Was thinking of running some errands (by bicycle), but it's so dark outside (rain probably not due until 5pm though). Makes me want to hibernate, lol.
@NilaJones Very good point
Update: found I had a brand new tube of travel toothpaste, thus eliminating one item on my shopping list, thus further making me uninspired to foray out into the dark world. Will go sort things outside or in the garage, lol.
(Listening to a new CD, "Jurassic 5: Feedback", which is good, and taking apart a t-shirt for recutting. Really need the subwoofer connected for hip hop. 🤔 )
@ai6yr Rick Rubin (producer) always ran every mix through the smallest speakers possible for the final mix and if the bass wasn't discernible he had it remixed.
(Now I need to run this track through different speakers and see how it goes.)
Sergio Mendes -> Herb Alpert -> John Denver -> Chet Atkins -> Genesis -> Judy Collins -> Jackson Browne -> The Osmonds -> The Doors -> Joan Baez -> Jurassic 5 -> (Bob Marley next in the queue)
@ai6yr the Osmonds -> Doors? That’s dark!
"Legends" Bob Marley is fabulous... I think a Greatest Hits album? (must be since I have heard most of these...) #music
@ai6yr WOW! Can I haz a copy of your playlist?... that's impressive !
@silver_buttercat LOL it's ever evolving (again).... based on what random record or CD I run across. (this all kicked off in the last few months because a friend was moving and selling stuff, and he had some records, and I bought a Kraftwerk LP from him, and needed a turntable to play it... and then another radio friend gave me a turntable I fixed.. and then someone around here had a non-working disassembled Harmon Kardon stereo... lol. I'm like "squirrel!"
@ai6yr Can Bob compete with Donnie?…tough one. 🤣
@ai6yr You found my old mix tapes from my 20s? Cool! 😉
@ai6yr Money saving tip: After a recent flight, I realized I forgot to pack toothpaste. I found you can make the little dollhouse-sized toothpaste tubes they give you in international business class amenity kits last about 4-5 days if you're careful. Take one international round trip per week, and you'll never have to pay for toothpaste again!
@mattblaze @ai6yr Plus, many hotels will give you annoying little packets of toothpaste that must be used up before your next flight (lest you get toothpaste all over whatever container you imprudently put the open packet into).
Tune in next week for more money saving tips like this! 😆
@ai6yr did you see the video where Mathias Wandel made a tool to refill toothpaste tubes?
@ai6yr I'm heading out for the shopping.
I posted a ride yesterday so A and I had a leisurely 25 miler ... but trick or treaters will be here and ... I'm trying to FIGHT the doldrums. But 4378 miles on the year now!! (Yes, I used the "get these last miles for October!!!" to help motivate...)
@ai6yr A nap is indicated.
@ai6yr the seasons or change of seasons takes a time to get adjusted too. I'm far from calibrated yet but I really love all seasons, wouldn't want to live in either a permanent desert or arctic scenario; at least not permanently..🙏 👍
@ai6yr
Given the way SoCal drivers drive in even the lightest rain, plus the holiday, I would really stay off the street today if you can
