    It's especially awesome when you're overseas and need to deposit a check into your US account!

  Cleaned new LP. Put it back in sleeve. Took it out to play. Looked at grooves w/ magnifier. Debris! Re-cleaned b4 playing. Sigh...

  Not sure what happened to Star Wars franchise. My son, a HUGE fan, said he has given up on Star Wars. What changed?!

    “Lando in a sexual relationship with a robot” Damn you Bill, now I HAVE to watch it.
    
    Agreed on Rogue One, it’s the only one of any worth. But even there only so much.

    I went in with ZERO knowledge or exposure to DP. After a few minutes, I'm like... kinda reminds me of... Chic?! Then... noticed the Nile Rodgers credits on the album. No wonder I fell for DP/RAM so quickly!

  Ever have days where the music just sounds better than it has in a long time? Same gear, same listening area... better experience? Weird!!

    I sincerely think there are so many things that affect our enjoyment of music it can be really hard to account for them all. Could be a slight volume adjustment, less ambient noise, sinuses being clearer, a good glass of whisky etc. etc. Enjoy the music.

    Absolutely. Human are rather variable and can be influenced by good / bad days. Effects long known in the wine industry.

    Yes, music sounds very different when tired vs full of energy. Often for no obvious reason. This is why I find very fast judgments of gear always suspect. On a good day very mediocre stuff can sound awesome and vice versa.

  Pre-ordered RedDeadRedemption2 for PC. Rollout plagued with issues. Freezes, crashes, high CPU usage, etc. Great when works, though.

  Going to try a Texas rig set-up for some bass fishing this weekend. I'm a total n00b with it, but it should be fun.
