  1. Yes he did and yes I am. One game in 2007, Owings went 4 for 4 and was the winning pitcher... that was exciting.
  2. The combined balance sheet does show the value of assets related to Gunnison broken out seperately. Indiana is NOT shown. Didn't they sell off the Rome City property? Headquarters, The Way of the USA, International Outreach and Gunnison are each shown seperately then combined on that combined balance sheet. My interpretation, without additional detail from their records, would be that any properties (in the US) owned outsite of New Knoxville (like maybe houses in Cedar Rapids or Toledo, etc) would be in the Way of the USA (except for Gunnison), any in Canada or any other country would be in the International Outreach. This filing with the Arizona Corporation Commission does NOT include a statement of revenue and expenditures/expenses. So, there is no way to clearly identify what they took in by way of ABS. It shows accrued payroll (a liability) and accrued pension liability, but no detail as to how many people are involved in those aggregate amounts. Gunnison assets ARE included with a book value (it's very difficult to read, so this is only approximate) of $3.4 million (net of accumulated depreciation on buildings, equipment and machinery). Perhaps you were looking only at the CURRENT assets, which total approx $68K. Long term assets (for Gunnison) are listed at $3,430,247.06.
  3. To find out what each listing at the Dun and Bradstreet site means, one would have to pay money to look at the reports...
  4. Then they should go after Micah Owings... he could be had from the Reds for a lot less than CC in free agency...

    45 years ago

    I wonder that too... especially wondering what our involvement in Vietnam would have been had he lived. I was in 4th grade at Sacred Heart (Catholic) School in Rochester, NY. It was a sunny day but we were old enough to feel the shock and sadness.
  6. Sounds like we won't have to try...
  7. I agree... all except for that ugly wad of 'baccy in his mouth in that last pic...
  8. The 9th corps list? The answer is YES. Okay, I'll clarify... it starts with the initial housing list from Sept 5, 1978, has some added (who finished with the 9th but didn't start with the 9th) and also has names crossed off (those who didn't graduate). I am on the list but crossed off, because I didn't graduate.
  9. I'm looking at a list of 9th corps and there are only two persons on it with the initials LR and both are female.
  10. This kind of bird? Or this one? or THIS one?
  11. I think the fires are NW of LA...

    Witness to Jonestown

    I think you DO know... I think you hit the nail on the head... of course, I'm no professional on the topic.
  13. Well, Webb got more than 20 wins... and Lincicum did NOT... but the Gints didn't give Timmy boy quite as much support as Webb got... Which goes hand in hand with its converse, having no hesitation calling your best friend out on a very close play...
  14. And it IS now official for Cliff Lee. He HAS been crowned the AL Cy Young winner.

    Witness to Jonestown

    No they cannot. At the time of the Jonestown incident, the US military had bigger cargo aircraft than the C-131. These included the C-130 Hercules (equipped with 4 turboprop engines), the C-141 Starlifter (equipped with 4 jet engines), and a limited number of C-5 (at that time the world's largest cargo plane). The C-5 could carry what you claimed. But even the C-141 was substantially smaller than that. C-131 pics I believe this is comparable to TWIs Ambassador ONE aircraft.

    Witness to Jonestown

    Not to be outdone by MSNBC, CNN will air a two hour special, "Escape from Jonestown" a few times... the first of which will be 9-11pm Thursday (today already for many readers...). Thanks for the link, Excie...
  17. I think of the expression, "absurd juxtaposition."
  18. And I'll STILL call him "Lush Rimbaugh."
  19. I'm pretty sure that on my mother's side there are several of those types... they are from northern Arkansas, probably from back before the Civil War, but I did trace my maternal grandfather's line back to Germany in the 1700s... and on my dad's side, my grandparents came from Italy around the time of WWI.
  20. NO! That's NOT just you! I prefer to call him LUSH Rimbaugh... after all, he IS an ADDICT. And Olbermann calls him "Comedian Rush Limbaugh." And let's not forget BILLO the CLOWN.
  21. You've gotten several (gracious) replies, but I'm thinking that those who replied are NOT decedents. I'm figuring (and from the replies it looks like people were assuming) you meant "descendants." For I'm certain that any decedents would NOT REALLY be welcome to visit the good ol' greasespot cafe. :)
  22. That WAS quite eloquent on his part, wasn't it!
  23. And the NL Cy Young goes to ..... Tim Lincecum. Webb comes in 2nd in the vote. :(
  24. Why would you feel the need to apologize for inserting your opinion? I don't think anyone is going to be offended that you stated your case...
