The wimmen (wife and daughters) in the family all went to San Diego, and I decided to stay home (something about four adult women and me in one hotel room).

So it's four days of listening and watching whatever I want at whatever volume I want. :biggrin: The've been gone for two hours and I'm on my second cd already. :tongue:

The Indy 500 is much better with music playing instead of the commentary.
My equipment sig felt inadequate and deleted itself.

    The Indy 500 is even better on DVR so you can fast forward to the crashes and the end lol... and add in some liquor....

    I enjoy when no one is home. Even if it's just for a few hours. Something about a quite house.

    I'm old (52) what can I say?:tongue: I haven't done this for 11 yrs since we moved to Tucson from Seattle. If I were still up ther this would be four days of fishing.

    Still, How often do us guys get four days alone with our systems. I"ve already done one minor upgrade that I'm happy with.:biggrin:

    I went out in the backyard and found a handfull of DIY magic rocks, and I can't tell you what a difference it makes. ( actually, I changed out a couple of drivers in my cs350 to make it right).

    The next upgrade is some of those sonically tuned outlet covers. :wink:

    Living with 4 women, I think we should put you in for the Nobel peace prize....lol

    Among the things you can enjoy; hot water, music as loud as you want, no pestering because something in the house isn't working and not having to move someone elses car to get out of the driveway.
