There will be a howling ghould time on Wednesday October 30Th from 6:00-9:00 PM
EST, (2300-0200 UTC). This will be the W9WZE Special Event for the year, do not
miss it! It is the Happy Halli-Ween magical mist that comes together to form a
colorful and novel certificate suitable for framing. Or just hanging around the
neck of one of those skeletons in your closet. This was drawn by Brian Hill and
is the copyrighted property of HCI.
The frequency will be 14.315 Mhz usb. No +/- for teeth chattering, joints
knocking or headless horsemen asking for directions.
If you are courageous enough to harness a howling werewolf and feed him a juicy
Halli-Burger or jab a diet challenged vampire in the rump with a syringe filled
with blood plasma and V/8 juice or snatch a Bat with fangs sharper than a wood
splinter on a wooden casket out of the air barehanded as it swoops by slurping
up mosquitoes laden with West Nile virus - than you are indeed truly brave or
simply incredibly stupid! But you will howl with delight as pumpkins fed with
Viagra explode on their vines like overly ripe tomatoes splattering their slimy
seeds all over passing cars as you fling them from the cover of a tombstone. You
will groan with glee as unsuspecting children step on your pressure sensitive
decorative Halloween doormat and then wet themselves as a Milk Dud curdling
scream emanates from the goblins skull that drops down from the porch roof and
lights up with a yellowish orange glow that comes straight from the bowels of
Hell itself. Well, maybe it is actually from that local AM station playing Acid
Rock from the seventies! You will squeal with pure joy as scurrying Rats with
yellow teeth needing a lot of dental work leap into the air and rip the bottom
out of unsuspecting children's sacks of candy spilling goodies all over the
grass. Not to worry, those battery powered rodents won't eat the candy, but
those bloodshot wide eyed teenagers who may have smoked some pot, rather than
replaced one in a radio chassis, are a definite risk factor worthy of stepping
into one of those little booby trap pits you filled with the slimy guts you
scraped out of the pumpkins you carved with the chain saw.
What fun! What fermentation! What fascinating fantasy from those things that
still go glow in the dark. Be there and get your customized Happy Halli-Ween
certificate, W9WZE QSL card and autographed magic brochure from me, the world's
only totally blind professional Magician/Illusionist. The cost is two dollars to
cover postage, printing and a special envelope that the post office hopefully
won't turn into hamster cage lining material. If you can include a ready to use
return address label, it will be greatly appreciated.
No age restrictions apply. Hallicrafters and Halloween are indeed, timeless. I
hope that many of you check in with your children, grandchildren, nieces,
nephews, borrowed neighborhood youngsters or whomever. Hear you then!
