Wasn't there an altercation a few years back with a couple of the euro pirates fighting over a frequency?

Wow. That's intense. Interesting bit of history.

During the height of the 70's CB boom, two guys met at a strip mall to shoot it out in the parking lot. Of course, the cops and everyone who had heard their escalating feud over the the preceding weeks were there for the big event. I think they both got six months in the local lock-up?

I think of them every time I see "Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back".

Piigles, has a certain lagomorph ever showed up at your door to discuss certain forum posts?

Not any particular ones. There's one in Virginia who has threatened to over the years, but he still hasn't turned up. I guess  Al, Chris and that John Poet fella are ahead of me on his enemies list? Plus, he's been dying of various terminal diseases over the years. I think it's Ebola this year?

There's a midget in Missouri that get's riled up at my posts from time to time, but if you looked like him, you'd be mad, too.
