tkhayes 348 #1 January 2, 2006 Some of you have seen our new modular lounge, game room, internet cafe, AFF training and foosball, etc. We took entries for the naming of the buildign and are giving away a free day of skydiving to the winner. Entries we received are as follows: “Clouds Inn Lounge” “George” “City Hall” “It Looks Good but it’s rotten to the core” “Z-Lounge” “Sky Lounge” “Z-Spot” “Wreck Room” “FreeHall” “The Zephyr Hilton” “The Romper Room” “Hotel Hills” “Z-Pod” “The White House” “English Dave’s Doss House” “Lounge Lizard” “The Fly-By Lounge” “Blue Skies Lounge” “The Cave” “The Fallout Shelter” “The Pit” “TK’s” “The Cockpit” maybe highlight 2 or 3 so we can get some popularity of these names and then pick one – we offered a free day of Skydiving to the winner, so I am not disclosing who chose what names. Please participate, since this is something that is important, and we will be using it forever. thanks TK Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CrazyL 0 #3 January 2, 2006 There are some good ones there TK. I like ' Z lounge', maybe modified to 'Z Sky Lounge'. 'TK's' is a real good one too. Making it easy to say is a plus. I'd bet you'll be directing 1st timers there since your AFF training is there also. Glad to hear your adding more goodness to your DZ. Have a great '06 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hookitt 1 #4 January 2, 2006 The CockPit is either a gay bar or a "massage" parlor. Keep in mind gay bars tend to play good dance music and draw quite a crowd and the Massage parlor will probably be raided so lean towards the first if you go with The Cockpit. Z-Spot or TK's is pretty cool.My grammar sometimes resembles that of magnetic refrigerator poetry... Ghetto Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AggieDave 6 #6 January 2, 2006 The "Hook and Hope Lounge" From my typical comment in response to "how do you swoop?" "Close your eyes, grab a front riser, then hook and hope..." Then I start talking about accuracy and landing patterns, followed quickly by "have you signed up for Scott Miller's canopy course coming up in a couple of months? He won't teach you how to swoop during the day long course, but you'll learn the fundamentals, which is where it all starts..."--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

murrays 0 #9 January 3, 2006 How about "The New Odyssey" ... which is a reference to "The Odyssey", an old bar in Z-Hills that catered to a mostly skydiving crowd way back when. TK, I don't think even you are old enough to remember that place. Failing that, I like Z-Lounge or TKs-- Murray "No tyranny is so irksome as petty tyranny: the officious demands of policemen, government clerks, and electromechanical gadgets." - Edward Abbey Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ltdiver 3 #11 January 3, 2006 The name should roll off the tongue easily and make one smile each time it's said. Perris has the "Bombshelter", Eloy the "Bent Prop" (usually shortened to 'The Prop' for me 'cause it just easier to say). I like your choice of “Z-Pod”. Gives a feeling of being able to settle down and feel at home. Plus an air of mystery in the name. ltdiver Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

okalb 104 #23 January 3, 2006 I am all for city hall, but! A lot of people don't know this, but several years ago a bunch of us got together and decided that Phantom was mayor of the dropzone. There was no election or anything as one was not needed. Everyone pretty much agreed that he was the guy. We were going to have buttons and t-shirts made but never got around to it. So if we call it city hall there has to be a photo of mayor Phantom in there.Time flies like an arrow....fruit flies like a banana Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

arlo 0 #25 January 3, 2006 yeah rick. where the hell were you?? the dives were fun and you were definitely missed on them. oren, i still think that phantom's pic should hang in the . he has to have a toothpick in his mouth, though. i just hope everyone respects the bldg enough to not trash the place out. it's an awesome new pad that i am super stoked about. it's always cool seeing everyone at the dz pull together to make something good for the dz itself - like Lake Mottski. thanks TK!
