One point for everyone you talk to who's enjoying oatmeal while talking
Double points if that oatmeal contains maple syrup

One point if your contact whistles "Glory Hymn of the Republic"
Subtract one point if your contact is a Black Robed Gangster or has a radio made by the Military Mafia

10 bonus points for every half-alive DX-100 or S-20R you work
100 bonus points if you can get someone to write an angry letter to the FCC

John:  How about bonus points for anyone who speed dials Riley to complain about wide signals, or Canadian hams using phone in the US CW portion of 80 meters? 
Extra points for catching him while he's sitting down to Thanksgiving dinner?
