dropzones? Manufacturers? Aircraft suppliers? or all of the above? I pride myself is some of the best customer service in the industry and take it pretty seriously every day. So if you at a lousy service dropzone, go find another one. If another one dies not exist, then start one. But my experience is there are plenty of very well run dropzones out there that deliver very good service

Erica got one of hers ripped off rather nastily on opening a bunch of years ago.......ouch!

Yep, and I bet if Billy R. posted something about a certain case - he would say "TK Hayes is a douchebag" and he would have something to back it up. I have something to back up my statements as well. But in the end.....where is BR these days anyway???

Don't try and scare me with the 'what-if' stuff. What you say actually happened in so many ways it is/was unbelievable. The accusations were almost comical, except that i had to then defend against them. I call Z a douchebag because he is. wannabee cop, arms himself to protect the neighborhood with little or no authority to do so. lies to courts, basically fucks up his own case with his own actions. he's a fucking douchebag.

No problem with that either - but that is NOT what is happening in FL if Scott gets his way. he will purge first, then ask people to 're-register' effectively. Go through the roles and get rid of the non-citizens. Go through the roles and get rid of dead people by all means. DO NOT remove someone who is alive and well just because they 'might' be illegal.

I agree. Do you think it is OK for the same govt to purge citizens from the voting roles?

The number of votes in 2000 is not actually the issue here, but nice try. If the issue happened in 2000 then why does the govt wait 12 years and right before an election to solve the problem?

Life's unfair - therefore we get to forego the Constitution. I get it.

And FL reports on the news this morning that it is highly unlikely that they will be able to do a reliable comparison of the DHS databases in time for the election. So far, FL has only 2700 'suspect' voters, of which several hundred have already been cleared as eligible. The report in the news article executive summary says hundreds of thousands could be affected: http://www.brennancenter.org/content/resource/the_challenge_of_obtaining_voter_identification#summ Which basically makes my case - not statistically significant a problem, whereas the voter purge could do FAR MORE damage to the rights of voters, trying to fix a statistically insignificant problem. I wonder if purged voters that are disenfranchised because of the voter ID issue would also be disenfranchised about bothering to sue the State over being wrongly purged. I would hope not.

and made him an 18 year old douchebag.....

remember the part where I said he was a douchebag? Well I stand corrected.....I meant to say he is a douchebag. http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/lookout/zimmerman-witness-sexual-molestation-160900334.html

Fine, if that is all that it is. But sadly it is not. They are PURGING THE VOTER ROLES. AND purging legal citizens from those roles. So ask for the ID, but if you purged my right to vote, I will burn down your house - ;-) I object STRONGLY to have legal citizens right to vote removed, even temporarily, for any reason. If it is SO FUCKING IMPORTANT, then send a government worker to my house with my registration card in hand, to verify my ID and hand me my New Voter ID card. But if you put that workload back on me, as a voter, when I already have free and legitimate, legal right to vote, then you have violated the most basic of all of my rights. Not a chance in hell. I accept the handful of legal votes to the tens of thousands that are purged. Once again, for the nth time, the problem is NOT proven, and even if it was/is, it is NOT statistically significant, and certainly not worth the millions of taxpayer dollars that we have spent trying to fix it.

Actually,I clearly remember snake-oil salesmen back in the 80's as well-

www.sunshine-factory.com call Dave Ruffell at 813-788-9831, save yourself a load of aggravation....

Technology has a ways to go. In 1972 only a handful of people had the $1000 microwave ovens. Now they are a household necessity at $69 If we did not spend BILLIONS on the space program, you would not be able to buy a Ryobi or Dewalt 18V drill either. So shaddup. technology is developing, whether you think it is viable or not. some work out, some don't. That will not stop the desire to pursue future technologies. And oil might be the answer today, but it likely will not be in 100 years. electric cars are coming and when gas is $8/gallon, we will build more of them and far more public transit. You will decide to live in a place where you can hop the train to work instead of driving anyway. Or maybe you will ride your horse.....

