For those of you in your 70's, please use this forum to

talk about everyday problems, financial matters, recommended healthy recipes,

things you enjoy doing, or whatever

you think would be good. It's like a well-wisher's meeting.

Why don't you tweet about it?

Please don't be sarcastic or cold-hearted.

Mr. Baikin

> I became addicted to skydiving when I entered university,

Skydiving in your generation, ! ! too amazing. It is a game that can only be played by those who are wealthy as well as courageous. You must be in the Yuzo Kayama class of youth.
I knew an old lady who put it on her bucket list and wrote in her blog that she had recently realized it, but I don't think I'd want to do it.

> I went up to San Jacinto Mtn. in Palm Springs by cable, but the ventilation was so thin that I got a headache and dizziness

Anyone can get altitude sickness if you go too high too fast. I climbed San Jacinto Mtn. a few years ago.

> There is a term among fellow pilgrims, "Oshikoku disease"

It is so fascinating that it is addictive. I've been climbing mountains exclusively, as the saying goes, "XXX and smoke like high places. I guess that's my health.

There is a Japanese hiking group, so if you are interested, please join. All you have to do is register your e-mail address and you will receive information about hiking. I camped and hiked in Yosemite this summer.

If you are interested, please e-mail me and I will register you. No obligation. yy19781978wata@gmail.com

I don't know about now, but most of the senior officers of the Self Defense Forces in Japan at that time were graduates of the National Defense Academy, but there was a unique person named Mr. Sasajima who was a graduate of Keio University and became a 3-sa (Major in the old days) of the Ground Self-Defense Force. He joined the U.S. Army and mastered guerrilla warfare techniques including parachute descent.

Skydiving was already a popular sport in the U.S. at that time, and when he was in the Narashino Airborne Corps in Chiba Prefecture, a diving club was formed by asking university students, who were probably graduates of famous private universities. When I saw the application for membership, I thought that even a novice like me could do it, and that my personality would change a little if I could pull off such a daring feat. As for the cost, the main expense was to charter a small Cessna as a club, and it was possible to collect about 1,000 yen plus from each member on the day of the flight. This was a lot of money in those days when a bowl of ramen was only 100 yen or so, but it was not often enough to make it a monthly event, so we were able to make it work.

291 You seem to be clinging here.
Why shouldn't I hang on to it?
It's Sunday every day, so I have plenty of time.

I think you misunderstand something.
If you hang on and write and get excited
advertisers think it's profitable to advertise.

If advertisers start running away like they do on Twitter,
charging membership fees to those who use it will have a more negative impact.
We need to greatly boost it so that it doesn't happen.
