Airport, from ia-
The authority also discussed the
role of a FBO. Register Aviation’s
contract with the authority as FBO
was originally scheduled to end
April 10, 1994. However, the
agreement was extended until Sept.
10, 1994, since the authority did
not have another FBO available to
take over from Register.
There was discussion about the
airport selling gas to aviators. "The
number one profit center (at an air
port) is fuel," said DorsetL
However, Dorsett said the au
thority had to be careful about the
services it provided and the services
the FBO provided. "We have to cre
ate the environment for the FBO to
make money," he said, adding that
the authority might have to allow
an FBO to sell gas.

can they be happy with the sorry state of affairs they face? Ms.
Loudcrmilk says that a magazine article she read said that Generation X
will be poorer than their parents. She apparently believes this to be true.
She says that knowing she will never be as financially secure as her
parents is depressing. She contends that money means more than ever, and
that she works more for less and less. I would ask her to compare her
starting salary to her parents starting salary. I would ask her to itemize her
personal belongings and compare it to her parents list when they were her
age. I am confident that she is starting off much higher on the economic
ladder than they did. Yet despite all of this, Generation X demands
happiness, and Generation X wants their happiness now!
So Generation X has this feeling of despair. Life is missing any
meaning they say. Kurt Cobain fired a shotgun into his skull, surely
because of this despair, they claim. Yet Kurt Cobain had lots of money, a
big mansion, fancy cars, the opportunity to travel, all the things that Ms.
Loudcrmilk contends that Generation X cannot attain today. Despite all of
this, he sought to end his life, leaving his wife and child behind. What
was missing from Kurt Cobain's life? What is missing from Generation
X’s life? For anyone that is missing any meaning to their life, I suggest
that they sit down in a quiet place and discuss their life with the Lord.
you say, why bring ’ religion" into this? This has nothing to do
with religion, you say. I contend otherwise. If you have all the material
possessions on the earth, if you have a wife, children, home, money, cars,
and so forth, and yet your life remains unfulfilled, why do you think that
more of that stuff will cure your malaise? In Matthew 19:16-26, Jesus
told the rich, young ruler, to give away all of his possessions and follow
him. The young ruler could not do it. That was 2000 years ago, and not
much has changed.
To all that feel that they >elong to Generation X, I point you to the
Lord, Jesus Christ. We know that you are no worse off than your parents,
but if you arc not better off than your parents, examine why. When we, as
a people, look to the government to solve all of our problems, instead of
looking inward and upward, we will continue to bounce around, unhappy
with our lot in life alway looking forward to greener pastures, and we
will always want more. But government is f ite, as is our time on earth.
Make your decision now, while you can. Your decision is between life as
lived by Kurt Cobain, with certain eternal death, or life, in the fullness of
Christ, both here on Earth and in Heaven.
Vert truly yours,.
