$14? That’s more than… never mind.[;)][:-^] You’ve got quite a job ahead of you with masking the 600. How do you plan to redo the red window outlines? That is one of the reasons that I am hesistant to restore the 766.
I bought myself another Christmas gift this Saturday. I found a decent 755 Talking Station on ebay with a buy it now of $60. The reproducer and original record are there, so I think I got a good deal. My dad has the later 799, and I always wanted a 755 to go with it. His 799 had its original record that was red with yellow labels, but it didn’t survive 20 straight years in my grandmother’s attic. In the twelve years I’ve been browsing ebay, I’ve only seen one of the red records. Doyle’s book makes no mention of it. I’ve had to settle for the Continental Limited repro record.
Howdy all! Back in the online community. Boy, you don’t realize how connected you’ve become until you’re not. I’ll post an update later on today or tomorrow.
Ray, A belated congratulations and blessings in the future to both of you. We are only eight years behind.
Anjdevil, A forced relocation is never fun. Aren’t relocation costs deductible? The good news is that you will be near the LHS in Broomall. I know, like mee when I visited there a few weeks ago, all I did was fream. It will work out.
Fortunately, this is a move that keeps me in the company and I could take it or just stay here. Nice thing would be that I’d actually be near Just Trains (in the Christiana Mall!) and, again NO sales tax. Just need to think it through and ask for guidance. Something will happen, just not sure what or when. Gee, I’d be closer to YORK of all things…and the land of basements.
That is true for anywhere above the M&D. [:-^][(-D]
Back from lake. Lucy and I stayed extra. Both came home tired. [she is curled up in her little pink bed] Got a lot done and came home with all my fingers and toes with no stitches. [(-D] I’m going to start Coffee Pot number 14 as do not plan on staying up until midnight to start it.
Buckeye, get well.
Sir J., delayed reaction GRITS. [had them specially done just for his shipment. will explode in a few days.]
Guess what? It rained today and tonight. Guess what it is going to do Wednesday? You guessed it. Well, at least it isn’t Snohio.
75 emails to read.
Later
PS: Buckeye must really be sick not to catch my reply to the thread:
Frost on the windshield this morning. Turned out to be a sunny day in the 50’s.
Took my wife in for a lumbar epidural steroid injection treatment today. All seems to have gone well. Results of the treatment should begin to show up tomorrow or Wednesday. In the common language, the doctor injects steroids into the offending disc to reduce whe swelling and relieve pressure on the nerve, all guided by a fluoroscope. In even more basic language ‘you are going to stick that needle where and do what???’ We are expecting two more treatments over the next six weeks.
My turn at the doctor’s tomorrow, at the company’s request. Ear exam. I’ll be told that my hearing is deteratoring and that I probably have tinitus - as if I have not noticed. Hearing loss runs in my family, and I’m about at that age where it starts.
Brutus - it is not a big job. It is just a 95 year old house with ‘character’.
Got the turkey carcas cooked down into broth. Looking forward to the turkey rice soup. We haven’t made any in a long, long time.
No train activity, though I am planning to prepare something for this week’s SPF.
