555

It is 5:55 am and sleep escapes me. Many would say "impossible" as I once was gifted with the ability to sleep in the top rack of the helo chief's quarters right under the arresting gear (between the 2 and 3 wires I think). Basically pretend you are sleeping under the runway at O'Hare. Tonight for some reason I was waking up every hour on the hour from 11pm on. Oh well, cup of tea blog a little then see what happens.

Thanksgiving is upon us and the stores are once again giving no thanks but hoping for a black friday shot in the financial arm. Some stores are even opening before friday gets there. just makes me wonder if any of it is worth anything. I think that IF I can get to sleep thursday night at a reasonable time, I might just boycott the whole commercialized thing and wait till saturday afternoon. How I miss TG & Y this time of year.......

With a general or extra class radio amateur license, you could at least hold a late nite conversation with your eldest son using home made antennas, and possibly home made radios. See http://smallwonderlabs.com/Retro-75.htm for Christmas present ideas... :D
I'll build you one too!
