"Audiophile" Power Cables: The Greatest Audio Conspiracy Theory of All Time?
@wsrrsw @oldrooney @whitestix You guys are a hoot! Thanks for taking the time to read (the ENTIRE) article and not taking it too seriously. Boiling the water in preparation for oatmeal as we speak (write?). Not saying what else is going in it ... 
"Audiophile" Power Cables: The Greatest Audio Conspiracy Theory of All Time?
@dill  "waytoomanywords" I tried eliminating the words "audiophile", "power", and "cord" from the post. It reduced the number of words significantly, but did loose a little context.

@bruce19  I couldn't have said it better myself.  No, really, I couldn't have.  Well (and briefly) worded.

@mastering92  Noted.  On my "todo" list. Thanks for sharing.

Opinion: Modern country is the worst musical genre of all time
Memorable moment from the Homer & Jethro Live at the Country Club album: (after playing opening song) Homer: "We only know two songs, and always play one of them first. Which one should we do next?" Jethro: "Let’s do the other’n" Genuinely...

@bhagal I conducted a quick poll of my rowdy friends and ex’s that live in Texas and they disagree with you. Oh, yeah, they said to "take your opinion and shove it!"
