Pulled out the Christmas music. Started the season with a Trader Joe’s 2018 Vintage Ale and Bing Crosby’s “ I Wish You A Merry Christmas”.  On a personal note, I had another niece ask my advice on a turntable and speakers.  Seems she had a boyfrie...

My niece just married a Jamaican DJ. Thought I would delve into some good reggae with him; turns out he is a fan of Kenny Rogers...so I am in the process of digitizing some Kenny Rogers albums for him.  Please don’t judge me too harshly.

Personal vs. Market Values
Personal taste is just that...personal.  I am one of the estimated 25 percent of the population that cannot taste truffles due to an inability to smell androstenone.  Discovered this in cooking school when the rest of the class was swooning over a...

Boxer12,Thanks.  Been trying to hit the turntable for a few days and found a great stash at a garage sale yesterday so have no excuse to not indulge. Lots of 60s and 70s R&B and funk.  No Icelandic death metal, though.
