Yes Larry - I agree with Ghia. Please do stick around. You bring much to this forum, good stories, good humour and more importantly, decorum which, I believe, a lack of by someone who I thought would now know better, has encouraged you to make this decision. And I do hope you receive the due apology. Good Luck but do return!

Also Larry, I believe you took a comment by that person in the wrong context though quite understandably. Sometimes people type things when they are tired and don't always give thought to how their words are perceived. I might be wrong, but I really believe such was the case. If you'd like to see if we are on the same page and remedy the problem, send me an email with your gripe if you wish. Otherwise, as I said, "Good Luck."

AL,

Kegger would probably be a very good conduit and could probably drive that infamous 16.1 system! lol

MR,

Mr. B got a big kick out of the Brylcreem and bobbysox comment! He is great at indulging most of my eccentricities and whims but has drawn the line with the brylcreem. Besides, for us, retro means the old hippie days of the 70's - think the Doobies circa TCAM. lol.

It's funny as we seem to have a bit of a "reverse WAF" going on. He loves music but is not a gear head. As such, he has "reeled" me in a little on my latest endeavor. Told me, I had gone over the deep end....said he wasn't going to let that happen. I told him, thanks, but I don't need any chivalry.

He did point out some things that are slightly more pressing than getting a second "retro" stereo. Things such as needing windows replaced (old ones aren't energy efficient and are in bad condition), needing bedroom furniture (the bed is on the floor - you didn't get to see those pics), need new tires on the car, etc. He's right. So, I'm going to do this in stages. He was cool with the amp because it could be had relatively inexpensively. The McIntosh amp first paired with the existing B&W's. Then, maybe a Rega Planar 3 turntable at the beginning of next year if the budget allows and then the Spendor speakers whenever the budget allows.

So, the brylcreem and bobbysox will have to wait a little while.

MR et al - thank you for your good wishes, but my leaving had no direct relationship to the comments to which you refer. I tried without luck to send a private message - now that I'm "gone," the site won't let me do that.
So - I just say that I began to feel like a guest at a party where everybody appeared to welcome me, but where I got the feeling that some of the people secretly wished I would go home early.
I bear no grudges - and don't want to make a big deal out of quitting. For several of you, I will miss you greatly. And I'll still be alive at e-mail wryte4u@comcast.net.

Kegger - sigh - no, my friend, nothing you have ever said has caused me anything other than laughter or learning - a pretty good pair of consequences, I'd say. . .
This is rather hard for me - but the forum sort of "settled in" around me, and I began to feel that I was "outside the loop."
There is so much energy and creativity on this forum - but its overall direction is just not the same as my life at the moment.
True, there have been some instances where I was made to feel intimidated and "small," and I believe that is a situation I'd just as soon forget about and move away from that tension. I believe that some people delight in creating chaos, then watching the "fun" as other people fight back. I have encountered this before. Only my "opinion" here, guyz-n-galz.
So Kegger, and all - I think it best that I just leave. Oh, it is NOT that I think that I'm "above" this forum - good grief, y'all have more intelligence and drive than I'll ever have.
But frustration is not "happy time" when you get up near the 70 mark - someday you will know what I mean.
Thus - with respect - goodbye. I may check in with the Discoveries thread occasionally, but it's time to leave the party.
BTW, Kegger - sorry, but even you couldn't replace a good pair of speaker cables! (Grin)
Respectfully, Larry R.

Yes, life is a compromise at times. Why not show Mr B your appreciation for his wonderful economic prowess in the form of a candlelit dinner, some of that nice Peter Lehmann wine and a schmaltzy card with the words "Love Is A Many Spendor Thing" inscibed?

Really, tyres and windows are okay and all, but they aren't much fun! [grin]

MR, Sem and Jan,

What can I say? He's right, the car needs new tires. I try to convince him that I'm sort of being fiscally responsible. For instance, in the past, when it has been time to get new tires, I have instead gotten a new car. It's true. I have never, ever bought a set of new tires. Mr B hasn't been around long enough to understand this. But, I'm willing to get new tires rather than a new car. The way I see it, it is much less expensive to get a McIntosh/Rega Planar/Spendor system and a new set of tires than it is to get a new car.

