Hi all..

I had a nice, albeit short visit with George today. I brought him his B&K amp back, cleaned a pre-amp, picked up a tuner for my 2 channel setup, and paid for some previous purchases. Thanks George for opening up your home again, especially during this busy holiday season!

    James is a welcome visitor. I got a small chuckle yesterday when he whacked his head ONCE on the lamp in my room that I've whacked my head on at least 1,000 times now. It doesn't hurt but it feels dumb as hell when it happens. I'm going to move it, but probably not until I whack myself a few more times.

    You have to be an **** on purpose, or at least 50% of the time Bizill. Personally, I don't think you've got it in you. Merry Christmas man.

    George go to a Palmist. They predict the future by reading lumps on your head.

    I hope he brings his lunch, and is ready for the War and Peace of heads.

    Why aren't they called Headists, or Lumpologists?:D

    Sounds like it was a good visit, George sounds like a gracious host.
