Smoking and Tobacco

Actually, when it looked like he was going to get re-elected I decided to spend my money while I still had it and took the plunge into Gryphon Audio and TechDAS Turntables. So he was directly responsible for starting me down the path resulting in my current audio system. Thanks ahole!

I know how that feels. Though I didn’t spend as MUCH dough. . . proportionately I imperiled my future for some sonic solace.

I quit smoking 15 years ago as it was obvious that it was going to kill me sooner than later.

Yes my stress level and spending level went up together at the same time but stereo stuff was healthier than restarting that habit. Addiction is a curse.

Does anyone wonder how 2000 or more of the cult followers are going to or already in jail but the leader continues to stand on his soap box and proclaim innocence?

But then again every convicted criminal claims innocence all the way to the joint.

Sold my cabin a few years ago. Thinking that finding a piece of property up north and focusing on building something might help me navigate the rest of this year. :face_with_spiral_eyes:

Same. But I have a much more immersive Audio Reality than I did then.

speaking of
immersive Audio Reality

I saw U2 at The Sphere on Sunday. During “Even Better Than The Real Thing” the stage looked like it was moving upward while everything on the screen was moving downward. Some people near me got dizzy and had to sit down, then they made sure they looked again, as it was so cooool.

No worries Us of not having enough paper money. One of our horse ranch borders works here in Bureau of Engraving & Printing. He said in his 45 years there he saw more money printed last three years than the previous 20.

Yes. Somehow our economic strategy ignores the immutable fact that increasing the money supply without increasing productivity equals inflation.

With all the EFT it’s just preparation for a run on banks so that extra paper ready is the economic strategy unfortunately.

Heading up north this weeknd to look at a piece of property. I think it’s time.

Listening to music this eve, and went into discogs and hit the “random” button to find something in my library to play. Probably been 40 years since I heard this. No cigar, but it’s smokin.
