WEEK 48 OF 2008-OUR 28TH YEAR
THE LONGEST RUNNING SHOW ON BROADWAY
STARTING IN 1924 THE
MACY'S THANKSGIVING DAY PARADE IS TRULY THE LONGEST RUNNING SHOW ON BROADWAY
MISSING ONLY THREE YEARS, FOR WORLD WAR II, AS THE RUBBER USED IN THE GIANT
BALLOONS WAS NEEDED FOR THE WAR EFFORT.
THIS YEAR THE WX WAS
PERFECT...MEANING NO WIND! IT CAN RAIN IT CAN SNOW BUT AS LONG AS IT DOES
NOT BLOW.
WIND IS THE DOWNFALL OF
THIS PARADE. THE BALLOONS BECOME DIFFICULT TO HANDLE AND HAVE TO BE KEPT
CLOSE TO THE GROUND..BUT NOT IN THIS YEARS 84TH ANNUAL PARADE. YES IT WAS
A LITTLE CHILLY BUT NO WIND OR RAIN OR SNOW.
THE FOLKS SEEN HERE ARE THE ACTUAL BALLOON HANDLERS AND THE ONLY
ONES WHO GET TO WEAR THOSE GREAT HATS.
THE FOLKS SEEN HERE ARE THE ACTUAL BALLOON HANDLERS AND THE ONLY

RANDY-KB3IFH IS THE OFFICIAL PRINTER OF THE "22 CREW" HE CAN BE YOUR "OFFICIAL" PRINTER ALSO. NEXT TIME YOU NEED CARDS CONTACT HIM...TRUST US--YOU WILL NEVER NEED (OR WANT) ANOTHER PRINTER!
WHY WE TAKE MOBILES FIRST
IF YOU CHECK INTO THE CLASSROOM NET YOU KNOW THAT NO MATTER WHAT MOBILES GO FIRST. CAL-W9JAN IS USUALLY THE FIRST STUDENT TO SCHOOL AND WE GET HIM FIRST AT 7AM. HOWEVER IF YOU HEAR A MOBILE AND YOU HEAR CAL THAT MOBILE GETS PRIORITY NO MATTER WHAT.
THIS COMES FROM YEARS OF THE "22 CREWMOBILE" AND KNOWING JUST HOW TUFF IT IS FOR THE 4 WHEELERS OR 18 WHEELERS...
BUT IMAGINE THE 2 WHEELERS:
THAT BOYS AND GIRLS IS KA9PGC IN THE SNOW AT 7AM NY TIME CHECKING INTO THE CLASSROOM NET.
JOHN-KA9PGC CAME TO US FOR THE FIRST TIME ON 10/18...WE GOT TO TALKING AND FOUND OUT HE IS "MOTORCYCLE MOBILE".
IF ANYONE EVER ASKS WHY MOBILES GO FIRST ON THE CLASSROOM NET JUST SHOW THEM THE ABOVE PICTURES!
AFTER LOOKING AT JOHN THE "CREWMOBILE" DOES NOT SEEM LIKE SUCH A BAD DEAL!
THANKS FOR BEING THERE JOHN AND GLAD TO TAKE YOU FIRST WHENEVER WE HEAR YOU.
LAST WEEK ON THE AIRPLANE...
AS MANY OF YOU
KNOW .. THANKS TO THE ELDEST HARMONIC ... JESSICA-KB2DLX WE ARE ABOUT TO
BECOME A GRANPA IN MARCH OF O9.
JESS IS STILL WORKING
AND WILL CONTINUE RIGHT UP UNTIL JAN 1 ACCORDING TO THE DOCTORS
& LATEST PLAN...
THIS IS A GOOD THING
SINCE WE ARE SURE YOU WANT YOUR NEW VICE PRESIDENT TO BE SAFE AND
COMFORTABLE WHEN HE HAS TO FLY SOMEPLACE:
ON THE LEFT IS
JESSICA-KB2DLX THEN THE PLANE'S PILOT THEN....VP BIDEN AND THEN THE PLANE'S
CO-PILOT.
AS THE FLIGHT ATTENDANT
WHATEVER HAPPENS IN THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT IS HER RESPONSIBILITY AND SHE
TELLS US IT WAS QUITE AN HONOR TO MAKE THE NEW VP FEEL RIGHT AT HOME. ONCE
THE INAUGURATION TAKES PLACE THE NEW PRES AND VP WILL BE ON GOV'T PLANES BUT
TILL THEN...KB2DLX IS IN CHARGE.
AND DEAR OL DAD IS NOT
WITHOUT FRINGE BENEFITS. ONE OF THE 15 OR SO SECRET SERVICE AGENTS ON THE
PLANE WITH VP BIDEN GOT TO TALKING TO JESSICA. ONCE SHE TOLD HIM HER
FATHER WAS A HAM AND IS "AT THE CORE OF THE BIG APPLE" HE PASSED ALONG TO HER
THIS BEAUTY:
THATS A GENUICE SECRET
SERVICE LATEST ISSUE LAPEL PIN ONLY GIVEN TO NY AGENTS. NOTE THE BIG APPLE
BACKGROUND. WHAT COULD BE A BETTER ADDITION TO A "22 CREW" GOLF
SHIRT!
NOW WE DON'T KNOW IF
THAT PIN WILL GET US OUT OF FLORIDA SPEEDING TICKETS BUT WE SURE HOPE SO AS
BEFORE YOU KNOW IT ALL OF US WILL BE TOGETHER AGAIN IN:
O R L A N D
