  HERE IS MY CERTIFICATE THAT SHOWS THAT I AM QUALIFIED TO WORK ON RADIOS

BASIC SCIENTIFIC LAWS OF
RADIO REPAIR
IF ANYTHING CAN POSSIBLY GO WRONG---IT WILL.
WHEN THINGS ARE GOING WELL---SOMETHING WILL GO WRONG.
ANYTIME THINGS APPEAR TO BE GOING BETTER,
YOU HAVE OVERLOOKED SOMETHING.
IF ITJAMS---FORCE IT. IF IT BREAKS--IT NEEDED REPLACING ANYWAY.
THE PROBABILITY OF FAILURE IS DIRECTLY
PROPORTIONAL TO THE NUMBER OF THE PEOPLE
WATCHING YOU WORK.
EXPERIENCE IS DIRECTLY PROPORTIONAL TO THE
AOUNT OF EQUIPMENT RUINED.
IF A PART CANNOT POSSIBLY BE INSTALLED,
INCORRECTLY--- IT WILL.
THERE IS NO USE WORRYING, NOTHING IS GOING TO
TURNOUT ALLRIGHT ANYWAY.
ONCE A JOB IS FOULED UP---ANYTHING DONE TO
IMPROVE---IT ONLY MAKES IT WORSE.

THIS SITE WORKS BEST WHEN VIEWED WITH INTERNET EXPLORER

HERE IS A LITTLE POEM THAT WAS JUST RE-PRINTED IN A.R.C. SEPT. 2006. I JUST LOVE IT.
RADIO
A THING OF TUBES AND WIRES, AND LO
THE MIRACLE OF RADIO!
THE SIMPLE DIAL TURNING ROUND
SEARCHES THE ATMOSPHERE FOR SOUND
AND CAPTURES FROM THE SILENT AIR
SONG, MUSIC, ELOQUENCE, AND PRAYER.,
 
 

HOW STRANGE THIS MYSTERY OF THINGS
WHICH TO MANKIND SUCH PLEASURE BRINGS
AND DAY AND NIGHT WITH CHEER ILLUMES
THE DREARIEST AND LONELIEST ROOMS!
I NEVER TURN THE DIALS ROUND
BUT WHAT I FEEL A THRILL PROFOUND.
 
 
FED BY MAGIC MICROPHONES
THE AIR TAKES UP ITS FREIGHT OF TONES
AND CARRIES SAFELY EVERY WORD
TILL NATION-WIDE THE VOICE IS HEARD.
A SINGER IN NEW YORK APPEARS
AND DISTANT CALIFORNIA HEARS.
 
 
OH HAPPIER WORLD WHERE ALL MAY KNOW
THE MIRACLE OF RADIO!
THE MANSION AND THE COTTAGE PLACE
THESE THINGS OF TUBES AND WIRES NOW GRACE
AND RICH AND POOR ALIKE MAY SHARE
THE GOLDEN HARVEST OF THE AIR.
