Congratulations Rob,

I am glad to hear that it is working out for you.

What a bad deal, not only for yourself, but for the fellow that thought he was doing the right thing.

Just glad in the end that this mystery was solved so quickly.

The WIXer's "got your back", bud!

Steve :wink:

Great news Rob !!!

Glad to hear that Dan is a stand up guy. Also feel for him if he was taken advantage of.

As for the parties responsible for all this mess, they need to be flogged with a 3ft peice of garden hose.

Great news that it's been located Rob. I hope whomever was responsible for perpetrating this heinous deed is brought to justice. I can only hope that the gentleman who has the cockpit now is able to recover at least some of what he spent. I have little hope he'll recover any of the transportation costs, but hopefully he'll at least recover whatever he paid the perp.

I'm glad to see things are going in the right direction. Justice will eventually be served, I hope.

I look forward to hearing more about this story shortly. I wish I could say that I helped. It would make a great story to tell... :oops:

Cheers,

David

It was obvious from the start that the real culprits were probably Hillary, John Kerry and Al Gore.

Quit trying to deflect the blame from Obama and Edwards.


Can we please let the Vince Foste rthing go?

There have been three official investigations into Foster's death, all of which concluded that he committed suicide.

The first was by the United States Park Police, in whose jurisdiction the original investigation fell. Due to Foster's position in the White House, the Federal Bureau of Investigation assisted in the investigation. Investigations by a coroner and Independent Counsel Robert B. Fiske also concluded that Foster had committed suicide. Conspiracy theories of a cover-up still persisted. After a three-year investigation, Whitewater independent counsel Kenneth Starr released a report also concluding that the death was a suicide.

If that jackass Ken Starr couldn't find anything, nothing was there to find. Depression is a real badass, I have it. I can totally imagine him eating a bullet in a fit of depression. DC is a real pressure cooker and Foster was made to bake.

Gary H, I don't know about this Foster guy, is he the one the beer is named after? As for Vince, oh yea!! He ran like a Spitfire flys. Nobody ever had a better game than he did to defeat USC for the national championship. We might have had another one if he had stayed his senior year.
If you are good I may tell you the tactics and logistic story of how I combined with those three to spirit away the cockpit.

I knew you were. I should have put some smileys in there--I was thinking more in terms of hearing Rush whine about it ten years after the fact. I mean my god. If KEN STARR couldn't find anything...That man could find the dog turd in a swimming pool filoled with chocolate pudding... :P
