Albert Bond Lambert

Albert Bond Lambert (December 6, 1875 – November 12, 1946) was an American golfer who competed in the 1900 Summer Olympics and in the 1904 Summer Olympics. He was also a prominent St. Louis aviator and benefactor of aviation.


Lambert was a Police Commissioner of St. Louis and a local industrialist. In 1906 he became interested in aviation, and took ballooning lessons. In 1907 he was one of the founders of the Aero Club of St. Louis. (The Club used “military” titles; hence Lambert’s title “Major.”) He attended the Smith Academy at Washington University in St. Louis

In 1909 Lambert met the Wright Brothers, and purchased his first airplane from them. He took flying lessons from Orville Wright, and in 1911 became the first St. Louis resident to hold a pilot’s license. During World War I he served in the Aviation Section of the United States Army Signal Corps, as an instructor in ballooning and parachuting.

In 1925, for $68,000, Lambert purchased Kinloch Field of Kinloch, Missouri, a 170-acre (0.69 km2) field northwest of St. Louis, which had been used for hot air balloon ascensions and the first international air meet. For the next seven years, Lambert, at his own expense, developed the field with runways and hangars. In 1927 Charles Lindbergh used Lambert Field (as it had been renamed) as the starting point for his famous flight to Paris. The following year, 1928, Lambert sold the field to the city of St. Louis for $68,000, the same price he’d paid for it before making improvements. Lambert-St. Louis International Airport thus became the first municipal airport in the United States.

Dawn Of The Dead


Officer. Sir? You do not want to go that way.
- What's that way? - It's pretty bad.
What about Fort Pastor?
If you had wings. The road's thick with those motherfuckers.
- How do you know? - Wejust tried. Come on.
Back when there was eight of us.
We're going to the mall.

Of course. CD-R.

The abbreviation for U.S. Navy Commander is CDR.

That is why Suzanne Morgan was going on that time back in 1999, I think when I was still a TAM, about how much she liked Fry's Electronic's stores and wanted me to pick up some CD-R's for her when I was down there in Portland to visit my customers.
