Well today started off not to bad, just taking care of some unfinished business around the house. About an hour after lunch the wife comes outside to inform me that the youngest of our kids had the grill off of the 15's and that I had better come and take a look at it. I just about **** a brick, he had pulled it down and in the process had snapped it right into two pieces and the only thing holding it together was the grill clothe. Now I must find a means to repair it or make new one and just get new grill clothe and recover both of them. What would you do?

As if this was not enough the clan was out for a bit so I decided to take a break and pull some listening time for myself while they where gone, I put in one of my favorite c.d. compilations that I had made and commenced to crash and burn for while. Was about 15 minutes into it when it started to sound funny so I get up to go over and see what the problem is and as I am walking that way I started to smell something odd, that odd smell was my ten year old pioneer giving up the ghost and so rolled the smokage. So now I am stuck with no h.t. or two channel listening pleasure. Needless to say I have not had a good day and I have no funds for a new reciever right now as I am being audited by the i.r.s Grrrrrrrrrrrr.

Hope nobodyelse is having as bad a day as I am.




Cheers (I guess),
Mike

    Here comes the "you don't have it that bad" comments.

    But I say, MAN that sucks! While it could always be worse..it certainly could be better. Good luck on the rest of your day chief.

    you should have planned better. I have a pioneer that was never mentioned before, it can serve at least in a 2 channel capacity.

    sorry about your bad luck and I am not looking forward to my turn.
