WEEK 42 OF 2007-OUR
27TH YEAR
JOEY
BISHOP
1918-10/17/07
GROWING UP IN NYC WAS THE BEST...BUT BEING A TEENAGER IN
1960'S NY WAS BEYOND THE BEST...WE THOUGHT WE HAD IT ALL...THINKING BACK WE
PROBABLY DID...JUST LIKE KIDS TODAY WE HAD OUR HEROS..THE ONES YOU LOOKED TO FOR
HOW TO DRESS WHAT TO SAY...HOW TO SAY IT...HOW TO BE TOO COOL FOR SCHOOL OR
ANYTHING ELSE..FOR THE KIDS THAT WERE THE SURFER TYPE IT WAS THE BEACH BOYS..FOR
OUR CROWD IT WAS FRANK,DINO,PETER,SAMMY & JOEY...OCEAN'S 11, SERGEANTS 3,
ROBIN & THE SEVEN HOODS....WALK LIKE THEM.. TALK LIKE THEM...WE
TRIED...
THE LAST OF THE "PACK" LEFT US THIS WEEK...JOEY BISHOP
BORN IN THE BRONX IN 1918 BECAME A SILENT KEY...ENDING FOR MANY OF US TRULY A
GREAT ERA...
LAST NITE ON WABC 77AM MARK SIMONE PLAYED THE VERY LAST
INTERVIEW JOEY HAD GIVEN ANYONE AND IT WAS WITH MARK SEVERAL YEARS
AGO...LISTENING TO THAT TAPE AND SOME OF THE STORIES...WE WERE RITE...IT WAS A
GREAT TIME AND WE DID HAVE IT ALL!
RIP JOEY..WE WILL MISS YOU .. AND THE STYLE YOU AND THE
"PACK" GAVE US...IT WAS A TIME LIKE NO OTHER IN AMERICA .. A TIME THAT
NOW LOOKS LIKE WE WILL NEVER SEE IT AGAIN IN REPEATS.
LISTEN TO
US
THE EARLY PART OF LAST
WEEK WE GOT THE FOLLOWING E-MAIL:
Hi
there,
My name is Dave Bushong. I am the host for a blog and
podcast called
"99 Hobbies", where we discuss the ninety-nine hobbies that
make up Ham
Radio. I sort of made up the number, and my guess is the
actual number
is higher than that.
Anyway, my reason for this email is
to ask for a short, telephone
interview with you. I'd like to talk
a
little about the club's history, its mission and goals, and also to
let
people know how to donate equipment to you.
Feel free to visit my site,
at http://www.99hobbies.com to get an idea
of what we do here, and as well,
listen to any of the podcasts listed
at the top-right of the site (click
"more").
Looking forward to hearing from you soon!
All the best,
and 73,
Dave

WOW...PODCAST...BLOG.....DOES THIS SOUND GREAT OR
WHAT...ONLY PROBLEM IS .. WHAT IS THAT STUFF..REMEMBER WE ARE STILL IN THE
VIC-20 ERA WHEN IT COMES TO COMPUTERS...SO WE HEARD THE WORDS BUT HAVE NO REAL
CLUE ON PODS AND BLOGS...
WE LEARNED
QUICKLY!
AFTER SEVERAL
EMAILS BACK AND FORTH...A VISIT TO DAVE'S SITE AND A PHONE CHAT THE WHOLE
CONCEPT BECAME MUCH CLEARER AND THE INTERVIEW WAS ON.
SO GO TO DAVE'S
SITE....LOOK IN THE UPPER RIGHT HAND CORNER, MAKE SURE YOUR SPEAKERS ARE ON AND
LISTEN TO DAVE & I TALK ABOUT THE "22 CREW" FROM THE EARLY DAYS TO THE
PRESENT...WHEN YOU GET DONE LISTENING LOOK AROUND THE SITE IT IS
FASCINATING...
IT IS ALSO
AMAZING HOW HIS IDEA OF THERE IS SOMETHING IN HAM RADIO FOR EVERYONE COINCIDES
WITH OUR PREMISE THAT IN A CLASSROOM THERE IS A FACET OF HAM RADIO THAT WILL
INTEREST AND EXCITE EVERY STUDENT.
WE GO HAND IN
HAND AND NEVER KNEW EACH OTHER TILL THIS WEEK. SO WHEN YOU FINISH READING
#42 YOU GO LISTEN OK?
A'HOY

UP ALL NITE WITH THE "22 CREW".. DANCING, EATING, YAKKING, AND A FEW OTHER

WHEN THE "22 CREW" REALIZED IT
WAS TIME FOR A WEB SITE THE DATE WAS SOMETIME AROUND THE LATE
1980'S.

ABOUT AS FAR AS WE HAVE PROGRESSED WITH COMPUTERS SO IMAGINE WHAT WE KNEW IN
1989 GIVE OR TAKE...
ON A TRIP TO CALIFORNIA AND THE ARRL
SW CONVENTION WAY BACK THEN WE MET BILL-N6MQS...HIS COMPANY ARTSCI.NET HAD A
BOOTH THERE ALSO....WE GOT TO TALKING AND HE EXPLAINED HOW ARTSCI COULD GET US
ON THE NET AND HOW WE COULD DO THIS AND HOW WE COULD DO THAT PLUS THE GREAT PART
WAS THAT ARTSCI DEALT WITH HAMMY STUFF SO ALREADY THEY WERE FAMILIAR WITH OUR
NEEDS...
FIRST IMPRESSIONS MEAN A LOT AND RITE

DAY ARTSCI.NET HANDLES OUR WEB SITE AND ALL OUR EMAIL
NEEDS AND THEY ARE THE BEST...WELL THIS WEEK THEY ARE EVEN BETTER....BILL READ
