    I got a brand new grandson for Christmas.

    Congratulations, @lightman1!

    My grandson turned two on 2 November. He spent five and a half months with my wife and me while his parents worked remotely from our home from mid-March through August. Having that time with the little guy was pure joy! (My wife did most of the work involved.)

    The next months will be precious. Enjoy them while you can.

    aspiring shaman -- the mind boggles.

    Meanwhile, I am going to whup up a pot of cheezy mac tea.

    Did some Jetty fishing at Port Canaveral today. Little kid mybwife baby sits got this little Blennie. My wife got this 4 to 5 ft eel. I thought I was going to break the pole trying to pull him out of the rocks. He really dug in. I was not going anywhere near his mouth. I cut the leader as close as I could. You have to zoom in to get a look at him.

    Went for a ride in my neighbors 63 Sting Ray. What a blast. Brought back a lot of memories of driving around in my dads 68 Datsun Roadster 2000. This vette has a 63 327 in it. So about 200 hp. But the car is light and feels a lot faster than you would think 200 hp could be.

    ooooh -- that'll raise some hackles! ;)

    But, yeah, I am in complete and total agreement -- then again, I use a single-ended, direct heated triode audio power amplifier... so I kind of would be expected to ;)

    They had more horsepower than 200. The lowest was 250 hp. The highest a Stingray even had was a 427, 435 hp in later years. I believe it was 1967.

    That body was such a radical design when it came out, some people didn't like the looks of it. Kind of like the current Vette. I loved it.

    Anyone remember the "Grand Sport" Vette? It was a special racing version of the Vette with a lot of weight taken out.

  • My bud had a 66 big block roadster up till a few years ago. He bought it in 68 for 3k and it still had the original paint and a Bloomington survivor. I about crapped what he sold it for, $90k. He had a lot of fun years with the car. The color wasn't very desirable though, metallic pea green with a white top.

    Just saw these amps posted @ AK.
    Makes it easy to ID the Left and Right channels, doesn't it? :)
