we miss our little hooligans, too -- most of the time, at any rate.
Zappa (the one in the photo that's black and white grey on the average) did some hifi component damage in his time -- including popping a reel to reel tape as it played on myRT-909 in the living room. I had foolishly gone to another room... and, suddenly, there was silence.
The other one, Timmy, came close.
I think I've told the story here before. When I brought home my (beautiful) pair of Altec 604E Duplexes, acquired from a friend & hifi fellow traveler in southwestern Vermont, I put them in the basement to await the cabinets that were being built for them. Given that they're, in some respects, quite fragile, and relatively hard (and not inexpensive) to repair or to replace, I draped a couple of towels over the baskets with the goal of protecting the back side of the woofer cones.
Later that same evening I had a bad feeling about their well being, so I went downstairs to check on them.
Timmy had, apparently beat me to it.
I think I found a couple of large boxes for them immediately after defusing the situation.
You know the cat motto: If I fits, I sits.

In my hometown, when I was a kid, there was a restaurant called Coney Island Lunch that served delicious hot dogs that the counter guy would line up on his arm. Everyone called them "sweats" and the choice one was the one he placed in the crook of his arm. The legend was that it absorbed the most amount of flavor.

We would just ask for "the works" and a cherry (smash) coke, the slightly rancid chopped onions added to the total flavor. I've never seen onions chopped so fine, they were like confetti. The dogs were thin, skinny with a tough skin, my Aunt Ella knew somebody who worked there and they would sell her a dozen uncooked versions and she would bring them to picnics.
