[TowerTalk] walking again

[Bob Gates]

Hi Joey,

Well, I think we're finally getting to the root cause of your near disaster. 
The tower wasn't the only thing rusty.  You apparently jumped out of a 
perfectly good airplane way too many times.  Enough so that you began to 
believe the propaganda that you really can fly.  Then you hooked yourself up 
in a harness, thinking of another kind, and got so carried away you forgot 
what PLF stands for.  And to make matters worse, you forgot the cardinal 
rule to release your equipment bag, in this case the tower, so you don't 
land on top of it and turn into a soprano.  But, in this case, "ain't gonna 
jump no more" has a different meaning.  Please don't tell me you were 
wearing your jump boots.  "All the way" big fella!

73, Bob W7BJ