So far, this logic has not worked. Sorry MR, despite your brilliant wit, the romantic stuff won't work either - I'm quite sure of that.

So, the only thing that may work is the tactic "if mama ain't happy, ain't no one happy."

ghia i think the context of this explains it.

"maybe I should get married, and this would stop? "

I said maybe it would "stop!" not maybe i can continue but someone can clean.

no i figure a wife/gf might set me straight and not stand for what i do.
so maybe the messes won't happen as much. or at least i will be tempted to
take better care of things. so as not to look like such a slob to my
signifacant other!

see it's not so much what the wife/gf would bring to the table
but more how i would change.
if theirs noone for me to change for, then the change is much tougher!

kinda like your bf story he is trying to teach you to be sensable,
which you "admit" in the past you have not been.
so without him you may have done things differently, but because
you value his input it may alter your course of action.

how's that!

Kegger,

Brought this over to Discoveries instead of the Twilight thread.

My internal alarm clock goes off by 7a and, if it fails, the feline clock, smacks my face by 7:15.

Here's my roster:

QB - Dante Culpepper
QB - Tom Brady
RB - LaDanian Tomlinson
RB - Michael Bennett
RB - Tyrone Wheatley
RB - Steven Jackson
RB - TJ Duckett
WR - Marvin Harrison
WR- Isaac Bruce
WR - Peerless Price
WR - Peter Warrick
WR - Jimmy Smith
TE - Alge Crumpler
K - Ryan Longwell
Def - Ravens

My starters are studs as long as they are healthy. I'm concerned about depth at RB. My BF has a strong RB corp and won't trade any of them to me. I'm a little peeved about that.

ghia your team looks very good.

what are the positions for your league? "what starts (ie 1,qb 2,rb) maybe 2 qb's"

how many people are in the league?

what is the point system? do qb's get less points
for touchdowns 4 verse 6?

that would give me enough info to see how well your
team is really balanced.

I'm not saying i'm the ffl guru just want give you my honest oppinion.
but i feel i'm pretty knowllagable at this since i've done it for about
15 years and ran the league that my buddy took over 2 years ago.

hears my first league.

all players are scored relatively even with yardage catagories and
qb's get 5 points for td's.

12 people in the league.

I had pic #9. draft went 1-12 then 12-1 next 2 rounds jumbled around
then goes back to 1-4 all over again.

we play
2 qb's
3 wr's
2 rb's
1 k
1 d

qb payton manning
qb aaron brooks
qb drew brees
wr torry holt
wr jimmy smith

rb willis mcgahee
rb garrison hearst
k jeff reed
k john carney

12 people in the league.

the draft order on this league can get pretty screwy.
you pick #'s out of a hat for every individual round.
and i was not very lucky this year. (5) #11 picks on my draft order.
with the first 3 rounds like this 11,5,11 not a good start.

we play
2 qb's
3 wr's
2 rb's
1 k
1 d
1 te

qb matt hasselback
qb mark brunell
qb kurt warner
rb fred taylor
rb dominic davis
rb jerome bettis
wr lavernious coles
wr dione branch
wr koren robinson
k matt stover
d tampa bay
d detroit
te marcus pollard

this league has few backups so their is quite a bit of player movement.

I feel i did good to above average in every catagory.
not as much room for injuries as league 1.

if i could get lucky and dominic davis along with
maybe kurt warner or mark brunell turning out better
than their projections i'll be allright.

again my sleeper detroit defense.

Holmes, here's a clue. Look at the window pane that is second from the left, second from the top. Very craftily framed by the piano lid and its brace. Does that face look familiar, Holmes? Look at the face of the man in the portrait, are they not the same person? And magically that face disappears in the next photo. Such is the life of the famous Mr. Sherlock Holmes. Close but never quite close enough. Possibly if you could determine the location you might find The Nun. Heh, Mr. Holmes?

Kegger,

Thanks for the welcome back. But you have lost me completely with all this stuff about yardage, sleepers &c. I am off on another trip on Wednesday. I will drop in when I can get internet connection. Also time. Neither of those was so good in Canada, at least for me.

