hisgoofyness 0 #26 July 15, 2002 2 : 0 : 1 Was at the DZ Friday and Saturday, but the weather sucked ass. Had relative work to do Sunday, and guess what... The weather cleared up... Therefore, I didn't even get to put my new rig in the air... That SUCKS! Anyway, my first was for the first time I pied someone for post numbers. We pied Clay Friday night for his 10,000th post... What a post-whore ! hisgoofyness Goudha is for Buddha, and that's good enough for me! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rachill 0 #27 July 15, 2002 3:3:1 Beer owed for first camera jump! 2-way sit with Slappie... He is kicking ass! Watched the rain the rest of the weekend But packing my bags today to go to Canada for a week!!! Woohoo!!! BooYa#1 GR#50 You might be a skydiver if...

GrumpySmurf 0 #28 July 15, 2002 (Forbidden from answering, United Airlines forced woman to take 9 days off with pay - terrible I tell you): 0 (Busy with woman and other stuffs): 1 Ended up with a last minute 'Woman in tow malfunction', so I didn't go to the DZ. But we did get in a good bit of drinking, amongst other stuff. Saturday morn - piled over a friends house to use his curb to prop up one side of the car while using the jack to prop the other - got to do my very first (beer?) Porsche oil change (the shop charges around $150 - $200 for it, I figured I could do it myself) - filled 'er up with 9.2 quarts (the joy of having the radiators in the front and the engine in the back) of brand new Mobil 1 synthetic, without burning myself or getting myself covered in hot oil. So if anyone needs a oil change on a 986 Boxster or 996 Carerra - you buy the oil and a case of beer between the two of us ... Next month's project are the brake pads. Got to visit a quirky place called 'House on the Rock' here in Wi. - quite odd! I don't think there are many words that can describe it, other than everyone should see this place at least once in thier lives - it's basically 2.5 miles of eclectic art collections and displays - geared towards one's playful imagination.

Slappie 9 #37 July 15, 2002 1{first time at a "hoity toity" beer bar downtown Houston place called The Flying Saucer}:1 {2-way sit with Rachill}:1 {maybe} First opening with line twists. 4 wraps had to kick out. Quote2-way sit with Slappie... He is kicking ass! Wahoooo that makes me feel good!! I was worried about my skills till we went on that jump I think in about 10 or 15 more jumps maybe sooner I'll be ready for the FreeFly League!! hehe watch out I want FIRST PLACE!! hehehe The beer bar was pretty cool I have to admit. I'm not much of a beer snob but they have a beer to meet ANYONES tastes. Something like 250 beers on-tap. I was pretty twisted by the time we left. They've got Flying Saucers in other cities too. Not sure where though. Nice place for a "Beer Snob Bar" "Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them."
