Are these witnesses that say he quit wearing the toupee after the hijacking, the same witnesses who remember that he skipped out on Thanksgiving dinner the weekend of the hijacking? Also, Ckret shot down the idea of Cooper wearing a toupee earlier in the forum. He basically said that no one mentioned that they thought he was wearing one. Much like I have a hard time with someone having colored contacts in 1971, I also have a hard time believing that Cooper could have worn toupee in 1971 and it went completely unnoticed, except by Mr. Mitchell, who was only a casual observer and had no reason whatsoever to remember anything about Cooper. The whole Weber pamadjeon strikes me as a homespun feudal doctrine perhaps best expressed this way! Le Coope de Duano Come and listen to a story about a man named Jed A poor mountaineer, barely kept his family fed, Then one day he was shootin at some food, And up through the ground came a bubblin crude. Oil that is, black gold, Texas tea. Well the first thing you know ol Jed's a millionaire, Kinfolk said "Jed move away from there" Said "Californy is the place you ought to be" So they loaded up the truck and moved to Beverly. Hills, that is. Swimmin pools, movie stars. Well now its time to say good by to Jed and all his kin. And they would like to thank you folks fer kindly droppin in. You're all invited back a gain to this locality To have a heapin helpin of their hospitality Hillybilly that is. Set a spell, Take your shoes off. Y'all come back now, y'hear? I said, I said, that is, I'm Dan Coopre'. Yepper! Y'all come back now, y'hear? I have more Property fer sale!

Excuse ME - Mr JW! WHY should I not enquire? It was in Mr. H's book & in the media of the day. There was NO alledgedly to this - there WAS a car left at a storage unit near the Airport Duane Weber worked for companies out of the S.E. and the S.W. for 2 very politically and union connected individuals! U do realize you are getting too old for this - U rarely post regarding what I say! U only say something WHEN U realize - She's getting to CLOSE! She KNOWS! Your mission is NOT to investigate, but seek & destroy. WHAT is YOUR real interest? Over the yrs, it has become obvious I am Friend & FOE, but the friend is to see HOW much I have not told & the Foe is to stop her if she goes too far! U Can't Stop Me Now - IT IS TOO LATE! Did NOT Galen come for a family of Union connected attornies? Did Galen NOT at on time perform as a UNION Attorney? Can NOT one of U see the HAND writing on the WALL? Galen & Georger walk hand in hand...Georger is Cooks puppet or co-worker. Georger never asks me a question except when he gets a little concerned! NOT one of U guys has figured this out yet! Georger & Galen and JT will do everything in their power to make sure the truth is NEVER know! TOO late for that...concentrate on how to handle the consequences.

What year was this Jo? When did you have your first call with Sheridan? I don't need exact date. Year will suffice. 377 and WHY is she calling at all!? What is her interest in this matter!? I mean isn;t this just a bit strange!? Plain bizzare? One person claiming to be Cooper calls another who people suspect of being Cooper and they have a chat! A chat about some car parked at PDX by two other guys - one of who might be Cooper or who delivered yet another, who might be Cooper? Beam me up Scotty! WILL THE REAL COOPER PSE STAND UP! How many Coopers can stand on the head of a pin and call each other and have a nice chat ... about the weather? Why is one Cooper calling another Cooper - at all! To rat the other Cooper out? To exchange recipes? ...................... .............................................................................. Hello Muddah Hello Fadduh Here I am at Camp Grenada!

