Title: Beauty and Brains
Post by: VC on February 27, 2014, 08:27:08 PM
What's the connection? If you don't know about it - prepare to be blown away. If you do know about it, please spill the beans here without using google.

Try not to cheat - To thine own self be true...................

And if you don't know the connection - stop drooling over her. She died in 2000 at the age of 85. Watta woman!

I think she beats the entire lot of 'RC Girls' from inception to date single handedly.

Iyer Sahab, while I definitely anticipated your focussed attention  ;) on this thread, I didn't expect the 'Huh?'  ???  from you........................

Rohit 256 - Google FHSS and see what you come up with. Yashodhan has already given you a clue.

I came to know of her when I first started gaining knowledge of RC and came to know about FHSS it ,wasn't entirely her discovery. Also the reason why people started researching spectrum hopping and encryption. :)

But she is a great person :bow:

You guys must be older than my dad.
Maybe you don't need any more heady haircuts as not having any is a sign of victorious maturity.
I know all these references having heard of them since childhood.
Even know who the original Tarzan was.
But what's the use? Still don't know the answer.
As Lance told me the other day, maybe my ego is writing cheques my body can't cash.
Perhaps i need to exercise the option of growing up...

Iyer Sir, Johnny Weissmuller, Buster Crabbe and Herman Brix have had no part to play in nurturing our hobby. Thus, their pictures are not up on the forum. :giggle:

@ Iyer Sir,

Johnny Weissmuller, Buster Crabbe and Herman Brix have played no constructive role in nurturing our hobby. Thus, their pictures are not up on the forum.

@VC Sir,
Angrez chale gaye, kuchch aulaad chod gaye.
Thought up a new one just now:
Oscar Wilde, caught at Customs with a new gold Parker was asked if he had anything to declare.
Ans: Nothing except my pun!
Title: Re: Beauty and Brains
Post by: VC on February 28, 2014, 11:40:35 PM
I thought Wilde was asked to sign a document at the Customs office and he searched frantically within his coat and exasperated, "I'm sorry but I don't know where my pen is." That's another story. Rai Sahib knows the rest.............you can ask him.

@VC Sir,
@Sanjayrai55 Sir,
That was when he was searching for his pen to declare his genius.
I made this one up for when the pen was found.
Caught with his pen down.
Deserved to be penned.

Iyyer sir , Vc sir,
Something i scratch  my head to get, what you gentlemens are talking about. many times it goes over my head, then also i tried to read,as much as i can. I think to reach that level of knowledge and communications skills, ill still have to get lot of age.

still remember the words by  Sundram sir " Be aware of older generation, they have not got the knowledge buy googling''.  :salute:

Swapnil, Swapnil, Swapnil - *****  ??? It is just a part of your body and nothing to be ashamed of. An integral part, though. Why are you being so defensive and camouflaging it with stars. Be proud of that part, keep it erect and take good care of that part now so that it gives you no trouble in your old age. Now say it and say it loud:

GROW A SPINE!!!

Well your 'Spine' dig reminds me of a two liner, goes like this.

'When I was young, all my bones were soft and supple except one

Now I am old, all my bones are Hard & Creaky, Except one'


Are we talking about Spine here

I guess we are :giggle:

It was only a few minutes back that Gusty had said (in Jallandhar thread):
"It's not the size that matters, it's what you do with it"
