Audio Equipment... the word Cool... and Life


Audio equipment, cars, cloths, sunglasses, speech and hair are all associated with the word "Cool" sometimes. All these material things have nothing to do with cool. "Cool" is a "state of mind" and some people have it and some will never, no matter how much money, expensive audio system they have or how hard they try. Some nuclear physicists and librarians are cool because its in their "state of mind" and some people will never no matter how hard they try. You know the type... think about it! EVEN AUDIOPHILES CAN BE COOL

Ghasley, I'm only a 68 year old uneducated ex-Chicago street punk, who grew up in the schoolyard playing ball and drinking beer. I can spot wannabes that will never get there... 35 years in resturant and bar business (Chicago near Cubs Park).
Looks like some people don't understand... I drive a Mazda 3 hatchback and "a bum in the park". I knock-off 7-Elevens to supplement my income... but getting old and can't run as fast so cops are going to catch me.
The Coolest people on the planet are the Astrophysicists! IQs off the chart and all have a great sense of humor. And quite a few hot babes. I could listen to them talk forever.
Cheers
Steve McQueen was cool. So was Paul Newman, Grace Kelly, Kim Novak, Cary Grant, Audrey Hepburn and others from that time.

Nowadays it's really hard to put the cool label on people as there is so much hype that surrounds them, and hype doesn't go with cool. Everything is too immediate, negating the distance necessary to be cool. Off the top of my head someone like Jeff Bridges (the dude) qualifies as cool. I think one would have to look back at this time frame to figure out who qualifies as cool unless you personally know someone who is cool, and then you really wouldn't notice it.

All the best,
