| Two-Year-Olds and Turntables... A very none politically correct idea isIt may be your grandchild but it is your offspring's child, hence if they wish to visit and have you be relaxed and enjoy it, it is their responsibility to either pay attention to their child or not stay to l... | |

| New house room size opinions please........ I agree with Jaybo on both counts, but especially on the house. Your house is where you live and listening to music may be a large part of your life but it is not the entire center of it or your wife would not still be with you. | |
