Mr.Green

I would also like to hear Jerry's tapes or see transcripts. When are you gonna post or link us to these almighty tapes Jerry? This is the third time I've requested it and you have yet to entertain the idea of uploading them to a site where we all can listen. Al we hear is how you're gonna go visit Jo(which sounds like stalking to me). Grow some balls and put the tapes online. Mr. Green

Jerry, stop horsing around and upload the the transcripts or the tapes. As others have stated you can upload the audio to plenty of online sites. Why are you dodging the issue? kinda makes you look like a fraud. You always accuse Jo of being a liar. Be a man, step up to the plate and show us your evidence.

Jerry, how about putting the transcript on here or a link to the conversations. There are plenty of sites to upload your audio to. Let the DZ folks here what you keep talking about. If what you say about Jo is true put it on here for all of us to hear.

Could someone provide me with a link to sluggo's website?

Maybe I should read Blast first. It's going for $7:81

I just found Skyjack on eBay and Amazon. Now all I need to do is sell $21.00 worth of shit so I can buy it.

Skyjack must be a hot item. I took the hour drive into the city. No luck at all. wal-Mart,Target, Borders and a few other stores. I could order it but it might be a couple of months before I return. SOL I guess.

In or about 3 hours I will make the trip into the city(1hour20 minutes)for a doctors appointment. After the appointment I will attempt to locate the Skyjack book. Any suggestions? Wal Mart? Borders? Target? etc...Also just how many posters are refferenced in this book? Will this be worth my money or am I better off reading DZ?

Jo, you know i'm not part of this. I'll keep looking for the smoking gun on my end as I'm sure you will.

Welcome to: http://johnnyringo.com/

i've been interested in the DB Cooper case since I was a kid and first saw the story on the news. Then over the years there were magazine articles, news interviews and even a God awfull movie starring Treat Williams. Probably the best DB Cooper story to hit the headline over the years was when I went to a folk singer concert and a young man named Todd Snider came up on stage and sang a song called "DB Cooper" to an overly enthusiastic crowd. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BIU_0DG_xAU Over the years I've read a few books,watched my share of Unsloved Mysteries shows as well as shows on the History channel and local broadcast. I've watched all the amatuer Sherlock Holmes wannabes throw money in rivers,hike to areas where they think the chute might be etc... but I've never see an internet movement full of knowledge such as this one....DropZone. This forum finds it's way into major news stories on major networks, magazines and even books. The single most important reference for all things Cooper rests here at DZ. I actually have a mystery I'm trying to solve myself here at DZ(no I do not have a Cooper suspect)and I hope the good folk here will help me shed some light. anyway I'm glad I came across this community and I hope more people decide to join up as well.

I was referring to ANYONE who steps up to claim a suspect when I said 'they have to have more than because I say so.' Wasn't thinking of you personally. After all the folks who have claimed to know Cooper or that they WERE Cooper, this is expected. Hey, look. I think The Stalker posted up something back there somewhere. Message to Stalker: Can't say from one side of your mouth you are 'protecting Tina' while saying 'go ahead' to the idea of posting current pictures of her on the internet. Nice attempt at web extortion to become both Tina and the Dormuth family's Official Press Agent. Fortunately they blew you off and probably started hitting WhitePages.com for lawyers. You've missed your calling. You should be the runner boy for a photog with the Enquirer. The usual stuff. Fetch the memory chips for the camera...pick up lunch at McDonald's... gas up the chase car. When you are posting about the stalker, who exactly are you referring to?

Are you guys saying that Gray's book has some factual inacuracies between the covers? If so maybe I should skip the book. The last thing I want to do is spend time reading fiction. This case has always fasinated me, however as always a person needs to weed out the bull shit in order to get down to the meat and tators.

Woud anyone mind giving us who haven't read the book a quick review?

