My son and I picked this pair of Belles up on the Craigslist last week and I thought I would share. He thinks he has an ear for good music.

Most often its the tape that's gotten muddy and not the player. Record to a good tape and then see what you've got.

Given those circumstances, what a job by the Captain. The man is a true hero, period. Did you catch the reunion they had? Boy, If he had turned for one of those airports and then it fell into the city........Looks he took the best course of action.

Wow, I hate to see the game decided on a bad pass interference call!

Seems to me the the guy has the system figured out. Retire at the end of season, wait until midway through training camp and join another team. Lets face it, his body probably felt sooooo much better when the regular season games. Maybe thats why he still has it at 40!

Thanks Artto, I did not know all that. On the store, I thought it was Woolworth's but maybe it was Sears? Anyway, I have a great deal to learn about audiophile quality turntables obviously. And I thought my old Akai DD fully auto was pretty good.[:$]

So its the Saints against the Vikes. Should be a good one. Brett looked really good against the Cowboys today.

"The unweighted rumble perforamance of virtually all direct drive decks (except the most expensive, largest, heaviest lathe-type systems) is inferior to even the average belt driven TT" Why does this matter when listening to a record? I guess I just remember as a kid the TT offerings at Woolworths with DD cost more $$$.

That guy is a piece of work. Al Davis should have kept him. They were like two peas in a pod. I can see why he would like USC though. They are historically the one really strong team in the PAC-10. He should have much more success there than at Tenn. banging heads with the SEC IMHO.

After one year at Tennessee Kiffin has had enough. Reports have him going to USC for that job. I'm kinda stunned really. I guess he bit off more than he could chew at Tenn.?

We import from China because they effectively fill our demand for cheapness. We, here in the US, have turned into a bunch of people running around selling insurance and services to each other.

You can't help but wonder if the Reggie Bush investigation has grown some teeth. Pete has had a great run at USC. I guess its over.

DD, Best I can tell, you sir are a gentleman and a scholar. Hope you had a great B'day and a have a happy new year to boot!

Ended up being a good game. It was really weird at times like when Bama went ultra conservative. I thought the Texas QB at times looked pretty darn good. I think Texas and Bama both will be in the mix next year. YEAH, NATIONAL CHAMPS!!! [<)][^][}]

Even as a Bama fan, I hate to see Colt get knocked out of the game. I want both teams with their best players in. Also Texas gave em one at the end of the half on that attempted shuffle pass. Who knows, maybe Colt back for the second half. I kinda doubt it though. A blowout no fun for anybody. Mark with almost 100 yrs in the first half.

Uh oh, Texas's backup QB hurt too? Mark Ingram getting it done with 47yrd and a TD in the first quarter. Right now it seems Bama is snacking on QBs.

Yeah, she did a great job on that! What? Colt McCoy already knocked out of the game with a shoulder injury?

Tonight is the night. Alabama vs Texas for all the marbles. Out in Pasadena its #1 against #2. Who ya got? I'm thinkin Bama all the way!

Whatever is in your fridge and still has some fizz to it. [6]

Based on her list I would suggest she is articulate and has some well thought out ideas about her future. The world is her oyster as they say and she will probably do fine.That said, when I was 18 I didn't know squat! I didn't move out and join the military until I was 23. Maybe she should hang around a little longer.

Matt, I think you are right to expect the best of people. Most people are good, honest, and dependable. I really believe that. Until I am proven wrong, I think others will do right by me. Most of the time I'm rewarded with just that. I refuse to loose faith in people. I hope you don't either. Best wishes for a great 2010.

I have a NAD amp in my collection of stuff. Sounds good to me. I would say listen for a while.

Tellus more about how you have it hooked up. Maybe something not connected right.

Florida coach Urban Meyer, who was admitted to a hospital because of chest pains following the Southeastern Conference championship game, is stepping down because of health concerns. "There was no heart damage," Meyer told the New York Times, referring to the night he was admitted to the hospital. "But I didn't want there to be a bad day where there were three kids sitting around wondering what to do next. It was the pattern of what I was doing and how I was doing it. It was self-destructive."

Hate to see this. Urban absolutely one of the very top coaches in the USA. Wonder whats up ?
