Sure....a great guy, until you try to take some of his top secret paperwork out of that briefcase handcuffed to his arm.
 j/k - great guy! Sure will be nice when he gets a chance to settle down again in comfort and get back to helping people, and spreading info like he used to before all h*** broke loose down there. -Perry |

Joaco:
One of my business partners does weather modification (seeding the leading edges of storms with crystals causing the storms to expend themselves before they get to major croplands) in Argentina and elsewhere all over the world. Weather Modification, Inc. He is owed a TON of money in Argentina, which of course hasn't been forthcoming for the past 18 months. Now, he is hearing from the Argentinians that payment may soon be coming. Are things inproving? |

Hey guys! it has been a long time since I last logged in at RL.
Life kept me busy this past years, but all is kinda back to normal. I'm just waking up this old post, to remember my friend Chris Cull (ccull). He was a GREAT guy. I went to visit him in Houston (there we met in person the first time), and after that, he came down to Argie twice. He was going to move down, family and all. Yep, believe it or not. To make a long story short, he decided to go to Iraq as a civilian advisor, before moving down here. His tour there was finished after some 18 months I think, he was going home to pick up his stuff and move down here. He never made it back home  His convoy to the airport was ambushed and there where no survivors, he died 3 days before Christmas 2005. He has been far from home for about year and a half, was returning home for the Holidays but never made it back. While he was here visiting me twice, he met my friend Andrew. Well, Chris though I was  ...but when he met Andrew, he confirmed it It turns out Andrew moved to Germany, and he also passed away. He died involved in a car accident, caused by a drunken driver. So Chris and Andrew, may you both rest in peace. I just wanted to remember you here, since you both posted a few times. Joaco |
