    Sorry to say but you know the saying, "If you dont secceed once try again?" What about people who like me might not have another chance of flying afterwards??

    That's why you HAVE to do it the first time!


    We have to find a way to get Zippy some wings!!!

    BWs are just chix wings marinated in a mild or spicy/hot sauce and cooked. It's like eating ribs....messy and fun when you try to grab your drink. They were created in Buffalo, NY..

    You HAVE to try them with all the sides-
    (Kfamr is a wing snob!!!!) then make up your mind....

    I went to sleep last night thinking about that flight, and woke up this morning still excited about it..

    Ramanth-
    a heartbeat is way too long to wait!!!!

    let's GO......NOW!!!!!!!!!!!

    i want to fly!

    Gimme a few more of those red slushy things and I'll give it a go.......
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!

    Richard,

    Hypothetically speaking of course, but would you be willing to
    do a sky dive from a reasonable highth , if someone did actually
    challenge you ? Sort of make a deal to jump at the same time?

    No wings involved, just good parachutes.....

    as my dad would say, 'no question about it!!'

    all me friends have their feet firmly rooted on the ground......
    so finding some one to go with has been difficult.

    the world record is something like 120,000 feet.....

    my state or yours????

    you bet!



    just as i finished typing my earlier post i saw that Rita Crosby, the FOX news anchorperson, was able to do a tandem (hooked on to another person) jump with the US Army parachute team, the Golden Knights!

    I hate her!!!

    and i made a mistake- the record for a hi altitude jump is 102,800
    feet-around 20 miles up.......as i was looking for that info i came across a woman who plans to jump from 130,000 feet (around 25 miles up)......as i read her bio it stated all her vital statistics..

    age, martial status and such........when it listed her children it said......one dog, and eleven cats.........

    11 cats??? that's daring!

    Buffalo wings for me! I had a friend in high school that died skydiving. Not only that, I hate heights! lol
    Love Ranch dressing, but not on the wings themselves. Dip the celery.


    Don't buy while shelter dogs die!!

    Richard,

    Yes, finding someone to go with has been my problem as well.
    I had one friend who agreed to go, thought it would be great,
    etc., than backed down when it came time to make concrete
    plans to actually sign up for the jump. I'd like to do the jump in
    California if that's o.k. Best time for me would be this fall (Oct.?)
    I would only do a tandem jump, as I have no clue what is really
    involved, lessons wise. Found this place to check out times &
    jump centers in Ca. http://www.skydiving.com/ I want to visit
    my son in Ca. this fall & will be in the San jose area. What'cha
    think?

    p.s. I figure I need time to make a will & relatives around to pick
    up the body if it's not a good experience.
