Break out those snowblowers and see if you can find my Hustler 6BTV vertical
among the snowdrifts higher than the gonads of a Giraffe! If you are the lucky
one to find it, you win the right to dig it out with my trusty barnyard manure
shovel, which has handled a lot of bull over the years. Just don't freeze to
death out there and go horizontal on me, as that polarity does not conduct
electrons well when the feedline is stiff!	
	
If you get the idea that I am snowed in, you are getting the correct picture.
Nonetheless I will attempt to do the Sunday February 1st HCI 20 meter Net from
my remote location in Hawaii! Yea, don't I wish! No grass skirts here, just a
snowman with a frozen loin cloth!	
	
The pre-Net commences with the lighting of the blow torch to knock the icicles
off the Mosley TA-33 at 12:45 PM EST, (1745 UTC). The Net proper, will start at
1:15 PM EST, (1815 UTC). The frequency will be 14.293 Mhz usb +/- for key
clicks, mike splatter and the hum of the huffing and puffing gerbils running on
their little treadmill trying to generate enough body heat to keep from dropping
over frozen as solid as an Eskimo Pie that fell into a vat of liquid Nitrogen. I
spiked their hot chocolate with some amphetamines just to give them a little
kick in the old apogee!      	
	
I hope to hear a lot of you on those beauties that still go glow in the dark
tomorrow, light them up and keep those waves warm! Remember, if you can hear
your knees knocking you need to bump up the excitor and make those finals glow
brighter so they emit infrared and warm you up! Never mind that rash or the body
hair falling out! At least it isn't from that disease you caught from the
stripper you dated when the traveling carnival came to town when you were a
senior in high school.   	
	
It is so cold here that your words freeze in the air and drop to the ground and
break apart into alphabet soup vowels and consonants. If you spit into the wind
it comes back as an ice ball and smacks you right between the eyes! If you pass
gas out the southern exit pipe, it turns into an icicle in your boxers, like the
mother of all hemorrhoids! So let the hot air of those Halli's glow and I will
hear you tomorrow, hopefully, as these earmuffs block out anything less than S5
signals. So wind them up guys and let's blow some heat up old Jack Frost's
parka, give him a hot flash and maybe Spring will spring earlier!
