Is that all you got to say there Joe? I don't know, I guess it's my check in time. We didn't hear anything Larry. The list came in and then that's it. We didn't hear you come back at all. So that's why I keyed up there but I'm guessing you called and I'm here. And I don't know if you got Cliff. Cliff came in after Jeanette and 0HC. I just heard a little blip of him so I don't know if you picked it up or not. But other than that, hang on a second here. Let me take a look. If you would put Dale V01UPZ on the list. He just sent me a text there. Alright Dale? Come on Larry. Do you want to say anything? I was out a good 45 miles on the bike today. First time since Saturday. And I was a mile an hour slower than I've been lately. And on a three hour ride that's three miles less. But I did it. As I say it's not as fast as you go or how far you go. It's as long as you go. So there you go. There I go. It was a beautiful morning. A little warm out there. I think it was about 86 when I left the house. A little before 3 AM. So it was a little warm out there. And I smelled a little bit of smoke but the air was... I didn't see any particulate matter. So that's what I'm more worried about for even that. Anyway that's it for here. You got a big list so I'll send it back to you. It's KJ7Z. Thank you Larry. Okay Joe. Well I'm glad you got some writing in anyway. And hey if you're not having fun or whatever then it's time to quit I guess. Anyway glad you're chalking up the miles there like you used to and getting back into the rhythm of things. You have a great day and we'll talk to you later. That sounds a little bit too much for writing out there. Anyway, Art is up next there. Gene Arthur. One partner in crime over there. And hey KJ Art go ahead. Good morning Larry and everybody else on the World Wide Friendship. This is November 8 Tango, tell Julie and Art here in sunny Springfield isle. I've got 75 degrees Fahrenheit and I'm going to get up almost 90 today. Let's see, I don't know Larry. Between you and Dale you guys got me confused. I had you down last week to do the Nat and Dale this week. I think you two need to get on the same page or something here. Oh terrible situation that if you guys are driving me nuts. I can't keep up with none of this. But anyhow I'll just say 73 to everybody. Y'all take care, stay warm, stay dry, stay cool no matter where you're at in the world. And always wake down the mic. Wake down the mic before you give it back to Nat Control. So with that I will wake down the mic Larry. It's coming your way from November 8 Tango. Look out for Julie. Well okay Art. I've got my calendar made out here in advance. I think I've got it several months in advance there. Anyway I've got the 7th and the 21st for this month. And let me see the 4th and the 18th of September. So there you go. Anyway if you need help just give me a buzz. Alright you take care. Hey you got 75 and I got 75.9 so it's almost 76 degrees here. So yep it's going up to 90 supposedly. And as soon as the nets over I've got to get out and do some more pressure washing in my driveway. I got part of it done yesterday and going to do some more today. It gets a little hot out there doing that pressure washing and hard on the back. Anyway everybody have a great day Art and we'll talk to you later. V86 GRZ Bill. Go ahead Bill. This is repeater station 6. This is R. This is R. Hey Larry and everybody on the net. Currently we've got 15 degrees. Geez that's 3 straight days. That's 15 in the morning. And only going up to 19 that's a 58, 66 Fahrenheit cloudy and showers. Yeah same last couple of days too. We didn't get any rain yesterday though. Thank God. So I had my audition last night and they're going to have one more basis to come in next Wednesday. The name of the band is called Damsel. And the girl that contacted me, we were the ones that contacted but the other members of the band were guys. Older gentlemen like me too so there we go. And I did well on 4 of the 5 songs and the one song that I really enjoyed playing by myself was Heartbreaker by Pat Banatar. And I had my moments in it but when it came to the tougher parts that's when I froze. And that's one of my stories of me trying to play with bands. Especially if I'm auditioning for them. I get a little bit nervous about it. I would rather play stuff that I'm more comfortable with and have people joining me. And the guitarists. I'm not trying to follow them. We had the drummer, he came late. He worked until 8 o'clock. He didn't get in until 830ish. It was