Subj : Re: Think You're Stupid?? To : George Pope From : Daryl Stout Date : Fri Jul 16 2021 16:54:00 George, GP> (after she hanged her arse out the window in respionse to his request GP> for a good-bye kiss! I guess the relationbship was over...or each felt the other was too much of a butthole. :P GP> Nah, if I don't like the truth it says, I can only get upset at myself, GP> & I can't be botheredto do so. . . It's like when the doctor tells you something you're already aware of (overweight), and you say "tell me something I don't know"...then he says "your co-pay is $250". GP> I agree; that was a funny line, indeed! I saw one on YouTube where a female ventriloquist from the UK (with a heavy English accent), incorporated hypnotism into the sequence with her dummy...a small monkey. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vbd0FcnFfO0 > At least you're not using a tenderizer to beat the meat with. GP> I did not ask about your teenage years! TMI. . . I'm an amateur baiter. One day, I'll become a master at it. GP> douse in real maple syrup(when I have some) just before eating. . . GP> yum! I still am not a big fan of pancakes...IHOP not withstanding. GP> Seconds, & thirds(hey, I was 16 & had the metabolism of a 300lb tiger) GP> of all. That's the thing...everyone's metabolism is different. > The first two are loaded with pun humor...non-hams wouldn't be able to > understand much of it. GP> There yo go; I'm a non-ham. . . I tried to tell the puns to this young girl, and my brother (who isn't a ham radio operator, either (he has no interest in my hobbies)), said I was being vulgar. I replied "If this WAS vulgar, the FCC would've been all over me!!". > Ah, yes!! The adult beverages (we call them the 807's). I'll have to add > that to my file. GP> Why "807s"? The 807 was originally a beam tetrode vacuum tube, or an amplifier tube. Nowadays, it basically is ham radio slang for "a beer", or otherwise "an adult beverage". > Or the woman sobbing "When I said 'It's Me Or The Radios!!', he said > 'Seven Three'". GP> What's "7-3"? Seven Three is a sign off for "best wishes". Seven Five is for "May God bless you and yours". Eighty Eight is "Love And Kisses"...usually between spouses, engaged hams, or boyfriend/girlfriend. Members of the Quarter Century Wireless Association (QCWA) sign off with "Forty Seven", because the QCWA was incorporated in 1947. It's for ham radio operators who have been licensed at least 25 years, and are currently licensed. I'm a Life Member of it, and a member of the Arklatex Chapter of it...and do two of their weekly traffic nets. GP> So I bought a telegraph machine. And then I bought a second telegraph GP> machine. GP> Now I'm feeling some reMorse. That's like the guy who had a one night stand. He felt sorry for it, so he bought a second companion one to go with it. GP> While feeding some ducks with kids, more ducks turn up. GP> Me "there's loads coming, they must have sent a telegraph" GP> Dad friend "they're birds, they tweeted it" Singing Ventriloquist Darci Lynn Farmer (who won America's Got Talent back in 2017), mentioned to her bunny rabbit, Petunia (who, according to Darci, thinks she's a diva ), about what she did on Twitter..."I tweet". Petunia was horrified, saying "I beg your pardon!!". Daryl ....
