The Lunatic Fringe Book is a collection of all 10 years of monthly articles written for Blue Skies magazine by Dean Ricci, a.k.a. The F***in' Pilot. Blue Skies magazine was the rebel publication. It was the new start-up that went out of its way to try to challenge people, entertain them, piss them off, make them think, keep them safer, and more than anything, embrace the amazing lifestyle that skydiving can offer to those who join its ranks. It talked about events and subjects that were borderline taboo not in the sport and the industry and in the culture.

Fear. It’s in each and every one of us. An inevitable component in all of our lives, like it or not. For some, it’s an almost imperceptible whisper in the back of our mind that gives us little more than a slightly uncomfortable nudge now and then. For others, it’s a virtually uncontrollable and debilitating sense of doom that grows stronger with each and every heartbeat. For most, it stays balanced somewhere in between the extremes.

Grief. I’ve never battled with the raw, debilitating pain that comes with it. Then a twist of fate hits me out of nowhere, and I can barely keep from drowning. It’s like weights tied to my ankles in the middle of a raging ocean. I’m helpless, with no way to swim back to the surface. But fate is crueler still, bringing my stepbrother back for the first time in years.
