Found out we need to replace our gas fireplace. $13k

I'll give you $500 for the 65" LG TV if you need some extra scratch to fix it.

"oops i meant to buy a whole vinyl stereo system and they sent this catback i have wanted for 3+years, it would be wasteful to send this back now...."

Lady phur has a tight grip.

I tried that in South Dakota last year. Did not end well. Drove the car 4 times in 3 months.

My wife wanted to put up Christmas decorations 2 weeks ago. I refused, came home a few days ago and Christmas decorations were half up

Wife made me put up the tree on Sunday. Too early but whatever. Did you get your car running?

 

[Strange Mud]

Stereo for Mrs Phur and exhaust for yourself?

Merry Christmas to one and all

That is one of the many reasons I no longer live in CT.

The weather in North Carolina is much more pleasant.

Not pulling the trigger yet, by any means, but I happened upon a possible one and done solution. Fluance has paired systems, turntables and powered speakers. The turntables feature upgradable cartridges for the future.

Turntable
Speakers
I was thinking about speaker placement and a possible solution occurred to me, but I don’t know how I feel about it yet. I could make custom wall shelves and have the speakers on either side of the TV. Thoughts?

Remember that sound doesn't come straight at you, but also reflects from all surfaces, so the front left needs to mirror the location of the front right or the imaging will be off - the same with doorways, windows etc.

The closer the speakers get to the corners of the room, the more sound will be reflected

If the turntable is connected to the speakers via RCA jacks, how will the TV be connected to the speakers? Are you planning on adding a sub? What are you going to do for the center channel?

that turntable is probably fine though, and the AT cartridge is a decent budget product.

Have you thought about Sonos?

CSB: Dinner plans were to cook chicken parmigiana for dinner. At like 6:15 my wife said "Let's go to Roger Williams Zoo to see the Christmas lights". So we did that, got back at like 8:30. Went to go cook dinner, realized we don't have any breadcrumbs. That's on my wife, since she makes the grocery list, I do the shopping. So I figure alright, I'll just cook these 4 cheese raviolis I have in the fridge. I pull them out, my wife goes "Do we have any sauce? Did you replace it?"; last Sunday when I went shopping, the bottle of spaghetti sauce broke in the shopping bag. Nope, no sauce. Don't feel like going out, so now she's eating in the last of the Thanksgiving leftovers, and I'm eating some depressing Hot Pockets I found in the freezer.

Going to follow it up with an apple pie milkshake made with our homemade apple pie though, so I have that going for me at least.
