    Two favorites in one photo.

    I've seen that look on a cat's face before --- and it didn't end well for the tape that was playing. :/


    PS Boy howdy are there some fun trinkets in that photo!! :)
    Is that a REL tuner or a Rohde & Schwarz? I am pretty sure it's the latter(??).
    Whatever it is... I wish I had one! :)

    Yes, there is definitely some interesting gear there. A Nagra power amp on each side of the right hand rack.

    The B77 is just about the most pedestrian component in the photo! ;)

    meanwhile, back at the ranch...

    I remember a review of some speaker system in The Absolute Sound described it as sounding "butterscotch". I sort of understood what he meant.

    Not sure of the speaker system, but I think butterscotch was used for Conrad-Johnson electronics.

    Screen Shot of mother taking care of Baby Eagle hatched on Wednesday February 10 at Berry College in Rome Georgia. The nest weighs about 2000 pounds according to spokesman. The area around the nest is fenced off to keep people, predators, etc away. It has a viewing area of the surrounding woods with strict people rules.

    Our youngest daughter, the last one in our "nest", has been accepted to attend Berry in the Fall. She wants to do something in the environmental sciences. Looks like an amazing campus (we haven't had an opportunity to visit yet). Thanks for posting!

    I am not absolutely sure, but I suspect that one could use a Raspberry Pi as well.

    This afternoon we had the sudden appearance of a bunch of eastern bluebirds in the backyard! They're around the neighborhood, but we rarely see 'em in the yard and never as many as we had today. Mrs. H counted ten. I tried to get some photos. Did not get them all in one picture and my photos were all pretty crummy... but at least you can tell they are bluebirds (barely) and that there are seven of 'em in the photo. :)

    Younger people wouldn't understand that.
    Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them.

    That's funny. I called Highway patrol once because I passed one about 4 ft in diameter in the middle of I-84 one evening. The dispatch lady asked me if I would roll it off the road for them...
