My boyfriend just sent me his "Dream Sheet" from basic yesterday. So I’m very curious to hear about everyones interactions with these bases. I want to know about the areas around the bases, the size of the bases, the services at the bases, and what the atmosphere is like on the bases. But any other information is welcome. I know obviously he won’t be choosing but I’m just curious to know about all of these places.

1.Peterson Colorado
2.McConnell Kansas
3.Pope North Carolina
4.Hill Utah
5.MacDill Florida
6.Travis California
7.Seymour Johnson Nor Carolina
8.Scott illinois

My nephew loves Peterson and a good friend of mine loves MacDill. I never got stationed at a base on my dream sheet until I went to a remote base. I was given my third choice which wasn’t too good. That base no longer exists.

If your boyfriend is Security Forces, he will get screwed on his choice of bases but it’s a fun career field. He will go to a missile or bomber base and then get deployed to SWA.

Avoid Scott (small-boring-headquarters base), McConnel (cold-remote), and Hill (cold-remote). Bases near larger cities are more fun, but if you like hunting and fishing, there are many bases that could satisfy you.

ok so if you go to court for a traffic ticket and the officer doesn’t show up does the ticket have to be dropped, i know that’s the way it is in scott county iowa but idk about rock island, i went to court today and the officer didn’t show up for the court date, but they didn’t drop the charges, please tell me if i need to call them and argue about this
i am fighting the charges because they are bogus, i plead not guilty, so i had to schedule a court date, so i show up to court and the cop never showed up

only if your fighting it.. but it can be continued by either party

my brother is in the air force and is stationed at scott air force base illinois. i live in connecticut. i want to send him a bulk pack of waffles (144ct) but dont know if thats ok because they are frozen…. can he refreeze them once they thaw??

They would arrive in a mushy mess unless you find some way to keep them cold (like dry ice) during the shipping.
Sorry!
If it means that much to him, why don’t you solicit someone from the area to buy and deliver them to his door, for a fee?
Otherwise, just send him some waffle mix and a waffle maker of his own!

An illegal immigrant is behind bars charged with identity theft.

35 year old Tixtha Martinez has been residing in Morton. She was arrested Wednesday on three counts of identity theft.

Martinez is accused of opening loans at the Central Mississippi Federal Credit Union using a stolen identity. The victims were from illinois and contacted the Mississippi Attorney General’s office to report the crime.

Martinez is being held in the Scott County jail. Her bond is set at 75-thousand dollars.

Not an illegal supporter here but I’d guess they would say "That illegal didn’t do it they were just blamed for it because of their race" or some other such nonsense.

I am researching my relatives and found several illinois census records with DO as the occupation. I have no idea what this means. It is listed under hundreds of head of households. I searched for the abbreviations but found nothing with DO. Help Please!

http://us-census.org/pub/usgenweb/census/il/scott/1850/pg0078a.txt
Here is a link I am looking at that shows the DO.

"Do" was an old way to write "Same as above". I’d bet large sums at long odds they were all farmers. You also see it in birthplaces, when everyone on the page is born in the same state.

I moved to Iowa from Oregon in late 2008. I do know where to start asking questions (Illinois DNR), and I have their phone number[s]. But, heck, I thought, someone on Yahoo! answers will probably be able to guide me in the right direction. I have several weapons, a couple of .22 rifles, a 12-guage shotgun, and a Winchester model 1917 30.06 that I’d prefer not to use since it’s from WWI and is a relic, and worth some money and I don’t want to F it up by accidently jamming it or whatever. Plus, I don’t see the need to put that kind of firepower into a turkey. I haven’t been turkey hunting in Illinois since I was a young’n and I don’t remember anything because we went with my uncle and he took care of all the legal stuff. I don’t want to take my bird in Iowa (where I live) because the state requires the prerequisite of a hunter safety course, whilst illinois doesn’t (over a certain age, and I’m 30). So, I’m willing to pay the extra $ for the tag or hunting permit or whatever is required unless I do the math VS. Iowa and my home state turns out to be cheaper. Now. I live in Scott County Iowa and I’d like to take my bird in Rock Island or Mercer county in Illinois. Does anyone have ANY advice, detailed or just a point-in-the-right-direction for how and what I do next. I’m ashamed to admit that I’ve accompanied my friend (who always lives out west and shoots anything he wants, back to his home state of PA for several poaching trips. I’ve made the promise to myself, the Commonwealth of PA, as well as all the other states, and mother nature to never poach again. It is not good for the environment and the monies are not collected for the preservation and restoration of our beloved natural areas. So, where do I go from here? -john in Iowa with no Thanksgiving turkey and no answers. Hmm. I don’t think Yahoo answers allows me to give out my real email or I’d do it. Heck I’d even give my phone number (maybe too trusting, I don’t know)… Some help? All appreciated!
Oh, I can’t use a compound bow to hunt because of I’m dis-abled because of a motorcycle accident (of course, like most, it was not my fault). I don’t have it on paper that I can’t draw a bow, but if it came down to it, I could get it done….. Just incase anyone wondered why I insisted on using a firearm… thx

Killing animals = bad… taking their photos = good

Scott Lee Cohen, the winner of the Democratic primary for Illinois lieutenant governor, says he will not step down despite a past checkered with a number of unsavory issues.

His estranged wife accused him of steroid use and angry outbursts and sought an order of protection. His girlfriend who later pleaded guilty to prostitution claimed he held a knife to her throat. But Cohen says those mistakes are all in the past.

Boss H…
Our current governor IS the Lt. governor.
Our Previous Governor is Rod Blago, who has been indicted.
Before Blago, that governor is currently in prison.

Politics in illinois is a unique brand but I think you already know that by now

Has any one challenged that law and won without having to hire a attorney to do so?

I got a ticket for that over the week end and I don’t think it was justified, as I didn’t endanger any officer because I didn’t changes when they were in the emergency lane..by the time I saw them, I couldn’t change lanes but slowed down before I passed in my lane. But a trailing highway patrolman pulled me over for a ticket any way..that law I understand but I do not feel should be ticketed for unless a driver not just not changing lanes actually does something to endanger a officer.
Sorry this "I didn’t changes when they were in the emergency lane..by the time I saw them"

Should have read " I didn’t make the lane change when he was in the emergency lane because by the time time I saw him"

I don’t know about illinois, but, in Oregon you will get a ticket if you don’t move over. They will bust you here also. No excuses.

One takes off with an under-age illegal immigrant to Mexico (Nebraska)
another is a copy with 3 dead ex wives (illinois)
another goes on HS killing spree (Wisconsin)
another deep sixes his pregnant wife (California)
and one is a fake name used by the "Black Muslim" Mafia of Oakland, CA (California)

It seems Peterson’s get into all kinds of trouble.

I noticed that too. Ladies, if you meet a guy with the last name Peterson – RUN!!!

name of Peterson. His missing wife is named Stacy. Lacy is the name of the pregnant CA. woman apparently murdered by her husband Scott. Both of these men appear to be cocky womanizers who lack consciences. Is this a strange coincidence or what? If convicted, perhaps they’ll toss the older man in with Scott so they can compare notes. And fight over love letters sent to them in prison, which is usual with this type of criminal.

Admittedly, this is not an uncommon last name but even so, it is a bizarre coincidence that two recent high-profile cases involved men with that last name who are suspected in their wife’s disappearance. Neither showed any concern about their wives and neither participated in any searches for them. It would be even stranger if Stacy’s body had been dumped into a body of water and weighted down with cement, like Laci’s was.
