  1. An even better question justabill is why I havent jumped with you more at Goshen, you can slum it sometimes in the Cessna you know. And we do bring in turbines. Thanks so much for your volunteering your abode. I personally am going to pass out face down in a puddle of my own sick right on the dance floor.
  2. Thanks so much westcoastchica for the words of encouragement. You rock!!!!!! No you all rock for helping with this, Renee, Val, Wendy, Lara and everyone else. Shit with all these hotties on the auction block I might do something stupid so I can get dumped and bid on one of you. What am I thinking, for some reason she puts up with this idiot, I guess I better count my blessings. And for once Val I'm doing something good for my fellow man and not to just look good, but I will get ridiculously drunk and make an ass out of myself that night.
  3. Hey Guys, First let me start by saying that Westcoastchica is one of the coolest fucking people I have ever had an email from. Her words of encouragement, thanks and support rocked!! Here are some answers to the questions . 1. Comfort Suites in Elkhart. We are reserving a block depending on demand. 2. If you want to bid on something you will have to go to the page on our website that lists the items and have someone bid for you as it will be a live auction. Tell them what you want and what you will be willing to spend and do it that way probably. 3. Two definates for the love slave auction are Me and Bo, wether he likes it or not. I don't know if the five bucks a piece we will get will be worth it or not. Other than that no one has formally offered themselves up yet. Again, thanks to everyone that has helped. If you would like to help further do these things. 1. go here.
  4. Thanks Val, Thats very flattering. And if it would make the dz go and Bo happy I would, cause I know he would bid away all the proceeds on her. Thanks for the complement, I dont know why she is with me either, way too hot for me. Maybe it has something to do with the fact that I can part my hair with my tongue. Oh and Kramer, who was your first jumpmaster, did you do s/l, how many jumps you got now, and yes I am dating her now. She felt the sheer enormousity in her back on the tandem and she wanted big poppa for hers to keep. I have taken her on 6 tandems and a level 1 AFF. This season she will get her license. Just want to thank everyone again. Bo, Paula, Myself and everyone are so gratful. For all of you that are involved and may not know Bo that well I will tell you that his friendship and gratitude come with a lifetime guarantee. He is hands down my best friend after Vanessa and no one deserves good things and the chance to make his dream come true more than him.
  5. Hey folks, Ward here. For those of you who don't know me, and don't dislike me YET, I jump at Goshen and am so impressed with all the help of you amazing people. Thank you so much for everything. And Wendy, we have met, wether you'll remember or not is another thing but we have. I am going to explain what is going on with the auction real quick like. On March 6th we will be having a fundraising auction/raffle/dinner/drinking binge/band. It will more than likely be in Elkhart now since it is a good midway point from Goshen to South Bend. I am going to try to have it as close as possible to a hotel for all of us raging drunks. The details are as such. There will be a catered dinner with a per plate fee, probably 20 bucks or so, the dinner is getting catered at cost from Mike Maher a friend and jumper of the dz and the overage will go to the dz. After the dinner we will be auctioning off anything and everything. We have gotten lots of stuff from manufacturers and jumpers. A brand new stackable washer dryer, 50 percent off canopies, several 50 percent off containers, freefly helmets, 50 off jumpsuits, free jumpsuits, tons of stuff and it keeps coming in. Not only auctioning goods but services too, I am offering free reserve repacks for life, 24 hours of slave service, and whatever else I have to do, If I have to dance on tables I'll dance on tables. Anyone can auction themselves off for a date or whatever they want, or give us stuff to auction, whatever you can think up. After the auction I am having one of the areas kick ass bands to play to dance the night away. Don't worry, I am a skydiver and of course there will be booze. There will be a full bar with overpriced drinks with all overage going to the dz. It won't be a cheap evening so bring your pocketbooks but its guaranteed to be a hell of a lot of fun. I am sending a letter to every single person who has ever filled out a waiver with us inviting them so it should be pretty good. If you want send anything to auction or even a date with yourself email me directly for instructions. ward@indianaskydivingacademy.com Yes Wendy, this was supposed to be a surprise at first until I took them off their own mailing list. But hey I'm the webmaster and Bo doesnt know shit about computers so I thought I was safe. Oh well, they know about the event but thats about it, they dont know what all is involved really or what all is being auctioned and I still want the biggest part to be a surprise to them, as to just how much support they are getting so email me for instructions with anything you want to contribute. You can send money directly to paula@indianaskydivingacademy.com through paypal. Feel free to add yourself to the mailing list to get the soonest updates on the fundraiser. Thanks again to everyone, Val and Wendy, you rock!!!!!!

  6. It's me again, there is no way I can list everyone who has been helping on here but I am going to list only the people who have emailed me directly with goods, services or anything else. If you are not on here, it is only because I don't have your email address. Or because I am busy with all this now and I am a moron and just forgot. Anyway, below are some of the wonderful people who have helped in many ways. Please take the time to flood their email with thanks. There will be many more posts as I get them. Thanks again so much to everyone.

  7. Just a note of thanks to everyone who has contacted me, Bo or Paula with words of encouragement and or donations or monetary help. Paula has created a paypal account to help accept donations as I am sure that you read on the previous post. Bo and Paula are sometimes too proud for their own good and it was like pulling teeth to get them to set it up. I with the help of many, many others have begun organizing a fund raiser, auction, dinner, drinking binge tentatively scheduled for Saturday, March 6th. This was originally supposed to be a surprise to Bo and Paula because their stupid pride wouldn't have allowed me to do it, but........screw em. It's better to ask for forgiveness than for permission. We have had so much help from gear manufacturers and individuals and there will be so much great stuff to auction off with the proceeds going to keeping us afloat. There are far too many people to thank on this posting but everyone will definately be acknowledged at the event. So save the date on your calendar and save some money in your pocketbook. I will be sending a letter to everyone who has jumped at ISA explaining when, where, and what the event is. Everyone, including anyone who has not jumped with us is invited to come and eat, drink, bid, and drink, and drink, and drink. There is no obligation to give any time, money, goods, services or anything of the sort but we will appreciate the hell out of it if you do. Feel free to subscribe to our mailing list to keep up to date on the events of the dropzone including the fundraiser. Here is the link: http://www.indianaskydivingacademy.com/mailman/listinfo/isajumpers_indianaskydivingacademy.com Check the events link as well for updates, I will put a link to the paypal account on there if anyone is interested in that. Give me a day or so to get it all updated as it is a pretty busy time right now. www.indianaskydivingacademy.com is the web addy if you dont know yet. Anyone please feel free to contact me at ward@indianaskydivingacademy.com or call me direct at 812-459-1418 (unless you are a bill collecter) if you have any goods or services you would like to auction off at the event or if you would just like to say hi. Remember you don't have to have material goods to auction off. I am going to give a lifetime of reserve repacks by me, and I am also going to auction 24 hours of slave labor by me, just think getting to tell me what to do for a full day and there isn't anything I can do about it. (within limits Phil) You can auction yourself off for a date or anything your imagination can dream up so get those emails coming. Thanks again for all the support we couldn't survive without all the love and help from you all. Talk to you all soon. Ward
