>> It will begin with the pre-Net at 12:30 PM EDT, (1630 UTC),

>> frayed wire insulation. Your jeans too if you dribble it!

>> aspirin and a cold shower! A swift kick in the apogee if all
>> else fails!
>>
>> Not only will the Net be co-hosted by a for real live
>> Leprechaun, he is also selling raffle tickets to see if you

>> to kiss the Blarney Stone on live satellite video! Hey! Give
>> him a break! He used to be a stock broker but got busted
>> trying to fix the soles of other Elves!
>>
>> This raffle ticket will also give the winner a chance to try
>> to run across an enchanted rainbow carrying a SX-101a, HT-37
>> and HT-41 without falling through it!  If he makes it to the
>> Leprechauns pot of gold, he has to quickly snatch a handful
>> of gold coins and try to run back across the rainbow before
>> the guardian Troll chops his hand off with a razor sharp UPS
>> box knife! Since the world price for gold is over $1,400 per
>> Troy ounce, buying one of those raffle tickets may be a
>> chance worth taking!
>>
>> Although the FCC does not allow Ham Radio operators to play

>> background one can hear the Irish Rovers hum their classic
>> ballad about the Unicorn and Bing Crosby sings about the
>> wearing of the green,
>>
>> the HHI Net will celebrate the start of its eleventh year of
>> existence.  So set a Shamrock on your vintage gear, get out
>> your lucky four leaf clover and dance a little Irish jig
