thru to get that modification approved for their jumping pleasure! skydiveTaylorville.org [email protected]
  20. Word come to us tonight that Freddie Cabanas, stunt bi plane pilot of WFFC fame was lost in a plane crash in Cozumel Mexico today. Apparently there was a journalist as a passenger, who is also deceased. Blue skies Freddie! Your legend will go on forever! skydiveTaylorville.org [email protected]
  21. Check with Patrick Mercier for dz's in France. He jumps in France and America, teaches French and English. He is on FB, and on here as FrenchCloud skydiveTaylorville.org [email protected]
  22. We had a Quad at the WFFC make a jump with a TI who spent some time preparing for the event. She was put in a harness that he had modified just for her, to keep her legs out of the way while he was landing. They had to prepare O2 for her, for on the plane, and to have as soon as she landed. It was very successful, but planned well in advance. It was her lifes quest to do such a thing, and as it turned out, she died 4 days later of her illness. We were very happy to have helped with her dream. skydiveTaylorville.org [email protected]
  23. Having spent some time with these people, it seems to me that one year of every term is spent doing absolutely nothing but running for the next term. We need to have 4 year terms for Congress with a limit of 2. Then they should have to live on Social Security and whatever pension they put away, or another job, like the rest of us do. skydiveTaylorville.org [email protected]
