Goldfrapp - Supernature

I didn't think you would buy it popped into my head immediately because he borrowed it for one day over a year ago. 😆 Just noticed that this is page @909 in this thread. Edit: Actually it became one after 909 with my post. Not planned but funny anyway.

I listened the McBride-Meyers past Saturday and found it really enjoyable. Deserving some repeating

Joanne and I enjoyed the series. Plenty of Guy Ritchie "Colour". The Locations and outfits add a lot to the experience. Be on the look out for the effortless "septic" comment from Ray Winstone's character. I can explain it later if you like.

Started watching "The Gentlemen" on Netflix this weekend, and am finding it quite enjoyable. Good acting, well filmed. Stars Theo James and Kaya Scodelario.

That's why they're considered luxury brands. Luxury is all about spending money and getting new bling in exchange.

A few snaps from another PhotoFair. Just like headphone meets, but without the fun, cool people.

I think my art is getting better. At least more consistent, if still bad. I waggle the pitcher too much at the beginning. This shot was too coarse and spat a lot, as you can see the from the rim, but it was a tasty cup. Califia oat barista milk.

Picked up an excellent condition F100 with 35 f/2 for less than the lens goes for. I wanted both the camera and lens this time, but mostly the lens. The f100 will replace my N8008, once I have used the roll up in the 8008. Also bidding on expired 35mm film, because why not spend more money on film.

Bananaphiles represent!

Not now, but this morning. This is a new discovery for me from Trader Joe's. On a toasted, buttered bagel, it's fantastic! A little goes a long way. I'd imagine it'd also be wonderful on vanilla ice cream.

You shall ride eternal, shiny and chrome!

Coke and aluminum foil on the falcon... hmmm.. 🧐

Alternatively

Was in the mid-40s and sunny today, took the bike off the trainer and decided to get the heck outside.

Is that some kind of heterosexual innuendo?

Beavers are busy working on this wood

This is about as late as a reply can get (what can I say, I don't check in as often as I used to), and this was AGES ago, so I may very well be misremembering, but I think the first turntable I bought was Ari's old PS-X5. Vintage Sony PS-X turntables seem to be made for the head-case crowd. Too bad they are a reliability nightmare (specifically with the auto functions) but boy, they sure sounded good. I actually just replaced my rig after a brief love affair with my vinyl collection, where I remembered that I liked the activity but wasn't completely happy with my setup. Now rocking the lovely but much more trouble-free Technics SL-100C with a VM95SH into some KEFs in my living room setup. I'm sure it can get better than this but it's hard to imagine by much. Sure my high-res digital sources still probably sound better, but I still dig the romance of spinning bumpy plastic. And it's fun to spin vinyl at a party over my multi-room audio setup even if streaming vinyl over Wi-Fi feels wrong. Oh, and yeah, where some may have speaker stands, I have cat trees. The price of having pets. (P.S. back to the topic at hand, being a relative young'un, my first record was Arcade Fire's Funeral. I will accept your judgment.)

if you can ship it and it still works..yes
