I'd say make a grilled cheese sandwich with quality Gruyere and Cheddar and take a nap after.

You see, in this world there's two kinds of children, my friend: Those with Playstation 5s and those who dig.

Parents feeding their kids is also a social construct. The Ancients tossed their kids in the salt mines quite early.

Transformer-coupled transimpedance transistor amplifiers are also verboten.

They got all the best weapons though.

 

Hey for $4.50, I'm pretty happy, plus it comes with a Bluray. I hope my next thrift find is a UHD player...

I thought those were just standard embossed letters but they're actually stickers and look really good. This is why I like physical media. And 1980s cheese.

 

Couldn't believe it. Not a big fan or anything but I paid 10$ for both sets.

 

Another one of my lucky finds. It's in pretty good shape but needs new belts. It's a monster to take apart and I don't have any belts so it's a bookend for now. 20$ is reasonable, and it looks so cool.

 

Heathkit Model O-12 tube oscilloscope. Found this among old suitcases and kid's toys at a Friperie Renaissance/Goodwill in MontrΓ©al. It still works, it's clean, I didn't need to do anything and it powered up.

 

In the last few months I decided to see what I could find on DVD and Blu-ray. It's a matter of luck and persistence but I do find good stuff now and then. Anyone else find missing Blu-rays from combo Blu-ray and DVd sets? Or DVD-Rs instead of pressed? And how do some people manage to scratch their discs so impressively?

 

Haven't seen this street performer in many years. Don't know if it's the same guy, he does look plumper now. In front of St James United March 8 afternoon.
