    The SOS part is right - a bit more practice is needed on that straight key to help correct your "fist".:LOL: (.... .. .... ..)

    Your RST is 999, though!(y)

    But the formatting of the forum posts doesn't lend itself well to using the regulation spacing between letters and words and makes us all look like LIDS.;)

    The zebra went off to play the referee in a game between the lions and the bears. Though in those games the ref tends to be eaten.:eek:

    Or it's hiding in plain sight in front of a white picket fence.:whistle::D

    Learned and never forgot that line to help remember the CW letter z when preparing for HAM license. First thing that comes to mind when seeing CW. You know, much like "Bad Beer Rots Our Young Guts But Vodka Goes Well" or ELI the ICE man or Old Homes Are Houses Of Angels

    A lot of fond memories.. :)
