jono 0 #5 September 2, 2013 My first second hand rel suit was a bright fluro pink tie-die number. I used to cop a lot of crap for wearing that suit but didn't care at the time because it fitted me perfectly and was mine (not a stinky DZ loana), at least that's what I used to tell myself.

wmw999 2,447 #17 September 2, 2013 No confessions -- I did it all and am fine with it Wendy P. There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence. (tbrown) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
