Thanks Donna in TEXAS for droppin in on my journal. I'm kinda new to j-land but i enjoy it tremendously. I too will add you to my alert list. I also agree with you on the skydiving. After Tim McGraw's song i really wanted to check it out, however, all the excitement wore off and reality kicked in again after hearing about another skydiving accident before todays. catch you laterz girlfriend~kbear
Here's reason 1002: Many insurance policies won't cover any injuries you suffer from skydiving or bungie-jumping. My company has spelled that out to me, and I've never been tempted to risk it. Russ in KC
my foolish days are long over!!! I value my life too much to do something stupid!
becky
1) I'm petrified of heights. There isn't a way in this world you would get me up there and expect me to jump out. Not even if my butt was on fire!! lol
2) Way too dangerous! Okay, so lets say I suddenly find the courage to do such an insane thing as jump out of a plane -- how many times have parachutes failed to open? or the participant lands wrong and breaks a leg or worse? or how about your example of hitting a wing, losing his legs, and dying?
3) I gotta pass. Sorry. I just don't need that kind of thrill in my life.
Great entry!!!! Thanks for your visits to my J, the comments and well wishes, I do appreciate it a great deal! (((hugs)))
I LOVE the picture in your About Me section! Just wonderful!!
Ooh, poor guy!
If you're chicken, I'm chicken too. No way on this earth I'm ever throwing myself out of a plane!!
