What Possessed Me to Do This?


We are working on "de-cluttering" our home to list it for sale in April, need to have my "man cave" painted first.  To prepare for the painters' arrival, am boxing up my audio system, moving the components to a "climate controlled" storage unit.  I got the lighter stuff boxed up without assistance.  My son helped me place my 110# power amp on the carpeted floor, flip it over to bolt it to the plywood for the base of the inner carton, eventually getting it boxed and double-boxed, taped up and ready to go.  One of my son's friends is coming over for dinner, to help box up a pair of 122# speakers and a pair of 133# sub woofers.

What possessed me to get equipment that weighs so much?

*L* Consider this move a required high-intensity low interval required jaunt to the local gym.  Unfortunately, all the exercises are with weights.  Remember to bend the knees, please.  'Squat is hot.' ;)
And don't try to 'clean and jerk' Anything....

...and blankets are your friends....*S*
@ejr1953 ...*G*  Well....

Welcome to Asheville, although this greeting is a bit early.  Since you're moving here, I'll assume you're already somewhat familiar with the locale and the locals....

The fact that I'm one of 'them' shouldn't dismay you.  There's certainly no houses under construction (or even will be) now or ever near me. ;)

Relative safety in anonymity....*G*

Celebrate your new 'digs' @ Dish....*Yum*  (Make reservations)...

....and my back hurts looking @ your equipment pics...*L*
@tomic601 ...*L*  Caught the Smashing Pumpkins @ the Peel, and found out 1st hand why their name...🎶👀..."NO, IT'S NOT TOO LOUD! WHY?! OH! BATHROOM OVER THERE!" *L*

....had to go outside to reconnect with the rest of my body....talk about a 'sonic massage'....with a concrete vibrator....;)

Ever been to Sovereign Remedies?  Comfy place to escape...*S*

Sounds like you've mixed with the crowds 'ere. *G*
@birdfan....*G* Please include:
-Certain varieties of motorcycles (not an H/D fan, sorry....)..."Life Begins @ 100"...(when you're young and not afraid of death. ;)...)
-Lotus cars esp.; small, nimble cars in general....
-'Svelte' women in general...(I'm allowed to look, but no touch or drool..)

...there's other items that could fit the list, but become either illegal or distracting....much like my last entry...;)
...been enjoying "Formula One: Drive to Survive" on Netflix....*S*  Been an F1 fan since high school....('69 was The Year to graduate).

Spouse and I used to ride motorcycles back in S.F. in the '80s'; best way to get around, and a snap to park....*G*
@ejr1953 ....*G*  I'm on the 'wrong side of the tracks' from the Biltmore House....*L*  Long story....
'Bout time the daughter gets to put y'all up and 'put up' with you. *L*
Empty the fridge....(put it into coolers)  and go  "But, we were hungry!  Such a long drive, all that energy....what's on TV?  Anything to drink 'round here?..."
She might recognize something about that....;) *L*

@bob540, I own a Bobcat....;)...with attachments...  Not easy to drive inside a house, but I can put things through windows....

And as for cars.....Small can be not only quick, but nimble...and make just as glorious a noise.

Turn up the volume and enjoy. *S*

In short, BMW....perhaps an Audi, but I don’t follow vehicle 'details' all that  much.....*G*

So....when do you go ’non-eco’? ;)
