Hello,

I be Willoughby Wainwright, call me Will. I was Baptized on that 'Day of Infamy' you've no doubt heard about. My other claim to fame I've been in Iceland and Tahiti in the same week.

I live inconspicuously in Ouray Co. nestled in the San Juan Mountains avoiding taxes as much as possible. You'll probably find us hanging out at the unpretentious Silver Eagle Saloon.

About “NervyHitch”,  later replaced by “WeirdPlants”,  was the radio call sign of the Headquarters Company to which I was attached back in the day. The radio I used was the AN/GRC-9 aka 'Angry Nine'. Our coumpany patch was that of the ,"Dickey-Bird".

My intention here, for the most part, is to post rarefied articles of interest on the subjects indicated on the home page. Nothing more. Oh, we have a couple of reoccurring writers who are personal friends. Lastly we have no advertising, pop up or otherwise, so we are not a favorite in a Google search unless searched by our name. Our only social media is on X.

The stuff of this page consists of passport stamps of memorable or noteworthy memory to me. At the bottom are some of the gadgets I used to play with as a kid. I'd hook them up and make all sorts of devices from radios and transmitters to geiger counters and later bugging devices.
