RE: Skydiving
New Jersey was my first time. Got pulled over by a state trooper for speeding on the way back. Told him what I'd just done and that my adrenaline was off the charts. He told me it was on his bucket list, we BSed about it for a bit and he didn't give me a ticket.

RE: Skydiving
I have got a handful of jumps but have not been in more than 15 years. It was cheap when I did it in AZ but now they have it organized and it cost a lot more to keep up. Want to do it again when the funds allow it.

I was just the opposite ~ in shock and catatonic for about four days.

The Squirtiger I ordered must have gotten lost in the mail. Can you please FedEx me one again?

They picked us up in a limo in Vegas and took us to the jumpsite. As I said, I was severely hung over, but jumped anyway. I yacked when I hit the ground. From there, they put us back in the limo that was now full of bottles of PBR. My friends and I chugged a PBR out of celebration, and I immediately yacked again. Luckily, the limo had yack bags inside.
Word of Caution - Don't try skydiving hung over!

RE: Skydiving
I had no idea it is a custom to bring beer to your tandem master on your first jump.
