Baloo Posted March 27, 2007 Report Posted March 27, 2007 Never been able to make kids myself Ant, delivered 22 to date though. Still makes me smile how proud you obviously are. Quote
John Barresi Posted March 28, 2007 Report Posted March 28, 2007 Baloo, 22?!?!?! Did it hurt at all? I imagine it gets easier after the first 10. Quote
Baloo Posted March 28, 2007 Report Posted March 28, 2007 You have to be a bit carefull in case the Mum to be gets hold of your hand and digs her nails in, otherwise nope, didnt hurt at all Quote
ant man Posted March 28, 2007 Author Report Posted March 28, 2007 baloo are you a doctor??? lol well ill tell you he wasnt an eazy child to make it was a lot of fun however Quote
Baloo Posted March 28, 2007 Report Posted March 28, 2007 Ex Police then did 16 years as a Paramedic. Got a disk problem from all the lifting so teach Land rover driving off road now. Quote
ant man Posted March 29, 2007 Author Report Posted March 29, 2007 man what a cool job im a truck driver for the nj IFPTE union i travel locally but it pays the bills Quote
Baloo Posted March 29, 2007 Report Posted March 29, 2007 All you got to do is keep paying those bills. And keep a kite in the air of course!! I am lucky in that most of the jobs I have ever done I enjoyed. Was a Night Club Manager for about 12 months. Worked in a couple of factories that I didnt enjoy so much though. Quote
Penny Lingenfelter Posted March 29, 2007 Report Posted March 29, 2007 That's one thing about being older we have more history. Balloo..? bump. buMP.. BuMp... your an off road driving teacher? with a bad disc? hmmmm does the disc keep you from doing much? You do buggy right? We just had a speech given by a surgon who shared some stories of what could go wrong in an operating room. He told some great stories. Generators don't always work and it's so black they couldn't see their hands in front of their face. At the end of this story a fireman rushes in with a great big bazzoka light holloring.. Doc, I brought you light! and the Surgon said he never knew there was a door outside of his operating room door that led to the outside, which he could see now because of the light coming from the outside into the room. All he thought about was, You brought me Germs! He told it very well. It was cute. Good contest. BB Penny Quote
Baloo Posted March 29, 2007 Report Posted March 29, 2007 Would love to try buggying, a bit scared it will cripple me. I have to be carefull what I do. Bending for some time or lifting is uncomfortable. You know when you are washing up you lean forward a bit, well that cripples me. So we have a washing up thingy. Another problem, my Wife was a Nurse and did her back in about 3 months B4 me. Sitting still is worst, like here in front of the computer. As long as I am moveing around, like nice slow gentle off roading is fine. I do have a 3.6 Peter Lynn Waterfoil that I use to scare myself, in fact last time I used it it scared me SOOOOO much I think I might sell it. Flew it to the top of the window for a "rest" it collapsed and dropped into 20mph wind, SNAPPED open and dragged me across the park in the mud. My Wife thought it was hilarious, a 16 stone balding fat man being draged across the park on his face. Now if it wasnt me THEN it would have been funny. It was funny really, still laughing about it now while I am typing this. Talk about doing a Superman impression. One second I was on my feet thinking "this is going to HURT" next moment I am being dragged along. We do do these silly things, I had no buisiness being out there with it. Would have been fantastic with a Rev, in fact I put the PL away and had fun with the Revs, wish I hadnt got the PL out at all. Just hadnt flown it in a while was all. So Penny, what do you recon, with age comes experience, I DONT THINK SO SOMEHOW!!!! Quote
wufer Posted March 29, 2007 Report Posted March 29, 2007 Penny. I go into hospital soon--- hope i dont meet THAT surgon thank you very much.!!!!!!!! Derek Quote

I enjoyed your pics as well. Your kiddo is adorable. I flew my first kites on Wildwood's beaches as a kid. I probably was in your shop at some point. When I was down for the Festival this past May I went and visited my old stomping grounds before heading to the fest. It was such a time warp. My memories of Wildwood are very fond. Quote
