LOL! I did spot a little stainless trash can poking out from a box

What got me was unless there was something really valuable buried in those boxes what was paid for the space itself, at least 1g a year, could've bought the probable contents new many times over. The manager said it'd been rented for quite a few years.

A strange happening - I'm on my own till Sunday. My better half went with daughter to Colonial Williamsburg for turkey day. First time I've been alone at home for quite a few years.

So I'm going to change the distributor on the S-10 for starters. I might surprise her with changes to the stereo, I have to think about it. I'm sure she'd LOVE that

Go to a modern, easy to use receiver, if you don't already have one:

Sacrilege!!

It does look really nice though.

I need to use equipment that breaks down monthly, apparently.

The nice symmetrical arrangement of 100 little buttons, all alike, with subdued-contrast labels, DOES look nice, doesn't it?

So my point may not be well taken. The Mrs. might like it a lot.

I thought so but didn't know for sure!

She sees this crap and the real killer - teenie speakers - 'why can't we have a stereo like that?' all sweetness and light lol.

Picked up a Stanley eggbeater hand drill yesterday, an old one. What a quality feel. Like this:



It's the original cordless drill lol.
