[Hammarlund] Killer Snail To Host Sunday HCI Net!

[Duane Fischer W8DBF]

As those of you who have been watching the Whether Weather
channel observed, Michigan has been getting hammered like a
peg on a Play School work bench the past two days.  I had to
flush the rain gauge, twice! This large storm dropped anchor
over MI and emptied the ballast tanks! It thundered on and
off from Thursday evening until after sunrise this morning.
It was so overcast, that my DSS system failed and I missed
both Babar The King Of The Elephants and Rainbow Fish. I do
not pay HBO Family to be disappointed, I get enough of that
from the taxes I pay!

     I knew I was in trouble, when Frogzilla floated by atop
the wooden outhouse from the girl Scout camp down the road!
By the grin on his face, I got the feeling that it just might
have been occupied when it took to the sea! He had his
Captain Nemo hat on and was shouldering a harpoon gun loaded
with a toilet plunger. Right behind him came three wooden
picnic tables with smoking camp site grills riding high and
dry. Some of the smaller Frogs were using ping pong paddles
trying to steer the  picnic tables as the current  carried
them along. Others were busily flipping Water Cress
patties stuffed with Mosquitoes marinated in Jack Daniels
bourbon. I wonder what the Girl Scout counselors were doing
with bourbon?  Cleansing wounds, no doubt!

     Well unless the waters recede, the thunder stops
rattling the fillings in my teeth and the lightning quits
roasting the transformers on the utility poles like overdone
marshmallows over a Girl Scout campfire using a propane tank
equipped with an afterburner, there will not be a 20 meter
net on Sunday June 11th. I am down to my last ten gallons of
gasoline for the Generac generator and I can't find the
neighbor's van to siphon any more! The creep must have moved
it.

     If the water in the backyard goes down enough so I can
flush the toilet without creating clouds of smelly bubbles,
if the little Frogletts in amphibian survival training unhook
the blasted life boats from my 20 meter trap on the vertical,
and if I can convince the pizza delivery girl to swim over
here with a double pepperoni with extra cheese, then I will
be on the air for the HCI net!

     So just in case, float on by at 12:45 PM EDT, 1645 UTC),
for the frequency sump pump scum sucking session. Then cast
your fate to the wind and drop your Boat's anchor at 1:15 PM
EDT, (1715 UTC).  Remember the frequency is 14.293 +/- for
key clicks, your dog's Ticks, mike splatter and adjacent
excessive chatter, from Shamoo the capacitor crunching killer
Snail!  If you can't make it for that bit of nautical fun and
boat anchor dropping, then cruise on by between 1:15 PM EDT,
(1715 UTC), until 2:59 PM, (1859 UTC) for the marine life
segment.  Here you can listen as I try to key the mike, write
notes on waterproof Braille paper and ride a Sea Horse on
loan from Sea World! If that is not enough to get you out of
the suit bleaching chlorinated swimming pool, off the
bacteria contaminated beach, out of the Mustang convertible
before the Cops realize it is stolen, and in front of your
hotter than a Hog in a sona Halli, then consider this.
Frogzilla will be offering full color glossy prints of his
Frogship, auto-footed by himself and eighteenth cousin
Kermit, along with a collection of tales from the Frogzilla
Files, to some lucky check in tomorrow! And all you have to
do is take your medication like the Psychiatrist ordered and
promise not to break any dishes if the cook catches you
trying to sneak a peak down her top and dumps your hot Clam
chowder in your tank top pocket!

     This could be more fun than a water balloon fight at a
water soluble make up artists convention! So loosen up those
electronic paddles, wade on in and bring a bucket to bail the
boat anchor out with. At the rate I am going, maybe to bail
me out too! Did brother Noah's Ark have a brig?
