Who R U?

A while back Garfish mentioned he lked the idea of getting to know some of us better.As no one has started a thread like this before I will take the plunge.I have been involved in and read many heated exchanges here in AudioGon.I hope no one attacks me for this thread saying "who cares about you,this is audio" Anyway,Im 45 and live in W.N.Y.I have never been married but have a music loving 11 year old daughter who lives with me.I have been a nurse for 20 years.Before that I was a Navy Corpsman for several years.I recently became engaged (first time) to a beautiful 30 year old music loving woman.At my age a 30 year old is a keeper and I have never been happier!! My other interests??Im into vinyl,who has time for anything else??

My name is Win, and I am a nineteen year-old trapped inside a fifty-eight year-old body. I build heavy turntables that I cannot possibly lift, and maybe I'll build one for myself one day. My wife is pretty cool...sometimes. ;)

Well, as I am new around here I might as well go for it and introduce myself. First off I have an issue with HAF *that's husband approval factor* I could never figure out that "WAF" stuff as in our family I am the audio junkie. My husband plays his own music and our home is chock a block with his four guitars, including the dobro, the banjo, the trumpet, the amps, the flute and various and sundry other instruments he plays. Rather than listen which he doesn't give as much a hang about as I do he will reach for his own way to make music happen.

I on the other hand am in constant cajole mode to seek audio listening nirvana. I am usually voted down.

I'm a social worker. I am rebuilding a system after having had to sell my last set up due to an illness my son had. He is FINE now and I am back to square one and have audio equipment lust again much to my better half's consternation.

Nice to meet you all.

P.S. not ALL audio nuts are men! Do you think I will fit in here?

Most certainly! As a matter of fact, not all A'goners are men. You are lucky to have a musical home and, of course, the female's acute hearing...
Most importantly, you have a son who is healthy again. Welcome.

Thank you Gregm!! Yes, I am LUCKY! A very musical household, a kiddo they said would not live and who they told us could not learn foreign languages but, who now is fluent in manderine!! Not just speaking but, writing too!

Thanks, for the warm welcome. I'm enjoying A'gone and dreaming of ALLLL the many ways to spend my money on audio bliss around here!
