Unintentional Glider

A really Nice Airplane called a Piper Malibu lost its propeller in one of the hardest high mountain airports and the pilot made a safe landing back at the airport.

Pilot lands safely after propeller falls off Eight-mile glide complicated by oil on windshield

A pilot managed to land safely after the propeller fell off his plane and oil splattered the windshield.

Barry Cox had to glide eight miles and navigate without being able to see out of the windshield before landing smoothly at Aspen-Pitkin County Airport on Wednesday.

“(Cox) just did a tremendous job,” said the airport’s assistant aviation director, David Ulane. “Not only did he land without a propeller, he wasn’t able to see out the front. . . . It’s one of the more tremendous things I’ve seen.”

Cox, his daughter and two acquaintances were 10 minutes into a 110-mile flight to Denver International Airport in a single-engine Piper Malibu when oil splashed across the windshield and he heard a loud boom.

This is just an outstanding job by the pilot Barry Cox.

 

“Barry (Cox) was so calm about it,” said friend and passenger Stan Cheo, of Woody Creek. “He pulled off an amazing stunt. He’s an incredible pilot.”

Agreed

Could it be true

Mike Hucabee and John McCain are not likeing Mitt Romney

Well, If they say it, it must be true.

Mike Huckabee says John McCain is a hero. McCain says Huckabee is a good man. And they both seem to agree on this: Mitt Romney is neither.

And I believe them.

Record Industry Goes After Personal Use

it is illegal for someone who has legally purchased a CD to transfer that music into his computer.

They reduced the quality and capabilities when the technology came out (deigned life) so that they can sell the same record/CD again. if they fixed that then Maybe I might agree.

 

And we can Time shift our music.

But lawyers for consumers point to a series of court rulings over the last few decades that found no violation of copyright law in the use of VCRs and other devices to time-shift TV programs; that is, to make personal copies for the purpose of making portable a legally obtained recording.

Bill will only be a support like all spouses

Bill Clinton Won’t Attend NSC Meetings in a Hillary White House

 

“I think he would play the role that spouses have always played for presidents,” said Clinton, in an exclusive interview with ABC News’ George Stephanopoulos. “He will not have a formal, official role, but just as presidents rely on wives, husbands, fathers, friends of long years, he will be my close confidante and adviser as I was with him.”

I told you She wares the paints in the family, while he is getting into the other interns…

 

Throughout her presidential campaign, Clinton has repeatedly said she would send President Clinton around the world on the United States’ behalf as a roving ambassador, and today reiterated her intention to do so, calling the former president “the most popular person in the world.”

Because he we a simpleton pile of crap on America.

Let a liberal become president

Looking at the goings on the the straw polls and the lack of any good strong candidate for the republican nomination I make this simple small prediction:

I was not surprised when n I saw this

“Banking on Becoming President”

Socialists

Billary Clinton  has raised a total raised of $90,935,788 with $2.3 million of debt

Barack Hussan Obama has a total raised of $80,256,427 with $1.4 million of debt

I see both of these as being a disaster for America over all and short lived (if elected).

 

Fake Conservatives

Mitt has a total raised of $62,829,069 with $17.3 million of debt

Rudy has raised on $47,253,521 and only borrowed $169 k of debt

John McCaint has raised $32,124,785 with $1.7 million in debt

Fred has only Raised $12,828,111 with $678k in debt

The other candidates are not even on the board with and that pisses me off.

I like Duncan Hunter(($1.8m)  & Ron Paul ($8.2m) but think there is no one in this group that can or will will against the two socialists.

 

The biggest issue I see with Mitt is he is a liberal in republican clothing and he is not even conservative in his campaign dollars…already in debt.

 

With this disastrous field we need to focus on getting a majority back in the house and increasing the ability to stop the socialists before they can destroy America.

 

This Marine will supporting ………………….I don’t know yet…

Maybe we will be able to display how bad socialism really is if Billary really does win..will we last 4 years? Lord Help us…

Christmas Day

In trying to look forward to Christmas Day and not at the recent loss our family has had I cooked 2 13 pound of Prim Ribs.  Tonight I am looking at only a small chunk left over…damn Nephew….

 

While the PR was cooking I went out ….

 

 

and plowed some snow. It was the first White Christmas in several years.

After I made a range into a hill and made packed the snow down a little I shot my new Bow from one the best sisters around.

 

The snow was cold so I only shot about 48 arrows.  It was really cool and I can’t wait to go hunting with it soon…

Help those less fortunate

I recently had my father pass away after 2 years struggling with Mesotheloma

We had a large number of the most caring people in Colorado. If you can this Christmas give to you local Hospice so they can support people that need the support but can’t pay for it.

