Glad you and Debbie are OK Mike. I saw the news had reported 4 tornados in the Chicago suburbs. Stay safe my friend.

Wow! Really glad you are all safe. Our only brush with destruction on that scale in the UK was the hurricane that supposedly wasn't. On the BBC weather forecaster called Michael Fish said: "A few hours before the Great Storm of 1987 broke, on 15 October 1987, Fish said during a televised weather forecast: "Earlier on today, apparently, a woman rang the BBC and said she heard there was a hurricane on the way. Well, if you're watching, don't worry, there isn't!" When it hit, the severity of the storm, which was in fact the worst to hit South East England for three centuries, caused record damage and killed 19 people.

That's fucked up! Glad you guys are safe but that must have been wild!

I usually go for the lobster roll, but I might have to try that next time.

He's so polite and professional. I really enjoyed this. Unrelated: math rock

It’s like a metronome set at 2 and 4.

Visited the Lowell [MA] Folk Festival this weekend. Good food, good music, and fun to people-watch. Caught some Vocal Harmony group, Bluegrass/string, Zydeco, Haitian drummers & dancers, and - my favorite - some Tuvan musicians doing throat-singing. In the last pic, the two young ladies in front of me were loving the Tuvan singing, they kept smiling and looking at each other, I could see one mouth "Wow" several times.

Very nice! But....needs more cowbell 🤣

Yeezh.

We watched 100+ MPH winds blow through Monee yesterday. It was not fun. Here's some pics from our block and our main fire station.

I miss Dr Leo. Thanks Internet.

I didn't build this, but it definitely looks like the group buy ones, this was built in 2017 also, so time frame was not long after the groupbuy.

those were the caps from the group buy? they turned out to have significant longevity issues.

Wanted to say that i have a headinclouds built KGSSHV from 2017. Rarely used, maybe 500 ish hours over the years. Turned it on yesterday to fizzle. Found both blue 680uf caps have blown... Hopefully nothing else. Will be reading this topic in the coming weeks!. Lucky i still have a Kerry T2 to use.
