Author Message   Court Posted on Tuesday, June 02, 2009 - 08:49 pm:        I got e-mails from two folks at about the same time the other day from Iraq and Afghanistan offering "flown flags" and I think one of them was wanting a Buell flag flown at Buell. I've been buried this week getting ready to leave and will go back and check the e-mails . . sounds totally doable. Heck . . . I may fly one over the old barn at sunrise!   Damnut Posted on Tuesday, June 02, 2009 - 09:54 pm:        Here is the first picture.   Stingaroo Posted on Wednesday, June 03, 2009 - 03:01 am:        Kevin, I think Chris is all over that one here on our end. Jim, thank you for posting the pics, I waited for about an hour and they would not upload on Badweb. Took 15 minutes to get them on Yahoo. Todd, hmmmmm, special request, let me think. ahhhh, something that looks good, somethng delicious, something wiht some walnuts, kinda dark in color..... I see brownies with walnuts! Always a big hit, I hand them out as soon as I get them. If you could post up or send a picture of them baking, I would love to hang it up. Send me thier ages, I will be happy to write them a letter to know how much we appreciate it. Take care one and all, for those going to Buell's Anniversary, have fun looking forward to reading about it. Brian   M2ridingarmyguy Posted on Wednesday, June 03, 2009 - 08:00 am:        Kevin I can get a flag flown on one of our birds. (looking at your screenname and previouos posts you should know which kind of birds). Just gotta get down to the crappy px and try to find one. Jason   Firebolt020283 Posted on Wednesday, June 03, 2009 - 12:40 pm:        m2 are you in BAF because I noticed your zip is the same as mine?   Kenney83 Posted on Wednesday, June 03, 2009 - 03:34 pm:        over here in kandahar our C-130's do a lot of air drops. we have flags flown all the time on them. i have some pics of them but i have no way to shrink them down on my computer if some one would be will to post them for me that would be cool. thanks steve   Damnut Posted on Wednesday, June 03, 2009 - 03:48 pm:        Steven PM sent. I can take care of that for you.   Damnut Posted on Wednesday, June 03, 2009 - 09:23 pm:        From Steven: the first pic is a flag that i flew on an air drop of afghanistan, the second one is a pic of a C-130J getting ready to fly. the third is a pic of a temperature gauge sitting in the sun for 15 mins. thanks again for all your support. Steve   Stingaroo Posted on Thursday, June 04, 2009 - 01:10 am:        There you go, I do happen to have a special request for a Temp Gauge that goes over 120. The mercury one we got is usually just red most of the day. Nice pics Steve, stay safe, Brian   Kenney83 Posted on Thursday, June 04, 2009 - 04:50 am:        Hay Jim thanks for posting the pics. I also got your package to day. everyone here is suprised that some one I don't know would send so much stuff. I got you magazines, also thanks for the patches. I am originally from CT, so I was hoping to get a NEBO patch at some point. Stingaroo, the temp guage was flashing at me, it wouldn't go over 122. Thanks again and everyone here thanks you also. Steve   Xb9er Posted on Thursday, June 04, 2009 - 11:40 am:        If anyone can send some of the buell videos that are from the website(new and old) on a disc that would be great. I love watching those videos.   M2ridingarmyguy Posted on Thursday, June 04, 2009 - 01:09 pm:        I'm not in baf but my mail goes through there.   Jerry_haughton Posted on Friday, June 05, 2009 - 06:14 am:        To Brian, Chris, Steven, Donald, Patrick, and Jason (and everyone else on BadWeB deployed in defense of our freedoms): The Honor Run's "Fly an American Flag in Honor" fundraiser reached the $10k mark this morning, in honor you folks - thank you for your service!!

