Sorry about that, Mike. It was a clear over-reaction to your three (3)
messages in this newsgroup about me spamming the newsgroups, mixed with a
throbing toothache and not enough sleep the night before because of it. My
decision to leave Amateur radio is based solely on personal reasons,
including a lack of interest at the moment, other distractions in my life,
and so on. As I said elsewhere, it has been fun, but it's time for me to
move on. Take care.

Stewart

Well there you have it. The number one reason for leaving amateur
radio is probably death (SK for the pnone impaired). Or maybe it's a
lack of interest.

No nefarious conspiracy theories necessary.

I wonder what the other reasons for people leaving the ARS might be?

Why, are you looking for a way out too? I'll be glad to help.

I know the way. Too bad there are so many hangers on that only the
actuarial tables can deal with them.

I'll be glad to help.

Tell me about your real military experience again, oh serviceless one.

Hi, hi!

Hi,hi!

Before you start "laughing", Brain, at least Brian has acknowledged that
which he has and hasn't done. You continue to misrepresent yourself.

And there is no law, rule or regulation that REQUIRES his having been in
the service. Not since 1974.

Aw go easy on him, he's just in his "grasp at any straw mode" again
Steve. He was a USAF shipping/receiveing clerk for cripes sake. How
far down the "service" chain is THAT?! But life demands that everybody
needs at least one brag point in life and his "clerical service" is as
close as he's gotten to having one. He sure as hell doesn't have any
in ham radio or in any other field that I know about. So ya handle his
predictable yelping from obscurity, which is typical of his types,
with common good humor. A pat on the head, "Good boy, good BOY
Putzlet!" "Now go fetch that box of file folders I need". The usual.

Yawn

You mean how much lower than a rear area radio clerk, perhaps...?!?!

Yeh, go easy on me. I've got more military experience in my little
finger than Kelly's ever going to have. And we probably would have
had far fewer missing pallets if I had been a box kicker.

How far down the "service" chain is THAT?!

Everyone played their role except you. Even the box kickers outranked
you. Best you can do is sing "Rubber Band Man" and "In The Navy" on
Karoake Night.

But life demands that everybody
needs at least one brag point in life and his "clerical service" is as

Try meteorology.

He sure as hell doesn't have any
in ham radio or in any other field that I know about.

What I don't do is run on at the mouth about military experience that
I don't have. Sound familiar?

Hi, hi!

You got Seven Hostile Actions, too?

Like the time you tried to get me to put up an antenna at your house?
Or are you so senile that you thought I lived there?

But what did you learn from your service, Brain?

Obviously honesty and honor were not among them.

Who says being in the Armed Forces is the ONLY way to have "played thier
role", Brain? Every war this nation has won was due to service and sacrifices
made at home, too.

A clerk in the meterology service.

You and Lennie have something in common...You were both clerks.

in ham radio or in any other field that I know about.

What you DO "run on at the mouth about" is Amateur Radio experiences you
don't have.

I am sure we can look under any mossy rock and find you or some of your
kin close by...

Hoot, whine on, keep reaching for that last straw, you just ain't
making it yet Putzlet. At all.

Of course I didn't outrank anybody. I just told the Chief what I
needed and poof, job done without me having to deal with your types.

Who says being in the Armed Forces is the ONLY way to have "played thier
role", Brain? Every war this nation has won was due to service and sacrifices
made at home, too.

The son of a next-door neighbor, an only child who flunked the draft
physical in 1942 signed aboard the Merchant Marine. During a convoy
run to Murmansk in a ship loaded with steel rails a Nazi torpedo found
it's mark and the ship went under in a half minute with all hands, all
of 'em civilians.

My father was 'way too old for WW2 service but he worked 12-14 hour
days six-seven days a week building tanks at the Baldwin Locomotive
Works thru VJ day.

The Putzlet woulda folded if he ever had to work that hard that long.
'Course he wouldn't have to worry about it because he couldn't build a
tank if his life depended on it. Hell, he still can't even figger out
how to string a simple wire antenna up in his own back yard and tune
it.

Yer fulla **** as usual, show me the post.

kin close by...

Boink.
