Weekend Open Thread
I’m sitting here waiting for some word out of a courtroom across the country in Multnoma County, Oregon, something besides MCPO’s message “OMG” I just got. So here, play with yourselves.

So glad that an interesting thread has bumped roller derby thread down. Now if Round Ranger, Chevy, or one of the other contenders would show up, that would really be great.
The Round Ranger has slunk off with his bovine bride and is just hoping it will all go away.
Chubbyliar now has a real Wanted ( BOLO) poster out on him and knows better than to act out.
I expect the news from Birdbath will be a bombshell, once the legal shennagins are over its going to be weapons free on his shingles-ridden ass.
And as long as I’m here, in honor of many of TAH’s readers and their (and my) love of Jethro Tull, a little song that I was playing as I was heading “out west” after a lovely (but short) weekend at home:

Three guesses who the “all time loser” might be….
That’s one of my favorite Tull songs.
And yes we do know.
From a favorite Scottish based movie … “There can be only one”.
1000 points for the right answer!
One of the best cult films of the 1980’s–HIGHLANDER!
And they should have stopped after the first one.
Highlander.
Good flick.
Great flick.
That movie and Cindy Lauper bridged the gap between rock’n’roll and professional wrestling.
Oh.
Before I forget.
I went to a ball game yesterday. I had to relieve myself before I went in. In a public port-a-potty.
After I finished, I looked down. My mistake.
I immediately thought of Commander Phil Monkress at All-Points Logistics.
The similarities were uncanny.
My parting shot for this weekend – HERE’S the kind of Soldier I picture Mikey-boy as being, that is, IF he really ever even enlisted!!
Sparky … See hondo for your 1000 Obama Phone points!
Is that a reward or a punishment?
Standard reply: here are your Obamaphone “bonus points”: +1000. Unfortunately, that plus $5 will get you a cup of coffee at Starbucks (or from one of those other overpriced sh!tty coffee shops frequented by our “liberal brethren” for soy lattes, espresso, fappuccinos, and the like – and yes, the spelling “fappuccino” was intentional).
See your local Lifeline program office for that “free” phone. Send future invoices to MCPO NYC USN Ret., as per the above he is the authorizing official.
Ah … Very pithy amigo.
So this ends the “Weekend Open Thread” and it was a good one.
Ta Ta!
Why’s there a single-engine in a field with a confused lady next to it? These are the tough questions, you know.
The plane had a defect in its operator, who managed to land this plane a short time earlier and then took off again without ample fuel to make it to his destination…all it would have take was for the dipstick to look in the tank to realize I was on empty, but he knew better and has tried suing everyone under the sun because of it.
Dear The Empty Fuel Tank,
Are you “a tank half full” or “a tank half empty” kinda’ tank?
Just askin’!
I am more a Tank is running on empty kind of guy apparently… I mean hell, someone tried turning me into a Birdbath in the middle of that womans field. Just cannot catch a break at all.
Master-
you are so evil- making us wait for the whole story- but when you and jonn make ready- am soo waiting for the this whole hamlet(or the Prince) to play out!
Still playing out, Dirt. However, when the time comes, all shall be revealed.
beers at the Green Dragon in Boston? laugh and cheer our brothers victory?
Here’s a little something in honor of your trials and tribulations:

Enjoy!

The picture of the corn fieled crash is not that of a fake CPO from the Pacific Northwest. In that crash, a plane owner from the Midwest suffered an engine-out condition. He had his wife on board with him. Both survived. The woman in the picture is her, the wife of the esteemed pilot from the Midwest.
However, if you click on the link below, you will behold a crash of Bernathian proportions. He was by himself when he ran his A/C out of fuel. Just him and his iPad…. and his 99 cent app.

You can look up the tail# registration, but don’t expect that slimy bastard to register any expensive assets in his own name. If he had anything to lose, it would put an end to his frivolous lawsuits.
“Got Fuel”
How about a caption for that nice photo.
I think that pic would make a great safety poster with this caption:
“DON’T be a FOOL, make sure you have enough fuel!!”

