I live in Rhode Island, were the unemployment rate is 10.6. Lots of folks outta work, as well as an alarming number through out. Thank god i still have a job! Have lots of friends without work, able, and honest. These are tough times. But ya know, nothing better than kicking back enjoying your gear! No regrets, for instance hearing Don Henley and the Eagle's belt out the best, from the "Hell Freeze's over" cd. Wont second guess myself for a minute on my new found Hobby! worth every penny! I could be at a soup kitchen tomorrow, but i know my rig will be waitin for me in my Maytag box in the Alley! LOL.:p

    I grew up on Aquidneck Island. Currently living in Middletown. Lots of family, raising the kids here. Cant get away at the moment. Florida looks real good down the road though.:D

    I built up a really nice 2 channel and separate HT rig when I had the money. Now that I am poor I use those two rigs to enjoy life a little better.
