[sarex] Early pass this morning

[Larry Faehling <kl7ibv@xxxxxxxxx>]

Well, I finally got to work the ISS.  This morning at about 1146UTC I 
was dozing in bed when I heard "NA1SS calling CQ".  So I jumped up and 
managed to be the last station on the pass to work him just before he 
turned it back to packet.  Pretty cool.  I had connected to the MIR 
packet setup a few times when it was still up, but this is my first 
time to hook up with ISS, and talk to a live person.  He was kind of in 
a hurry, as they had to get the cameras ready to photograph the 
hurricane.

73, Larry

There are two theories to arguing with women. Neither one works.

Do not walk behind me, for I may not lead. Do not walk ahead of me, for 
I may not follow. Do not walk beside me either. Just pretty much leave 
me the hell alone.

If you think nobody cares if you're alive, try missing a couple of car

I wished the buck stopped here; I could use a few.
