TheMarshMan1 0 #85 January 20, 2002 Hmm...what have I given up...A 4-yr. degree from a private school (transferring to a state college ), an apartment, a car, some flying/flight ratings, my parents respect (they just dont get it, never will), a girlfriend, and maybe a friend or two (I try to stay in touch with my whuffo friends, but its getting harder and harder, they dont get it either)...seems like a lot, but definitely nothing that wasnt worth the sacrafice. All this will never compare to the people I've met and fun I've had (and will continue to have) skydiving...Blue skies forever,-Marshall Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites skydiver51 0 #86 January 20, 2002 " Certainly sounds like you have a keeper...I still stand by my first statement...LMAO Women are just that way......
