The Rules: #1 DON'T DIE! #2 No matter how hard you try, you cannot fit the planet up your ass. #3 Keep the bones on the inside. Oh, yeah. "Q:Why don't blind people skydive? A:It scares the shit out the dog!" and "Q:How do blind skydivers know when to pull? A:When the leash goes slack." Thanks Dennis. "Go big or go home." Ok, I think that's all I can come up with.
