Comments:

I found an excellent way to raise my blood pressure and frustration.  Start with
the worst call sign on the planet, couple that with less than stellar
conditions, then make the brilliant decision to go Low Power.  There you have a
recipe for high blood pressure and frustration.  Don't know how many times I
gave my call 10-15 times to one station.  And then, some, still didn't get it. 
But, with a low power signal and "shoddy" band conditions, one can't
blame the receiving station too much.  This became a part time effort after I
realized I wasn't really enjoying myself.  Basically took both Friday and
Saturday evenings off to purse other activities.  I hope I look back at this
soapbox next year and either learn from my mistakes, or skip the contest. 
Thanks for everyone who dug me out.  73.
