Marine Max executive passes away at age 52
CLEARWATER, Fla.-Oct. 6, 2006-MarineMax, together with boating and
yachting enthusiasts around the world, is mourning the loss of Tony Pasca the MarineMax president of Motor Yachts, who passed away Thursday at the age of 52. He was a knowledgeable and enthusiastic presence in the yachting industry and a loving father, husband, son, brother and friend. A longtime member of the yachting industry, Pasca's passion for the business was contagious. He was respected by all who knew him, and his passing leaves a tremendous void. "MarineMax and the industry will miss Tony's passion, wisdom, knowledge and friendship," says MarineMax CEO William McGill, Jr. "Tony's focus on business and family during his difficult five year struggle with cancer, while never complaining, was an inspiration to our team and customers." While attending Iona College in New Rochelle, New York, Pasca played minor league baseball for the New York Mets farm team in Tampa, Florida. After graduating, he worked for Arthur Young in New York City before moving to South Florida to assume the position as controller of Hatteras of Lauderdale. At Hatteras, Pasca played a pivotal role in negotiating the company's sale to Allied Marine Group, owned by Winthrop Rockefeller. In the mid-90s, Pasca and a group of partners purchased Allied Marine from Rockefeller and ran the company successfully for a number of years. In 2001, Pasca sold his interests in Allied Marine and joined MarineMax as president of Motor Yachts. An enthusiastic and compassionate businessman, Pasca assumed a significant role at MarineMax. "He was a master strategist with a truly brilliant mind," says Stephen Gale, vice president of Motor Yachts at MarineMax. "Tony loved his work. We were blessed to have known and worked with him. " Pasca was instrumental in establishing the partnership between MarineMax and the Italian yacht manufacturer, the Ferretti Group, in which MarineMax became the exclusive provider of Ferretti Group products in the United States. No matter what he was doing or where he was working, Pasca's infectious optimism and enthusiasm continually inspired those who worked with him and knew him to strive for excellence. According to Jay Avelino, vice president of Team Development at MarineMax and close friend, Pasca was, "charming and quick-witted, and never lost his 'New York attitude.' Tony was always spontaneous with a funny, usually salty, comment that kept everyone laughing and at ease. He was a very shrewd but compassionate businessman. He loved his family and friends. In his courageous battle with the cancer that took his life, he was a role model for dealing with adversity, and he consistently showed grace under tremendous pressure. We will all miss him terribly." Pasca is survived by his wife Celeste; children Kimberly, Angela, John and Ryan; parents Jean and Tony Pasca; and sister Cindy Rogers. The family has requested that in lieu of flowers, donations be made to The Miami Project to Cure Paralysis (www.themiamiproject.org). The Miami Project is headed up by Dr. Barth Green, a close friend of Pasca's who was responsible for extending his life over the last four years. Donations can also be made to Pasca's parish church, St. Joan of Arc Catholic Church in Boca Raton.

I've been in the Pentagon, how it's constructed it like no other buildings
in town. If you've not been in it you haven't a clue making guesses about how it'd be affected by an impact. Likewise, I've spoken with people here in the area that SAW THE PLANE. Believe whatever nonsense you like, but I'll trust them a lot more than some internet crackpots. |

It was a North Korean nuclear powered PWC that hopped over this enormous wake out on the Potomac and didn't come down until it blew a hole in the Pentagon. You heard it here first, on rec.boats. (If it wasn't a plane, the implication would be that the US Government somehow "disposed" of a lot of people that were on the plane that went missing and allegedly crashed into the Pentagon. I like my PWC version better, and it makes equal sense.) |

Did the plane fly into the Bermuda Triangle and get transported to the big wheel circling the earth or was the plane sucked into the depths of the ocean where all crew and passengers drowned? You do know they can trace the serial numbers off of the parts that were found at the Pentagon to the plane they were put in service on don't you? |

There was NO PLANE....or we could SEE IT! Tell us, Larry, about your academic and photographic credentials that allow you to make such pronouncements. Oh, I know. You were in the Navy. As an electrician. I am constantly amused by these dumbasses who seem to think that a largely hollow tube made of aluminum with two wings also largely hollow and made of aluminum can somehow survive a 600 mph impact with a steel reinforced concrete building. Of course, it's not on the camera so that proves there wasn't an aircraft. Hmmm - I wonder if a camera that takes one and a half frames per second can capture a aircraft moving 600 mph in three frames. Think so? Allow me to restate. It's not amusing - it's sad. I did see the security photos of the plane hitting the pentagon. There are people who look for a conspiracy theory in everything, and ignore the facts that disprove their theory. |

Another odd coincidence is that the plane, instead of flying STRAIGHT IN TO RUMSFELD's OFFICE and taking out the JCS with him....the plane flew ALL THE WAY AROUND the building so it could crash into a special area of the Pentagon that was uninhabited and under construction. Wasn't that nice of the terrorists to do that for the generals and admirals, not messing up their offices and killing the TOP BRASS of the Illuminati's war machine? They musta targeted those cable reels the construction crews left on the lawn right in front of the 16' hole the whole plane fit through before it simply disappeared, eh?

Men in suits were photographed carrying away scraps of aluminum skin light enough to be carried in one hand. Air Force enlisted did carry off a box on their shoulders, very quickly after the event, covered over with a blue tarp...also photographed and recorded on video...of an object light enough for 8 men to carry on their shoulders. What were they carrying that was such a goddamned secret, Boeing parts? Why no response to numerous requests for ALL the videos of the events, not the 5 frames from one parking lot camera of the most recorded building on the planet. Even nearby surveillance videos from businesses were summarily rounded up and disposed of by FBI who showed up at gas stations with cameras MINUTES after the event, not hours or days. Planned? It's uncanny how quickly it all just disappeared, don't you think? -- There's amazing intelligence in the Universe. You can tell because none of them ever called Earth. |

Nearly everybody is misled by highly paid spin doctors, manipulated government reports and news broadcasts, and partisan "talking points." We have now reached the point where we head back into the dark ages- the moment when even the propagandists begin to believe their own effluent and nobody any longer has even the most remote idea what the truth is or how they would recognize it if they encountered it. But everybody still cares about truth - at least his or her personal version of it. |
