I just have to wonder why no one has made this a sticky...

It seems to be a right popular topic, and one everyone enjoys parusing...

Lets load up the responses and get someone in the Mod Squad to make it so...

All in favor say "aye"

All opposed "nay"

I bet by the end of the weekend we'll know, and I can be hated once again!

I like it expressed like this:

Any one
Any gun
Anywhere
Any time
...anything less is gun control!
This is very similar to the F-14 drivers slogan...Anytime, Anywhere...

It was a very true statement of fact!

I never thought I would see the end of that aircrafts active days...Truely a sad time...

No...

I believe only Radio Operator rates in the Navy when I was in were actually being taught Morse...Along with all the hardware and operations stuff they had to learn...

Since I was a Radar Operator, and only dealt with the tactical operations of the ship, and only operating the commo gear...We were never taught Morse...We just "kacked" up our signals and sent them out plain voice if it wasn't an incrypted net...

I learned enough of the morse code to be fairly adept in listening in and catching most of the messages...And it was mainly for fun...

I've lost some of the ear for it though...

This hijacking has goosed me to get back into it... :lol:

Stevie = Steve

D = Middle Initial

64 = Year of birth

My Dad and I were fiddling around on the internet one day many years ago, and we discovered that people would sign on and register into these chat forums and talk about guns, politics, buy stuff from total strangers over the internet, yet not use their "real" names but "internet handles" like all the people did when the CB radio was big...

[take a breath...]

Dad and I were gluttons for punishment...I still am I suppose...

BTW, "Wife Unit" (wife's handle) came from a dirivative of some lame skit on some saturday night TV show...Duh, big secret...