Here is where I am donating too.

Welcome to The Denver Hospice and our circles of care. As the region’s leading hospice since 1978, we provide an unprecedented level of expert, comprehensive and personalized care. From programs to promote comfort and manage pain, to counseling and support for families and friends, nowhere else will you find such a continuous circle of the most compassionate group of experts dedicated to one greater purpose – you.

Give to your local Hospice as they are all the best people I have ever known…

Thanks too all

Stupid City news(spin)paper crap

The NYT wants to make everyone belie that dogs in Iraq are the same as dogs in the us.

New York Times in Iraq: “Blackwater shot our dog”

 

BAGHDAD (Reuters) - The U.S. embassy in Iraq is investigating another deadly shooting incident involving its Blackwater bodyguards — this time of the New York Times’s dog.

Staff at the newspaper’s Baghdad bureau said Blackwater bodyguards shot Hentish dead last week before a visit by a U.S. diplomat to the Times compound.

Blackwater spokeswoman Anne Tyrrell said the dog had attacked one of Blackwater’s bomb-sniffer dogs while a security team was sweeping the compound for explosives.

“The K-9 handler made several unsuccessful attempts to get the dog to retreat, including placing himself between the dogs. When those efforts failed, the K-9 handler unfortunately was forced to use a pistol to protect the company’s K-9 and himself,” she said in an e-mail to Reuters.

The U.S. embassy employs about 1,000 armed Blackwater staff to protect American diplomats in Baghdad.

The firm’s role became a serious issue in Iraqi-U.S. relations when its guards opened fire on a Baghdad street in September, killing 17 people. Blackwater says its employees acted lawfully in that incident, which is under investigation.

State Department investigators have made two follow-up visits to the Times compound to investigate the shooting of Hentish, correspondent Alissa Rubin said.

“They were very solicitous and I thought took the incident very seriously,” Rubin said. “It’s not a dog that everyone’s close to in the compound.

“But it’s a dog that’s been around a long time. It lived its whole life there.”

emphasis mine

Dogs in the middle east are NOT, I repeat, are NOT pets like we have in America…

I don’t know about you but I don’t trust the New York Times in America, and I sure don’t trust them in Iraq….

Drink Wine

Why I drink wine:

As Ben Franklin said, ‘In wine there is wisdom, in
beer there is freedom, in water there is bacteria’.

In a number of carefully controlled trials, scientists
have demonstrated that if we drink 1 liter of water
each day, at the end of the year we would have
absorbed more than 1 kilo of Escherichia coli, (E.
coli) bacteria found in feces. In other words, we are
consuming 1 kilo of poop.

However, we do NOT run that risk when drinking wine &
beer (or tequila, rum, whiskey or other liquor)
because alcohol has to go through a purification
process of boiling, filtering and/or fermenting.

Remember: Water = Poop, Wine = Health

Therefore, it’s better to drink wine and talk stupid,
than to drink water and be full of shit. There is no
need to thank me for this valuable information: I’m
doing it as a public service.

Next Coach for CSU

I would like to see my Nephew play for CSU. I could fly to Fort Collins Downtown Airport and hitch a ride to the games..he was talking to Coach Lubick until the day they were let go….

Buffalo Bills Offensive Coordinator Steve Fairchild is a top candidate

 

Former CSU players that also Coached under Sonny would be a good fit. It would be nice to see the staff bet back to talking to the kids. and my Nephew

 

The new C.S.U. head football coach could be announced sometime this week, …..

Steve would be a great choice, and sooner would be better than latter…..

Character assassination

Because the left and the Media hate three things

  • God
  • Guns
  • Girls in clothes

Matthew Murray, 24 was killed by a God fearing, gun tooting, girl with morals they have to find a way to assassinate her in the public. she did not deserve the mud raking that she is going to get from the media.

What she did was a courageous act that saved many many more peoples lives.

 

Also Tuesday, Minneapolis police Sgt. Jesse Garcia said Assam was fired from the Minneapolis force in 1997 for lying during an internal investigation. Sgt. John Delmonico, president of the Police Officers Federation of Minneapolis, said police were investigating a complaint that Assam swore at a bus driver while she was handling an incident on a city bus.

I think Sgt Jesse Garcia should be reprimanded for defaming a former member of the Minneapolis police department.  This is flat out wrong of the Minneapolis police department. the question I have is who cares if she swore at a bus driver or not…how petty.

I think she did a great thing and deserves our respect and support.
