[Boomer]

When I was headed back home today, I called Mr. Boomer and said, "Throw a couple Warsteiner in the freezer, darlin'. I'm on my way."

Then, having lost all inhibition, I decided to put my picture on here. (Only one of the beers was mine. I'm a cheap date.)

Now, I will try to answer the questions you have asked re. the picture.

Muncle,
Actually it is an original "Hidden Persuaders." I am trying to learn how to put subliminal messages into my posts. And "Atlas Shrugged" is around here somewhere. (I think we are speaking Boomerese, now.)

V '07,
Yes, I sure am sitting on the exercise ball. It is blocked by the golf bag.

And to answer you and Sid about the "Antenna Book" --

You see, Mr. Boomer has his hobbies. Right now he is working on a ham license. But we will not, I repeat not, be putting up antennas, not here, not there, not anywhere -- not anywhere that anybody can see anyway.

So the "Antenna Book" belongs with "The Naked Pilot." I keep trying to interest Mr. Boomer in less expensive hobbies, like perhaps carving polar bears out of soap.
