I think you'll find it was the other way round ;)

Ya, that's it. She's aw'right. I could do worse. Have done, in fact. She's due in mid April.

Already talking about "all of those cords" that will be "in the way"... To which I say, "In the way of what?!? Pick the kid up, already, and try walking behind the speakers, not right through the soundstage!"

PMC BB5 XBD-A Never going to own at 32k (which isn't all that bad considering it includes all that Bryston goodness)

They make pretty good stuff, I've only heard their FB1i and PB1i speakers, which unfortunately are a bit too inefficient for the amps I prefer. I heard'em with a Bryston amp and they do sound pretty good, but I'd like to have more bass kick. Which the big PMCs should deliver.

Good question! :eek: Plus, my sort-of, kind-of, not-really but I think of her that way, daughter, is getting married in Florida the week after CanJam. I'd been planning to be in Illinois with the motorhome before CanJam and then fly out to Florida with my mom for 3 days for the wedding.

But where does one put an angry, feeling neglected, broken hearted, ("Why is your ex-fiancee's daughter's wedding more important than me and your own child?") kind of woman for 3 days while you go off to do that sort of thing?

There I was, 47, single, and completely unattached. A man with many toys, time on his hands, all sorts of interesting hobbies and friends, the ability to travel anywhere at a moment's notice, no 9-to-5 to worry about...

This sort of thing conjurs up all kinds of fears! I might have to go to work again! Ehhh!!! Moving all the cables and booby trapping everything else may turn out to be the least of it.

Growing up at 47 :D

It saddens me. As a married schlub, Wayne was my icon of absolute freedom and unfettered self-indulgence. It's like seeing a magnificent panda wrest from his primordial bamboo thicket and set to capering for small coins in the dingy square of some dusty provincial hamlet. Or something. :(

Well my take on it is that one needs to celebrate the fact he lasted this long. I mean the guy has an Ariel Atom! Change sucks but it's part of life.

The reality is that Wayne is going to love being a dad but it is going to cramp his freedom something fierce. I am betting he will work it out so that he can still travel plenty but certainly not as much as previously. It will be interesting to watch how you handle it either way, buddy! :P
