When someone told me to look up Laughingsquid.com about the Kite Fights this weekend May 3rd or 4th? But did not see anything posted, What's up for this weekend with you folks? P.S. Aside from the people learning to Sailboard with their 1.2 Flex Foil Trainers, and a few single line family flyers, Trying to use Crissy Feild, between the Soccer Moms and Dads, and the diverse Collegeate footballers that are always on the feild. I have not the pleasure of seeing any of you Pro Flyers out here showing off to "Us Sissies" ? (<Them's Fightin Words!) I would like to think that all if not most of us FlyFolks are relatively Upward and Freindly as the term may be used loosely. What say you? I Ain't No Sissy Dad Gummit! Dear Sirs,
