Nail buffing, yeah, do that at night.
When I was young and dumb, I would hurl myself off perfectly good rock into water. Sometimes very small bodies of water. Only place-name I can remember is Devils Punchbowl in San Diego county somewhere. Measured 50 foot jumps into a puddle with spotters. Never dove though, too scary.

That's right near the Three Sisters Waterfalls in Julian. I preferred Sunset Cliffs (a lot easier to get to), but never thought to meaure it. Not 50 I would say.
Why is toe-nailing an approved procedure, whilst back-biting is not?
A guy did it in his car not too long ago.

Did you know...today, the 19th of April, falls on the same day of the week as it did last year?
And do you remember this front page from one year ago?
It was at 1:59 p.m. when I took this photo.
It was the work of great minds and calls for something special.
This one's better than the pick I made last year.[Click to View YouTube Video]

Huh... For a minute I thought they were platform diving, like they do in the Olympics. I must be mistaken.

I dove for Red Bull in 2005 for their first Cliff diving comp. Man the sport sure has changed. They have more of a budget and the diving is definitely a step up from before. I know a lot of the divers still. Personally, I'm glad I did it but realize that I enjoy climbing up the cliffs much more than the 2.5 seconds to get down.

Ha! See? What happens to a smoked-out diver?
If he missed the date, he might well miss the water!
Then he'd be, like, the Watermelon Man...
Ouch!

Not perfectly straight and toes weren’t pointed but pretty darn gud!
9.5 might be generous but it wasn’t the Olympics, or wazzit?
