On the last shopping day before Christmas, I was in a Best Buy recycling CAP laptops,
and one of my Secret Santa gifts was a hand mic for my HT. Yeah, I'm in CAP.

Here's wishing all you mugs a warm holiday, or just a quiet Tuesday, depending on your predilection.

Merry Christmas, grumpy old guy (from another grumpy old guy) and thanks for all that you give.

Not a single thing I got this year was CAP related (or even "dual use") so far.

Merry Christmas. And don't underestimate the power of CAP to take ordinary gifts and repurpose them for the "greater good"; especially dual use!

As it should be. Life does exist outside of CAP.

The United Federation of Planets blanket my wife got me is definitely going with me to the next CTEP.

Told my wife and 5 grown kids, no gifts,  to just put a couple bucks in an envelope for me to pay for my Commercial check ride I hope to take in a couple months. Between all of them I have enough.  Yes, its dual use. :)
