Everybody turned out downtown, lots of grilled hotdogs, brats and sauerkraut. I drive through Waterloo, Wisconsin all the time. That place is the best. Why did you ever leave? Oh... NM. 5 Quote
Tarheel Posted January 4, 2022 Author Posted January 4, 2022 Hey Duke....miss your old avatar. Recall we both had the same Quicksilver Audio Full Function preamp. Recently sold mine as it was getting long in the tooth (1987). Quote
grasshopper Posted January 4, 2022 Posted January 4, 2022 "Normality" returns to this house. Wife is back to work.... for the moment anyway Spent the day, yesterday, doing laundry. A week of bad weather... Today, I went up on the roof and plunged the chimney. SIL's BF dropped us enough wood to last a few days... That was very nice. While wife was on vacation....She cleaned the house. Picked up her paper and school stuff. I do the general cleaning, but I leave those piles alone - figuring she knows what's in them.... After she got done tidying things... she couldn't find anything. Had to fight to keep her from treating the leftover rib roast like any chunk of meat. She made a batch of chili before I could stop her. All I could say was "WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!?" Then I went and had a laugh/cry I'm about to declare it cocktail time. Boy got me another bottle of Woodford Reserve. 2 1 Quote

Tarheel Posted January 4, 2022 Author Posted January 4, 2022 Woodford Reserve and Elijah Craig small batch are priced about the same here. Finishing up a bottle of the EC just now to celebrate a new speaker purchase. 3 2 Quote
grasshopper Posted January 5, 2022 Posted January 5, 2022 If/when I get to Tucson... I am needing a "new" amp/receiver for the doghouse I figure on going to the repair shop and see what they might have. They advertise having vintage stuff. Hopefully that doesn't translate into too many $ signs. 3 Quote

Dave1291 Posted January 5, 2022 Posted January 5, 2022 I dunno about that one. Could be though. The last pair he bought didn't have a cabinet. Maybe he found the rest of them somewhere. He's sneaky like that. 1 2 Quote

RRR Posted January 5, 2022 Posted January 5, 2022 Nice weather for class A today, Spotify on random. Lucky one too, a roofing and construction place actually called me back. Let's hope they don't drive by and make a quick exit. 7 Quote