Going way back, MR wrote "I saw Bond briefly in a movie and I can't for the life of me recall what it was". Me, too. I was something I saw recently, too. It could just have been "Die another day" or similar. Maybe "Love Actually". No, that is not similar. A Brit film, anyway. And definitely not "Chicken Run".

Rick wrote " I think the sooner everyone on this planet realizes there is only one race-THE HUMAN RACE-with only different customs and cultures, the better off we'll all be. " I would just like "Amen" to that, and raise a glass to Rick.

Now, the great room mystery.

One who knows: I see no face. Is this a hoax?

I just love those Georgian windows. Sash windows are the best. Wouldn't it be wonderful to live in a house like that.

It is the cheetah, lying on the Steinway in the first photo, but not the second, that has me worried.

Kegger,

Our league has 10 teams with 15 players on each. It's a "head to head" league. We start 1 each qb/rb/wr/te/k/d. We have 3 offensive player options that can be filled with rb/wr/te. Right now, I'm starting 2 rb's and 3 wr's but only because my receiver core is slightly better than the rb core.

In the first round, I drafted 3rd and took Tomlinson. The draft order flipped each time. I got Culpepper with my 2nd pick and Harrison with the 3rd. I then made a blunder by picking DeShaun Foster with the 4th pick. He may turn out to be a good choice but I ended up dropping him to try to get another RB who will be a starter.

ghia with that system.
then I would completely agree with your assessment.

you pretty much have studs at all positions and could use a second
quality running back.

maybe you could try trading Tom Brady for a descent rb then pickup
a qb like tim ratay or mark bruenell or kurt warner
yu know at least some starter that has desent potentiel as hopefully you'll
only need him for 1 week. and with 10 teams at 2
qb's each their should be some
pretty good guys available.

just a thought but i agree another rb and you should be set.

any thought on my teams?

We have Pus_y Galore with all these flamin' cats around the place. It was Plenty O'Toole who first gave me the idea that Ian Fleming was an Old Rogue and no stranger to the double entendre. Mike Myers got the joke, too, but took it too far, imho. Speaking of innuendo, I wish Larry had not taken offence, and would return.

Guys,

When I posted pics of my kittens in the tub, I had thought to make a little joke about pu$$y galore but decided to use a little restraint. Next time I won't be so thoughtful. :-)

MR,

I'm impressed. An Australian knows about American football. If y'all are so inclined, I encourage you to root for the Carolina Panthers. Here's a link to the fight song and the lyrics:

Panther growl

Panthers Old Fight Song (unfortunately, the end is cut off but it's the only wav I could find)

Stand and cheer for the Panthers
Stand and cheer for the team
The pride of both Carolinas
And city of the queen
Carolina!

Stand and cheer for the Panthers
In our grand ol' name
Nothin' could be finer
Than to be in Carolina
For a Panther football game!

From the mountains
To the Ocean
Carolina, Carolina best of 'em all!
From the endzone
To the endzone
Carolina, Carolina carry the ball!
Oh, nothin' could be finer
Than to be in Carolina
For a Panthers football game!

Nothin' could be finer
Than to be in Carolina
For a Panthers football game!
Carolina!

Kegger,

I'm not familiar with your scoring methods. At first glance, I actually liked your second team better. But, the first team looks pretty good too. Of the quarterbacks, I think Manning and Hasselbeck are the best ones you have. I wanted Dominic Davis on my team as my 2nd RB but he got drafted in the 3rd round and I had planned to take him with my 4th pick. The guy who drafted him already turned down a trade offer. I've considered offering up Brady but, most of the teams that have RB's I'd want already have good QB's. I might try to offer him up for Davis again.

sounds like your on the right track ghia.

our scoring systems are basically the same just
change the qb touchdowns from 4 to 5 and 6 respectivly.

and yes i feel fairly good about both drafts.

Ghia - The "boxy things" in the photos are very large and very expensive monoblock tube amps. They appear to be one of the Conrad-Johnson Premier series. Very impressive and enough heat to fill the room. The big CJ Premiers usually used about eight KT88's per amplifier. Think of 16 150 watt light bulbs and then the three power and output transformers per amp adding to the heat. I'm suprised the cat can lay that close.
