  1. Our diocese had over 400 at Easter this year., babies to adults.
  2. I never had an amp to try a 45 so I'm no help there.
  3. The JJ2A3 is rated for a higher pate dissipation (40 watts). I never tried them in my 2A3 amps and they were only designed for the original voltage 2A3 tubes. I had some Sovtek, but really liked the EH2A3 gold grid 2A3s. Not too expensive and they sounded good. I powered my Heresy IIs and La Scalas with the EH and they were fine for me. YMMV. https://tubedepot.com/products/jj-2a3-40-watt-power-vacuum-tube https://tubedepot.com/products/electro-harmonix-2a3-eh-gold-power-vacuum-tube
  4. This is sort of a flash from the past. Seven Bridges Road done by Mother Earth w/Tracy Nelson
  5. @JohnJ glad u're getting back on track. @MicroMara while your body is feelin' better, enjoy life. Happy Easter everyone!
  6. Now we're getting the yello/green pollen, in spades. This first round was just the Bradford Pears... they are everywhere in Chattanooga. Now the green stuff.
  7. Anyone remember Paper Moon? This a quite humorous... prescient even.
  8. You still have the Apple product? You could install Linux on it. I'm not on a crusade. But there are versions foe most hardware out there (unless it's a pre Intel Mac) You can try it out by booting off a USB thumb drive, to get a feel for it.
  9. The poliomyelitis still exists in Pakistan and Afghanistan. I would hope it never shows up here again.
  10. NO to the first and YES to the second. My doc and my pharmacist both said I should get vaxed. I had almost everything before I was school age in 1955. My brother, three years older brought everything home from school. I think I got all the way to 8th grade or later before I was sick again.
  11. We are about 2/3 Linux and the rest windows 11 where I work. For us, the Linux was easier to install and deploy, mos updays can be done with no reboots. If you don't need perfect compatibility with MS Office, Libre Office is also free and works quite well (also a windows and Mac version available). If you don't specifically need a Windows app, Linux is pretty easy to setup. Twenty minutes and you are done. While there are ones that look like other OS's, ours look pretty similar to Win 7, so it's easy from the get go. Windows does have some advantages from a management point of view. MS is a huge supporter of the Linux community, and when Apple came up their OS after OS9, they used BSD Unix with their own widow manager. The physics teachers at the college I. Worked at didn't necessarily like Apple, but they loved being able to compile and run Unix app on their Macs. Crazy world. I have both a Windows and Linusystem at my job.
  12. Thanks, Dave. I'm doing fine, was just a little wobbly at work yesterday, but we kept busy cleaning our office most of the day. Decided to unload/toss any computer over five years old. That means we took drives and memory out of about 20+ computers and have them in a bin for an electronics recycler to pick up. That included about a half dozen 6 core cpu boxes.
  13. It has to be the JJ2A3, though.
  14. How much does that whole thing weigh? I know Carl built the F20, and this is larger, plus Rich had added trim to the cabinet.
  15. That woofer almost costs as much as you were asking. Super deal!
  16. You're killin' me, Rich. GLWS
  17. I would love to see pics when you are done... if you aren't comfortable posting them you can message me with the pix. How far are you from LR? I would make a trip to see them, but I'm at the other end of TN, next to Chattanooga.
  18. My wife warned me and suggested I get it another day, a Friday so I would have the weekend to get over it. The first one was easy. I've had five covid shots with no problem (other than the extra toe on each foot. 🤣 ).
  19. I see you snuck in a can of Guinness. I have some Extra Stout
  20. So, Tuesday evening the wife and I stopped by the pharmacy to pick up her prescriptions. The pharmacist asked if I was ready for my second shingles vaccine shot. Plus I asked about the new covid shot. He said I could have both at the same time. Kicked my butt! Only a little bit of a sore arm from the shingles shot, same as the first, but I stayed in bed and slept ALL day and all night. I still feel like I could sleep some more, but I'm back to work.
  21. I think the only part of "making fun" would be the price. They made different versions of the SK, and certain ones wee very close to Klipsch, and sounded very good. The new lower price on the listing might sell. Considering what Khorns are selling for, they could be a good deal. IIRC, @DizRotus had four that he hauled around for dances.
  22. I wondered when that was going to happen. I wish them well!
