NWI INGO General Thread #27 - Fresh Pink Air On US-30 smells like...

[sadclownwp]

Well after seeing how much blue ray players are going for on Amazon now. I went to a few pawn shops here in Kokomo. One of them doesn't even take dvd or cd players anymore. The third one I visited had a nice Sony 4k Blue ray player with wifi connectivity. I talked them down to $30.

None of the pawn shops take just CD players anymore. And only one of them still takes CD's. Apparently there is no money in it. So I still need to get something like a 3 piece CD player for the garage. I would kill to bring back the days of my friends being in the garage with the door open, doing oil changes on each others cars, listening to CD's, drinking beers, and smoking cigars or hookah. Unfortunately, I can't bring back the days of doing that and being under 18, lol.

Does the time still flash 12:12

Well yes.
I lose power often, due to power lines going thru the woods.
I gave up, and only set the stove and microwave

@sadclownwp I have this CyberHome DVD player. (Yes, it's dusty. Should have dusted it off before I took the pics, but it is what it is.) I bought it at a garage sale but never tried it. It's $60 on Amazon. If you can use it and can pick it up in Crown Point, you are welcome to it. There is no rush, if you would like to wait until you're up this way.

@sadclownwp I do have the remote after all. Just found it.

I still spin and collect vinyl. My 4yr knows how to change, start, and find individual songs as well as how to make the switch from 33 to 45s with the adapter and speed selector.

I was just listening to my Sinatra LPs and my Dad's Lionel Hampton LPs last night. 1s and 0s are more accurate, but I do love my vinyl.

There is no substitute for vinyl! Try as they may, cd’s and digital streaming still do not match the sound quality of good vinyl being played on a good turntable. Listen carefully and you can hear the difference between the antiseptic sound of digital and the warmth and depth of analog, analog wins.
Hands down.

@actaeon277 is this a common courthouse thing? Friend of mine posted this. Didn’t know if this was just a local to him option.

I appreciate it. I just bought a bluray player. Thank you very kindly for your offer.

No problem. If anyone else can use it, let me know.

I have no idea.
We'd probably have to ask people that work at the courthouse.
I know some government offices have contributed flags to our retirement box.

This is a first and not in a bad way. Hadn't seen anything like this in my any of the courthouses I've been.

I think I've heard thunder a couple of times this morning...

I got a bunch of CD's from a buddy who was gonna throw them away today. He called me up out of no where and asked if I wanted them. They were taking up room and most of the cases have been thrown away little by little over the last 30 years. He was the first in our group to have a CD player and we spent days listening to every one of these. I could not let them go to waste. The problem is that neither of us has a disk player anymore. I need to invest in one.

I would just grab a usb external one...

unpopular opinion for you old people and hipster kids. vinyl is not worth the pita it is. I have never regretted ridding myself of the 500+ frisbees and all the crap it took to play them. Not to mention having to move them. It's a retro novelty at best.

Rained like hell here overnight.

Rained like hell here overnight.

Last night, thunder and lightning. Dogs told me it was very very frightening.
