Things I have learned in my pirate radio career.

Bears do indeed, sh!t in the woods. In large, pungent amounts. Detour around bears doing their business, if you can.

Remember, you can't outrun a bear or it's gases.

More tips in the upcoming weeks. I thank you.

Will there be a quiz on this? As a novice pirateer, I am all ears.

Well, there's one about putting your location in your sig tag on an open forum.

You dont have to outrun the bear ,you just have to outrun the person next to you.

Great stuff Pigmeat! It just goes to show that even a "studio pirate" has something to contribute to the hobby.

About that pic below your name, Al. Are you hinting that you're either D.B. Cooper or the Zodiac Killer? The police sketches of those two always looked alike to me. Given the Zodiac's penchant for cryptography.......

Choat, I was by myself and hoping the bear would go the other way. It did. My guess is it thought I smelled worse than it did?
