  1. I suppose you're right. However, you should be aware that the Senate Intelligence Committe is split almost 50/50, Republican and Democrat. It's not as though it was a collection of Bush's best friends that wrote the report. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  2. Yup yup - you can read all about it here. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  3. Probably because it's not exactly a newsworthy event. I can see the headline now "Pentagon tries to salvage old microfilm records" - No, wait. I can't. Because it's likely that noone cared until they went searching for GWB's payroll. As far as the conspiracy goes - if you go looking for it, you'll likely find it, even when it isn't there. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  4. From another, similar, article: - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  5. Straight from Kris's keyboard: The Patriot Act has nothing to do with her inability to get a driver's license. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  6. Whoa there, down boy! - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  7. I think it will make you popular with the boys. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  8. Hiding behind 'very little'? Quade, I expected better from you. Sorry for mixing up the replies, but . . . And benefiting from the TSA, too. Right? Wasn't it the TSA that found Richard Reid (the shoe bomber)? How many people who didn't fly benefited from that find? I'm thinking everyone underneath the intended detonation point, the families of those onboard, I'm sure there are more. Also, and I think that you know this - the TSA is responsible for more than just airlines. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  9. I do? I didn't know that, but thanks for the revelation. Ineffectively, or at least with ineffective inter-organization communication. Would you agree? I think that one of the things that the DHS hopes to do (and maybe now does) is provide a clearing house for all of the other agencies communications and information. With all of that data at their disposal they should certainly be better positioned to analyze threat data than the previous model. Correct? Either way, I'm still waiting for the proof that they've done nothing to make us safer. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  10. How do you know that? Where is your proof? I've said it before, the DHS is in an impossible position. If we're never attacked they're seen as unnecessary. If we are attacked they're seen as ineffective. I don't envy these people at all, not one little bit. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  11. Yup. Just got mine last week. I've got a lot of reading to do, but so far it's pretty good. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  12. A canopy that doesn't have everything it's supposed to sounds to me like a canopy that's not ready. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  13. Jimbo

    Better hair?

    Noooooo! Say it isn't so! - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  14. Nor do I. However, the 'health problems' exuse would be reasonable, I think. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  15. Agreed. Though, if given the option, I would take the opportunity to lower my dues and go without Parachutist. Skydiving, in my opinion, is a much better magazine. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  16. Question: If that were to happen, would it be the first time that an incumbant ditched his VP in favor of someone else? - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  17. Screw that. Last time I had a problem with Icarus I fired off an email to Simon and had the problem fixed the same day. simon at icaruscanopies dot com Usually gets results, and quickly. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  18. Marketing may say that it does, my experience says that it doesn't. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  19. While people sit comfortably in their homes or places of work and continue to bash the President for not jumping up and racing out of the room, I am forced to wonder - what is the protocol the President must follow in a situation such as this? I'm sure that the Secret Service has rules for occasions such as this. Anyone know what they are? For those who bent on the bashing, would you change your tune if you knew that the President followed the protocol to the letter? - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  20. And you think that maybe they should be? Preferring one race over another, what's that called? - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  21. From the actions speak louder than words camp, I don't think that's very effective. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  22. Technically, I suppose that it is. But realistically, if you want to work in a union town it's not. You know that. When it's a choice between work and no work . . . - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  23. Now that's what I call old-school! I haven't heard the term sys-op thrown around in years! - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  24. I did? Please, show me where I acknowledged anything. A quote would be nice, I need to make sure that I don't do it again. I am aware, Professor, that Bush made the 45 minutes comment. I am calling on you to provide the proof that it was a lie. You said that the proof was ample, so I suspect that it will be easy for you to present. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
  25. No, you'd have a difficult time shooting your gun. - Jim "Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.
