What do you get your wife?She's not a diamond or pearls kind of girl,so instead I bought her tickets to see Van Morrison.He's one of her favorites,going to be in San Fransisco Friday night at the Nob Hill Masonic Center.Staying at the Mark Hopkins hotel walking distance to the show,nice fall evening strolling through the streets of SF.Good food,music and my girl.She should remember this one for a while.

    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.....

    Memories... that's what you will /have given her. Nothing is better than spending a great time with your other half, creating those memories.
