So, no discussing the difference between sheep and goats.  No expressing 
opinions on brands of beer.  No talk about my old dog or his new 
grandchild.  No passing recipes for White Ladies.  No giving my name or 
asking for his.  No talk of other hobbies, of automobiles, of the 
weather.  Certainly no mention of station equipment, the state of my 
eyesight, or the colour of my shoes. In fact, no conversation 
whatsoever, especially me telling you that I don't really like sushi.  Just:

    November Four United Foxtrot Oscar
       Eight Papa Six Sierra Mike
          Golf Kilowatt Zero Three
             Five Nine
                Seven Three

I'm now totally motivated to go spend money to get QRV so that people I 
don't know (and will never come to know, since I can't actually talk to 
them) can get my grid-square.  I'm going to get right on that!  Because 
it's so important to me that a buncha perpetual strangers get my grid!

BTW, Is the Seven Three at the end OK?  Because I don't think it's 
actually required.  And just think how much time could be saved if we 
dispensed with all courtesies...
