Why did you jump?: Transformational Therapy
Why do you fly skydivers?: I really enjoy the
people at Skydive Fargo. It remains a nice place for me to
get away from the pace of life. Too, the proper throttle
advancement methodology of the Super-Cessna is spiritual;
spiritual health is a force multiplier for mission readiness
- journey to the stars... |

Why do you skydive?: Because I have no other
life My frog story:
I wasn’t always this way, although some people did call me a
toad behind my back. It was the morning after the glow stick
incident that I woke up looking like this. The webbed
appendages are great, no need for booties or batwings. But,
the green color gets old and the “Kiss me I’m really a
prince” just doesn’t work. The moral of the story is:
Never piss off manifest. Hop on a load with me sometime!
