Happy Birthday Mr. Leland.

I'll play The Beatles Birthday track in my head. Real Loud Too. Thanks for the excuse!

Have a good night.

Awwww......Thanks JustSheila.

Great news about your house selling!

Get a good price?

I guess that means your plans for travel are moving ahead?

You're welcome! And I hope you're having an awesome day and weekend!

We got a great price, and it sold in an eyeblink. Four people making offers against each other.

Long wait, though - at the buyer's request, we agreed to a 12 week move-out instead of the standard 6.

Wow, that is quite a wait.

Well, it gives you plenty of time to sort out everything.

Congratulations.

:)

Damn Gib, nice work!

Yea, plugging away.

Sold some gear last month....and listing some more.

Sold a Linn Itok IV tonearm for some decent jack.

Its been raining consoles here....I've picked up 4 in the last month or so....

Not much money in it...but some.

1 Fisher, 2 Magnavox and 1 GE.

Problem is....I don't want to sell.

The Fisher was a good deal...bought for $60 and could sell the amp unrestored for around $250.

The Magnavoxs are very popular. They would sell easy peazy....but I'm using one, and it sounds great.

The GE was interesting. A stereo amp and also a mono amp to run a reverb spring box. (going to sell this to some guitar guy probably....)

Lots of good tubes. :)

Have you noticed how ya just don't heal from minor injury as quickly as when you were much younger?
And ya hafta use TWO sets of glasses for distance, reading, and then computer? Ha.

Yes Programmer_guy, you hit the nail on the head....

But I blame it on the Cult....:biggrin:

Well, usually, I just ignore any and all birthdays, including my own, except the one of my child. But since you asked so nicely: Happy birthday to you, Leland!

I hear you MrNobody....me too. But 60. WoW It is a milestone.

I am proud of making it to this age, relatively intact. :p

Who needs merits?

Yeah, I understand that very well. :thumbsup:

It's just that I use a different set of milestones: Every day I don't feel worse than the day before, is a small milestone. Every day I feel better than the day before, deserves a mega-milestone. :coolwink:

I found a few of these AR1 speakers several years ago, paid 100 bucks for them,

sold them on Ebay for 3000, they went to Korea.

May the force be with you on your tube amps. :thumbsup:

$3,000??? Is that right, Gib?

Why so much? I have some old speakers - is there some sort of demand now?

Let me know, please - I'm doing a lot of eBay stuff now, trying to get rid of all this stuff around here.

Anybody want an aluminium shed? :coolwink:
