| I've been selling heavier gear for lighter gear Getting out of the recliner is still pretty easy....it's that first 'sit-up' in the a.m.that poses challenges.... From *blink* "Coffee....stat..." to "...oh, no...not again...." *L* | |
| I've been selling heavier gear for lighter gear @musicfan2349 *L* I'm 71, and have a 'cut-off' of 1/3rd of my weight (135ish)....beyond that, a couple of younger emoloyees, hand trucks, dollies, and a Bobcat with forks and a boom if it calls for that....

| Welcome to Hell, here's your 8-Track 8 track was a brief step up for my brother, who started out with a car LP player. As long as the road was smooth (recently re-paved preferable), it almost worked. You could almost see the vinyl being carved out of the grooves... The 'reverb uni... | |
