^ Keep posting! The most hated camera of 2025 will be released tomorrow. Sounds kinda fun. Too bad about the $150 Orange Tax.

I listened to that album before going to sleep every night for probably 5 months.

“Wendt showed up as Norm over the years on St. Elsewhere, Wings, The Simpsons, Family Guy, Frasier and The Tortellis and as himself on Seinfeld and The Larry Sanders Show. He also had recurring roles on The Naked Truth and Sabrina the Teenage Witch and guest-starred on other series like Alice, Soap, Hart to Hart, Becker, Hot in Cleveland, Columbo, Harry’s Law, Fresh Off the Boat and The Goldbergs.“ That’s pretty impressive. Also in Hairspray on Broadway.

Yep and more. Love the subverting.

Up for audiophile versions of those too.

Trying to keep up. Du Blonde’s Sniff More Gritty. Ex.

Mr. Polaroid

Sorry to hear Steve. You have a virii sibling in Esmé who just tested positive for mono. Their IG is like a crime scene of food sharing photos and videos.

Sorry to hear Steve.

He’s back

Remember? Midori was my gateway drink. Manly drinking hard liquor. Cake looks yummy.

Thanks for the suggestions Grahame. Extrons are responsible for too many headaches at work to be allowed in my home. The Solupeaks/Soulpeaks seem good cheap options. Using even cheaper Y-splitters until I decide how vain to be.