Jo, Did Himmelsbach give you Sheridan's contact info? What is the connection between a rental car abandoned at the airport immediately after Norjack and a skydiving contest in the 1960s? Was the company that had employees in the 1960s contest the same one that rented the car in 1971? If that is true, only the FBI would know it intially. How would anyone make the connection to a 1960s skydiving contest? Did Sheridan tell you that he turned over Issaquah skydiving records to the FBI or did Himmelsbach tell you that? Did Sheridan know anything about Duane? 377 When I contacted Sheridan the first time - I was told to contact him by Himmelsbach. Do not remember if Mr. H provide the phone number, but he did tell me the name of the Skydiving Club in Issaquah and that I needed to talk to Sheridan - as he would know more about it than he did. It was my enquiry to Mr. H about the vehicle that was reported at a location near the airport...that prompted Mr. H to tell me to contact Richard Petersen. Mr. H told me Sheridan would be able to answer my questions about that and Sheridan did indeed answer my questions. I would have one more conversation with Sheridan while he was still in that area. The car rental being from a company out of the SE and 2 of the jumpers at Issaquah who had claimed one of the guys they took up (for a company out of the SE for a contest) looked like Cooper....this is what spurred my contact with Sheridan. Sheridan did volunteer the records & provided the FBI with he had. Just from MY memory - I am under the impression the FBI never discussed the results with him or the others. If I remember correctly from the conversation the FBI did talk to the 2 guys. Sheridan simply provided the records to the FBI & he did not see the GUYS the 2 took up. If I remember correctly it was the media reports of a car being left near the Airport area by a company out of the SE...that caused these 2 jumper to believe that one of the group they took up could have been Cooper....but, I truely do NOT remember the details of that conversation - just my notes. Sheridan was extremely polite to me and frankly - I wanted to meet the man and still do. He severed any communication after this thread started pestering him...and he was truely not doing well at that time. All of the research on the first contacts are in my phone bills and in notes in a couple of spiral note books I kept and in my planner. Hope I answered all of your question and that they agree with any information provided by Sheridan. It was my enquiry to Mr. H about the vehicle that was reported at a location near the airport...that prompted Mr. H to tell me to contact Richard Petersen. Why were you contacting an FBI agent about some car allegedly parked near the Portland airport on the day of the Cooper hijacking? How did you even learn of this 'car'? Who were you investing for? What was your interest in this obscure matter!?

So Sailshaw, yes, it was possible to change eye color with contacts in 1971. 377 Any physical effects/ramifications from bailing in Cooper's config with 1971 (glass?) contacts on? No visor or goggles.. would he take them out to bail? Vision issues with dark contacts in ?

This frickin information came the hell from the PI Transcripts at 7:42 confirmed by later testimony of the crew. It was Tina's first frickin opportunity the hell to tell the frickin the hell crew what she had frickin the hell witnessed .... Cooper has told her to frickin the hell go forward; she is now in the frickin the hell cockpit with the frickin the hell crew.... OK Frickin The hell? Quote: 7:42 pm 305: MSP FLT OPS this is 305 outbound Seattle 14 miles (out) on V23. Seattle he is already trying to get the door down. Stewardess (Mucklow) is with us (in cockpit). He cannot get the stairs down. 305: We now have an aft stair lite on. MSP: Roger.305. This is followed by: 7:54 pm MSP: As soon as reasonably sure the man has left the quicker you can land. 305: Roger. Miss Mucklow said he apparently has the knapsack around him and thinks he will attempt a jump. MSP: Roger. After leaving this freq go to 131.8 we have direct phone patch There 305: Roger. This is followed by: (7:55pm pst) NWA - MSPFO asked for stewardess best recollection of exact content of HJ briefcase. She got on radio and gave the following basic information: _ Eight red sticks, about 6” x1” in left corner of brief case. “Look like big red firecrackers.” Two rows of sticks. Four on top of four. _ Wire attached to dynamite with red insulation. _ Battery “like flashlight battery but about 6” high and as big around as my arm”. _ Red sticks are about the color “of my uniform”. ...............................................................................

Yes or no? From a lawyer? On the one hand maybe, on the other hand it depends... OK, I'll put on my engineer hat. YES. I believe Cooper jumped with an NB rig. Ripcord handle location is subject to dispute but it's still a basic NB 6 or NB 8 rig with a high speed military canopy either a 28 foot C 9 or a Navy 26 foot conical. Definitely the right rig for the jump in my opinion. 377 I will accept that. We're on the same page. Also agree with your sentiments on the handle .... Now let's see what the future brings.

Of course he did (Ckret) (laughing) .... and his last call to the front nails that he had some sensitivity to speed and stability, to maximize his chances jumping which I assumes means "opening the chute out of a jet". Aamazon could chime in on that. BUT... are you convinced Hayden's chute(s) and DB's chute used are one-and-the-same? Same basic configuration? Yes or no? AND, if Ckret is committed to load-master why is he still clinging to novice? That I don't get...

