HFU sets new viewership records!
« on: December 31, 2011, 2156 UTC »
The award-winning site HF Underground recently set a new record for visits. It's rumored that this site even briefly surpassed the Drudge Report last month! Congratulations to Chris and all of the fine pirates and DXers who made this possible.

HFU remains the premier site for Pirate Radio on the net. There are no membership fees like some other sites, and we don't collect personal information to use against you. You don't need to undergo a grueling interrogation to join, and, best of all, HFU has maintained a record of availability unparalleled by any other website in the pirate radio universe!

As a bonus, the IRC channel #pirateradio on Starchat.net is host to many of the same people who have made HFU such an outstanding success. Come join us to log and discuss pirate broadcasts in realtime, with participants chiming in from all over the USA and the world. Timely discussions of important topics of the day, such as beer, Katy Perry's divorce, and the many contributions made by Belinda Carlisle to the musical arts, take place with bracing regularity. We welcome your participation, regardless of your past, sordid affiliations!

Your buddy,

Al

I was hot for Belinda Carlisle until Suzanne Hoffs and the Bangles had me walkin' like an Egyptian. BTW Suzanne STILL looks good.

Just a guess: Was it "Pirate Radio"? If so, I am SO proud.

Al,

You took the F U N out of PIRATE RADIO.

Wait. There was no F, U, or N in PIRATE RADIO.

That means you must have really added the FUN to PIRATE RADIO.

We now return you to your regularly scheduled static.
