lol, search engine. Five years ago, I that the famous house from Ferris Bueller's Day Off was for sale. It finally sold for $1M, well below the original $2.35M asking price. Turns out it was a bit of a high falutin' fixer-upper. The man behind @gselevator A rack mounted TR-808. Ya don't see one of those every day. Lisa Baker, 1966. Click for a better look.

Oi-Skall Mates ‎– 12-Mates Skall Nighter Woo..... A glorious, absolutely batshit insane Japanese ska album. Since 2001, it has only been on the internets in 128k mp3. A CD copy has appeared on the 'Bay for $50-100 a couple times over the last dozen or so years. I scored one for $10 last fall, and just FLAC'd it with 100% log (you don't need to know what that means.) I am now enjoying the fruits of my labors.

Bumping this thread because I'm still in need of such an item. Are the UFi UCubes OOP? AMZN doesn't have them, and neither does the AAPL store or Crutchfield. UFI's website is up, but none of the purchase links work.

For all the things I hate about Faecesbook, it amuses me to no end to see John Carter make a post about a DAT deck, and get answers from Darren Emerson, J Saul Kane, Jagz Kooner, and Mixmaster Morris. Maybe this Information Age thing has some merit after all. Click for more reflections.

Brent! I still say "Brent Lawson" is like the least Mexican-sounding name ever...

DarTZeel products amuse me to no end. I've never heard any, so my amusement is derived solely from their looks (and ca. 1994 pirate BBS capitalization scheme). Supposedly, Frank Herbert based House Harkonnen on the Swiss. These two thoughts are more related than one might think.

^ Thanks Brent, but the joke's on me. MA bureaucracy wins again. Turns out that the agent I scheduled an appointment with (over a month ago) is only able to help seniors get health insurance. Even though I might look like one, I am in fact not a senior. This tidbit of information would have been handy to know, but none of the people on the other end of the half dozen phone conversations I had every saw fit to point it out to me. I am back to square one (well, square two, I've got all the sodding paperwork in order on my end) and once again am diving face first into the slow, churning gears of the Taxachusetts bureaucracy. This should be a hoot. Fun side note: The agent I met with had the first name of Tyll, pronounced "Till." He's of Dutch descent and named after a folk figure. He's something of an amateur photographer, having shot both 35mm and 120mm with Rollei. I did not learn his position on headphones or motorbikes.

Spent the morning getting a lot of paperwork in order. In a few minutes I'm off to apply for Taxachusetts health care, so I can NOT DIE.

lol, multitasking Glen Brown, 1979
