    Would that be Adam, N7YA?
    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.

    They said "famous," not "infamous." Besides, you're only famous among other hams and the Crest Division of the SDCSO, Pat! ;)

    Perhaps if you added philanthropist to your resume? Start a radio school for underprivileged children.

    If they ever come up with a list of notorious hams, they can just copy and paste the membership roster here at the Island.
    I am surprised at such a sudden deterioration in a woman whose only ailment was a lazy anus.

    KB2LHI - Joe Walsh - "Guinness Book of World Records" lists him as the "World's Fastest Shooter."

    Died at the age of 60. Maybe his poor wife was able to remarry someone a little more sensitive to her needs. ;)
