Mr. 2,
This Friday sounds fine! I'll be in downtown Chicago all weekend. I was hoping
a group of Naxonians could meet for a dinner get together Friday night. Anyone
interested in getting together either email me, The PJ@aol.com, or private
message me here on SI for details on where and when. Come one come all!

P.S. I saw the movie, Air Force One, for the first time yesterday. If anyone else
has seen it remember those guys sailing between airplanes on ropes? Those guys
were not stunt men, no stunt man in the world is qualified to do what they do.
They were not even actors. Just like in the James Bond movie Thunderball, where
the parachutists that jumped from an airplane with scuba gear into the water
were not actors but real Pararescue Jumpers, PJs. It was good to see my old
outfit in action with some new tricks even if it was only in a movie. I do know
one thing, though. If I had the chance, you couldn't keep me out of a harness and
on that ramp! I would want to be the guy on the line being reeled out to snag
another airplane in mid air, no doubt about it!
Perhaps, now, it's easier to understand why I consider Naxos not to be much of
a real risk! :-) |
