Well, Don, you caught us. Here we were, thinking no one would ever catch on to our diabolical schemes, but we didn't count on your keen intellect. We would have gotten away with it, too, if not for you meddling kids!
Yep, the Apollo thing - my fault. See, when we made all those models, at first we made a "film" of the command module actually landing on the moon, and so we put up that sign at the Smithsonian to explain the dust. But then Lisa (yeah, she's in on this too - all the moderators are) noticed that the CM doesn't really have any landing gear. Or descent engines. And that made it hard to explain the purpose of the LEM anyway. So we took the sign down, and hoped no one noticed our little gaff. But we couldn't pull that one over on you. All our hours of work with scissors and super-8 film, foiled by one 12 year old kid!
And Elvis? No doubt you've caught on that he's not really dead - most of the supermarket tabloids have figured out our plot on that one. We kidnapped him so he could kill JFK for us. I know, I know, the history books say that JFK was killed in 1963, and Elvis died in 1977, but we print the history books down here in our secret lair, so "fixing" that was no problem.
Then there was that whole Bin Laden thing. I mean, the history books all say we gave him billions of dollars in the '80s so he (and the mujahideen) could fight the communists in Afghanistan, but come on - do you really think the US government could be that dumb, to send weapons and money to fanatic guerillas who don't really like the US? Instead, it all went to keeping the Reagan/Madonna affair secret. Of course we kept a little cut for ourselves. And if anyone ever threatens to spill the beans on us - we have the tapes, and believe me, they ain't pretty.
And while hatching secret conspiracy plots can get tiring, at least it's fun in the lair. We still have Elvis here, although he's getting a little long in the tooth, and between him, Jim Morrison and Janis Joplin we have quite the band down here. The evil clone gets scared when Janis sings (her voice has gotten even rougher, if you can believe that) but other than that, they're a pretty decent oldies band.
BTW, ever look closely at the members of the Flying Elvi? Ever notice one who looks just a little _too_ much like an overweight, 67 year old version of the King? After watching Quade's 4-way videos for about the millonth time he finally gave skydiving a shot, and seems to actually have a knack for it.
Bill,
Leesten vary carefully... I vill say zees only once.
This Mr. Don has rumbled us, there is no telling how far it has got! It may be neccessary to arrange an "accident", but what sort of accident?
Now, no offence bill, but car crashes are OUT. You've already done it to death (excuse the pun) with James Dean, Chappaquiddick (stupid scenario - even if we were laying bridge when we were thinking it up) and the Diana / Dodi matter was particularly il-conceived. What if the papparrazzi had kept taking photos?!!!
Likewise the "Shot by Mysterious Malcontent" scenario is loking a bit tired. OK, it worked for JFK, I'm pretty sure that Martin Luther and James Earl are still shacked up, but bear in mind that it didn't work for Reagan and that's why Maddy had to cancel her "Overdose". BTW, how is Elvis? Is he still on that Vegetarian kick? Personally I think his nut cutlet and salad recipe tastes like it's already been processed by another herbivore's digestive system.
I suppose that we could always invite him out to Area 51. Perhaps once he learns that it's actually the biggest (and most private) DZ in the world he might "come around" to our way of thinking. Maybe that and a private concert by Buddy? Maybe a live show with a bit of Hendrix and Marley's new RaggaeRock would help?
(If he does prove "malleable" please remind him NOT to log his 4-way jumps out of our Blackbird). Apparently some of our guests have been logging 6 minutes of freefall and 200 points. This takes a bit of explaining when other skydivers look at their jump logs).
If that doesn't work, then I suppose we'll just have to get him announced as a replacement crew member for our manned Mars landing. Do you think that the public would swallow "He parachuted down from the Mars Lander to recce the landing site and the lander "landed" on him" scenario?
While I'm here, How are JFK and Marilyn? Last time I spoke to him he had a bit of a headache.
I'll not sign this in case someone else out there reads this.

Great! But watch out with givin' away all the secrets.
We wouldn't want those conspiracy theory freaks to figure out the truth, would we?
Don't worry... I have a cunning plan.
BillVon is going to print up a book which proves that all the current "conspiracy theories" are in fact being circulated by the US Government as part of a massive cover-up. This way, next time we drop one of our flying saucer WDIs anyone who sees it will assume that it's just part of the disinformation campaign.
That should keep the public from the truth about Martin Luther and James Earl being lovers, or about Madonna and Ronald Reagan - getting her married to that Brit was good disinformation, but I think we went a bit over the top having the guy on the bagpipes play "Like a Virgin" when she came to Scotland - I mean, who's going to believe that. As for JFK and Marilyn shacking up in Canada (please tell them to STOP working as extras on the "X-Files), I suppose that all worked out but we were lucky getting George and Barbara to adopt thir illegitimate child. Still, it's nice to see "Dubya" following in his dad's footsteps but I do wish he would stay the hell away from Dallas. It's just that sort of thing that might let the public catch on. He sure has his mother's brains.
As for Elvis, come on, it was brilliant! Who would suspect us of taking a fading vegetarian rock singer, putting him in an inflatable jumpsuit, gradually blowing it up so everybody thought he was overeating, then faking his death so his record royalties would allow us to form the Starbucks Empire? Incidentally, I still think the name "Starbucks" was something of a dead giveaway!
How is Deano? Is he still repairing and selling Porsches?
How is Osama getting on? Has he settled down in our caves? I suppose he'll feel quite at home there. When you see him give him our apologies and explain we'll get him out once Dubya has shifted blame onto the Osmonds like he was supposed to in the first place. Once that's in place we should be able to expand our Area 51 Dropzone a good few miles Eastwards - certainly enough to cover Jessica's dodgy spotting from the Blackbird.
While I'm on, see the next time we're doing CReW over New Mexico, Please tell SkyBytch to leave her "mysterious green light" flashlamp behind! I'm getting a bit tired of flapping about under my Triathlon muttering "take me to you leader" while you stand in front of the locals in your black jumpsuit wearing the Ray-Ban Predators and pointing your hook-knife at them.
Regards,
Mike D01270.

