    Congratulations George and Mrs. Grand! Maybe a little swing music to dance to for your 30th?

    Taken from a recent Audioholics reply regarding "Club Polk" and Polk speakers:
    "I'm yet to hear a Polk speaker that merits more than a sentence and 60 seconds discussion." :\
    My response is: If you need 60 seconds to respond in one sentence, you probably should't be evaluating Polk speakers.....

    You got ten years on my wife and I, we will be celebrating twenty years in December. Sorry to say that it is rare for a marriage to last so long these days. Congratulations! My wife and I don't actually count the years like most. We decided that rather than commit for until death do you part we would sign on for a one hundred year contract after which we can go fool around with whoever we want! So we only have eighty years to go! Wooo Hooo!!!!!
