I order a speaker, it arives busted, the seller is making out big time while I still have no speaker.

I send out a center speaker to a polkie and it arives all beat up.

I order a watch and they send me the wrong one.

Now the real bad news:

My RS CD-3400 CD player finally gives out.

I hook up my prized Luxman tube CD and while making connections I almost drop it and mash in the tray, it doesn't work anymore.

While messing with the luxman I step on my Nikon CD-rom and break it.

My new out of print CD from ebay for $30 gets messed up when I try the CD-3400 again.

While trying my old DVD player I step on another CD and break it.

I get fed up and open a beer. I spill it all over my Surge suppressor/brown out unit.

My heater just quit in my truck last week.

My front tire keeps going flat each day.

My tire pump burned up today.

**** IT, I'm going to bed!!!

    Oh yea, and I just get a bill today for $705 for home owners association. Just 3 years ago it was $300. So what can I expect, $100+ a year increase?? I don't even use the freakin pool that they are charging me for this year! WTF, Lets all just go bankrupt...

    Well, I had just finished my second one. The third one spilled on my power conditioner. That is when I gave up. Oh well, maybe my luck wasn't too bad. At least I didn't get electrocuted :D

    I will not live where you have to pay for home owners association. Their just like a bunch of old women, nag and want more money. That why I live in the country on 4 acres. No close neighbors.

    On top of that, I have a brand new Ford Explorer on my list in the next 2 months. ****, I even get to keep my Mustang as a weekend play toy!

    You can bet yo **** one of those sweet SVS subs will be on the list late this year.

    MAX - When you coming down to our area? Jeez we are only 20 minutes away!

    John - No DJ for me, but I sure would like to shake my booty! :) Cmon man, where else you gonna find a dude that is black from the waist down? Put me in there real late, and noone will probably know the difference until they get teabagged... :D

    CTC BBQ Amplifier, Sonic Frontiers Line3 Pre-Amplifier and Wadia 581 SACD player. Speakers? Always changing but for now, Mission Argonauts I picked up for $50 bucks, mint.

    I knew Jesse would be all over that.

    Mark, they are having another male review in April, so come on in, climb up on stage and take it off. I DJed the last one on the 1st of this month. Wanna talk about hilarious! Almost 300 screaming out of their mind women throwing loads of cash at these guys. Women have the nerve to call us pigs. Should have seen them!


    Max, get ya **** down here!
