barguy 0 #1 August 25, 2004 I am just getting started skydiving and I love everything about this sport. I did 2 tandem fun jumps and ordered my rig. I've gone through all of my training, been cleared for solo jumping, and am now working on getting my A license. I have been in the bar business for over a decade and I thought that the family that I developed at work was a tightest and craziest bunch that I would ever be involved with. I was wrong. I got hooked up with the gang at Skydive Tallahassee and I was exposed to a whole new group that took me under their wings, taught me how to fly, and let me become part of thier crazy family. I can't wait to meet more of the jumping world and experience all that skydiving has to offer. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites barguy 0 #4 August 26, 2004 Thanks for the words of encouragement. I'll be at the boogie but I won't be able to get out there until sunday. I manage Bullwinkles which is a bar on the strip. Since FSU is playing UAB at home I will be working 16 - 20 hrs on Fri and Sat. I'm going to get out to the DZ as soon as I can on Sun. The only sanity saving part of the weekend (other than the jumping, of course) will be Fri night. I will be behind the bar instead of fighting thru the crowd. If you get in Fri night come in and see me. The cover is only $10 but drinks are free from 9 - 1. Friday before game day is always a good time. See you in the sky.