Well Mr. Von,
It has become excrutiatingly clear to me that you and your cronies here on Dropzone.com are not interested in "serious" discussion but prefer to satirize serious subjects.
"To each his own".
That's my motto.
I admit that I find it unfortunate that in my quest to find a more serious type skydiving forum,Mr. Von, my stop at www.dropzone.com didn't measure up.
Oh well,
I'll continue the search .
I truly hope that Andy finds the keys to a peaceful life and that the bruises to that young ladys' jaw/ psyche heal in time.
With all that said and as the sun sets in the west, I bid you a fair *adieu * Mr.s Von, Quade , and Indyz.
Fair Winds and Unlimited Ceilings for all of you and all of my fellow skydivers,

"Didn't measure up?" I love it! On a different forum you posted:
"As I have posted before I enjoy being antagonistic or
argumentative solely for the purpose of arguing. The intended purpose of my postings are for my own entertainment .They are not meant to be informative or enlightening. They may not even be factual. . . .
If, for some reason you are not offended, please write me with a description of yourself including your name, race, weight, religious views, political party, strong opinions, physical disabilities, weird sexual preferences, or anything else that you are touchy about, and I will try to offend you in a future post."
So if, by your leaving, I take it that you were unable to sufficiently offend us, good luck in finding people with thinner skins somewhere else on the net. Perhaps a far right (or far left) political board somewhere - those people seem to take themselves _quite_ seriously.

Sigh. I really wish you'd quit implicating me in the boss... err I mean these grandious schemes, bill. I've built a pretty good front... err I mean life for myself here. I'd like to keep it.

And Jim is still really, really sexy. Wait. Um. I didn't say that.
Nevermind.
He built a really crude bomb,"
No Mr Indys, The bomb that brought down the Murrow Building was a DEVASTATING bomb .
A Bomb that destroyed several buildings ,killed many people and impacted the lives of many others for ever! A bomb that forever changed life in these United States!
That bomb was one of the first terroristic acts which started the populace thinking about trading away their Constitutional Rights for the promise of security.
No Mr Indys, The Bomb that Mr Mc'veigh supposedly constructed may appear crude to the ignorant, non thinking layman, however let me tell you that the Bomb that Timothy Mc'Veigh supposedely constructed was a very "smart" bomb!

I supose we're arguing semantics, but I was taught how to build that exact bomb (diesel and fertalizer) in my grade 7 chemistry class. In fact, we built one, then took it out to the school yard and detonated it.
You may or may not want to call it crude, but it certainly was not complex.

That is a term the Amish use to describe a member of the community who has acted way out of the bounds of the society.
No court trial, no jury , no nothin',... just shunned.
The person just isn't noticed or recognized.

I believe dropzone.com is a fairly serious skydiving web site. I've found none better. From your posts though, it didn't seems as if you were actually looking for a discussion about skydiving.
Sorry to disappoint you in that we could not provide you with enough excellent entertainment. You have your disclaimer and I have mine. Currently it's at the bottom of my signature.

Oh And I have no doubt that you are exactly right Paul.. Did some one say *Boobies*????
"I've found none better. From your posts though, it didn't seems as if you were actually looking for a discussion about skydiving. "
Well Mr Quade, I did come to the forum looking for a discusion about skydiving when I noticed a thread which you yourself had started.
Knowing your name and credibility I clicked on that thread expecting some serious skydiving discussion.
Alas! This was not to be!
I'm afraid I was sucked into a discussion about conspiracy theorist and theories. And by a moderator no less!
Whoa is me!;>)
Well Paul it seems that another moderator has now challenged me to live up to my disclaimer and attempt to offend the good pierced and printed people on Dropzone.com!
Not my style! It would be like shooting ducks on the water!
No Paul ,what Mr. Von seems to have missed is that I was over here playing nicely and having a genuinely good time.
If it's alright with the greenies and the HH I think I'll stick my head in here every now and then and attempt to be offensive in a civil manner !LOL!
Oh well how ever it goes,

I think you'll find that some of us were on rec.skydiving long before most people came around to the net and have subsequently formed our own opinions about your style.
You're more than welcome on Dropzone.com. Same rules apply to you over here as to everyone else. Break them and it'll be like shooting a duck on water for me!

You have interpreted my response correctly, although I wouldn't call Timothy McVeigh a "mastermind."
He built a really crude bomb, put it in a truck that he rented with a cheap fake ID, and parked it outside a building. He left bomb residue on his clothes, fingerprints on receipts for ammonium nitrate fertilizer, phone cards that showed his path, and, yes, he drove a car that didn't have license plates.
The police catch hardened killers every day, killers who are carrying weapons that choose not to use them. Remember, McVeigh probably thought that he was just going to get a ticket for driving without plates. Then he'd just disappear. By the time he was caught with the gun, he knew he was going to jail but didn't think he would be connected with the bombing. Then he would just get out on bail and skip town. The cops just got lucky.
I also cannot find one single reference to ATF agents sweeping the compound the morning before the blast. I would appreciate it if you could point one out to me.
