it's the circle of being cool ... you started it @MyOwn I just followed your lead. Peace.

I think they are incredibly cool; but @oldtimerhas been very good to me during hot sauce season, so I'd like to repay the kindness and allow him to have them. But a great big thank you @MyOwnfor thinking of me. those are super cool.

Currently, halfway done with a book called "Heaven" by Randy Alcorn. Next up is "The Consequences of Ideas" by R. C. Sproul

If I'm going to play some Glen Miller tunes in three minutes ... is this is the right thread to post it in?

since you cats are generally all hopped up on coffee, hopefully your brains are working better than mine. When I hover over my avatar, a box opens and it shows Post, Reputation, and Badges. What they heck are badges? Not that I want one; but I don't have any. And it says I have to get so many points before I'm at the next level (Currently level 8/9), I wasn't aware that we were earning points ... does points in this regard mean posts?

That's why I always start my posts with "I don't mean for this to be political ..." I think it best to let people know right from the beginning. For those of you that don't get sarcasm ... this is it. But now I'm curious as to what was posted ... that curiosity will wane soon enough ... oh wait, what's that shiny thing over there?

Someone sent me this: How Social Media Works Me: I prefer mangoes to oranges. Random Person: So basically, what you're saying is you hate oranges? You also failed to mention pineapples, bananas, and grapefruits. Educate yourself. I'm literally shaking."

at the airport ... and hungry. actually, that reminds me of a funny story ... it may or not be true that I once was flying back to Los Angeles from Minnesota and I went to the wrong airport. I got to the airport and stood in line for the airline that I was flying. The nice lady at the counter said, "how are you getting to Minneapolis?" I said, "I'm going to Los Angeles." She said "you have a ticket to Los Angeles on a flight leaving Minneapolis/St. Paul ... you are in Duluth." Okay, now I see my problem ... "let's start over. I am right here and want to go to Los Angeles. Can you help me?"

This was originally written by someone about Facebook; but I see many similarities to the Klipsch forum. Q: How many people does it take to change a lightbulb on Facebook? 1 to change the light bulb and to post that the light bulb has been changed. 14 to share similar experiences of changing light bulbs and how the light bulb could have been changed differently. 7 to caution about the dangers of changing light bulbs. 17 purists who use candles and are offended by light bulb discussions. 6 to argue over whether it’s ‘lightbulb’ or ‘light bulb’. Another 6 to condemn those 6 as stupid. 22 to tell THOSE 6 to stop being jackasses. 2 industry professionals to inform the group that the proper term is ‘lamp’. 15 know-it-alls who claim they were in the industry, and that ‘light bulb’ is perfectly correct. 249 to post meme’s and gif’s. 19 to post that this page is not about light bulbs and to please take this discussion to a light bulb page. 11 to defend the posting to this page saying that we all use light bulbs and therefore the posts are relevant here. 16 to post ‘Following’. 36 to debate which method of changing light bulbs is superior, where to buy the best light bulbs, what brand of light bulbs work best for this technique and what brands are faulty. 7 to ask if the brands of light bulbs used are worth the money. 19 to tell them that if they like the light bulbs, buy them. 5 People to post pics of their own light bulbs. 15 People to post “I can’t see S$%^!” and use their own light bulbs. 7 to post URLs where one can see examples of different light bulbs. 4 to post that the URLs were posted incorrectly and then post the corrected URLs. 13 to comment “Me too”. 5 to post to the page that they will no longer post or are leaving because they cannot handle the $!%cking light bulb controversy. 6 to report the post or PM an admin because someone said “f÷×$” 22 to ask if there is a flounce in progress. 349 to post flounce memes. 4 to say “Didn’t we go through this already a short time ago?”. 13 to say “Do a search on light bulbs before posting questions about light bulbs”. 1 to bring politics into the discussion by adding that (insert politician of choice) isn’t the brightest bulb. 4 more to get into personal attacks over their political views. 5 admins to ban the light bulb posters who took it all too seriously. 1 late arrival to comment on the original post 6 months later and start it all over again.

John ... I just opened two boxes of clothes that I had stored and I'm pulling out all kinds of cool shirts that I forgot that I had ... it's like Christmas in August. Tomorrow, I'll open up the last of the sealed boxes to see what cool stuff is inside of it. In the previous box, I found a Venice Beach Choppers t-shirt, a Fender t-shirt, a gray wool trench coat and a full length leather trench coat. Being a single man, I don't pay attention to the rules of fashion, moisturizers, or laundry so I wanted to freshen up these items so I put them in the washer. That leather trench coat came out weighing a ton! I practically had to get a spotter to help me lift it out of the washing machine. Then I was confused at the full length gray coat because I thought it was hanging on the chair, so I checked and I have a waist length pea coat on the chair ... this one goes all the way to the ankle. They are very warm though. Not as warm as my Chinese army Yak jacket -- that thing goes below the knee and weights 10 pounds; but I've been walking in the snow and 19 degrees outside -- walked for over an hour and didn't get the slightest bit cold.

land of surgically enhanced women. speaking of ... why do women get work done on their faces? has their even been a face lift that turned out well? I get the boob jobs and liposuction; but stay away from the face and PLEASE stop this puffy lip fad -- it's hideous. (before @DizRotus reads this, I am not getting these procedures, I meant I understand). sorry for the rant ... you can return to your regularly scheduled program.

particularly like the roy Orbison one. Bruce Springsteen was clearly from a relative that was mad at you. ha ha. happy Father's Day.

upper riot, three dots -- click that to edit.

and I thought you loved us. teasing us with those food photos and now ... nothing. hope you're back to work soon. my not working was voluntary so easier to handle.

two duplicates posts in one day. step away from the keyboard man, this thing may blow!

I do admit that when I see couples arguing nowadays, I am thankful that I'm not married. But, then I lose out on all the positives of being in a relationship too.

I guess since I'm the only submission, I win. My music preference beats everybody. haha. So, what's my prize ... please not a bottle of vegamite ... tried that stuff once and it did not go down easily. My friend from Essendon loves the stuff. Puts it on his toast.

well, I guess we're out of the hard quarantine; but since I quit working, all I have is time. Not as much money as I keep buying stuff. Just ordered a new 12 string guitar.

I just bought the guitar Dave. I wish they'd stop making guitars ... this is getting to be an expensive habit. But, even when I'm not playing one, they sure look good hanging on the wall. Still not at my cousin's friends level ... he has a Fender Telecaster on loan to the Rock Hall of Fame. I think listening to hymns would be nice ... peaceful, encouraging music to calm your nerves. I love Rock and Roll; but there are times when it just isn't important. Glad you made it through and hope you're feeling great very soon. Peace my friend.

EVERY website I go to loads up in lightning fashion, except one ... the Klipsch forum. just now, It took about four minutes to load. I don't get it. I've interrupted the loading and selected other websites and they load up instantly. what is it with this forum or is my ISP (Xfinity cable) not an audiophile? T 346 Mbps, I'd think that I wouldn't have to wait so long for the forum to respond. Oh yeah, it also happens when I'm already on the forum and selecting a new thread to view. Frustrating.

as you know, I'm a single man ... so after a few adult beverages, I'm about to buy another guitar. I said "Honey, do you mind if I buy another guitar?" I didn't hear her say no. Truth be told, I'd rather have a wife and be buying her stuff; but so life goes.

too late ... you already said it and you are right.

inherited it from me.

after you drink the bourbon, the bottle doubles as a bong.

@CECAA850 By the way, I'm texting with my eldest daughter and she tells me that she likes the Clyde Mays. My response is "how do you know Carl?"
