Excellent dodge of the statement, Dwight. You might have a future in
politics.

LOL!! My wife, who seldom makes any comment on anything pretaining to
amature radio, just walked into the room, looked over my shoulder and
upon seeing kim's call sign displayed in the newsgroup header said, "who
would be issued a call sign like that?" After explaining it was a vanity
call sign and the person requested it, her comment was, "what kind of
idiot would ever choose such a call sign?"
I ask her if she thought it was vulgar. "Not really vulgar, just
suggestive and totally lacking in taste, I suppose some people have to
get attention anyway they can".

You, your wife, Larry Roll, my good friends here in this area who enjoy the
fun of my callsign--anyone--has the right to believe and think as they do;
and the opinion of my callsign is an absolutely correct one--for each and
everyone who has one.

And, for me, and those who either think nothing of my callsign, think it's
fun, wouldn't have selected it but don't see it is a main distraction, we
are just as correct.

Your wife, JJ, probably also has the opinion that people who dance for a
living; who are in magazines like Hustler, Playboy and Playgirl; who lead a
risque life, etc., are all "totally lacking in taste." I don't and I am
certainly not in any minority.

The difference between people like "us" and people like "you" is that we
don't expect anyone to live up to anyone else's expectations or standards.
I have no problem at all with your opinion, the opinion of Larry Roll, the
opinion of your wife. I do, however, take great exception to crossing the
line and deciding that it's quite OK for sneering, resorting to desperate
other measures trying to make someone feel embarrassed, etc. Whether you or
anyone else realizes it, there are people--such as myself--who have risen
way above letting the opinions of others get in the way of living life
beautifully. But, it takes a lot of work and self-reflection to get there.
And, there are more people who won't ever get there than who are there--and
it is for those people that each and every time someone acts like an asshole
toward another, I will have no problem mimicking the behavior right back at
them.

So, tell your wife that I totally respect her opinion--but that is as far as
it goes. I don't "need" the attention of anyone. I am well liked, love
people, work every day to help people succeed and make the best of
themselves, and pick up in a second for the underdog in any situation. And,
I don't know what she thinks I might be suggesting, since it is singly my
husband that I love and he needs no suggestion. Do you?

Sort of an inclusive, "it means all of those things", huh?

And, for me, and those who either think nothing of my callsign, think it's

are just as correct.

You're sort of a thermos bottle for amateur radio. It keeps things hot
or it keeps things cold!

Modern dance? Jazz? Ballet?

who are in magazines like Hustler, Playboy and Playgirl; who lead a

No you aren't, Kim. You and the entire Springer Show audience are in
agreement.

The difference between people like "us" and people like "you" is that we
don't expect anyone to live up to anyone else's expectations or standards.

But you've already told me that my view of you thumbing your nose at the
world is correct. Wouldn't this latest position of your be at odds with
that claim?

....but you have no objections at all to offending folks who believe your
choice of vanity callsign is tasteless and offensive.

So, tell your wife that I totally respect her opinion--but that is as far as
it goes. I don't "need" the attention of anyone.

Your post on thumbing your nose at the world indicates otherwise. So
does your choice of callsigns.

Kim:

That's right, because living up to other people's expectations or standards
is what normal, intelligent, polite, and socially acceptable people do. You
have given more than adequate evidence to the fact that you are none of
the above.

I have no problem at all with your opinion, the opinion of Larry Roll, the
opinion of your wife.

Which is where you fall down, Kim. Anyone with a conscience would
care very much what people like JJ, Mrs. JJ, and I think of them.

I would hardly refer to what Riley Hollingsworth so elequently stated as
bringing the ARS "...one step closer to extinction" as "living life
beautifully."
That is the perverted construct of an equally perverted mind.

But, it takes a lot of work and self-reflection to get there.

I don't think the request of a sexually-suggestive and clearly offensive
amateur radio callsign requires much work or self-reflection. All it requires
is a bad attitude and a willingness to cheapen one's self and all other
amateur radio operators -- particularly YL's. Obviously you are up to that
particular challenge, but it doesn't reflect anything positive about your
personality or character.

And, there are more people who won't ever get there than who are there--and
it is for those people that each and every time someone acts like an asshole
toward another, I will have no problem mimicking the behavior right back at
them.

On the contrary, Kim, I'd say that you have behaving like an asshole down
to an art.

So, tell your wife that I totally respect her opinion--but that is as far as
it goes.

JJ's XYL doesn't require your respect, and I'm sure she doesn't expect it.
Moreover, the fact that you offer it may even offend her.

I don't "need" the attention of anyone.

In spite of all of the evidence to the contrary.

I am well liked, love
people, work every day to help people succeed and make the best of
themselves, and pick up in a second for the underdog in any situation.

And I'm sure all of this exists primarily in your own mind. It would be
very interesting to have a private conversation with your close acquaintences
and co-workers. I'm sure that they would be quite ready to paint an entirely
different picture of one Kim Walker, W5TIT.

And,
I don't know what she thinks I might be suggesting, since it is singly my
husband that I love and he needs no suggestion. Do you?

All I can say is, your husband is either a saint, or a wretchedly desperate
person who can not do any better than to be involved with a totally self-
absorbed, selfish, and inconsiderate person such as you appear to be.
After all, even after having your choice of a call sign condemned by one
of the FCC's top officials, you still refuse to "take the hint" and change it
to something more acceptable. Therefore, one can only draw the
conclusion that you think that you are a law onto yourself, and that you
have every right to do as you please, when you please -- even if it means
giving an unfavorable image to 750,000-plus U.S. radio amateurs. And
the fact that you have done so willingly and by your own request only
makes you look all the worse.

Larry, this a major problem with our society today, people like kim who

People of kim's status, never seem to "take the hint", it completely
escapes them.

Excuse me, JJ. When did a lack of conformity become a "major problem" in
this country? Our forefathers, with their relatively strange political and
social ideas, were hardly conformists.

Do you still have the full text of that message from Hollingsworth, Larry?
If so, please post a copy so we can all see it. I know you posted it before,

As I recall it, there was NO PROOF that Larrah's "Hollingsworth letter"
was the real thing.

We all have to take Larrah's typed-in words as "truth."
