  1. Peter, it is not like you cannot afford a plane ticket or two. If she is not married or attached permanently if you showed up she would feel like a fairy tale princess or at least you would know that it would not work. Man up. So what the hell are you going to do about it?
  2. It probably would have been different if she was honest with you. I don't think you are the kind of guy that would cut and run.
  3. That makes us all realize how safe a plane the OV-10 Bronco was and also how dangerous it was to fly one given its mission role. I always wanted one.
  4. He is going domestic I think... Cheap bastard!
  5. BTW my BIL said you really needed that pod on the Raven or Aardvark. As he put it, you could be tooling along just having a nice flight, 30k AGL and then you are on the burners giving every bit it has with the throttle pushed hard. The next thing you know you are dodging trees and power lines. That plane caused him a sore back more than once. The terrain following radar mode was quite aggressive.
  6. ZERO/ZERO seats are quite common these days. But probably not on that type
  7. Magical electric, great for the environment, produced without any input. The Easter bunny will come to you house and drop off an electric car for you too.
  8. Bin Laden, Most Wanted For Embassy Bombings? By Dan Eggen Washington Post Staff Writer Monday, August 28, 2006 Al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden is a longtime and prominent member of the FBI's "Ten Most Wanted" list, which notes his role as the suspected mastermind of the deadly U.S. embassy bombings in East Africa on Aug. 7, 1998. But another more infamous date -- Sept. 11, 2001 -- is nowhere to be found on the same FBI notice. The curious omission underscores the Justice Department's decision, so far, to not seek formal criminal charges against bin Laden for approving al-Qaeda's most notorious and successful terrorist attack. The notice says bin Laden is "a suspect in other terrorist attacks throughout the world" but does not provide details. The absence has also provided fodder for conspiracy theorists who think the U.S. government or another power was behind the Sept. 11 hijackings. From this point of view, the lack of a Sept. 11 reference suggests that the connection to al-Qaeda is uncertain. Exhaustive government and independent investigations have concluded otherwise, of course, and bin Laden and other al-Qaeda leaders have proudly taken responsibility for the hijackings. FBI officials say the wanted poster merely reflects the government's long-standing practice of relying on actual criminal charges in the notices. "There's no mystery here," said FBI spokesman Rex Tomb. "They could add 9/11 on there, but they have not because they don't need to at this point. . . . There is a logic to it." David N. Kelley, the former U.S. attorney in New York who oversaw terrorism cases when bin Laden was indicted for the embassy bombings there in 1998, said he is not at all surprised by the lack of a reference to Sept. 11 on the official wanted poster. Kelley said the issue is a matter of legal restrictions and the need to be fair to any defendant. "It might seem a little strange from the outside, but it makes sense from a legal point of view," said Kelley, now in private practice. "If I were in government, I'd be troubled if I were asked to put up a wanted picture where no formal charges had been filed, no matter who it was." Bin Laden was placed on the Ten Most Wanted list in June 1999 after being indicted for murder, conspiracy and other charges in connection with the embassy bombings, and a $5 million reward was put on his head at that time. The listing was updated after Sept. 11, 2001, to include a higher reward of $25 million, but no mention of the attacks was added. Others on the list include Colombian drug cartel leader Diego Leon Montoya Sanchez and fugitive Boston crime boss James "Whitey" Bulger, charged with a role in "numerous murders" in the 1970s and 1980s. The FBI maintains a separate "Most Wanted Terrorists" list, which includes bin Laden and 25 others who have been indicted in U.S. federal courts in connection with terror plots. But this second bin Laden listing also makes no mention of Sept. 11. "The indictments currently listed on the posters allow them to be arrested and brought to justice," the FBI says in a note accompanying the terrorist list on its Web site. "Future indictments may be handed down as various investigations proceed in connection to other terrorist incidents, for example, the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001." Staff writer Sari Horwitz contributed to this report.
  9. You are committing a gross error. It does not say that he is NOT wanted for 9/11 MURDER OF U.S. NATIONALS OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES; CONSPIRACY TO MURDER U.S. NATIONALS OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES; ATTACK ON A FEDERAL FACILITY RESULTING IN DEATH USAMA BIN LADEN Photograph of USAMA BIN LADEN Aliases: Usama Bin Muhammad Bin Ladin, Shaykh Usama Bin Ladin, The Prince, The Emir, Abu Abdallah, Mujahid Shaykh, Hajj, The Director DESCRIPTION Date of Birth Used: 1957 Hair: Brown Place of Birth: Saudi Arabia Eyes: Brown Height: 6'4" to 6'6" Sex: Male Weight: Approximately 160 pounds Complexion: Olive Build: Thin Citizenship: Saudi Arabian Language: Arabic (probably Pashtu) Scars and Marks: None known Remarks: Bin Laden is left-handed and walks with a cane. CAUTION Usama Bin Laden is wanted in connection with the August 7, 1998, bombings of the United States Embassies in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, and Nairobi, Kenya. These attacks killed over 200 people. In addition, Bin Laden is a suspect in other terrorist attacks throughout the world. REWARD The Rewards For Justice Program, United States Department of State, is offering a reward of up to $25 million for information leading directly to the apprehension or conviction of Usama Bin Laden. An additional $2 million is being offered through a program developed and funded by the Airline Pilots Association and the Air Transport Association.
  10. Wow Cliff I did not realize you had information regarding UBL that comes from official FBI documents that would be classified. You are amazing in your ability to find out the truth...
  11. Maybe you and your ilk can continue to watch Obama's speeches like they are porn, do anal on each other again, then ATM.
  12. I consider black bear to actually be more of a danger. The problem is that they are often more familiar with humans and consider them as a source of food. People seem to think they are cute, they could not be more wrong. They are probably the leading bear species when it comes to attacking humans. That is anywhere from 200-500lbs of nasty animal hell bent on an easy meal.
  13. The one we killed took 4 large men to move it just 300yds through the forest. That provided enough meat to feed a battalion and there was enough for seconds. (small battalion) ours was just over 300 personnel. not that we gorged, but we made sure there was enough for all. We would have never eaten unless we could all have something. It was nice to have a hot meal in our bellies.
  14. Excellent eating if they have no been scavenging off the rotten critters or people. One of the main reasons why the Hebrews forbade eating pork is because the pigs would eat the dead and diseased.
  15. It might make you wonder if that does not work both ways right? When I made the remark to YOU I was merely trying to point out that things may not be as they seem. I don't want harm to come to you, your family or pets because of complacency.
  16. Wild boars are pretty nasty. Large groups do not care if you have a firearm. I once had an encounter with some Russian boars after we buried the trash. They were very agressive. We ate one the next day. The FMJ we used on it were just passing through and only killed it on a CNS hit. Our Mess Sgt. was very grateful to have such a fine meal to prepare for us.
  17. True unless injured or having a problem that would prevent them from dining on their usual diet. Glad to hear you had a safe and good time.
  18. You mean like you? Please .... ! LMAO Right back at ya, geez I bet you think you are the most knowledgeable person alive. It will escape you that I do have experience and knowledge that you cannot imagine.
  19. Just because you were never injured or killed by a predator does not mean you were not stalked by a predator and viewed as a piece of meat with no hooves, antlers, claws, or other undigestable nuisances.