supposed to be 9 o'clock. Anyway, I'd like to know, here's a question for everybody. Why are there lawmakers or people of authority in the United States blaming us for the lack of tourism from Canadians because of the wildfire smoke that is going down from Manitoba, Saskatchewan right now? You cannot change wind directions, sirs. So, I mean why are they making a big fuss over this? Mr. Trump is the whole, well I'm sorry, he's the one imposing these tariffs and we're trying to make deals with him. But he's making deals with everybody else. I know it's all political but the point is you cannot expect wind directions to change whenever you want them to. So that's my answer and I hope you all agree with me. Stand by for a second. VA6GR is returning. I just want to tie this up and go back to Larry to see the list. KTHRER VA6GR is here. Bill here in Edmonton, Alberta. Yeah, they don't have a clue what they are going and doing anyway, Bill. Yeah, you got that right, Dick. Happy? Hey, back to you Larry. Kenny at V866. Okay, Bill. Yeah, I don't know. Well, some people want to do a little of everything that is impossible. So, yeah, I don't know. It's a mess. Let's put it that way. I better not get into that. Anyway, you take care, Bill, and we'll talk to you later. Thanks a lot for your check in this morning. Always good to hear from you. Okay, we got the kisser up next. Boy, oh boy. KI5 SSR. KTHRER. Go ahead, Jeanette. KI5 SSR. Jeanette here. Great find. That last station had me rolling in. And we certainly cannot change wind. I think we're all aware of that. I don't think that's some kind of hidden secret. And I just had a terrible storm come through here and had to spend $700 to clean up the mess. Because we lost several huge trees. So, I think we're all familiar with that. Not to mention all the groundings that we had in the Guadalupe here in Texas. I don't think that winds and stuff like that are any hidden thing. We didn't even see it coming here. And all my cameras sounded like a, sounded like a tornado. And it was what they think what they call straight line winds. So, a lot of people lost their trees, a lot of trees. But I have like 40 trees on my property. And the camera was on the tree that went down along with the light. So, it's quite entertaining to watch. Ha ha. Anyway, great to be on here. You have quite the list going on. I do want to tell people about the road chart, which is going to be on the right in Texas this evening at 830 Eastern. And then I have the half-hour tomorrow evening at 7 Eastern. And of course the new litter box launch on Saturday at 7 Eastern and the AOC on Sunday. 1-1-cats.org. Check it out. And great to see you running the net. Hope everybody has a great day. And watch the weather. Today we're going to be very, very hot. So, you always have to watch the weather. That's kind of the way it is. Terrified this is going back to you. Thank you. Okay, and that's, well, it sounds like you've got a bunch of trees there. Ha ha. Yeah, and you hate to lose any trees. That would help keep the air clean here. I know around here we've had hundreds and hundreds of trees have to be taken down over the last, I don't know how many years I've lived here. But so many of our trees were planted back when houses were built. And they're about the last, you know, end of their life and they're huge. My neighbor just had one he called about getting it taken down and sitting right beside my driveway. If it comes down it'll hit up many of my vehicles in his house. So, I think he said it was like $3,500. I said, oh my gosh, mine are bigger than his. So, I'd hate to see what mine would cost. But anyway, hope everything turns out for the best there for you. And we'll talk to you later. Okay, I've got Cliff up next, I think. M0HC, Cliff, go ahead. Well, good morning everybody. M0HC, we've got sunshine. Let's see, let's look and see how, if I can see the mountains pretty good. There's a little bit of smoke and stuff like that, not too bad. Gonna be close to 100 degrees today. One of my ex-pastors is in town. He wanted to have lunch and stuff, so it'll be kind of cool and stuff. Anyway, he just had a friend and everything else and stuff, so it was pretty good. Let's see, last night we had a pretty good jam. We just usually have good fun and stuff. Today we had four people. Friends of ours, we lost in a motorcycle accident up there in Sturgis just a day or so ago. And then my buddy Norris, forever and stuff, he went down with his Harley and he had some, he's gonna have to figure out