jacketsdb23 49 #1 February 17, 2007 Wow, this has been a shitty week. I'm supposed to be on a plane right now back to California. I was to have a fun filled weekend of jumping. Unfortuneately my plane here in Memphis is not cooperating. Got on board and one of the call buttons got stuck. Constant Ding! Ding! Ding!...SO LOUD. I'm SO pissed off. We got off the plane and now we have to wait for contract maintenance to fix the problem. oh nice, i'm looking out the window and our luggage is being taken off the plane....shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit.Losers make excuses, Winners make it happen God is Good Beer is Great Swoopers are crazy.

warpedskydiver 0 #5 February 17, 2007 GTFO of Memphis, you are in a shitty area. Besides, what are you trying to do, donate your car to the drug addicts or what? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AeroPark 0 #10 February 18, 2007 Gene - That's "Stuck Inside of Mobile with the Memphis Blues Again". John C & I once spent 5 minutes in Memphis. That's how long it took us to run pell mell from our gate in Memphis to the connecting flight that was taking us to Deland. Fog was miserable that night. Thank goodness we carried our rigs on. Our luggage, however, never made the flight. Of course this was December and we were dressed for Wisconsin. Our luggage never showed up until 3 days later. Had to borrow shorts and t-shirts from Joester & Sharyn. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
