  1. What get's me is I bet Bill really looks after his engine. As a fairly low time pilot I do everything I can to baby that single engine but realize it can die....... Kevin Keenan is my hero, a double FUP, he does so much with so little
  2. Jeez, I bet Booth maintains the hell out of that plane to..........glad he pulled it off. Kevin Keenan is my hero, a double FUP, he does so much with so little
  3. Tell what I think.... I think the PRESS is in the full T.M. retrbution mode to STIR things up. 1. I bet a careful search would show that during the T.M. trail there were just as many of the black on white crimes going on. 2. The news outlets know this will get things going....thats it. I think this is just another we that we the people are getting screwed by the press. Kevin Keenan is my hero, a double FUP, he does so much with so little
  4. Ok can anyone who is a big on Obama care really explain all the companies that get to opt out? My company won't get to. To me there just should be an opt out ability. Anyone? Kevin Keenan is my hero, a double FUP, he does so much with so little
  5. Yeah come on - you all know that he is just looking for attention. He can't have any good qualities, the press told us so. Kevin Keenan is my hero, a double FUP, he does so much with so little
  6. Why is it than when a black person kills someone, a common response is that his enviroment being raised, his lack of economic ability due to poor education is brought up as a justified reason for why it really wasn't his fault. If a white person says I'm scared of people that come from the lower economic scale, live in poor area's and commit a large percentage of crime - they are a racist? The fact bare out that you should be careful. If I lion was in your area and hungry would you be scared, of course. Would you be a racist for fearing the lion? Of course not. Locking your doors (Mr. President) is a good idea when a precived threat is in the area (actually all the time) If that hurts the persons feelings than perhaps working to lower the legitmate numbers and facts that make people want to stay safe would be a good use of time.

  7. Bill before I tangle with the master....DID you listen to the part of the trial that dealt with this? If you did do you still believe that in the real sense of the word that he assaulted a police office. Or have you simply quoted the left view, in the manner of the press to try and validate your view? Kevin Keenan is my hero, a double FUP, he does so much with so little
  8. Relax I wasn't reponding to you. But if you took it that I hoped that I would ever be in that situation, your wrong. I pray that Im not ever put in that place. Kevin Keenan is my hero, a double FUP, he does so much with so little
  9. I love reading this stuff, it's like a soap opera: "I just believe that ______ started the fight" There's no proof of who threw the first punch. Period. Personally I'm old. I don't heal fast. Someone upstream mention they had been mugged by three people and while unpleasant they weren't in fear for there life. If I am getting mugged and I can get my hands on something - anything - to bash the offenders head in - I'm going to. If I have a gun, I'll do my best to shot them. The idea that some of the people here have a firm few on how scared for his life he SHOULD have been is insane. Perhaps you tough guys (gals) would NEVER kill someone who was beating the hell out of you. I wouldn't start it - but I would without doubt kill someone who was on top of me, beating me, if I could. Of course your mileage may vary........ Kevin Keenan is my hero, a double FUP, he does so much with so little
  10. Scott and I will be breaking the belly flyers into two groups. If your a low timer this will be a great chance to come out and jump and get pointers in a controlled group. If your a high timer we will challange you with some hard jumps. Ought to be a good time, cya soon Fortson Kevin Keenan is my hero, a double FUP, he does so much with so little
  11. Yep you lost me in the first 30 seconds when they used the same fucked up picture of TM. I'm sure it makes you feel like your argument is sound....but to me it just shows how sucked in people have become. WHY in the fuck would they STILL be using that picture if not to BS you man??? Better yet WHY would you still listen to anyone that uses that picture?? Kevin Keenan is my hero, a double FUP, he does so much with so little
  12. Don neither was GZ. As far as GZ "deciding he was up to no good" thats not illegal either. Here on DZ and around the country the verdict didn't seem to do anything. The people spoke. Does it clear GZ? Only if you were a GZ supporter...... What drives me nuts is the manner that the press played this. GZ - white. TM - cute little 12 yr and we the people just ate it up. Another point for my DZ friends. At one time all this was this should go to trail. (Where's Kallend?) it went to trail and GZ was found not guilty. The entire thing is just gin up to sell press.

  13. A lot of people do both groups. The number of people that can afford big ways in money and time off is limited. Kevin Keenan is my hero, a double FUP, he does so much with so little
  14. Do you really believe that in any manner the president needs to comment? Seriously? I would feel the same if it was Bush...or any other president. The power of the office, the shear influence. Now add that at the time TM was being portrayed as a choir boy, very young pictures..... I'll stand by my comment, I would not want to have the president involved AT ALL in the court of public opinion if my liberty was on the line.