his shoulder and a couple things and stuff like that. So it's been one of those things and then my, so, I mean it's not funny I guess, but anyway. So that's it, I'm just kind of waking up and doing my thing. So I appreciate you everybody and have a great day and enjoy your heat back tonight. You said you had a cleanup site about there, about your friends that are going, getting killed there or died or whatever in Sturgis, did it? It seemed like it always happens to the people that you've had a, you know, that motorcycle thing is dangerous, that's for sure. Whether it's you or whether it's somebody else that runs into you or whatever. I don't know, I always like to have one but I'll stay away from them. I think it's a little bit safer that way. But anyway, talk to you later, you have a great day and we'll go down here and pick up Pappy next. I'm gonna, for anybody that's just tuned in, this is the World Wide Friendship net for August 7th. And I'm Larry G-D-8 RER net control and if you want to check in, put your name on the list here in a little bit. So with that Pappy, you're up in 7 RHV, go ahead. Hi, no I'm not up yet but at least the voice is up. I just had to start to move here around the room and you know, getting things together, the brain functioning somewhat. You know, and I started to figure out where the adjustment is on my sundial. You know, I've been looking and I have never seen one so, I don't know, maybe I gotta move its position or something somewhere and get more sun on it. It doesn't seem to work like everybody else's. But anyway, you know how it is with sundials, they're weird. Other than that, I got the rent paid yesterday, nice long drive all the way to the left and the right back. So I guess I'm gonna have to figure out a Venmo thing or something to alleviate the fuel costs. Because that's not cheap going all the way up there and back. But anyway, gas is a lot cheaper at Costco, that's for sure, than it is down here. So, that's it. Go see my cardiologist tomorrow and make sure everything's closer and that everything's a-chicken so like it's supposed to. So, there you go. At that, I found the micro-band wipe so I don't need the spray so I'm purely gonna wipe that mic down and de-germ it. Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee408 There we go. Now, you're 99.9% germ free and no over-spray. How do you like that? It's 7 on HV. Back to that. Okay, Pimmy, what am I gonna do with that other 1%? That's probably the one I'm gonna get. No, I hope not, but anyway, that gas deal, I don't know how yours is out there, I'm sure it's probably about the same way, but ours goes up in town one day, it's one thing, and the next day you look at it, oh my gosh, it's been 50 cents higher than it was yesterday. What happened? I don't know, it's crazy. And they said, oh, Bank is supposed to put out more barrels, but they're gonna change the gas prices. This is crazy. So, I don't know. They got too good of control on that stuff to keep us broke all the time, I think. So, Pappy, you have a great day and we'll talk to you later. I got Bud up next, K5 EWH. Go ahead, Bud. What's going on in your world today? Good morning, everyone. This is Bud, K5 EWH in Gulf Canyon, Arizona. I ended up sleeping in this morning and didn't get into this net until, in fact, I heard Joe talking, looking for the net control. I really don't know what all happened, but anyway, I don't know if there's a question of the day, etc. Just had a very full day yesterday and no need to repeat any of that information. It's not interesting anyway, but a good day. And today I get my monthly car wash. Remember, I mentioned in the past, now that I have a mobility scooter with a lift on the rear of the vehicle, I cannot go through a car wash. So I have a company that will come over to the house here. I do this once a month because of money. And I get my monthly car wash here at home. You'll be arriving in about 20 or 25 minutes and spend about 12 hours doing the outside and the inside. It's just like going to a car wash except it's all done here at home. And the other difference is it's considerably more expensive because we only do it once a month. With that, I'm driving back to net control, wishing everybody a great day. It was good to hear Jeanette, K5 SSR, and what's going on in your area there in Grapevine. And looking forward to hearing all of my friends. Joyce and Joe, the lovebirds, and the other lovebirds, Rosie and Glenn, etc., etc. K5 EWH back to net control. Everybody have a great day today.
