Comments:  You all heard me whining on 3830 after the contest, so I'll save
you the burden of hearing it twice, but in a nutshell I went out with some
babes and got toasted Friday night instead of driving to AIH to set up for
the contest and it cost me.  Missed first 32 minutes of contest.  From 1832z
to 1932z I had 156 QSOs... all but 18 of them on 10 meters.  10 was totally
open to the east coast from Maine to South Carolina.  Also had a short
opening to Utah / Idaho around 2130z.  Last 10 meter QSO was at 2155z.

Favorite phonetics worked:  K 5 Forrest Gump (even sounded like him!)

Best DX:  ZB2BU  (also KI3V in Texas on 160 meters, couldn't get VZL's
attention)

Favorite name worked:  OJ  (AG6D and WA8ZDT)

Least favorite name worked:  WINGNUT (why??)

Most excitement during contest:  Piece of foil started a foam plate on fire
in microwave.  After blowing on it failed to put the ever growing flame out,
I dumped my Diet Pepsi on it.  That worked.  NOTE:  guest ops, ask the
station owner where he keeps his fire extinguisher BEFORE you actually need
one.  Fortunately, my chicken pattie escaped damage, so I got to eat after
all.
