GLIDER

Dennis and I loaded up a white water raft and all the gear, and headed to the Ocoee river. After driving from Nashville to the dam at the head of the Ocoee, The TVA cut the water off at the dam. We began to drive home, and noticed some gliders flying at Unionville. I had never flown, and feeling adventurous we stopped. They agreed to take us up and we were excited. The glider used for this purpose was a world war two trainer. It had dual controls and most importantly a pilot that set in the back seat. The glider had wheels on front and back that were recessed, The old tail dragger pulled the butt dragger into the air. When we reached 6,000 ft. the pilot instructed me to release the rope; I asked if he was sure? He said he was sure we couldn't land with the rope attached, so I pulled the release. The pilot told me to look for thermals, my response was what do they look like. He told me to look at the altimeter, I did and we were falling like a rock. He told me not to make sharp turns, and we could find a thermal over a pond or parking lot. We finally found one and it pushed us up, we made a large circle like a buzzard and we were gaining altitude. It was nice circling with only the wind whistling and looking at the small objects below. Soon the Piper Cub came to signal our time was up. The pilot said we needed to land, I could control the wings, and he would handle the stick. As we approached the runway there was a fence. We looked like we were going to hit so I held the stick. The pilot with panic in his voice told me to turn the stick loose. My response was not until we cross the fence, there is plenty room on the other side. The pilot said we can't go back around. We landed safely and it was an adventure the pilot will never forget.

GRUNDY COUNTY INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT

A new international airport in Grundy County would solve all our terrorist problems. Metal detectors and image scanners would not be necessary. Hire local personnel for determining if passengers have business here. They would interview each passenger, and ask questions like; Who you kin too? You plan to stay after dark? Ackmed; Don't sound like you from around here! Them rattlers will determine if you really have religion. Them snakes make you wet your powder? NEXT

ALLEGEDLY

Our alleged President, is not convinced Umar Farouk Abdulmutallsb is a terrorist. Even though his father turned him in to authorities, he trained in Yemen, and had the same powder sewn in his underwear as the shoe bomber. All that is circumstantial, he might have been working on a cure for aids. Let's make him a citizen, and treat him as such, he could be the next Nobel Peace Prize recipient. The world would love us if we had two Peace Prize winners with dual citizenship.

TERRORIST

We have declared war on terrorism, but you couldn't tell it by the way we fight. The way we currently fight terrorism, is like stomping fire ants. We are defensive as we react to a terrorism threat. We shut the barn door after the horses are out, and don't do a good job at that. We are at war, and should abide by the rules provided in the Geneva Convention. Being politically correct, and not profiling is stupid in a time of war. Giving foreign combatants the same rites and privilege's that Americans have earned is treasonous. The way to end terrorism is to cut off the money that provides for its perpetuation. If we would drill our own oil, and gas and use the abundance of coal we have, the terrorist would eat sand and die. If we don't want to be killed like infidels, we should not act like infidels.

COOLING TOWERS

Have you noticed all the major networks even FOX has cooling towers, and smoke stacks on the same film depicting pollution. The white smoke emitted from cooling towers is clean water vapor, this is not polluting the atmosphere. It concerns me that people that make laws, and went to the elite schools with ivy covered walls, don't know the difference in a smoke stack and a cooling tower. The cooling towers are shaped like hour glasses, and are associated with nuclear plants. All nuclear plants don't use this type cooling tower, and even some coal facilities use this type. This type cooling tower was built in AL Gore's adopted home county and never used, I am surprised someone touted as being smart has not spoken out against using cooling towers to sensationalize pollution.

LIMP WRIST

Our limp wristed liberal foreign policy, poses a grave danger to the United States of America. When Iran finishes building it's nuclear bomb, with the help of Russia and China. Oil prices will increase, this will give the Russians the cash they need to rebuild their military. The United States economy will falter, and China will own the country. We could stop this dooms day scenario by drilling our own oil, quit spending money we don't have, and repay money that has been stolen from the taxpayer. We should support Israel, and let them take care of the threat from Iran. The missile defense system should be implemented in Poland, and any other place that will protect America and it's allies. The United States is running out of time and cheeks.

SCAM-WOW!!!!

Our new health care proposal will cover everyone, It doesn't matter how you got here, or your status, you are covered. In the new system everyone will be treated the same, a wart on your finger will have the same urgency as a brain tumor. The new health care will save or create many jobs, Ameri-Corps will be the new candy stripper's, Acorn worker's can rub peoples hands to remove warts, and Japanese chef's can preform surgery with their sharp knifes. Fifty million new people will be enrolled in this program, and it will make money for the government. That's not all, the politicians and aids in Washington have exempted themselves from this fine program, to help us save even more money. Send no money now, you and your offspring will be billed later for taxes, and handling.

COOK COUNTY

Initially the county was named for Daniel Cook, this has changed, the county is known as the adopted home town of our President. This may be the county where our president learned to Cook The Books. Climategate exposed many talented people that can now work for the administration. These people were so successful making Global Warming believable the President can use them to convince the people 10% is less than 8%. The Democrat Health Care reform will save money. More government is what the Country needs. Making friends with the world will protect us from terrorism. These people have produced Oscar,s and Nobel Prizes, you could have a home town like Chicago.

TIGER

Tiger's wife needs a better caddy, she should have used a driver instead of a three iron. I am very disappointed with Jessie Jackson and Al Sharpton, it is apparent that Tiger has been discriminating against black women. Where is the outrage?
