Minority Boogies.

[miked10270 0]

OK... Now that there's a "Gay" skydiving boogie / day to go along with "Chicks-Rock", "Pops", "Pofs", etc... What specialised Boogie would you attend & why?

Just to set the tone, I wanna be at The REDNECK Boogie. Pickup trucks... Weight-vests full of beer & jerky... Round canopies (the only "squares" allowed are ones made out of bedsheets)... Out-Landings are fair game as "Skeet"... Imported Cars (especially French ones) raining out of the back of skyvans...

Mike.

PS: I'm guessing that someone's gonna post the sort of boogie that'll keep this in SC.

Taking the piss out of the FrenchAmericans since before it was fashionable.

I would like to have a Christian boogie, where I can meet other people who are followers of Christ.
There could be a time for prayer,worship,etc, and I could stay away from things that I don't like seeing at a dz.

You can do that anyway. Unless what you really mean is "no one will do anything that might offend me."

Those are two different things.

Maybe she means people walking in on her in the showers and chewing her out for being "up tight" about it. maybe she means being on the dance floor and having every third 20 year old asswipe getting in her face yelling "show us yer tits". Maybe she means not walking through seven puddles of vomit on the way to the camper. Maybe she means a clean toilet.

God, just talking about this I want to go to a boogie right now.

But I can sympathize anyway.

but I don't think it's kind to turn it about on her for stating her comfort zone. (And I think you phrased it kindly, but ...)

Now that's a good idea! Talk to the guy who runs the CSA; I think his last name is Sxott. We did all sorts of shapes during last year's Performance Plus jumps. You guys xould do a big cross or something.

Hmm, how about the Bondage Boogie?

Do I really need to say why?

[windcatcher 0]

I happen to like boogies, and rehmwa, it has nothing to do with comfort level. I grew up camping and hunting, I can handle the dirtiness.

I would just like to have a Christian boogie where I could meet other Christians and have a more family-friendly atmosphere for once.

I propose the [B]ATHEISTS' BOOGIE. Just to see supposedly tolerant people show that they aren't, really.

Because atheists are clearly not supposed to have rights, and everyone knows atheists are evil, amoral people.

No one will be allowed to pray to god for a successful skydive. In fact, everyone will be required to be responsible for the success of his/her own skydive.

And everyone will be expected to be nice to other people because that's a better way to make the world work in a peaceful, pleasant manner and to make life good, and not because they fear eventual punishment for misbehavior and mistreatment of their fellows.

Get rolling and organize one! You seem to have a lot of energy. I'm sure that Mark could give you some great tips on getting started with organizing a boogie.

I wanted to, but I don't have the time right now. Someday though, I'd like to start one ( or have someone else start one)

Go for it! I'd go; would attract interesting peopler.

Woah. OK, maybe not. I'd prefer a boogie like the gay boogie where all are welcome and there are no exclusive rules like that.

There could be a competition to see who can walk the farthest on the swoop pond.

But I'm curious to see how that rule will be enforced. Silent prayer police, perhaps?

[wmw999 2,485]

You're right about the comfort zone thing. Having a Christian boogie would define a certain comfort zone. And there's nothing wrong with that. It's what a lot of the other boogies are about. I can talk about the brand of tampon I use at JFTC without having to look hard for someone. At POPS I can ogle the guys, knowing that none of them is young enough to be my son

The biggest problem with JFTC was the line in the ladies' room . That's usually never a problem at a dropzone.
