AndyMan 7 #1 July 28, 2003 Marked the big 500 with a (beer) gutter-gear jump, I took a 24 foot Para-Commander out for a spin. It was packed in a Crossbow, with a lo-po belly-wart. Turned 8 points on a two way, we wanted bigger but came up short on the number of in-date resrves. Landed in 8 feet of corn. I wanna go again! _Am__ You put the fun in "funnel" - craichead.

CanuckInUSA 0 #2 July 28, 2003 Congrats on your 500th dude. But I'm not so sure about the Para-Commander choice. Try not to worry about the things you have no control over Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Flygator 0 #7 July 28, 2003 Way to go! I still have a ways to go before I hit the big 500th! The secret to life is not arriving at the grave in a well preserved body but sliding in sideways completely worn out yelling "holy crap" what a ride!!!

EricaH 0 #12 July 29, 2003 Whoo hooo!! that's awsome Andy!! How very cool - way to celebrate an advancement in your skydiving, by going back in time. Hope the landing didn't hurt & the corn didn't stab you I knew I missed something this weekend Guess you'll pay up by buying us all a round of beer @ rantoul - right? There is no can't. Only lack of knowledge or fear. Only you can fix your fear. PMS #227 (just like the TV show) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

EricaH 0 #14 July 29, 2003 Yup - I sure do know & can't wait to see how much of the light flavor almost water I can consume!! All you can drink - pahh, All you can serve But it's because I knew that I thought you'd be offering the first round. Someone has to go get it from the tent. There is no can't.
