  1. Two of my credit cards were hacked last spring, one of them was used in Mexico, one in Texas. I obviously am being attacked by supporters of both sides of the issue.
  2. I've heard that skipping meals/days tends to make the body want to store fat to "make it through" the lean periods.
  3. Having several friends with severely autistic children, I would say an effective treatment for that would be great news.
  4. Got me. Talk about one of those days when NOTHING worked right... the Bucs now know that feeling. Ouch.
  5. I looked it up. Proposition 13 capped property taxes unless 2/3 majority voted to pass the increase. Also limited value increases to 2 percent per year
  6. Another accident from the same presentation, looks to be a somewhat bigger plane.
  7. From the Paulding Northwest airports own site: As stated, that rating is Maximum ramp weight, i.e. The static weight of a mission aircraft determined by adding operating weight, payload, flight plan fuel load, and fuel required for ground turbine power unit, taxi, runup, and takeoff.
  8. I hate videos, so will take you at your word. I stand corrected.
  9. More Hearsay. Or do you have a reference for that statement? The FAA can make a ruling, but the Laws of Physics determines what can land there safely. As I pointed out before: Cartersville: Dimensions: 5760 x 100 ft. / 1756 x 30 m Surface: asphalt/grooved, in good condition Weight bearing capacity: Single wheel: 26.0 McCollum Field: Dimensions 6295 ft x 100 ft / 1919 m x 30 m Surface Bituminous Concrete (grooved), Good Condition Weight Bearing Capacity Single wh
  10. I think you are talking about "Dual". Not a movie that's I'd watch over and over, but like stradial said, I'd watch it every 10 years or so.
  11. Hate shopping but enjoy the Appalachian Grill!!
  12. Duct tape is like the force --- it has a light side, a dark side and it holds the universe together.
  13. And another. History of the World (Part 1) - Watched it as a teenager in the early 80s. Watched it again this year and remembered why I never want to see it again. Only Mel Brooks film I've seen that I can't stand.
  14. If there are ever 737s flying in that airport, we'll have more than noise to worry about as the crash when the wheels punch through the runway that is only rated for about 80% of the lightest 737 weight will be all over the news.
  15. Interesting, going to have to see that one. I had read the Arthur Hailey novel "Runway Zero Eight" which was the print version of the plot, but it didn't have the "War story" angle in it. I had never heard of Zero hour.
  16. Pulp Fiction. Luckily we quit 45 minutes in because it made no sense and didn't waste two hours (though we considered the $5.00 rental wasted)
  17. Well that explains why Paulding *isn't* working.... trust is at an all time low here.
  18. Jerry lost my vote and support when he lied to us here on Pcom about the fire tax.
  19. Love that book. I think I only read the first 3 or so, gotta finish the series one of these days... I really liked the scene at the restaurant with the "Time Turbines".
  20. Dang. Wish I was in town, we love having office swivel chairs for our deer stands!
  21. How many of those 10,000 are anywhere near the ends of the runway? Very few from the pictures I've seen. Someone 3 miles perpendicular to the runway will not even know it's there. Before you ask how I know: I spent most of my teenage and college years, and my dad still lives, just 1.86 miles off the west end McCollum airport in Kennesaw. You'd never know the airport was there unless you are outside when a plane goes by on final and it doesn't keep you from talking. From 2 to 16, I lived 1.55 miles to the North of the runway and we never heard a plane that was near the airport
  22. LOL, to combine threads, asking the NFL to investigate one of their big money draws is the same as asking the police to investigate their confiscation of cash that they get to keep. Ain't gonna happen.