I predict single payer in the USA in 12 years or less and I am putting $10 on it

One again - I am not totally against an ID program but the plan is to ban voters first- by unregistering them and putting that onto the voter to fix. You want to ask for an ID ? Then fine - do it at the polls- but if even ONE citizen is not allowed to vote because they were removed wrongly from the registration, then the system has failed and the Constitution breached So how do you propose to fix this without first removing the voters?

Here's an observation of mine. To assume that the ONLY reason I enjoy freedoms is because someone carried a rifle is about the biggest load of bullshit that ever came out of anyone's mouth. There are LOT of reason's for freedoms that we enjoy. military service IS actually one of them, but certainly not exclusive, nor does it in ANY WAY diminish the actions of those that promote peace instead of war. Once again, some of those in military service put themselves far above ll of the other people in this country that supposedly enjoy 'equal rights'. I call bullshit. It's your choice to serve in the military. You might think that you have some exclusive 'observation' of the Constitution on account of that, but in fact you do not. I still support the Constitution, I just do it in a different way. DIFFERENT. Not worse nor better.

agreed, I'm drunk.... It might be cruel, but it is actually fair.....

ahh yes, the personal attack - the FINEST of arguments..... How about this, YOU have never served your county in the service of PEACE. how fucking UN-NOBLE of you...... typical bullshit response. Try a fact someday - I might actually listen to you.....

Even a better idea......since those benefits actually cot TAX dollars to pay for, I volunteer YOUR tax dollars to continue to pay for them, if you are so in favor of them......how very CONSERVATIVE of me......

things change, for everyone. yes everyone. i.e. For the past 60 years, we have been fighting wars. Some day, maybe we are not fighting wars. People who signed up 10 years might have an expectation that we will continue to fight wars. Maybe we won't though. Do I owe them the expectation that they had? I signed on with IBM at 20 years old with a corporation that had full employment through to retirement as standard policy......well all that changed..... Now I run a DZ in Florida. things change. That is why we have elections and govt's. get over it. If you want everything to remain the same forever, then elect a government that will do that - and good luck with it.....

Tricare, medicare, medicare part a , medicare part b, medicaid, the VA, the whatever number of fucking other programs that might be out there..... Why does everyone seem to think that (especially the conservatives) it could POSSIBLY be efficient or cost effective to have all these different programs, each with administrative overhead. Healthcare is healthcare. You get shot in Detroit, you get shot in Iraq, it's the same medicine/doctors/surgeons that that fix you up and get you through rehab and recovery. You have a car accident in Tampa, you have a car accident on an AFB in California, it;s the same medical procedures that get you fixed up and back into shape. The first thing the govt should do to solve health care is merge EVERY SINLGE MEDICAL PROGRAM under one administration and stop duplicating the overhead. Plain and simple and one step closer to an easy single-payer solution for all. Then we would not need to hear about people complaining that the military has to 'pay more' because everyone would be "paying". period.

I disagree with that statement and would ask you to back that up. One of the ways to reduce the administrative costs is to combine the services. We do not need a VA, Medicare, Medicaid, State and local programs that all do the same things yet duplicate the admin side of it. An early step could be to combine ALL those agencies under one roof. We also need torte reform. The payments do not cover the costs for a lot of reasons. But the bottom line is that repairing a broken arm should not cost $25,000. What does that cost go into? If it takes a surgeon, 3 O.R. nurses to do the procedure and the procedure takes 3 hours, then that is $8000+/hour. Bottom line, the Doctor ain't making $1000/hour for his work - so where is the money going? It's a broken arm, - maybe we do not need the MRI, the massive antibiotics, the X-Rays and the pre-treatments, the outside consulting firms, the billing departments from 4 different companies that have their hand in it, etc. Maybe we just need a doctor, an operating room, an X-Ray and an operation and ONE bill. Yes, there needs to be overhaul at many levels. Unless we start the process, we can never finish it. And 'not having the final perfect solution to every problem at hand' is NOT a reason to not start the process.