I’m thinking, “When other people run away from stupid, I run toward it!”
or maybe
“Daniel E. Bernath vs. Gravity”
as always-
stay thirsty my friends.
Maybe If he had a TSA-style flaming squirrel to throw in the air, he might not have had to walk so far. Maybe he had his cane handy when he did?
Amazingly, it actually was registered under his own name:
http://flightaware.com/live/flight/N102HA
I think that is an out of date record. Try this one:
http://registry.faa.gov/aircraftinquiry/NNum_Results.aspx?NNumbertxt=102HA
It is, but you can see from the note directly under the registration number on the right that, as least around April 2012, he registered it under his own name. It appears that he re-registered it under his wife’s name eight months after the crash. Interesting that it still apparently has a current airworthiness certification, though the NTSB preliminary report stated that there was “substantial” damage to the airframe. I wonder if that was a repairable set of damages, or if he re-registered a wreck as a flyable airframe.
From a casual look through the FAA database, it does not appear that any flight plans associated with that registration number have been filed since 2012.
Didn’t someone mention once upon a time that a more complete telling of the Tallahassee incident was forthcoming? Or did I just miss it in the mass of everything else?
I’d sure like to hear more about that!
Patiences is a virture which we all must practice.
To hell with that!
Wait.
OK…
There.
I practiced.
Patience, something I wish I could just HURRY MYSELF THE HELL UP and learn!!
I’M BACK!! It wasn’t as bad as last time, and less painful as well. I took one of the pain pills, and it feels like it’s kicking i-*ZAAAAAAAHHHH!*
LOOK, A FLYING FLAMING SQUIRREL! is sumwon inn turbl somewar?
PaInFuL sObRiEtY CoMeTh!!!
Better take another one.
Good to hear from ya, PI! Glad all went well.
Proud…Glad to hear you’re okay. Take care and give it time to heal.
Good to see you made it, amigo. Go get a good night’s sleep and start working on that recovery.
Thanks y’all,it’s not as bad as I thought it would be, now I have to make myself sit still long enough to recuperate!!
You violated the 72 do not visit TAH rule.
You will blow your stitches …
AWWW SHIT!! I figure that you only live once, so you need to enjoy it, thus I went where I like to go, MCPO!!
The real question is: did you see the Light? You did not go into it, but did you see it?
I saw A light, I wonder if it was THE Light? They started me off with an IV and “Piggybacked” an injection into that to help me relax. I drifted off to sleep and soon dreamed I was rumbling with some puke trying to keep me from going to the Doctor! In the dream, I had just taken him down and was choking him out when I woke up to the EKG monitoring my vitals beeping because my pulse was 90-something! My beloved Wife was at my bedside when I woke up, and I told her about it as my pulse went back down to around 60-something which is about normal for me. The light? In my dream as I was taking the bully down, there was a light right above as I was taking him down!
Public Announcement: Daniel A. Bernath STILL accuses THE WRONG MAN of being me. I don’t even fart in his general direction as I watch the trains in Rochelle, Ill, he’s not worth the effort!!
Crash 2013 – NTSB ROI will be public record.
Tallahassee Incident May 2014 – FAA ROI will be public record.
Carry on.
Ohs and nos… you mean it won’t be labeled top secret and put in the same warehouse with the ark of the covenant and alien remains?
I wanna listen to the audio tape while sipping my glass half-full of fuel with an umbrella on top.
I missed something. Did a certain non-CPO type have another “incident”? I couldn’t find an ROI on it. But I had just the barest information.
This page, about halfway down. http://ctflier.com/index.php?/topic/2605-fd-response-letter-to-daniel-barnath-suit/page-3
Thanks, GDC. That turd is a real piece of…work. Want to bet he tries to sue someone over that?
