I used to read a lot more than I do now. I still enjoy it, but I don't
get to as many books as I used to...

 DS>   Yep...Firefox for Android. I also use the Dashlane Password Manager.
 DS> That way, it creates funky passwords for me, and remembers them for me.

Yeah - Safari does that for me as well.

 DS> callsign...and what another ham thought E.D. actually meant!! .

LOL

 JA>I've been on stage off and on since I was 14 years old - got over 'mic

again??!!" .

LOL - I was in a play in November - that was a first for me! I meant
as a musician for years, and as a singer/songwriter for the past several
years now.

 DS>   My BBS is the only one I logon to. As with other hobbies, it's a

 DS> But, everyone is so busy nowadays. Then, you have summer vacation, etc.
 DS> coming up soon...never mind folks going to Hamvention.

The one in Bartlett was a couple of weeks ago, but we didn't go. I have
fond memories of going there with my wife over a couple of years, but
really no reason to go this time. :-)

We also went to Huntsville a few years ago, but only once. It was fun,
but not planning to go back for that. It's just not a major thing for
us, for several reasons. 

We are planning to go to Superman Days again in Metropolis in June.
Looking forward to that!

 DS>   If I could get a financial benefit, I'd love to do one FINAL out of
 DS> state trip via Amtrak to the Duke City Hamfest in Albuquerque in
 DS> September...but, I'm not overly optimistic.

We've never ridden on the train - we've talked about it before,
but never did it. Our son lives in Indy now, and the train goes to
St. Louis. 

 JA>More interesting stuff! Thanks! I always get a ton of info from you. :-)

 DS>   That'll be a dollar two ninety-eight processing fee. Oops...I
 DS> forgot!! No pecuniary interest on ham radio!! (hi hi).

:-)





... I found a piano stool. I thought they were housebroken.
