Painted 4 362 speakers and hung the 2 side surrounds, the other 2 will be rears on some kind of stands, there about 70 pounds I think. It took 3 of us to get them up on the brackets which had 4 3” lag bolts and 2 200# drywall anchors in each bracket.

 

 

The grills were painted white also but they didn’t really show up in the pic.

Getting back to the critter topic I need your help writing a song for my house share partner who is terrified of roaches.  I've got to run out to a dentist appointment but hoping you can come up with a few lines by the time I get back.  Royalties will be shared.

 

I would like to base it on Hall & Oates "Maneater".  I'll start........

 

They only come out at night

Bugs that love to bite.......

We've seen them before

crossing the floor

the lean and hungry type.....

It doesn't matter

yell at them if you like

you're not going to break their heart.......

Watch out now he'll eat you up

he's a maneater......

Now if I was you

tell you what I'd do

I'd turn on the lights

keeping track of their flight

and carry one big big shoe.........

Smash em and bash em

do what you will

but you're never going to win the fight.

Look out girls he'll chew you up

He's a maneater.

Eating crumbs off of the floor.....................................

Show her the animated movie "Twilight of the Cockroach."  It is a cult classic and the part where they enjoy wallowing in her panties will warm her heart.

 

=== “wallowing in panties” is always heartwarming - 💓

It was 92 in here when the new ac system got cranked up for the first time. After five or so he measured at the return in the hall 90 degrees, at a vent on the floor in the den.... 54!! Man that felt c-c-cold the metal vent was colder! Amazing what you can get on a promissory note. Glad that we could too! Thunderstorm tonight did nothing for interior humidity it's under 50% without using the dehumidifier!

Okay.....time to come clean.  How many of you sang these words to the tune Man Eater?  Get stuck in your head?

I have enough "hooks" rattling around in my head. Please to not introduce/instigated more... please?!

 

 I see we have French's mustard ice cream now. ... and along comes OscarMeyer with hot dog ice cream.  Would make a reasonable ice cream sandwich. 86 the ice cream...

not coffee, cables, cocktails or cannabis... though, I think the later may have a part in the idea of hot dog and mustard ice cream....
