Flick Lives -- More from a Great Web Site about "Jean Shepherd"


Jim Clavin has some really great stuff on his FlickLives website: 

Much of this stuff I had never seen.   Like the picture he has of young Shep in his shack.  I wonder how old he was in this picture.  He appears perturbed.  Perhaps his Heising Modulator was distorting?

Jim dug up all of Shep's licenses and got the names and callsigns of all the hams who were active from Shepherd's  hometown during the years Shep was living there.  I think I can recognized some of the names -- Shep talked about some of these guys when talking (on WOR) about ham radio.  Boles.  Stan.  Good times. 

The CQ Guest editorials and the various articles are a lot of fun.   Some things never seem to change. 

Thanks Jim! 

EXCELSIOR!