That's one helluva good point! I assume Hayden's rigs were of this type, ie the one's given Cooper? Both Hancock and Tina said Cooper put the chute on 'easily', just did it, as if he had done it before. There is no mistake about their testimony. My personal bias is somebody would have to be crazy to do this hijacking stunt without prior experience, but that's just me. Some think Cooper was a novice (hippie) and crazy. He definitely called forward after 8:05 and asked the plane be "slowed" and "stabilized", using those words. Andy and BR confirmed that even though it isn't in the transcripts. Crazy is as crazy does ?

Thanks! G.

Unless Cooper examined the packing cards (and this is disputed, Himmelsbach told me personally that there is no evidence that it happened), there is no way Cooper could know what canopy was inside each container. With an NB 6 or 8 it was likely to have a miltary high speed ejection canopy inside but by no means certain. The canopy is far more important than the harness and container for being able to safely deploy at high speeds. I have heard af canopies blowing up if deployed above rated speeds but harness failures are extremely rare and are usually due to preexisting unrepaired damage. According to Norman both rigs had the same military high speed canopies inside but Cooper may not have known that. Just slipping a bit of fabric out to examine it wouldn't tell you much about canopy type, size and speed rating. It would just tell you whether it was made of ripstop or twill material. Cooper did make the right choice in my opinion but without knowing more about his thought process and whether he examined the packing cards, we cant rule out the possibility that it was a random choice. I have a recent email address for Sheridan and wrote to him but he continues to ignore me. The very good news is that he got radiation treatment for his cancer and says that he is cured. He also posted on a blog that he was beaten up. By who? Why? I asked him but no response. Who would beat up a sick man in his 80s? When I sent him the cheer package through Bruce a few years ago he was very grateful and friendly but later flipped and called me FBI CIA etc. I tried to send him another cheer package during the holidays at the end of 2013, but he would not supply an address. Anyway I am very glad his health is improving. Too bad I cant have a dialog with him. I'd love to hear his opinion about Norjack and Cooper. I'd also like to know why he thinks the FBI even bothered asking a blue eyed man for a DNA sample to rule him out as Cooper? Think about it, that is quite odd. His eye color alone should have ruled him out but the FBI apparently didnt agree. 377 The other issue is what did the stews SEE Cooper do when the chutes were brought on board at approx 5:30pm pst until the time when Tina goes forward, turns and watches Cooper, then goes into the cockpit at roughly ~7:42pm pst ("Stewardess (Mucklow) is with us (in cockpit)". This spans roughly 2 hours and 12 minutes! Posts by Ckret etal about what the stews saw and testified to, go way back in the thread. This has all be thoroughly discussed before... Hancock (Ckret) reported 'Cooper began putting on a parachute almost immediately after they were brought in' (~5:30pm). Tina confirmed that (Ckret) and added ' he put it on easily as if he had done it before' and 'he refused instructions that I handed him saying "I don't need those'' '. Tina added: 'He opened one of the chutes and looked inside then closed it up before putting it on'. All of this transpired shortly after the chutes being brought on board and given Cooper at roughly 5:30pm pst. The next reference to Cooper's preparations or chutes comes at roughly 7:42pm pst when Tina (now in the cockpit) reports she 'saw Cooper open one chute and began trying to dump money into the container, then Cooper began cutting cords from the chute, and is tying parachute cord around his waste apparently in an attempt to secure the parachute container full of money around his waste'. She says 'he looks likes he's going to jump soon...'. Scott accordingly reports on the radio ' ... looks like he's getting ready to leave...' The only period of time when Cooper was not under observation is from 7:42pm to roughly ~8:11-8:16 when he bails. Nobody reported seeing Cooper open chutes and give them a thorough inspection before 7:42. When Tina last saw Cooper at ~7:42 he had already put on a chute over an hour before, he spent time cutting cord and tying a chute container full of money around his waste, and the flight engineer then reports Cooper finishing getting the door open and the stairs down, Cooper trying the stairs (oscillation?), Cooper finally comes back to the area where the intercom is located and answers the intercom at ~8:05 saying everything is "OK", and the pressure bump occurs ~8:11-8:15 (reported by Rataczak after discussion among the crew somewhere near the 8:16-8:20 period). From 7:42 until Cooper he bails at ~8:11-8:16 Cooper appears to have been fully occupied and looking for an opportunity to jump. In the 8:05 period, for example, he wasn't even in the area of the intercom to answer it quickly. We also know from Rataczak and Anderson testimony that Cooper called front on the intercom one more time between 8:05-8:10 (not reported in the Transcripts) and asked them to "slow and stabilize the plane". There is no time or reason to be inspecting chutes, taking off and putting on chutes, etc etc after the 7:42 time mark! That is the basic factual record supported by witness testimony, the Transcripts, and discussion/testimony in the thread to date.

