Deuce 1 #8 May 31, 2005 Good. Bring it, sweetie! Having been really big, a 300 pounder, I just crack up that some folks that met me at 190 are being so petty now that I'm 220. I've got great excuses, but I'm not an excuse-maker. I just wonder at the cruelty of the fun-makers. Having been at nearly 300 pounds, and having started skydiving at about 200, it's remarkable how nasty folks are about me being at a heavier weight than when I started.

gmittar 0 #11 May 31, 2005 I'm about 15 pounds heavier than when I started too. My damn freefly pants don't fit so well anymore. Course at 170 no one says a damn thing. |>.<| Seriously, W.T.F. mate? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I also tease people about landing in trees, fucking fat chicks, inadvertently pulling their reserve on the ground, getting bit until they bleed, having more reserve rides than is typical for their experience level, going low, taking too long to get to the formation, holding up the load because they didn't get ready on time, not knowing how to pack, arguing stupid premises, etc, etc, etc. I don't get quite as much as I give, but I wouldn't mind if I did.

This whole running around in Iraq with 60Lbs of gear in 110F heat is a wonderful weight loss program though. Maybe I should put out the "Clay's Gotta Sweat all Iraqi work out tape."