My OIC liked the one about bicycles.   Squidbuzz Posted on Saturday, June 06, 2009 - 07:48 am:        Cool, glad to hear that. I was just cleaning up the ones that I had laying around. I'll send more soon. =) (Message edited by SquidBuzz on June 06, 2009)   Kenney83 Posted on Saturday, June 06, 2009 - 10:27 am:        Well here is an up date. Todd got your magazines. Couple of my co-workrs are big into mountain bikes. Jim within 3 hours all the brownies where gone. 6 hours the cookies where gone, and by the time that i came back to work the next day everything was gone. Thanks again Jim.   Damnut Posted on Saturday, June 06, 2009 - 10:51 am:        No problem Steve, it was my pleasure. Those brownies are good, aren't they. I love them things. Stay safe and thanks for your service.   Chellem Posted on Saturday, June 06, 2009 - 02:48 pm:        How long does it take a package to get there? Would homemade brownies survive the trip in regular packaging, or would it require some sort of, well, I don't know, hermetical-type sealing? Hypothetically. ->ChelleM   Damnut Posted on Saturday, June 06, 2009 - 02:58 pm:        Kristi I send 2 40lb boxes to Iraq and a 46lb box to Afghanistan on a Thursday, USPS Priority Mail. Stingaroo got his boxes the following Tuesday and Steve got his on the following Wednesday.   Bluzm2 Posted on Sunday, June 07, 2009 - 12:22 pm:        My shipment to Stingaroo took about a week. The brownies were fine. I froze them SOLID inside a gallon sized ziplock bag. Got as much air out as I could before freezing. They were wrapped with bubble wrap in the center of some other stuff. They probably stayed frozen for at least a day or two. I'll do the same next time too. Brad   Firebolt020283 Posted on Monday, June 08, 2009 - 01:46 pm:        Todd, I got your package today.Thank you very much it is awesome. But more importantly please tell sami i loved her drawing. I am a real sucker for kids after all in the end they are the reason we do this. I put it on my wall in my room.   Squidbuzz Posted on Monday, June 08, 2009 - 06:22 pm:        Cool, glad to hear things have made it to you guys. I will pass on the thanks to the girls. Hopefully this weekend they will do some baking.   Kenney83 Posted on Tuesday, June 09, 2009 - 11:17 am:        Todd got your package today thanks for the stuff, tell your daughters thanks for the picture, Court I got your package yesterday. The magazine is awsome tell Eric thanks. My boss is still in disbelief that what everyone has done for us. Jim your flag was flown the other day, and I am just waiting on a certificate. I also took some pics of it around the base. Thanks again everyone. Steve   Damnut Posted on Tuesday, June 09, 2009 - 12:07 pm:        Thanks Steve!! that is very cool. I'll be sending more stuff in a few weeks. Did you like those brownies? Was there anything in the box that you would like to have again? btw I copied you & Brian on an email that I sent my fellow co-workers thanking them for helping me out. Hope you don't mind. oh and sorry for folding the flag the wrong way. I realized my bonehead move after it was already packed up.   Damnut Posted on Wednesday, June 10, 2009 - 09:43 am:        received a message from Steve today: Hay Jim here are a couple more pics if you could resize them and post them for me. That is your flag. It was flown on an airdrop mission the night prior. Thanks again Steve   Stingaroo Posted on Friday, June 12, 2009 - 01:57 pm:        Got your package today Court thank you! I got Chris one of the picks, the magazines and food I left down at the CP for guys to enjoy. Its amazing how fast your packages get here. My wife sent one out beginning of May and it still has not showed up...   Court Posted on Friday, June 12, 2009 - 02:21 pm:        I'd forgotten I had a case of those Buell Racing guitar picks . . .thought you guys might enjoy. I found a case of 2009 Buell literature and am sending you some copies to distribute and to lust over. By the way . . . I didn't forget you guys at Homecoming . . . Erik has you covered. Head down . . hurry home . . we miss you!   Xb9er Posted on Friday, June 12, 2009 - 05:18 pm:        You guys are the best. Court thats awesome. Let me know about the flag exchange. When you let me know and if the exchange is a go. Send me the address to send it too, also send me your address I have something for you. Also I'll need your and Eriks T-shirt sizes chris   Stingaroo Posted on Saturday, June 13, 2009 - 11:34 am:        Chris, got an idea, and I think you are following the same train of thought... I will try to link up with you tonite or tommorrow
