Barry,
DS> It only allows 5 counties...so for now, I just have Pulaski
DS> (Little Rock). At one time, I picked the counties to the
DS> northwest, and southwest, as that is how our severe weather
DS> usually arrives.
BM> Makes sense, though I'd probably add one to the west. <rs!>
I had that done...but going due west, you get part of the 2
counties to the northwest and southwest respectively.
BM> Pretty much the theme for a lot of the ads: So-and-so promised this and
BM> this and when got into office did that and something else. Counter-ad says
BM> the opposite, of course, ...Glad they're done and we can start on those for
BM> the next election!
When I went to pay my house insurance premium today, one of the agents
said when he went to early vote, that he asked "Now that I've voted,
can we stop the mudslining ads from coming into my radio and TV??!!". :P
DS> The blonde can't rememeber the address, so the fire chief asks
DS> how they will get there. She replies "Duh!! Big Red Truck!!" <G>.
BM> Yeah! You think they're going to arrive in their on cars?! Not enough
BM> parking!
Never mind no place for the dalmatian.
BM> As long as not D-Moon -- that's the network for Hams inthe proctology
BM> profession!
One ham is a retired gastroenterologist. I am what they term a
"Volunteer Examiner", in giving the license exams (at one time, the
FCC did that). But, I gave this guy his Extra Class exam...and he
asked me to get him "a jazzy callsign". So, I got him AG5AS -- and
at a local club meeting, they played the deal from Bowser and Blue,
"Praise To The Colorectal Surgeon". They said "Dr. Jack...this is
for you". <G> Bowser And Blue also have 2 other songs..."Benign
Prostatic Hyperplasia (The Prostate Song)", and "My Vasectomy". You
can find them on YouTube...all are a scream!!
BM> Like that WX1THDR guy -- aw heck, what's your call sign?
It's now WX4QZ...there are 2 alternate phonetics.
1) Whistled X-ings (Crossings) For Quiet Zones. In relation to
trains, Federal Law requires the engineer to sound the locomotive
horn or whistle in the pattern of two longs, one short, and one
long blast (--.- the equivalent to the Morse Code of the letter Q),
from 1/2 mile ahead of the crossing, until the time the locomotive
is in the crossing. A Quiet Zone is where the horn is not sounded,
except for meeting another train on another track, or in the event
of an emergency (someone trying to beat the train at the crossing
by going around the gates).
2) Wild X-Citing For Quizines. In relation to food, "quizine" is
not how you spell cuisine. But, in Louisiana, for a dog, they
spell Fido as Phideaux...so, there you are. <G>
BM> Probably now a general 'advertising for coming attractions'.
Sort of like a picture where this woman is holding a rooster,
and announces "Meet Mister Pecker". :P
BM> I have an over-the-counter calcium supplement prescribed; for a while
BM> was also Vitamin D (again OTC) but several years ago found getting into the
BM> too-much range (which is a different form of bad) so discontinued
BM> the specific but continuing the adjunct (so no more Vit D itself but to
BM> continue to Calcium with D).
I used to take the Centrum Chewables, but don't anymore.
BM> I'm not picking my nose; I'm pointing to my brain!
Or the cartoon where Frosty The Snowman is in the store, looking for
carrots. The caption noted "Frosty Is Caught Picking His Nose". <G>
Daryl
