Education and earning power don't always correlate. I wonder what the education levels of the 1,000 wealthiest people in the US are? Throwing out those that made their millions the old fashioned way...inheritance.

Ok, I give, you're paying the hourly for the 412!

Grampa worked in a steel mill in PA. He told me once "Boy, don't ever invest in anything that eats and shits, and get a city job". Grampa was a genius!

Welcome to the club!

OK, we'll fly a Jet Ranger then.

R44 Wanna make a jump?

Hmmm, let's see. I invested in and built a bar and grill at Skydive AZ, started an exotic boogie and skydive and fly helicopters for a hobby. I pay California taxes. I have two kids. My wife owes for law school still. Hold on, I'm still adding... I owe about $6,000,000, plus my 48% hit to my 457 retirement plan this month! Hey Barney, Alan, Ben, I need a bailout! Stat! That AIG excursion might be a good start. It's just up the road from me a bit to the St.Regis.

They all just sell "Air Time" like Howard Stern or "Mike and Mike" on ESPN Radio or the "Jonas Brothers" on Radio Disney. A schtick is a schtick, so many idiots buy into their crap. If we could only think for ourselves...

Not many of you made the correlation of General Petreaus stating to speak with the enemy might be a good thing. Isn't this what Obama has been saying since 2002? Isn't the General McCain's favorite guy?

...what the hell???? http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/27090845

"With your history of crashing, NTSB Chairman sound good for you?"

I sure hope the college kids didn't play the "My Friends" drinking game tonight!!!!!

I'm not attacking any opponent, just calling it like I see it.

John McCain has hung around DC with the biggest terrorist bunch on the planet. His pals Dick and W. McCain even has that terrorist groups advisors on his payroll. Getting untold thousands of innocent people killed, bankrupting our nation and profiteering with our military operations using our children's blood and futures. Please, the Ayers thing is a joke of a charge against Obama. The Bush family has hung out with the Taliban and Saudis for years. let's get back to restoring pride and prosperity to our great nation.

Ronald Reagan was one of the worst Presidents in history. When I saw the Republicans debating at his library, spewing shit out of their pie holes about how great he was I wanted to scream. Reagan was the original "cut and run", after the Beirut barracks bombing. He pulled out and let a couple of well known terrorists groups flourish. Hamas, Hezbollah. Iran-Contra He crushed organized labor when he fired the air traffic controllers. Star Wars was a BS waste of billions. Russia was already on the decline and needed to go Capitalist. Afghanistan. He was a third rate actor that Lew Wasserman made into Governor and then President. I'm worried Palin will follow in his footsteps...

Oh well, i was at least west of the 15 fwy.

I saw a black helicopter in "Mission Impossible", does that count. I was in Rancho San Diego AMC 16, I suppose that's "West California".

McCain's "associates" have bombed countless innocent folks, gotten over 4,000 of our citizens killed, a bunch of citizens from other nations killed and bankrupted America. They have ruined more lives in 8 years than any 1,000 Bill Ayers. Point was??????

Trying to get GWB dog pooh off of your shoe takes longer than 2 years piper.

The WTC disaster was the largest single structure fire. You could say Nagasaki and Hiroshima were bigger. But I'm talking building, not city wide. There is PLENTY of footage to show the fire and collapse of surrounding buildings.

I'm going to throw the bullshit flag on these guys. have you ever had a building collapse on you? Have you ever seen a roof of a single story building collapse? Ever see what a massive building fire does to the contents? How about what happens in a small industrial fire? I have been riding fire trucks since 1976. I have been caught in three collapses. It's quite an experience. I read the report from truth 9/11.org. Some of their "clues" and impressions are flat out wrong, IMHO. You can call me if you would like to discuss what happens in a collapse. Air pressure, structure failure, fire load, etc. There are a number of other FF's that post here that could add a lot to the discussion also. What happened on September 11th, 2001 was the largest structure fire in the history of the world. It spread to a number of buildings. The destruction caused was the like of which haven't been seen before. Not even in war, because of the sheer size of the WTC. A fire and collapse of that magnitude was never dealt with before. It caused many things to happen that no one could understand. Including the engineers and architects. Could explosives been planted, sure. It's possible. But I highly doubt it. I had friends dig on the pile for weeks looking for our brothers. They don't recall anything "unusual", if you can say that while digging through the rubble of skyscrapers. I guess I'll have to wait for the Oliver Stone movie to come out before we'll get the answers.

Larry Hill took off in an Otter from the top of the Lang hill also. It looked like a carrier launch. it had hardly any fuel and only 3 people on board. One was Lil clutching to the dashboard.

And I'm still trying to figure out why Obama doesn't like Australia??? Maybe he doesn't like kangaroos, horse racing and meat pies!

pilot-one, Your remarks about Australia are pitifull. Read a history book or two. They are one of our greatest allies. And for the rest of you, stay the hell out of Belize!

Yeah, when Ellen and Portia got married it ruined my wife's view on our marriage. We haven't been able to sleep. Our life is hell. Damn gay marriage ruins everything. I think it started the financial crisis. I'm getting an ulcer. I hope Sarah's preacher puts a hex on those gays. They deserve it. Ruining my marriage like that, how dare them.
