[450] Southington Hamfest...

[n1ujs at toast.net]

I'm afraid I was misunderstood as well...

Oh, and for the record, it ("Sam's) never was about
the quality of the food....it IS about
tradition....and an atmosphere conducive to the 450
style of socializing......

Perhaps this was offensive to some? What a terrible 
shame!

The only mediocrity in this conversation is the
quality of that 
  put-down.

And maybe the food at Sam's.

 >Thanks to pop culture's idea of 
    a bad joke, manly
men are now portrayed as
boorish, brutish 
    Neanderthals wrapped in a
metrosexual exterior. You can
still spot the 
    occasional alpha male in your gym.
First, you must look past
the 
    hordes decked out in color-coordinated
"mandannas," who sport 
    tweezed
eyebrows and sip designer water while texting away on
their 
    smart phones as
they wait for a turn on the ab-isolation machine. 
    An
alpha will be
conquering the squat rack, manhandling the 
    free
weights and not resting long
enough between sets to talk, much 
    less text. (In
fact, he leaves his phone
in the locker room or at home 
    and communicates using
real communication, FM
simplex a SSB modes 
    using "real" antennae.) Truth be
told, alphas are made,
not born. They 
    attain their status through many hours
of hard training, long
QSO's as 
    well as eating the right foods. If you're
ready to unleash your
inner 
    beast, look no further than "The Alpha Male
Meal Plan" designed 
    to
optimize testosterone levels, maximize your
muscle-building 
    potential and
give you the edge you need to stay ahead of the 
    pack.

More on the "Alpha Male Meal Plan" in the 
    future.
