Hi Richard,
first of all, great verses!
Second, I saw your call, and I think I worked you sometime, along time ago, years ago!
Maybe on 20, 15, or 10.
I have a new call of course, but I like those old calls too, because sometimes, one actually comes to mind that I worked years ago when I did have hf, or, when I was at a friends shack.
73,
Trippy, ac8s

The point I was attempting to make in my only post on Trippy's trials
was that when one posts a subject line like: "If I can't do this or
that, I don't want to live", the issue runs much deeper than an
inability to solve problems unless the writer is clearly engaging in
hyperbole. I have faced many things in my almost 55 years in this
fallen world, but none of them have killed me yet. When my physical
death does come, all problems will be solved whether technical or not.
(ISAIAH 57:1) The righteous perisheth, and no man layeth it to heart:
and merciful men are taken away, none considering that the righteous is
taken away from the evil to come . 2 He shall enter into peace: they
shall rest in their beds, each one walking in his uprightness. (PSALMS
116:15) Precious in the sight of the LORD is the death of his saints.
(1 CORINTHIANS 15:55) O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is
thy victory? Respectfully: Richard Wells, WD5CMZ
