Well, after I much delay (on my part) I have everything together (and now apart). I have pictures of the bike with special thanks to Profile and many members of Slowtwitch for getting this all together. But, my Kodak camera with the photos on it has a dead battery that is currenly charging. For time time being I am posting the clothing items that will be with the bike…the helmet is cracked though and it will not ship (I was wondering why someone sent a new looking Atmos lid…cracked…LOL, thank you never the less to the person who sent it).
The walls are white, I like the Fig tree, the trim is Oak, I like the carpet and the chair was custom made for me when I got my house.
Dude, you rock on putting this together. From what I can tell, this package is put together with a bike out of contributions from people and you give it away to a marine who would otherwise not be able to put the package together from his own funds? That being the case, what an incredibly generous thing to do on your part, as well as the others. You’re a good guy. Do you post as to other ‘stuff’ you might need (other than the broken helmet), and do you build a new package every season?
Also, if you have any kids at your place, you’ll want to tie up that chord that hangs down from your blinds by the chair. Kids will play on that chair and get that tied around their neck. Leading cause of death for kids- home accidents and poisons.
And kudos to all who donated stuff for the effort!
It’d be nice if we could do this (or something similar) for all the injured troops (or all the troops, period!) but then I recall a story about a little girl picking up starfish and tossing them back into the sea…
appearing to help out Marines out of the goodness of your heart by putting this bike together and then you post such garbage in the lavender room about LETTING THEM ALL DIE IN NEW ORLEANS. What the fuck is wrong with you, you need fucking help, you are an unstable ASSHOLE and if the Marine that you are sending this bike to was to read what you posted in the Lavender room im sure that he would send it back and say NO THANKS, your a FUCKING EMBARRASEMENT to society and this board and I cant believe that in a time of need that you find the time to post such garbage. And yes you did post a couple of hours later how you donated money but the damage has been done with your true thoughts in the post.
Ouch… what did I miss?!
Dearest Mr. Heavy. Please keep things like this in the lavender room where it belongs. I rarely…or never, agree with Mr. Carbon but admire him for keeping TSR…or actually turning TSR into something real. If you would like to call him out do so in the other thread please.
Do you think Chip is that uncompassionate that he wants these people to die? I know him well. I could have told you without reading further into what he has typed, that he is trying to make a point about people making responsible decisions. Then following these decisions and living with the consequences. You are responsible for your actions. What he is angry about is the fact they are not only having to evacuate elderly and sick people from hospitals, but also perfectly capable adults that had every opportunity to leave town. Why should we waste our time trying to get them? They had the opportunity to leave. The people in the hospital did not. Do he really think they should die? Use your head of course he doesn’t. His comments may come across as brash. Yet, human nature says save them. But, should they be near the front of the line at all? So quit with the foul mouth. It does no good. That talk is just as wasteful.

You floydie made your point with a reasoned, measured argument. record continuously makes his points in an inflammatory, rambling, shallow, arrogant, hateful, selfish manner. The point isn’t so much the validity of the argument. Even idiotic, psychopathic, racist, certifiable morons make a valid point once in a while. No one wants to hear his sophomoric opinions. If you do indeed know him well, I suggest you try to calm the demons and hate that so evidently rage within his overtasked brain.

Thanks for taking the lead on this Chip, did he get both sets of the Javelin uniforms?
Oh, and I rarely visit the Lavendar room, so I have no idea of what others are posting, but helping this guy out is important to me, as a former desert storm campaign vet myself
