  1. This story is sick. These SOB's had the balls to protest a fallen soldier at his funeral in front of his family and everybody. Just when I though people couldnt get any lower somthing like this happens. ***Story filed by NewsCenter16 Reporter Mark Peterson Elkhart, IN - A memorial service was held Friday for Marine Major Gerald Bloomfield. Major Bloomfield was a helicopter pilot who was shot down in Iraq on November 2. He is a native of Ypsilanti, Michigan who married Elkhart native and Concord High School graduate Julie Gill. Rick Hess, a family friend, says, “He met Julie down at a Purdue football game five or six years ago. They started dating and that brought him into our fold here in Elkhart.” Major Bloomfield will be buried next Wednesday in Arlington National Cemetery. He is a Purple Heart recipient and will be laid to rest with a 21-gun salute. Protestors Protestors picketed outside of the funeral home during the memorial service for Major Bloomfield. The same group has apparently done the same thing all across the nation. The extremist group feels anything bad that happens to the United States is because the country is tolerant of homosexuals. There were about seven people, both adults and children, who participated in the protest. The protestors were drastically outnumbered by Elkhart area veterans. The veterans showed up to help keep the protest in check. ”It was a wonderful turnout. I can’t believe all the veterans that showed up here on Veterans Day to commemorate Gerry. I think the mission was accomplished. Everyone was contained far enough away that none of the family that were inside had to be exposed to the insanity that they purported with their posters and protest,” said Hess. Elkhart veteran Dave Thornton says, “This is America, everybody is entitled to their opinion but to do it at a funeral, I'm sorry, is wrong.” There was one arrest at the protest. A veteran faces a battery charge, for bumping into a protestor. If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!

  6. Bought the camera jacket to film tandems and rw and I cannot be any more pleased that I am now. The wings are perfect and has a very wide range on them. I also got the freefly pants to go along with the jacket so I would not have to take the entire suit off and on all day. Just removing the jacket makes things so much easier. Very fast delivery on the entire setup. 18 days from order to doorstep. Very happy with the customer support.

  10. I settled for a kick ass ole fashioned meat loaf with mashed taters and some green beans. Simple yet very good. If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!
  11. From what I know Citation like you said has great history. Sometimes the odds just catch up and after a while something will go wrong. Just wish Cessna can drop the price of the Citation V to around $30, 000 so I could pick one up. If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!
  12. Was this the Citation I? I dont have any work experience on the citation but I do have to say the Citation X looks kick ass and from what I have read and heard it flies great. Hell at Mach .92 it better. Why is this? Because of so many AD's? Age and what not or are they just tight to get around in? If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!
  13. Couldnt agree more. Hope I never have the deligh of meeting this guy. If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!
  14. If I had tickets to the race I would be bragging about it to! I would be a little more forward about it though. If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!
  15. Exactly, and also helps lubricate along with mechanical fuel controls and stuff. My lead at work has some VW 2 door hatchback, turbo and stuff. Fast little car and get 30mpg and thats with his lead foot. I was impressed. If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!
  16. No kidding! Wonder why. Thays all. If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!
  17. Kick ass! Wonder what kind of fuel economy it gets. Might have to look into it when it comes time to buy a new car. If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!
  18. Of come on. Of all people you should know that fuel is also used to help lubricate the cylinders. It is not the primary form of lubrication but it helps and has lubrication property's. If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!
  19. I knew it was on my dads Caddy but that was for if it lost coolant it would shut cylinders down to help keep the engine cool. Hell of an idea though it you ask me. If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!
  20. Have never broke anything like that before so the only info I can give is time and rehab. When my bug busted his leg up he just did the physical therapy a lot and try to be patient with the results. It wont happen overnight. Keep your head up and stay positive even when you have setbacks which he did but just kept his nose to the grind stone and got through it. He is fine now but with the hardware in his leg he can tell me when it's about to rain about 6 hours before the weather man can. Funny how I can find the positive in things.

  21. I just saw a commercial for the new Chevy Impala and they said the Impala runs on 4 cylinders while at cruise and on all 8 when more power is needed. How exactly is this accomplished. I would have ot think that the injectors would have to stop fuel some how so as to not foul the plugs and wash the cylinders but at the same time fiel is also a form of lubrication so does anybody know how this works? Great idea I think but just wonder how it works. Guess thats why I'm not a design engineer. If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!
  22. Depends on what jet it was. There are a bunch of Citaions that hold anywhere from 4 up to more than 12. Interested on what happened here with this one. If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!
  23. Hey thanks for your help. I found what I was looking for and it is in the mail. I reallt appreciate all your help. If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!
  24. Cado in Hawaii gave me mine. I did some really stupid mistakes early in the sport but walked away from them and he used to say "That damn Rookie pulled another one out of his ass". So the name Rookie was given and has stuck with me. Not a bad name, it could be worse. If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!
  25. No way! I cant handle that. Do you want to watch me die or what? If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!
