WEEK 3 OF 2008-OUR 28TH YEAR
P R E S I D E N T ?
WE USED TO THINK WE KNEW ... WE MADE PREDICTIONS...WE STILL MAY BE RIGHT...BUT AFTER HAVING CNN & FOX PLAYING ALL DAY YESTERDAY...LOOKS LIKE ABOUT ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN...SO THAT BEING THE CASE...LETS GO FOR A SURE THING...
V I C E
P R E S I D E N T
WHILE OUR PRESIDENTIAL PREDICTIONS TURN OUT TO BE NO BETTER THAN ANYONE ELSE'S ONE THING WE NOW KNOW FOR SURE IS THE VP...AND HERE HE IS:
AND NOT ONLY DO WE KNOW HIM...YOU KNOW HIM ALSO...IF YOU HAVE BEEN WITH THE "22 CREW" OVER THE LAST 20+ YEARS EITHER ON 21.395 MHz OR 7.238 MHz YOU KNOW THE VP...
NOT ONLY DO YOU KNOW HIM BUT 1,000'S OF NYC SCHOOL CHILDREN KNOW HIM ALSO...HE USED TO TRAVEL THE ROADS OF THE USA IN HIS NOT CHEVROLET BUT GIANT 18 WHEEL MONSTER TRUCK WITH HIS 3 LEGGED PIT BULL DOG AND COMPANION...
IN THE "22 CREW" CLASSROOM WE HAD A MAP OF THE USA PROVIDED BY HUGH-AC4HY AND EVERYTIME THE VP CHECKED IN WE PUT A PIN IN THE MAP AND TRACKED HIM ALONG THE WAY...KIND OF LIKE A FRED FLINTSTONE GPS IN RETROSPECT...
THE FIRST TIME WE MET THE VP IN PERSON WAS DAYTON..MANY MANY YEARS AGO...HE BROUGHT THE TRUCK....AND HE BROUGHT THE DOG...WHEN HE ARRIVED THE CAB DOOR OPENED .. THE DOG JUMPED OUT FOLLOWED BY THE DOGS TOY...AN 18 LB BOWLING BALL AND THEN THE VP FOLLOWED...SO WHO IS THIS POLITICAL PERSONALITY?
K O 4 Q T
S T E V E
W E E D
YES HE IS THE VP BUT NOT OF THE USA....STEVE IS THE NEWLY ELECTED VP OF THE EL CAJON AMATEUR RADIO CLUB....HIS TERM AS VP HAS JUST BEGUN AND YOU CAN SEE HIS VERY FIRST ARTICLE FOR THE "EL CAJON COUNTERPOISE" AT
THE "COUNTERPOISE" IS THE NEWSLETTER OF THE EL CAJON CLUB AND YOU CAN READ STEVE'S FIRST ARTICLE BY GOING TO THE ABOVE LINK SCROLL DOWN TO THE 3RD SELECTION JAN 08 AND TAKE A LOOK AT THE GREAT WORK OUR PAL AND MEMBER IS DOING.
WE WOULD LIKE TO ADD THAT YOU WILL BE ABLE TO MEET STEVE IN PERSON ALONG WITH US AT THE UPCOMING "22 CREW NATIONAL TEACHERS MEETING" IN LAS VEGAS AND AT THE ARRL SW CONVENTION
BOTH OF THESE EVENTS SERVE VERY WELL TO BRING HAM RAIDO TO CLASSROOMS AROUND THE COUNTRY AS A THEME FOR TEACHING USING OUR EDUCOM PROGRAM...OBVIOUSLY THE TEACHERS MEETING IS TOTAL EDUCOM .. THE SW CONVENTION THAT WE HAVE BEEN ATTENDING FOR YEARS HAS BEEN AN INCREDIBLE ASSET TO BRINGING IN NEW EDUCATORS THROUGHOUT THE WEST AND FOLKS THAT MAY NOT BE TEACHERS BUT BELIEVE IN THE VALUE OF HAM RADIO IN EDUCATION...WE HOPE YOU WILL BE WITH VP STEVE AND MYSELF AT THESE UPCOMING EVENTS.
MAYOR,
WE HAVE A
COMPLAINT
WE STILL FIRMLY BELIEVE THAT OUR OWN MAYOR MIKE WILL ENTER THE PRESIDENTIAL RUN SO BEFORE HE DOES THIS MAY BE A GOOD TIME TO COMPLAIN...
.....OR AT LEAST TELL THE WORLD VIA "APPLE SLICES"
A WEEK AGO AS WE SAT HERE PUTTING WEEK 2 TOGETHER YOU READ AT THE END THAT THERE WERE NO TRIPS PLANNED FOR THIS PAST WEEK...LUCKILY WE WERE WRONG...WE ACTUALLY PICKED UP 2 MISSIONS LATE LAST SUNDAY NITE...ONE TO TOM'S RIVER THE NEXT TO CAPE COD...
TUESDAY WE DID THE NJ RUN AND AS YOU KNOW WE TOOK THE CAR RATHER THAN THE CREW MOBILE SINCE ONE GETS 10MPG AND THE OTHER GETS 30 IT WAS AN EASY CHOICE AND I WANT TO THANK WA4LT & WY8I FOR TAKING THE NET ON SUCH SHORT NOTICE BUT NOW ON TO THE:
COMPLAINT: DO YOU DRIVE IN YOUR HOME TOWN? DOES YOU CAR SHAKE, SQUEAK, CREAK, RATTLE AND CONSTANTLY NEED THE FRONT END ALIGNED? DO THEY PAVE YOUR ROADS? IF THEY HAVE TO DIG UP YOUR STREET DO THEY FIX IT SO IT IS RELATIVELY SMOOTH?
WE BET IF YOU DRIVE YOUR CAR HERE TO CREW HQ YOU WILL FIND SQUEAKS AND RATTLES YOU NEVER KNEW YOU HAD:
TUESDAY JAN 15 ABOUT 3PM
THATS THE CORNER OF BROADWAY AND HOUSTON ST TRAVELING EAST ON HOUSTON...LOOK AT THE ROAD SURFACE...THATS CONSIDERED GOOD HERE...AT LEAST NO CRATERS...OH AND FOR YOU OL TIME HAMMY'S IF YOU REMEMBER BARRY ELECTRONICS...JUST MAKE A RITE ON THIS CORNER AND 3 BLOCKS DOWN WAS NYC'S LAST HAM STORE LONG AGO...BUT ON TO ROADS
HERE IS WHAT MOST OF OUR BIG APPLE ROAD SURFACES ARE LIKE "ALL HOLES ALL THE TIME"
BECAUSE WHEN THEY GET DONE DOING THIS:
SOMEBODY DUMPS SOME TAR AND LEAVES FOR THE NEXT HOLE....NOW JERRY SEINFELD MAY HAVE 35 OR SO VINTAGE PORSCHE'S JUST UP THE BLOCK IN A GARAGE BUT YOU CAN BET WHEN HE WANTS TO DRIVE ONE IT LEAVES THE ISLAND ON A FLATBED....
WANT TO FIND OUT ALL THE SQUEAKS AND RATTLES YOU NEVER KNEW YOU HAD CMON OVER...AND MAYOR MIKE BEFORE YOU MOVE TO WASHINGTON COULD YOU HELP US OUT HERE ON THE ROAD!