Oh no, Nimrod. It was YOUR theory - you prove it! Use the Transcriptrs or any other documents you have! Start by looking up events you describe in #1.

I like to think that Cooper's NB 6 (or NB 8) rig choice evidenced military parachute knowledge, but I am painfully aware that it could have been a coin toss. Two chutes were available. He had to pick one. Might have been as simple as just randomly choosing one of the pair. Occam likes explanation that but I am still arguing with him. 377 I am betting it just looked cleaner to him. There is another factor in play here. When Mucklow tried to present Cooper with instructions on how to use a parachute, he told her didn't need them. Then he pops the one good civilian reserve for the cords. Mucklow never saw him trying to attach the non-working reserve, so where did it go? My guess is out the back after he opened the door. This leaves the sport chute and the military mains. He picks the military without hesitation. My guess is he was military. When he didn't try to pop the non-working reserve for the cords, there are only two possible answers. Either he picked randomly and was correct, or he recognized the non-working reserve. No D-rings, as 377 has pointed out, made it impossible to attach the non-working reserve. But it is not found on the aircraft. Sounds like he knew what he was doing to me...IF he were an ex-military jumper. Only several prolemos with your flawed strawman scenarios ... #1: These events you say were connected in time, were NOT connected in time! Many minutes passed between these events you isolate and portray as being connected: When Mucklow tried to present Cooper with instructions on how to use a parachute, he told her didn't need them. Then he pops the one good civilian reserve for the cords. #2: Mucklow never saw him trying to attach the non-working reserve, so where did it go? Just an extraneous fact you throw in to complicate things which has no bearing on anything else you are linking together - How do you know she never saw him! Were you there? #3: This leaves the sport chute and the military mains. He picks the military without hesitation. Were you there to see it - NO! But you say as fact: He picks the military without hesitation. Really! How do you know - were you there? #4: Sounds like he knew what he was doing to me...IF he were an ex-military jumper. So if he didn't know what he was doing he was NOT an ex-military jumper? Only military jumper would know what he was doing, because to you, he knew what he was doing, and that implies only an ex-military jumper (like Kenny), and only Kenny and no other because: he knew what he was doing with his left hand which only YOU KNOWS!

You have exactly ZERO respect for anything, IMHO. You are a victim of blind hatred, lashing out like a wounded animal. That's a writer metaphor. I was almost going to say congratulations on winning something ... until it occurred to me I might be rushing to judgement. You may have something here, or not. The first concrete thing since you came here in 2010! That is a long wait by any standard. Since I have not the faintest clue who or what "Winner of the Week at BeWrite" is or means. Could be a frog caller call-off for all I know. And having no class ... it wouldnt matter what I thought to yer nibs anyway, now would it parles vous. Pass the Grey Poupon and Kipling pleeuz. Throw in a Miller Lite. Im going to bed with the hogs and dream of flying with chickens like those classy BeWrite winners do!

