[Boatanchors] Sunday HCI 20 Meter Net Puts A Spring In Your March

[Duane Fischer, W8DBF]

Please join us on Sunday March 19th for the HCI 20 meter Net. Coming soon to
a barren yard near you, weeds, the smell of wet rotting last Fall's leaves
you did not rake up and fresh fertilizer for your grass being air dropped by
a flying fleet of feathered fertilizer factories! It's Spring! Nature renews
herself by causing flowers to bloom and your seasonal allergies to kick in
so you can sneeze your nose off! Without a nose bridge what will your
bifocals sit upon? No more naked tree limbs with those ugly places where
your helpful brother-in-law performed surgery with his two cycle powered
chainsaw and tried to stop the sap from oozing out by cauterizing the
wounded limb with florescant pink shower tile silicon seam sealer! Hopefully
the neighbor's cat that came up missing in late September when you
accidentally ran over it while mulching leaves, will have decomposed enough
that you can power rinse what is left out of the drive belt for the mower
blade!

The pre-Net will commence at 12:45 PM EST, (1745 UTC) and the Net proper
begins at 1:15 PM EST, (1815 UTC).

The frequency will be 14.293 MHZ usb +/- for key clicks, mike splatter and a
QSO party from the fifty-first state! Don't tell the inhabitants of
Michigan's Upper Peninsula, who call themselves Yuppers, that they are not
the fifty-first state! Because if you tell them, well, all that wildlife
road kill strung from the northern end of the Mackinaw Bridge to the casino
in Sault Ste. Marie, you will be joining it! Those Yuppers think of
themselves as being in a different country as it is, they only settled for
statehood when the Indians threatened to start serving the roadkill on a
sesame seed bun to tourists if the lower peninsula legislators did not lobby
the U.S. Treasury to make casino tokens legal tender in Yupper land!  Here
is hoping to hear you tomorrow! Come early, stay late! Think Spring!
