Tim, meet Mr. Reid.....he is legendary!

The natives there call me
"dances with fish" now.


Penn's Creek, for you, in 2004!! The natives will call you something

similar,
no doubt.
There is stiff competition for the awards at this particular diving meet,

I
might warn you.
Tom


Sure, warn *this* guy. Whatever happened to lulling the unknowing into
watery infamy?

Sorry. Not a full Reid. Considering that in water, it would have
been (though not elegantly executed) a full Reid, we can award you up
to 7 points of a total of 8; though I'd stop at 6, myself.

Now, you're the bouncer, I chair the rules committee, apparently. Don't
forget that beer was involved, yet beer, in and of itself, was not
responsible for this manouver. This injects just the right amount of irony
to put this in the "Full Reid" column.

With that said, while this is a Full Reid, it is not deserving of any
awards in the category. This isn't your best work, Frank.

Feel better

Very few people are aware of the instant "out of body" feeling one gets
when one catches unintentional air.

Have you experienced this?


Uh, like when everything slows down as you find yourself falling off a
cliff and you notice that if you kick against the cliff that you just
might miss the rocks at the bottom and land in the water while at the
same time noticing the small trees growing out of the cliff and thinking
that they have been naturally bonsai'd and wondering if you could
collect one and take it home but you really don't have the time and you
look down and check that all the pockets of your vest are zipped before
you hit the water in a modified belly flop. That feeling? No, never
had it. ;-)


You spend entirely too much time airborne.

I know this is after the fact, but if you wade in to your neck, the chances are
pretty good that your waders will fill with water.

Funny, but I actually didn't get any seepage during that process....it was
the Reid before that that earned me the prize...

However I do commend you on another humor laden reminder of your

propensity
for finding some manner to cheat death. And I assume you have

installed
"handicap" rails in your shower/tub? Otherwise you are going to kill
yourself one day.


I tried to install them on my wife, but she got a bit upset.


Can I scratch this last reply or blame it on the drugs? She sees it and
no amount of therapy will help (we're talking the "Final Reid" here).
Frank


Sure, but the reply above will always remain as testament to the reply above
that. In fact, this reply will remain in testament to that reply, which
remains.....

While Mr. Frank Ried get the Lifetime Achievement Award for Full Rieds the only
thing in common with the original full Ried is beer although the beer may have
had something to do with the Stadium Ried he was not partaking as in Uncle
Wallys Dry Ried ( there was blood here) or Waynes Indicator Ried (chasing a 2
cent piece of foam costing him hundreds of $) Or Jeff Millers Full Frontal Reid
(his intro to Penns i might add) or Tim Carters Walking Off The Edge Neck Deep
Ried (causing brain fart so he gets out and then just decided to walk accrost
in neck deep water) and then there is the Natty Bumpo Deep Submergence Ried
(loss of equipment to include his hat and brain cells haven't heard from him
since) and then there is the Dave Pa superman Ried (arms straight out in front
all under except his face) i personaly witnessed that one........So i am
thinking that there should be different catorgories of Rieds such as Sporting
Avent Rieds.... Cabin Wall Rieds..... Brain Fart Rieds.....Super Hero
Rieds.....The Equipment Loss Rieds.....Introduction Reids.....and lets not
forget the plain ole I Slipped And Fell on My Ass In The Water Ried.....Thats
all i have to say on the subject !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

On the contrary, while he's airborne everything if fine. It's when he
stops being airborne that the problems arise.