Georger says in part... And something about Gunga Din or whatever. EDIT: Are you like the Designated Attack Dog From the Alternate Website? If so, you should demand a raise since I see you're willing to stoop to making fun of an obituary. If I were willing to do that for some cause, you can bet I would demand max dollars. Fortunately, I make enough in my regular job that I don't have to stoop to doing that. Your situation might be different, I get that. But I would ask for more pay and better benefits in exchange for selling off my character... I will make this simple for you Blevins- You claim Neil Marr was your close friend and mentor? Yes? That is what you posted. Neil passed away at 9pm yesterday evening after a brief but ultimately unwinnable battle against cancer at the Centre Hospitalier Princess Grace, France. - See more at: http://www.theindependentpublishingmagazine.com/2014/04 /former-bewrite-founder-and-editor- neil.html#sthash.v5WcsPVp.dpuf That Neil Marr. What poetry was Marr particularly fond of? You should know being his longtime close friend and associate! Well ........... Kipling of course, being a Scott/Brit. Took me two minutes to find that out on the internet. Then you post a quote from Kipling! So .... I'll explain it to you .... I followed and posted the whole poem "Gunga Din or whatever" you call it - what class! Mr Blevins, read this very carefully! Neil Marr + your quote from Gunga Din + one of Marr's favorite authors (Kipling) ='s posting of Gunga Din by Georger! Do you git it now? Can you hear me now? I thought you were a literary guy? A man of letters? An Editor? A close friend of Neil Marr you say was your longtime close friend and MENTOR! And yet you dont know that Marr especially liked Kipling? And Gunga Din is what you quoted from ........... so I gave you the whole poem which your close friend liked and the quotation you yourself used!! 1 + 1 + 1 ='s 3. It's amazing! Do you get it now? Maybe you need to go back and find out who Neil Marr was? Since you posted about him and quoted Gunga Din (Kipling)! I have plenty of time. I'll wait for you to figure it out and catch up to yourself. And you are a great man of letters to boot! Never heard of Kipling or Gunga Din before? Dont know that your very close longtime friend and mentor loved that poem! ???? I'm Or maybe you did not know Mr Marr as well as you claim? There always seems to be a great big Black Hole right smack dab in the middle of everything you claim and do? Maybe it's just your style. Let's see if the NWA archive link you posted tonight proves to be anything of merit ... who knows: maybe you got a winning lottery ticket finally!

Aw yes - wasn't he a personal friend of Duane's too? You have no class. He was a far better man than you, I think. For one thing, he never had a bad word for anyone. For another, instead of trying to knock people down, he often gave them a leg up. Iffun yer gonna quotate it, quotate it! Thoroughly British Milly. Which you aint! Gunga Din You may talk o' gin and beer When you're quartered safe out 'ere, An' you're sent to penny-fights an' Aldershot it; But when it comes to slaughter You will do your work on water, An' you'll lick the bloomin' boots of 'im that's got it. Now in Injia's sunny clime, Where I used to spend my time A-servin' of 'Er Majesty the Queen, Of all them blackfaced crew The finest man I knew Was our regimental bhisti, Gunga Din. He was "Din! Din! Din! "You limpin' lump o' brick-dust, Gunga Din! "Hi! Slippy hitherao! "Water, get it! Panee lao "You squidgy-nosed old idol, Gunga Din." The uniform 'e wore Was nothin' much before, An' rather less than 'arf o' that be'ind, For a piece o' twisty rag An' a goatskin water-bag Was all the field-equipment 'e could find. When the sweatin' troop-train lay In a sidin' through the day, Where the 'eat would make your bloomin' eyebrows crawl, We shouted " Harry By!" Till our throats were bricky-dry, Then we wopped 'im 'cause 'e couldn't serve us all. It was "Din! Din! Din! "You 'eathen, where the mischief 'ave you been?

It was "Din! Din! Din!" With the bullets kickin' dust-spots on the green When the cartridges ran out, You could hear the front-ranks shout, "Hi! ammunition-mules an' Gunga Din!" I sha'n't forgit the night When I dropped be'ind the fight With a bullet where my belt-plate should 'a' been.

Aw yes - wasn't he a personal friend of Duane's too?

I am reminded of another quote, said by someone else who posts here occasionally: ***'They deserve each other over there...' (alternate site) I hear something. It's faint, but I can hear it. Yes. They are calling you. *Cooper-Related Contest* (Was deleted due to lack of guesses LOL) Maybe I will put it up again at a later date. Yu did the deleting! If yous gonna quote me quote my WHOLE POST! You deleted the Cooper info. This is a Cooper forum after all! So go back a quote the Cooper info I included. Thank you very much, Rev. Blevins.

