I went the year before last. Loved it, but at 52 I was probably the youngest (and thinnest) guy there. If you're in the swap meet and see something you like, buy it as it will be gone later.
Please QSL to MaplRadio@gmail.com

Next weeks contest: guess how many Volkswagons can fit in Joy Behars mouth. I pick five.

A ham with a parrot on his shoulder walk into a bar.

Barkeeper asks “where did you get that?”

“Dayton” says the parrot.
