    wait ... what!  Are you saying that fortune cookies are a lie?

    That would be terrible! Fortune cookies are the only compliments I get anymore.

  2. I stream a lot when I'm not spinning, but it's from my Macbook pro to Denon via Airplay. Almost all files have been converted (if not DL'd) in lossless format. I have some redundacies from my vinyl because I like to hit it and let it play for hours sometimes. Usually if I don't have time to sit and listen. I do not see anyone else here talking about using Airplay. I am astounded how good it sounds on my system. If you already have days worth of files on your pc, this is an option. I have delved into a little Quobuz. They had a short time free DL of some music that sounds fantastic.

  3. Fantastic thunderstorms west of the Cascades today in Or and Wa states. We don't get many big boomers. One almost knocked a RS-7 off my wall. Steady, early morning rain has turned to showers before it (supposedly) ramps up again. Almost 20 degrees colder than the last 2 days.

    I can almost smell those ribs from right here, just the right amount of crunchy on them. Gotta have the crunchy on those and the barbequed chicken also!

     

    Bug cake is an outstanding job done by an obviously twisted individual. It's realistic and gross to be on a counter!

    Those people on "Naked and Afraid" would love a grub like that.

    Wishbone Ash was in Seattle the last 2 years at the Triple Door. The original two guitar hack attack. Still great. I listen to their live album often.

    Finished watching the Discovery Channel program from this book. Endlessly fascinating and very well done production. I am now reading "Don't know Much About The Civil War". I found out there's a lot I don't know about the Civil War.

    Story reminds me when I first drove a rental that had that lane departure/assist system. i had no idea what it was.

    For those that don't know what it is, if the car senses that you are drifting out of you lane, it will jar the steering wheel to get you back in lane.

    I thought the car was possessed 

    I had my '97 truck in the shop overnight for some repairs about 2 years ago. I was given a loaner. Talk about an ol' boomer. It was already nightime and I had NO idea how to turn the lights on... so I could see how the rest of the car worked. Let alone start the dang thing and drive home! It literally took about 5-6 minutes to push the right buttons. Of coursed I was too embarrased to ask for help.

  8. These people mostly farm email addresses and phone numbers. Someone posted the new ALK La Scalas (or were they KH's?) here a few months ago at less than $1000.00.

    I replied to what I thought he was doing, as these were brand new models that will (most likely) never sell for that amount.... ever.  I accused him of farming phone numbers. The post was deleted that day.

    Edit: I remember now they were La Scala AL5.

    One day I would like to be there to see one shot off, must be pretty amazing to see live.

    That had been a 'bucket list' thing for me. To see and hear and feel the shuttle take off. Sadly I missed them.

    So, i guess i was making VLOGS decades before You Tube came around. 

    An early adopter. Imagine if you thought how to, somehow, make money off it! You could afford my new speakers.

    I remember one day in SoCal when it was 59 degrees. I remember it because I was wearing my North Face down backpacking jacket! Wimpy below 60 degrees. That day a friend of a friend was visiting from Northern Cal (Blue Lake) and had shorts and a t shirt. Of course he gave me hell. You get acclimated and that's that.
