There's some really nice ones on there I may send a wish list to the guys. I'll lose about 6 weeks of gift making in total so as soon as I'm free it's sleep pants some with matching tops. A bag is on my wish list as soon as I'm caught up
Bought my stereo when I was overseas (SEA)and had it shipped home, the brand was Teac, think they are still in business. can't remember the brand of speakers, big sat on the floor, they could put out the sound. IRON BUTTERFLY IN-A -GADDA- DA-VIDA~IN probably why I have hearing lose now HA HA -- I look every now and then on eBay and can find someone selling the same one I had but without my tapes --no point. Don't know if the 8 track works had it in my 56 Chevy back in high school. Saved the 8 track wish I saved and still had the 56Ouch...! Sorry about that loss.
I payed $1K for the better stereo right after I graduated HS and the firm I first worked for nights during HS hired me full time the summer of ‘80.
Turntable, receiver, double cassette deck, all Hitachi. The only thing I varied on were the speakers. The Hitachi speakers just weren’t doin’ it for me. After listening to several options, I was finally blown away by speakers from a company called Accord out of Boston, MA. They were BADA$$...!!!!!!!!!!!
People commented on the sound quality all the time...!!!!!
Haven’t done an extensive search, but, so far, a coupla’ short searches have rendered no trace of that company, whatsoever.
Maybe, someday, I’ll see about gettin’ my whole system back in workin’ condition...!!!
I think all of us bought our stereo equipment while we were in Asia. Much cheaper but good quality. I bought all separate components all different brands. Amplifier, Turn table, cassette player, speakers and my world famous multitasker car 8 track/cassette player. I have to confess I don't remember a single brand name. Most lasted for many years. The first to malfunction was the car tape player. It had a very complex internal mechanical system that enabled it to play both 8 track and cassette by a system that used the same entry point for either. The cassette mechanism would, by automatic levers lift the cassette works out of the way when an 8 track was inserted. The weird thing was it wasn't that part that broke down it was the electronics that stopped working, in stages, over a brief period of time.
Elvis has left the building?!?!I miss their full menu from "normal" times...no more Elvis Memorial Combo, no more Stacked Chicken Enchiladas, etc.,...!!!!!

That was the perfect lunch for two. And I miss the jalapeño ranch with those fresh chips. I might need to look for a copycat recipe for that.
Pardon my selfish whine for a second..
Milk Cards are something I love.
Fridays are my favorite day of the school week, because it’s Hot Lunch Day, the one day I don’t have to pack lunch. I prepay for every Friday of the year.
Neither one is happening in 2020.
This is my only whine, I have to remind myself of what I say to T when he expresses regrets at any change in sports, recreation, or school plans-
“I understand. However, would you rather do it with these modifications, or would you rather still be at home?”
My answer is the same as his - “Oh, this way!”
Have a fun day!!!!
Had a beeper, but used a cell phone to call people back.I never had to do that...I do remember Dad doing that in WDW, though.
Good luck to her! Good luck to you and your wife as well. My daughter starts college on Monday. Pretty much most of her classes are online. So in a way she will still be “homeschooled”.
A lot of mask wearing here...but a least my daughter can live and learn on campus. Thank you for your well wishes!☺Good luck to her! Good luck to you and your wife as well. My daughter starts college on Monday. Pretty much most of her classes are online. So in a way she will still be “homeschooled”.
I think I might have my dads 45 of that song in the basement.
Hope the move-in goes smoothly! This is something you will remember all your life-moving a child into a college dorm!
Thank you. My mid size hatch back....my Mazda CX-5 was filled to the ceiling and up against all windows. As I drove here yesterday my rearview mirror was therefore useless. It was as if I was driving a U Haul Rental truck.Hope the move-in goes smoothly! This is something you will remember all your life-moving a child into a college dorm!
Start with that. Then let us know.