Don't take the bait Jo. Concentrate on investigation not retaliation or response to Galen. You have more important work to do. 377 Received 2 emails this morning from a couple of those Galen listed and THEY have NEVER discussed Jo Weber in that manner with anyone! I made sure that everyone still living received a copy of Galen's posting so they are aware of what he us doing. Already got one reply: This is what he had to say: Jo: "I really don't want to get in the middle of this - but you should know I've never in my life used those words to describe you (either in public, private or in any other manner). Cook lists seven people as saying the exact same thing about you - even using quotation marks....I can't believe seven people on any subject would use the same exact words to describe anything. Although I don't appreciate being misquoted in such an obvious manner I wanted you to know - at least in his lumping me in with this quote with others it is complete B.S. and I hope you know me well enough to know that. You know me, I don't think I'd use those words to describe anyone, ever - particularly to a stranger on the phone."

ka'ching! ka'ching! ka'ching! ka'ching! ka'ching! next please! $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

Well, that is the viewpoint ('common sense should tell me KC wasn't Cooper') of a few folks here and there. The problem is that although I have not yet been able to prove beyond a doubt that KC WAS Cooper, that there is a fair amount of evidence to believe that he may have been. Stuff like motivation, opportunity, the means, his resemblance to the sketch, and an unending series of lies and dodges by the alleged accomplice, etc. You've heard all that already. The hard truth is, more evidence and direct witness testimony by LIVING people has been presented against Kenny Peter Christiansen than any other suspect to date. And...unlike any other suspect EVER presented in the Cooper case, I actually gave LEO and the public the means to discover the truth for themselves via the KC report. No one has ever done that either, i.e. made public a 29-page document of the available evidence with the names of the key principals. No one. That is a hard fact everyone seems to ignore. I have to say I found it interesting that Bill Mitchell told Washington State History Museum in his interview with them that he thought Cooper could have been wearing a toupee. That makes FIVE people now who have somehow related a possible hairpiece with the possible hijacker: Dawn Androsko, (sister of the alleged accomplice), Helen Jones, her daughter, Margie Geestman, and now...Bill Mitchell...a guy who sat directly across the aisle from DB Cooper. At the time Porteous and I proposed that KC was wearing a toupee (if he was the hijacker) we had no idea that a direct witness to the hijacking was thinking the same thing. Common sense? Common sense says the Seattle FBI might want to consider hunting down the witnesses named in the KC report and question them. At least with them, there is somebody to question and either confirm or eliminate Kenny once and for all. In the case of Cook suspect William Gossett, or Marla Cooper's uncle, there is absolutely no one to go to in an investigation. Speaking of Galen Cook, I haven't tried to visit the alternate site lately so I don't know what he's saying about Jo. I do know what he said regarding the relationship between Skipp Porteous and myself, and that was a pack of lies taller than the Sears Tower. (See attached) It was clear back in 2005? 2006? when Cook was promising his revelatory book on Gossett, but there has been nothing from him. I think the investigation on Christiansen, and the release of the KC report (with the unedited version reaching some media by special request) has put pressure on him. This could be the reason he finally resorted to lying, in a lame effort to discredit. He's desperate, in my opinion. None of his sources or theories have panned out, and also in my opinion...when he released the picture of Gossett taken 18 months after the hijacking, this did not help his case. All of a sudden, the guy in the pictures he's been promoting all these years looks far different than any possible description given by the FBI, or the sketch. So now he's lying, attacking, and reaching...out of frustration. If anyone doubts the truth of this, I will be happy to re-post Cook's statements on Porteous from the alternate site...as well as Porteous' recent email response. That's what I like about you God-fearing types - there's always a WAR - keep the shekels rolling in! Queen Marla needs a new dress! Thanks for your contribution! All is vanity and a striving for Top Dog in the Cooper Cemetery of suspects, geniuses, researchers/gossip peddlers. Who did what to who before the whole house collapsed in on the whole thing! Wonnerful-a-winnerful. Now let's hear from Ether Bunny & The Lemon Systers! How any rivets in a submarine and which way do they point? I'll bet you guys know!

