(Found this on the TN Section Manager's web page:)
July 8: Stolen ham rigs found (This might be of some help to TN hams as well!) A raid on a house in Marshall County in Alabama netted a bunch of stolen rigs. If you have been ripped off or know someone who has, contact the Marshall County Sheriff dept. 256-582-2034. Please sent this to hams that you know, even out of state. no telling where this stuff was stolen. Put on some of the nets also if you like.

Jeff's father sends along this eloquent prose. -

            Now here is a mad 
            old geezer.

            He is mad at an old hill billy
            that is to dumb to tell a Mule from a filly.

            Now you know that the revenuer came and closed his still.
            So now he raises marywanna over the hill.

            Now with all his loot
            he has already bought the cowboy boot.

            So now he has bought a bunch of hogs
            and about 40 Bear dogs.

            Now it is his fun
            to listen to his dogs run.

            Having gotten out of 3rd grade at 22
            he is just not smart enough to know what to do

            So when he wanted another joint town boy Sam
            traded him his papa’s 2mtr ham.

            Now that wilbur has got him a rig
            catman cannot wait to be mr big.

            Now when all their friends get one too
            They here that licensee is the thing to do.

            Here being Saturday they all head for the flea market stall
            Slick willie for $3 sells a licensees to them all.

            That is why they have these funny call  signs 
            Slick willy told them they used their old CB signs. 

            If you really want to find these boys out there 
            go to the woods and act like a bear.
