Baksteen 84 #1 March 3, 2008 Just thought I'd share this little anecdote.. Feel free to ignore, or post (counter)"war of the sexes" anecdotes. Last week the weather finally allowed me do make a jump. Nothing fancy, just your basic canopy control jump. However, a long period of inactivity had caused the jumpsuit I normally wear to shrink significantly (there can be no other reason, it must have been the damp or something) so I had a bit of difficulty getting it to zip up. Just as I managed and tried to determine whether I was actually still able to breathe, a girl walks past and stops to inspect the package. Glancing down i notice that the jumpsuit acts like a nice corset, compressing any...irregularities that were definitely not present. Suddenly I thought of the perfect thing to say to her - something that would vindicate all men since the invention of low cut tops. I gave the girl a Look and said: "I never thought I'd say this to a woman - but my eyes are up here you know..." I don't know what was more amusing, the look on her face, or those on the group of men that happened to stand behind her..."That formation-stuff in freefall is just fun and games but with an open parachute it's starting to sound like, you know, an extreme sport." ~mom Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wmw999 2,517 #2 March 3, 2008 OK, that's way funny Wendy W. 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
