thanks for the info in regards to the LPs. Any thoughts on leaving the equipment and computers in place?

After a long absence I have returned. The issue I am facing is that the triplex apartment that I live in has a problem with bedbugs (in the other apartments!). So my landlord is bringing in an exterminator to alleviate the problem by using extreme dry heat over a period of time (2 days). I...

Thank you century tek! Followed your suggestions and all is well. The Maggie now sits in the front room of a house built in the 1930s and that red mahogany cabinet really looks at home there. As for how it sounds.....:beerchug: .

Several months ago got acquainted with this young couple and their new venture. Started a small shop upstairs in a downtown mini-mall. Just recently an opportunity opened up for them to move to a street level location that looks to triple the size of their operation. So if you ever venture to...

Wow! A trip down memory lane for me with the 1957 Sears catalog. Got the Shell service station for Christmas and then the 24 inch J.C. Higgins bicycle the next summer for my birthday. For 8-9 yrs old I was on top of the world. As for the 1970s Wards catalog- I was a young (22) married and...
