    Its Field Day!

    Been thinking about doing one of those living will things.. "In the event of my demise, it is my fervent desire that UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES should my final disposition in any way interfere with Field Day".

    Its Field Day!

    Yes Steve, my QTH is Michigan. This is one event that there is absolutely NO balance in my life. I know it is bad, but I have actually told people not to even think of dying for field day. May take a couple of days for me to figure out what to do with you.. Same for me though. I'd want the show to go on!

    Its Field Day!

    After we set everything up, we sit down and eat at five or so. There is a lady in the club that is an absolute MASTER at grilling turkey. It is almost unbelievably good.

    Well, lets just say that that's another hint.

    I will give you a hint on the pictures though. I am not overweight, but am slightly hairy and wear a cap.

    Its Field Day!

    Well, the big day has (almost) finally arrived. This is the ham version of Christmas and New Years combined. Thousands of rabidly zealous radio operators this weekend will go out in the woods and public places and see what they can do. Here is a link to some pictures we took of the event a couple of years ago. Be warned, if you are on dial up, you may be waiting a VERY long time for the pictures to load. Field Day 2003 I am in one of the pictures. I'll let you try to figure out who, heh heh. Even President Bush gets involved: Field Day Announcement It can be a competitive event, but the local group I am involved with is in it mostly for the fun.
  7. Only problem is after a while, you run out of closets.

    Call me Ham

    Thanks Raf! :o-->
  9. In all honesty, I think the term "Nazi" is very appropriate. In every way. Why not call it what it is? It looks Nazi, feels Nazi, smells like Nazi, talks like Nazi, it must BE Nazi.
  10. Holy Cow. And this was about a year ago. Can't convince me that this is not a relevant topic. And the idiots WON'T LET UP. They are like a starving dog with a little bit of putrid meat- won't let loose of it until they are stone, cold, dead. In a way, I still can't understand it. What's the appeal of this? If the kids did this within the year, the belief must be still more than alive and well at Der Vey. Some "witness" for the Lord Jesus Christ. Ptooie.
  11. Sure makes more sense than the alternative, "miracles" bringing glory and honor to OUR supposed cleverness.
  12. Yep. In a way, you could say that life for them is looking "Rosie".

    Call me Ham

    Kit, that's nice. Maybe we'll meet someday. My call is in my public profile here.

  15. Maybe they are just afraid of ending up in the cauldron..
  16. HERE is a little more about Luther. Needless to say, my opinion of him is not a good one. He helped to define "the enemy". I honestly can't see him in the light that TWI painted him, any more. For some reason, I can't see the true God at work in all of this..

    "secular"

    Well, considering how he dressed up like Paul of Taursus and Joshua, he probably at least considered dressing up like a more secular (gotta keep with the topic of the thread, you know!) figure, Robin Hood. That little post card would have made a real impression among the innies, I am sure!
  18. For Loy's "victory speech" simply substitute "the one true household" for "the communist world", "Headquarters" for "Kapuchea" and "over-run with devil spirits" for "Vietnamese". Fits to a "T".
  19. Cripe, that almost would sound like Hitler's "acceptance speech" at Nuremberg had he survived. Just substitue "Aryan" for "communist", "Germany" for "Kampuchea" and "Jewish" for "Vietnamese". Staff and Corps- if the time ever comes, your wonderful BOT and "leadership" will turn you over like there's no tomorrow- "the PEOPLE made us do it". "It was THEIR idea, we just went along with the gag..." Hope you have a good story.
  20. Maybe THIS WEB SITE will answer the question.
  21. We'd have to change the song: "When the Mars hits your eye like a big custard pie that's.. well, something, anyway"
  22. Belle, my mom took one look at me and basically said, "no way". No license for you, heh heh. The alternative would have been, at least at the time, horrific.
  23. Probably couldn't get a real job having so many skeletons in the closet..
  24. I agree. They taught us to fight, and dirty at that: With our family. Sixteen easy lessons to learn how to smile, nod, and think they are full of ...., all at the same time. And never accept no for an answer. "You wanna take this class?" "No." "Well, maybe you just don't know all the benefits like I do..." With our acquaintences and co-workers. NEVER (at least from a practical sense) accept NO for an answer. "You wanna take this class?" "No." "Well, maybe you just don't know all the benefits like I do..." With our spouses. Continuously look for any form of "devilishness" and report it immediately. Can't have anything "unclean" in the camp, you know.. Probably the worst, they taught us to fight dirty with OURSELVES. Just renew the mind, ignore the bad manners, hold questions about idiotic doctrine in abeyance, until TWI experts can "get back to you about it". Sit and take it because "the bible tells me so". Forget that that little voice telling you all is not well may just not be the devil himself.
