Title: You can't make this up.....
Post by: KD6VXI on December 09, 2017, 12:31:04 PM
This, just came across my Facebook feed.

Pretty funny picture, especially after you see what Mom is pointing at.

A photo of TimTron, 'WA1HLR.

Guy who posted this is a hotshot truck driver up and down the east coast.

I'm going to pm this to Tim as well.

Just TOO funny, even the CB radio truck drivers love them some' Tron!

An instant classic. Tnx Shane!
And yep that's the Tron alright, and what's the badge say that Tim is wearing? From a fester?

Not sure it is a badge.

I think he's wearing a murse (Man Purse) or other bag, and that his shirt has a peace sign or other insignia.

Maybe Tron himself can chime in and say?

This cartoon is nothing new, though the particular photo of Timmy has been changed.  It's been around for years, and Tim in on the joke.

Yea, GFH posted a bunch of these here years ago. Funny stuff.  ;D

Good to see that they are still floating around.

Not as spectacular as those but I was once politely told "You can't use AM here. It's not the AM part of the band." by a slopbucket that came down 15KC and switched his 100W rig to its AM mode, ill-adjusted, to dispense that friendly wisdom.
