I looked at my antenna the other day while I was talking. I saw some
jumping off. Szczepan has been right all along. Or maybe it was bird do
do I saw falling. Anyway, something was coming down from my antenna.


Me too but I know what it is; the insulation from the cheap Home Depot house
wire I used to make the antenna.

The damn insulation is hard to strip off when it is new but falls off all
by itself after a couple of years in the sun.
