My home is under water and my DZ is closed due to that bitch Katrina...but I did jump last weekend at Skydive Houston when I took a friend on a tandem...he bought me a jump b/c he felt bad for me. -Tammy, Pink Mafia Sister #190 Pink Mafia Tunnel Sister #20

Hey All, Thank you to everyone for their thoughts and prayers...and to Laurel for the updates...and Daniel for letting you all know that my family and I are safe. I am in Houston right now at a friends house and wishing I had my own rig to go make a jump but I really should not be thinking about that right now... Anyway, my family rented an apt. in college station and that is where we will be residing till we can return to LA and rebuild our home which still has water in it... I will be flying to TN to get my car in order to go check on my sisters who are in different states at the moment and then return to TX. Thanks again everyone I can't wait to see you all and give you all great big hugs -Tammy, Pink Mafia Sister #190 Pink Mafia Tunnel Sister #20

I am scared, but my family has gone through a lot this past week and my father who is 70 (but not helpless) did not want to go for a variety of reasons: 1. The funeral of my niece is Tue 2. The restaurant my family owns is under contract with the Entergy company to provide food to their workers and to the fire and police departments and emergency workers around the parish I live in... My dad and I are prepared with lifejackets, water, food, and we have a plan if it floods so we are going to do our best. Right now it is not that bad but I know it is going to get bad. I just could not leave my father and other stubborn sicilian family members. My prayers are with everyone in the area... -Tammy, Pink Mafia Sister #190 Pink Mafia Tunnel Sister #20

Tattoo & Piercing Care...All you will ever need to know!
GratefulDreamer replied to Paige's topic in The Bonfire
This is a really long ass thread and I'm not sure if anyone mentioned it but Provon soap is the best! It is a handsoap for hospitals, but that means it is very gentle and won't dry the skin out and it is also an antimicrobial. I also swear by sea salt and warm water for any new piercing. It has worked well on my nipple rings (twice in each nipple) My 4g dermal punches in the top cartilage orbitals in both lobes and both of my tragus None of them were bad at all -Tammy, Pink Mafia Sister #190 Pink Mafia Tunnel Sister #20 -
So last weekend I did my first 15 minutes of Tunnel Time at AAC. It is an awesome tunnel with great people! I have 56 jumps and it was so hard for me in the tunnel. I am going back tomorrow with my frustration turned into determination because I really want to learn and progress in my skills. I was really stiff and I guess I was just nervous, but in freefall I have this mad arch. I have come to the conclusion that it is mind over matter and I need to relax just as I would in the sky and not worry about hitting the net, also I need to realize that I have a much smaller flying space than the huge ass sky. I have been practicing on my bed just a basic arch, forward and backward movement and moving side to side just to get the muscle memory down. Anyone got any similar stories and advice? -Tammy, Pink Mafia Sister #190 Pink Mafia Tunnel Sister #20

Thanks everyone all of your information was very helpful! I have decided to go with the Mindwarp and I can't wait for my bonebond to mature next month. I'm going to be looking so cool in my new bonehead...no more pro-tec for me.... I totally have to change that pic -Tammy, Pink Mafia Sister #190 Pink Mafia Tunnel Sister #20

I know that there are threads about this topic already, but things have changed a little bit... Both the Guner and the Mindwarp now cost $195.00 and from what I have seen on the website pictures the Guner no longer has a seat belt type clasp but one like a mindwarp... So taking into account all this new info give me some opinions on how they compare because I have only tried on a mindwarp and I am very curious as to how a Guner fits and looks. Thanks everyone I really appreciate it!

I have wanted them for a long time now, but still thinking about if I want the hassle of keeping up with and all that good stuff...thank you all for the input it has really helped... I am going to try and find a stylist around the little town of knoxville that knows what the hell they are doing in order to talk to them about the upkeep, pros, cons... -Tammy, Pink Mafia Sister #190 Pink Mafia Tunnel Sister #20

Wow, I didn't know you could "get them". Thought you had to grow them or something... Alright...I am thinking about getting them professionally done or getting a friend to dread them for me... -Tammy, Pink Mafia Sister #190 Pink Mafia Tunnel Sister #20

I am thinking about getting them, and I am wondering if they are a pain with helmets and such... Also if you have them where did you go or was it an at home project? Any tips would be great Thanks everyone! -Tammy, Pink Mafia Sister #190 Pink Mafia Tunnel Sister #20

Ok Mr. SmartyPants 4.0...we all can't be as ambitious and on the ball as you -Tammy, Pink Mafia Sister #190 Pink Mafia Tunnel Sister #20

Thank You for the congrats and the empathy concerning the professors some of them were absolutely outrageous and it makes me angry that I wasted my time and money and did not learn a damn thing -Tammy, Pink Mafia Sister #190 Pink Mafia Tunnel Sister #20

My First Year of College!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! No more all nighters for a few months, no asshole vague rambling professors, no more 15-18 page term papers, no not jumping because I have 2 tests on monday, no more spending money on books instead of jumptickets, no more fratboys screaming in the quad at 4 a.m, no more nasty putrid cafeteria food, no more messy roommate who leaves her dirty underwear by the sink... I did have a good experience this past year and wasn't all bad except a few choice things that just pissed me off, but now it is all over and I can make it better next year! Thanks for listening to me rant -Tammy, Pink Mafia Sister #190 Pink Mafia Tunnel Sister #20

I have "dreamer" on the inside of my lip and surprisingly it did not hurt at all... I live in New Orleans and only one shop in the entire city would do it. When I called and asked them they started laughing their asses off saying sure they would do it but they had only done it to each other for shits and giggles before. People freak out whenever I show them and it heals in like 5 days... -Tammy, Pink Mafia Sister #190 Pink Mafia Tunnel Sister #20

This past Thanksgiving I got into a car accident outside of Birmingham Al. in BFE somewhere...well my foot was sliced open and I had to go to the hospital for stitches. My doctor points at my closing pin necklace and is like "you're a skydiver, I am too". It was awesome he told me about his base jumping and showed me pics and all that good stuff while he sewed up my foot. Its great to have friends everywhere... -Tammy, Pink Mafia Sister #190 Pink Mafia Tunnel Sister #20