  15. +1 It seems to me that a few people here basically have the mind set that someone died therefore it has to be the shooters fault. At the begainning I was totally sure that GZ should go on trail, I now am very comfortable that he is on trail BUT I am FAR from comfortable that he is guilty. One thing that concerns me - a lot. Imagine if you were on trail for something like this and the PRESIDENT made a comment related to it. Or the threat of civil unrest hanging over the verdict. Would you feel at all sure that the jury would be fair? Straight up I WOULDN'T. Be interesting to see what happens if he is found not guilty. Will the president comment on the fairness of the jury system? Kevin Keenan is my hero, a double FUP, he does so much with so little
  16. It's just as plausible: GZ is on his way back to his car and TM shows up and sucker punches GZ get's on top of him and beats the hell out of him, getting shot for it. MY POINT is unless new evidance comes out, EITHER could have happen. The first version is if you just don't believe GZ story. The second wb that you just don't believe TM supporters side. The truth most likely lay in the middle. I find the passion here funny. So many people so sure of there position..... not enough evidence that we have to form an reasonable decision. Other than TM is dead so therefore SOMEONE should get in trouble. Kevin Keenan is my hero, a double FUP, he does so much with so little
  17. No, that was the saving by dropping the insurance... I wasn't looking for sympathy, you seem to WANT to make it out that I am only upset about the $5.00. That's just foolishness. READ this slowly. I am upset that I have to pay the $5.00 and the $168.00 fee's when I provide the insurance BUT I am under the 50 person limite for being forced to provide insurance. I'm glad that you are happy to pay for things in your taxes that you don't agree with. You don't have ANY IDEA (Look "caps") how much sleep I will lose over your feeling that I am overreacting a bit Peace and so long.

  18. Thanks Dave, I will look into this, my accountant told me I didn't qualitfy. I have more than 23 employees BUT some don't take the insurance because they have better insurance provided by there spouse. I used the number (23) that I provide for my example. Maybe that is the reason? Kevin Keenan is my hero, a double FUP, he does so much with so little
  19. HUH??? So your saying that I should take this cost to the employees?? Re-read what I wrote. WHY have a company that is smaller than 50 employees PAY this????? The fact that I chose to provide it isn't a reason to charge me!!! I put this to the employees that I would give everyone in the company a raise equal to the amount of the insurance I pay for now - what would they think of that idea. NOT ONE wanted that. Why because the cost of insurance is going up and they don't trust Obama care............... I'm glad that you purchase your on insurance (or pay for part of it) good idea. FWIW I speak personally to my legislators and write letters. Listen we don't know one another, you may be Warren Buffet.... but when other companies opt to pay the $2,000 fine LOWERING there operating cost by - in my case - $2,200 x 25 = $55,000 that adds up to an advantage to them. I understand the "keep good employees" part of this but again I don't have 50 employees. Why make me pay the "as you put it" $5.00...... It's a pile of shit.

  20. From “The Kiplinger Letter” “Firms offering insurance must pay and annual fee of $1 for each of the average number of people covered in 2012. That fee end in 2018. (and goes up) The money will be fund grants for research into the effectiveness of medical treatment. A $63.00 per person fee starting in 2014 on all firms that offer insurance. The Feds will send that money to the states which will funnel it to insurers to help buffer the impact on insurance premiums from covering individuals who wind up with high medical claims.” Fact: I provide 100% paid insurance for my employees. We have since the 1970’s Fact: The above will cost me over $1,473.00 a year. Fact: I have LESS than 50 employees so I am not subject to the $2,000 fine if I don’t provide health care. Why in the HELL would you charge a firm with under 50 employees the above who IS providing the employees’ health care??????? If I stop I save the $1,473.00. The above are more of the details we had to pass the bill to see what was in it. BTW the “tax credit” I was supposed to get because I offered company paid health insurance – remember that? Well that credit was only for companies SMALLER than mine. What a bunch of BS. I'm being forced to NOT provide insurance. In the end I will make sure my employees are taken care of but this is a cluster fuck Kevin Keenan is my hero, a double FUP, he does so much with so little

The newspaper said that the exceptionally high level of taxation was due to a one-off levy last year on 2011 incomes for households with assets of more than 1.3 million euros ($1.67 million). President Francois Hollande's Socialist government imposed the tax surcharge last year, shortly after taking office, to offset the impact of a rebate scheme created by its conservative predecessor to cap an individual's overall taxation at 50 percent of income. The government has been forced to redraft a proposed bill to levy a temporary 75 percent tax on earnings over 1 million euros, which had been one of Hollande's campaign pledges. The Constitutional Council has judged such a high rate of taxation to be unfair, leaving the government to rehash it to hit companies rather than individuals. Since then, a top administrative court has determined that a marginal tax rate higher than 66.66 percent on a single household risked being considered as confiscatory by the council. Les Echos reported that nearly 12,000 households paid taxes last year worth more than 75 percent of their 2011 revenues due to the exceptional levy.

  22. 100% tax on people with assets of 1.67 million to make up the previous government max tax rate of 50% for one year. Question - will we see any change of work/spending actions of these effected by the 100% tax. Question - does anyone know if the 1.67 million in assets counts things such as paid for houses, none cash type "assets" Kevin Keenan is my hero, a double FUP, he does so much with so little
  23. +1 When you totally accept that 99% of Kallend post are designed around the fact that he perfers to stick it to the right you can enjoy watching what he stirs up. Kallend could do the same to the left, but he leans left but not by as much as you would think. He is a master. Kevin Keenan is my hero, a double FUP, he does so much with so little

  25. All I can say is that P3 has the best marketing in skydiving. Dropping the 333, going after the sequential - at the 100 way size to start will motivate people to come. Lowering the cost was important, be interesting to see how much it's lowered. Personally I think the 333 was going to be a hard push. With the big way world split.
