Waddles *is* still around.


Of course, Kim.


Well, I've got my new computer all reset to keep the riff raff off my
machine...at least the riff raff from this newsgroup...heh heh.


It's a wonder there's anyone left getting his
posts, eh?


Background noise, nothing more.


Yep...and I like doing with background noise here the same I do on the air
with it: ignore it.


He keeps ragging on folks for not wanting to upgrade to Extra.


And if they do, he still rags on them.


That's true.


Well, as I recall, Waddles never planned on the Extra until his

(legendary
for sure) bet was presented.


*And* the code requirement was reduced.


ROFLMAO!!!! Oh r-r-r-r-r-e-a-l-l-y???!!! I had not realized that--man
that's hilarious!!


You don't really think anyone takes Bruce seriously, do ya? He and LHA are
philosophically the same person, with the same goals here. Just different
methods. Heck, they might even be the same person, period. Nobody with any
sense takes Len seriously, same as ULX.


I hadn't seen anyone take Waddles seriously before I started ignoring posts
with his information in them...and doubt they would. There's no one here
*that* dumbed down.


He had a price, you don't.


Everyone has a price, Kim. Often it's not money, though.


I'd like to believe I don't have one. But you're probably right. I don't
have one, though, where ham radio is concerned--it's not that much of a
passion for me. The way I feel about it's the way I feel about it.


You've decided (so
far) not to go for Extra and you've stood by your decision--unlike

Waddles
who can't keep to a decision.


You mean like someone who says they're going for Extra "right out of the

box"
but hasn't done so in 4 years?


Is that what Waddles did? Actually, I fault no one for saying something,
then changing their mind. I do it all the time. I used to say I'd never be
able to marry a Texan...and I did--and he's proved wrong everything I ever
thought about it.


And, ain't it a hoot that he's out from the lower ranks and sittin' right

up
there with the ranks of other Extras whom you and I know are rather
questionable in nature, motivation, and even personality? LOL


Who would they be?

73 de Jim, N2EY



Oh, I think you're well aware!
