I think the person that you're shipping to will be quite pleased

Crap swap is in full swing! I'm packing my box right now! I think that if there's interest, we'll do Crap Swap Part II

Got my box-o-crap today, just packed up the one I'm sending off, and I'll send it off tomorrow. But I still got too much crap, so I'm up for a part II if there is one.

Tim!!!! Got the box today! Some great stuff, thanks for your generosity..
Included was a nice old Philco tube tester, a unique digital HV tester, some vhs tapes including a good copy of A&E's history of Television..

I'm ashamed to admit that I still haven't gotten my lazy ass to the P.O. . . . today's a week isn't it. But the recipient will be pleased with the goodies I've conjured up !!

You reminded me of both of the original gag, and of a Robot Chicken spoof of it.

The spoof went something like....It's random geography day kids! With two of them then saying they got a couple of countries, and Charlie Brown saying "I got Iraq".

I got a RatShak DX-400 AM/FM/SW portable & a little 2" Sony Watchman, that I need to run & get batteries for..VERY pleased ! I had a DX-390-Wonder where they came up w/THAT model # ?!?- that was a very good radio, albeit a tad flimsy-It was what re-kindled my interest in this stuff in 1990. This one looks to be a LOT more robust, & I KNOW I'll enjoy it. Thanks, Pat !

Hey Sandy- I could not find a ac power cord for the Rat Shack radio,I had used the power cord from my electric razor to power it up !
Hope you found the useless Sony Watchman packed in there too-
So yesterday,my boss brings in one of his kids broken Mac laptop for me to check out.Turns out to be a bad power supply,so I tell him I can scrounge up something.I get home that nite to find a box o crap on my porch,I rip it
open and whats inside? The very same P/S needed for my bosses laptop.What are the odds of that? Also included was a tube radio chassis, and a waffle iron that was probably built by Thomas Edison,not to mention some interesting assorted E-Scrap
