I had a lady friday almost crying over a 60 dollar repair. She hasn't worked in 6 weeks and is running out of money.
I'd like to pay for her repair - can you contact me?

Re: Costco prohibit carry - No signs posted

Re: Are Ham radios becoming like guns in CA?

Get the free software CHIRP to program the radio.

Re: What Joe Biden Thinks About Guns

I'm not aware of a single issue that Joe Biden and I agree on.
well, maybe not 'issues', but I Joe & I might agree that:

(a) we don't want Bernie as president
(b) Joe shouldn't own an AR-15

Re: Corona Virus (2019-nCoV) from China: Its going to be bad.

I was at Target, out of large hand sanitizer.
Walmart doesn’t even have travel size hand sanitizer.
Went to Amazon- out of stock

better off with home made hand sanitizer anyway:
