@cdcI hope you split what he recovered for you....the guy risked his skin for your cash.....even if he turned around and just drank it all up, it'd be the fair thing to do.
Merry Christmas to everyone on here. Let's hope 2024 continues to bring some interesting gear to market and keeps pushing the envelope at every price point.
All the well-wishes at Christmas on Audiogon remind me of a story from WWI. The fighting between trenches stopped on Christmas and gifts were supposedly tossed between trenches! I hope that's a true story.
My analogy to Audiogon is a very farfetched one -obviously- but we do have a few flame wars here and there.
I do appreciate you all though, even the slightly cranky folks. I have learned so much from this valuable resource. Of course I have a long way to go and that's A-okay!
I shall quote my late father with something he said every traditional Christmas meal (although he said it in Polish). It's an old Carpathian blessing as we passed around the oplatki (big, rectangular holy wafers) and each said a little something before eating:
"Wishing you health, wealth and happiness, and in death the Heavenly Crown."
To everyone here - all the best and thanks for all your posts and questions. Very much appreciated. Every week I see an accident on the high way 287 in New Jersey. Yesterday morning, the same. Two cars together, horn blowing and smoke rising. All I can say is thank GOD for air bags.
So all of you, Happy Listening and stay safe. And i you are ever in New Jersey, stop by for a listen. Everyone is always welcome.
It is Christmas Eve, and it’s time to reflect on the many blessings we do have, As I have aged as a baby boomer, the important trio present themselves ever progressively and more graphically key each passing year:
- Health
- Family
- Friends
Up here north of the 49th parallel in Canada , we have two official languages ….English and French.
- Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year !
- Joyeux Noël et Bonne Année !
Two Christmas Eve classics:
I I believe in Father Christmas - Greg Lake - Ian Anderson
