A brush with the old Grim on Sunday

[gavak]

Wind turbulence from the runway transformed a run of the mill 180 canopy turn into a twisted mess that put me into a flat spin. I finally managed to kick out of it by 800ft

Dammit, you be careful.

Yes Sir Drew -- I have to be around for ME3 after all, right?

I would have cried.

I tend to be a calm person, so the adreniline rush had me in a state of shellshock for an hour.

My hands kept shaking.

My skydiving friends told me that I shouldn't go home -- That I should sit for a spell, then go up and do a hop-and-pop.

They were right.
