Title: FSO ?????
Post by ZAR on 08/03/12 at 20:12:35

Since I've been on this forum I've seen a few members' IDs with the letters FSO at the end. SO....what in the heck does that stand for?

Just curious!

Former Savage Owner.  

I'm one too, but don't bother to advertise it.  It doesn't matter much.

There's nothing disgraceful about not knowing an acronym and simply asking. Plus, you made it easy for others to search for, so they can act like they knew what FSO meant all along.  ;)

Yep Boule' I do know that. It just pains me cause the guys at the shop call me "professor" because I'm the one they come to for all the odd information and trivia!

Licensed to kill... :-/...


PSST!... my secret designation is,... F-S.O.B...

Yeah. ZAR's a CSO, but what does ZAR stand for, anyway?  Seems acronyptical.. :-/

I still can't get over you getting rid of your magazine bike... think I still have that issue somewhere.

Finding another one shouldn't be that tricky, see them all the time down here. In yards, on Craig's List, at the melt yard... whole lot of them pass through the recycle yards here. No resale value. And of course, once the scrappers have them you can't buy them.  Even if you offer twice the scrap value.

There was a running one for sale locally last week for $1000 USD or best offer. He took $250 USD. And was surprised to get that much for it. Can't hardly give them away down here, everyone wants a Harley, Honda or Yamaha.

ZAR,
I never took any interest in radio but maybe you have a QSL card from my father. He operated for over 50 years starting in the late 40's and built a lot of his gear. K5GBP and his handle was Charlie.

KG... as in KGB,..     ZAR,.. as in Czar...

Ahh!,... yes,.. it all makes sense now...  :-?...

Zar is clearly a Russian spy,.. trying to steal our Savage mods for some nefarious military plot...
I suspect he's secretly smuggling Raptor petcocks for the space program...