You've got to be fucking kidding, right?! Until we see jump numbers, watch you under canopy and see if you know how to pack...as minimum requirements... your chances of becoming *anything* within THIS community are about as slim as the members of this forum finding that DB Cooper lived to see another day. Not quite true, you can become an outcast almost without trying. No problem

Thanks for the help Vicki and Robert. There just isn't anything but a Caseys where I live which makes it hard to get anything other than gas. Thanks a bunch.

arfuller, I have moved into the 21st century and have been the victim of identity fraud not once but twice! I have since gone green. Green as in cash. The amount of trouble my wife and I had to go through was incredible.

Have you tried a library? As I stated above I do not use credit cards online.

Have you tried a library? Yes I have. No luck there.

Back to Cooper. I can't find the new book anywhere. Does anyone have any suggestions on where to find it. I do not use credit cards online so Amazon is out of the questions. Does anyone have a copy they have read that they would like to sell or let me borrow? I will gladly return the book in the exact condition from which I received. any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated.

johnnyringo, your comment is duly noted. Thanks for your reply. I do NOT know why they are all being so hostile toward you. I have no idea who Ringo is but he has not been a regular in the past. Usually they are very acceptable of newbies, but I don't know what they did with their manners lately. Sorry you have had such a bad experience here. skydivers use dropzone.com for a learning tool. we share advice and try and keep it positive. agree to disagree maybe. i like the db cooper forum and we all can learn new things. the name calling and bashing is usually deleted before you can read it. just not what this site is about. i am surprised that the moderators let it go this far. i would like to see everyone sharing facts, new, old, ridiculous, or even just crazy. you can politely call a cop an asshole, to his face. i myself have left the "retard" comment. some of the comments i have seen on here are personal and malicious. this is not how this site is normally used. IT IS A TOOL FOR LEARNING. While DZ is primarily a skydiver's website/Forum, there is no doubt that the media, bloggers,authors and others have made this site infamous for it's DB Cooper threads.I made some comments that were meant to be funny that rubbed some folks the wrong way and i'm man enough to stand up,take responsibility for and apologize to anyone who was offended. I understand that there will be some posters who will continue to greet me and my supporters with insults like the above posts,however I will move on and hopefully some of my detractors will do the same.

nope, apology not accepted. go back to kindergarden johnnyringo, your comment is duly noted. Thanks for your reply.

After reading all of the recent posts except for Farflungs, I feel the need to chat up this forum a bit. I want to apologize to EVickiW,Ms Orange, smokin99,Farflung and any other poster who I may of offended with my recent posts. The language contained in my posts were mean spirited and I am very sorry about that. I hope you all give me a second chance at becoming an integral member of this fine community. My attempt at humour headed south real quick. Once again I apologize for my previous actions.

Disagree. I love farflung's posts, and I reckon he could make money out of his writing. Not a huge Kinky fan personally to be honest. I'd rather compare farflung to Jeremy Clarkson, who you guys may or may not know. In fact farflung's description of his troubles in Holland could just as easily have been penned by Clarkson! Farflung, i have no opinion on your hunkiness, but please keep on with the posts! Mr. orange you surely jest. Farflung is about as funny IMHO as a colostomy. Some of you really think his posts are amusing? I just puked in my mouth slightly just thinking of his "hunkiness". Orange1 is a female....Mr.Green...you are an FNG that has recently invaded this forum. Keep your pessimistic opinions to yourself. Life is short - stop the drama - don't read his posts....GREAT.....the end. Sorry if you just puked in your mouth a little bit, however it gives me a good clue why YOU have such a sour disposition. Again...a colostomy....I understand this may be the reason for your shitty outlook on life. Farflung is a friend of this forum and will be a friend of ours long after you decide to depart. Sorry to engage you in this type of banter, but honestly...LIFE IS TOO F"N SHORT and IT CHANGES ON A DIME! OK, Ms. Orange, sorry for the gender mistake and Vicki why don't you calm the heck down? Just because I do not find Farflung funny does not mean you and Ms.Orange have to come running to defend his honor like 2 young school girls who just reached puberty. You're right life's too short so practice what you preach honeybunny.I apologize if I offended anyone though. I simply do not find farflungs posts funny.I do not think I deserved to be racked in the balls by vicki just because of my views though.

However since Farflung seems to have plenty of fans i'm sure he will continue. i for one would prefer to continue the discussion of Dan Cooper.
