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.

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

That sudden stop at the bottom sucks.

the soda next to it. I land on my tailbone and sprain my mid-back. I
get a fun ambulance ride to the local emergency room over cobblestone
streets and then get pumped full of narcotics and muscle relaxers.

Dude, I thought I was the only one who did that. Last fishing trip to
Canada (more to follow when I get pics) I got the award for most frequent
and most entertaining dives into the water. The natives there call me
"dances with fish" now.

Good story, sorry bout the pain.

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

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.