Georger - I truely hope she was never damaged emotionally, but being realistic she had to have had problems afterwards. Not many people are able to experience something that tramatic and not be effected. She spent a few yrs trying to find her self after a failed marriage. The emotional problems cause by not only the incident but by the media did affect her life as they would anyone else. Frankly - I could never have done what she has done & how she has handle her life since the incident. She felt the need to help other overcome problems & this became the foundation of her life. The experience caused her to come to the realization of her purpose on this earth. Are you going to deny that you never had to see a purpose for your life? Her purpose came to be - helping others, but she was not sure how to direct that purpose. As the yr followed she realize being nun was not the answer and she then went into the private sector doing what she loved to do - helping other to overcome their problems. She became what she was intended to become - some one who extends a guiding hand and a voice of comfort. She has indeed put the memories in the back of her mind -and even her memories like mine regarding my life - often become scrambled. That is natural - the carton of eggs is dropped and you make scramble eggs, or a cakes or pancakes. You take what is dealt to you and do the very best you can do. The most important thing - is not harming those in your way and to always be kind. When one has been there themselves trying to guide others down the path became natural. The only shield one has - is to stay off the main road and hope you can keep a low profile. This is how Tina has had to live her life for 42 yrs. She quickly learned during those first few yrs after the crime - this is NOT funny - this is scary...she went into a marriage and it failed. Cooper probably did NOT have anything to do with that. It was after the divorce that she sought solace and wanted to feel protected. This is my own feelings and what I assume to be very close to the truth. She is viabrant and intelligent and spiritual person, with a deep respect for the poor, the emotionally ill and anyone in need. She knows that what she does might someday save a life or make that life better. If she has to tell a little white lie to sugar coat the truth - I would never put that beyond her. NO she is not a nun - her heart is good and I really hope I get to meet her someday....and NOT to talk about Cooper. She has a story to tell and I hope that some day she tells that story - a story about overcoming obstacles in our lives. Pending some kind of definitive statement from Tina herself on these issues ... everything else is jumping to conclusions based on 'who knows what'! Lots of people seem to have 'opinions' about Tina Mucklow. How much is fact vrs myth, I do not know. But it could be totally different than people with opinions are saying. I know Smokin99 has some pretty strong opinions about this. And Smokin99 is far more rational about this, always looks for facts, etc. The underlying fact is neither Tina nor her family have ever issued any actual statements on this matter - except to leave us alone!

... and of course if it should turn out neither you or Blevins knows what in hell you are talking about with regard to Tina Mucklow, well then ... it wouldnt be the first time ... and you are both full of crap!

Before you get disappeared, Bobby, could you tell us when Curtis gave Marla the lie-detector test? Month, year??? Thanks. Good Luck in the Witness Protection Progam or wherever the feds send you. Might be a FEMA camp, too. Tina's old convent in Eugene is a sweet place, too. How the hell should I know the exact date? Ask the Seattle FBI. Or ask Marla. You already said she hung up the phone on you. Maybe if you'd try to approach sources reasonably and politely, they'd allow you a second chance at them. That is not my fault, but yours. Establishing a source and then alienating them on the first contact is generally not a good policy. That's an opinion. Non-Cooper: I'm calling for the black boxes on Flight 370, should they be found...NOT be turned over immediately to the Malaysian government. Bob, you need to enlist a cognitive emotive archivist to locate the rest of your mind. As noted by many, your logic program is flawed/corrupted. The whole world can't be WRONG and only you RIGHT ! Your fear of the FBI raiding you or AB Books to get your socalled work is ill-founded. It is far more likely that you have been profiled as a possible threat to yourself or the community ... guys in a white van might show up to do an evaluation. It sometimes happens to famous genius writers like you! Trust us on this. Who is 'Us'? Are you representing someone besides yourself now? Or is this a multiple-personality thing. LOL. I'll just assume the rest of your post is a joke. You don't know me at all. Get real. Besides, you never even addressed a single point from either the article from 2010 (which you asked about anyway, and is pretty clear) or my thoughts on the black boxes from 370. As usual, you just used the fact that I posted at all as an excuse to make another shit comment. Make sure you give a warning when you get ready to actually make a Cooper-related post. I wouldn't want other users on this thread to have a sudden stroke out of shock. 'The truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it, ignorance may deride it, but in the end, there it is...' Winston Churchill Winston Churchill. I should have guessed it. Maybe tomorrow Dwight Eisenhower? General MacArthur? Or Alice B Toklas. Good luck with that "paranoia" thing, Pinky. LOL.
