  1. Pete if I die after my second shot, I told my wife to contact you and send you one of my Fenders. That way every time you play it you will be reminded of Trump !! And me of course !!!
  2. Thats what I am hearing. Second shot is the one that gets people. My second is next month. I did feel a little puny the next day, but nothing major.
  3. Our county is still giving shots to 60+. Im a couple years younger. But a client told me to call our local Krogers. They have people in the 60+ schedule shots and then for some reason those people cancel. So they offer those to anyone on a first come first serve basis (call after 5pm). I called Friday after 5 and they had plenty. So my daughter and I got them. But if your interested, and have a local Krogers, then keep that in mind and call after 5pm. Never called CVS, they may do the same.
  4. Is it tight !! Or sloppy as hell ?
  5. Received my first Moderna Covid shot. Nothing out of the ordinary as far as reaction. Sore arm, thats about it. But most say the second shot produces more reactions. Will see next month when I get the follow up. Anyone else get the Moderna vaccine ? How did you do with it ?
  6. The Z series receiver you have is a nice receiver. Around late 70's ? Those have the spectrum analyzer and the motorized volume, correct ?
  7. You get my drift. Two people listening to the same system will hear it differently. Depends if you have little ears or big ass Dumbo ears !!! Akai R2R's just sound good to me. Those glass heads last forever !!
  8. Say Don... There is something very familiar about that "bowling ball"
  9. Oh it depends on the Sansui item itself. Some of their speakers got a bad rap because of lack of bass. But their Amps and Receivers have that "Smooth Analog Sansui Sound" !! I have a pair of Japan only Sansui SP5000 speakers which are crazy efficient (weigh 100lbs each). Im talking "Who" level db with ZERO distortion. And the sound is crazy good. And some of the SP series speakers where made in collaboration with JBL. Have a pair of SP3500's which are a JBL/Sansui design. Those do lack some in the bass. But when paired with a sub, well they shine. But you have fan boys of all makes. I love all my Akai R2R decks, have several Pioneer TT's but my main TT is a Kenwood KP1100. But I have several higher end Pioneer Receiver's which just dont reach my Sansui 9090db's level of performance. They are nice, but not quite there. But overall sound is relevant to each listener. A simple test.. Listen to any song through speakers (not headphones). Dial in the "bass, mid, and treble to your liking. Now for the fun part. Grab the back of your ear and push it forward just a little. What happened ??? The overall bass, mid and treble changed !!! As the shape of ones ear is manipulated the overall eq of the song changes. So what I find pleasing, may not be pleasing to you, because of the shape of our ears. I do favor the new Yamaha AV Receiver's, but for music.. Its all vintage for me.
  10. Why yes !! Quaaludes, Acid, Mescaline and a few other goodies.
  11. Yes. Old Sansui Stereo Equipment !!!
  12. Just received notification from my bank its in. Be on the look out people !!!
  13. I just shit my pants !!!!
  14. Thats true. Last year we were only open on Tuesday and Wednesday after April 15th. From 10am to 5pm. Shouldn't bitch, I guess. And most had picked up stuff by the end of May. We always have the habitual last minute Oct 15th clients though. Then we start in with farmers calling about whether they need to buy equipment.
  15. I guess it doesn't matter. After a certain date extensions are filed anyway.
  16. Its actually .575 this year You a truck driver ? Over the road or local ? Dont forget your "per diems and expenses"
  17. We gets calls every year form people who do it online and really fuck things up The whole "interview interface" that these online systems use leaves out many important "deductions, stipulations and requirements" . A computer interview can not dig deep to see if one qualifies for certain tax breaks. Looks like a deadline extension may be announced at some point. July 15th like last year is my guess.
  18. Well it passed.
  19. Its getting ready to explode !!!!
  20. Anyone who has unemployment will want to hold off on filing. If and when Biden signs the "Stimulus Package", the first $10,200 in unemployment will be non taxable. Should know by Friday if it passes and is signed. Anyone who has filed and had unemployment can do an amended return. To reduce their taxable income by the amount of unemployment they received up to the $10,200 limit. Unfortunately this puts pressure on the IRS and preparers when they pass legislation mid tax season. Morons !! Also be sure to correctly report your prior stimulus payments, you may be eligible for the balance if you did not receive the full amount previously. If anyone has any questions, PM me.
  21. Zebra !!! I remember they said they were the next Zeppelin !! Bears is a good song. What the hell happen to them !!
  22. Ohh !!! And the wives get extremely HORNY after a concert !! Especially with a band they favor the members !! Billy Idol is my wifes Kryptonite !!! I always get laid after his shows !!! Thanks Billy !!!
  23. Will check it out. The printer I have coming has a resume print feature. But if something goes fubar with it while printing I can see the advantage of remote shut down. I have an old linux based pc laying around. Used it to run some "video" programs back in the early 2000's. Its an old linux build for sure !!! But I can dust it off, update linux and check Octoprint out.
  24. I have a microwave that the latch is cracked. Every year or so the glue breaks and I re-glue it. Tried JB Weld and others to make a permanent fix, but they give out. Now I can just draw and print off a new latch !! Maybe some custom volume / tone knobs for guitars. Looking foward to playing with it. Maybe in a few years the "metal" printers will come down in price !! Star Trek Replicators are on the horizon !!!
  25. Thank You !!! I have CNC Machining background, so I am familiar with G-Codes and tooling offsets, etc.. So the calibration of the actual machine will be easy enough for me. I ordered a glass plate and the Z axis touch probe too. Its the learning curve on filament, which you enlightened me on. Greatly appreciated. Its coming with 2 rolls of PLA, not sure what brand though. I imagine the factory would not send PLA that doesn't work well. Should be here in a couple weeks. Next is research on 3d scanners !! You have any info on inexpensive scanners that work well ?
