980 0 #1 June 9, 2006 Dear Abby (NOT Abbie, so don’t even bother replying, fatby…) I have a friend (not me!) who might have a basejumping addiction. It seems these days people are telling him that he has a jumping problem and it may be affecting his everyday life. He doesn’t think it’s a problem, in fact, I think he’s trying to figure out how to jump even more than he does now. How do I know if my friend has a jumping problem? Is there some kind of support group our counseling available for persons with jumping addictions? I have heard of a 12 step program and mentioned it to him, but he said he is currently on a 1 step program and that it is working pretty good for him. Thanks, Friend-of-busy-jumper.

gweeks 1 #2 June 9, 2006 Dear Friend-of-busy-jumper, Buy your friend some microwavable salisbury steak dinners, a big bag of doritos, a gallon of ice cream and a nice TV. Sit him on the couch for 5 hours a night and watch him get fat. After he gets addicted to a good sit com and a prime time drama and after he adds a few inches to his waist line all of a sudden really living life will seem like a long forgotten dream. Love, Abby Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

980 0 #9 June 9, 2006 Hey now That one crackhead wasn’t begging for money – she was earning it for sure! Packed – only two rigs, but mostly that’s enough. This thread about you? Almost, but not quite yet. Sticking around for a CPC debrief and awards when you could be out doing some real jumping is a real sign of still having fairly normal priorities… Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
