I like those cattle. There were some in pasture just north of here for years. They are gone. They had more of a red color than the one in the picture.

I am not an audiophile. I do have some superb speakers and a 12" subwoofer that is not hooked up. Have an upscale Sony receiver. When I play cds I use a DVD player.
My hearing may not be the best but I cannot bear carpy sound systems. Could not stand the Amazon Echo gizmos because the sound is lousy. Got a pair of Sonus that do the job of the Echos better.
I got out of the practice of listening to music while living with Don. He had an uncanny talent for walking in and taking over during the most crucial part of any piece of music.
I do subscribe to the Berlin Philharmoniker, but have not listened to much of their music recently.

@DougG That is a character I much admire

Have a gas log fireplace made to act as auxiliary heat. I began flipping it on in the mornings for a while weeks ago. We finally got an inch of snow last week. That brought in enough cold for the heat to kick on. We no longer get the cold days in late June or August, but I never touch the thermostat. If it gets cold in the night the heat may kick on.
Had the old heat/water heater system replaced in September. It had started to need too many repairs.

@jon-nyc I am going to steal that quote. Thanks

@RealPlayer OUCH! Sorry you are in pain. Hope you get that resolved soon.

Coconut Crabs are a delicacy. They missed a great opportunity.

@AndyD / It certainly is.

That turntable was Elon's.

I expect the fight to begin November 4.

The podiatrist that comes to the next town has been well liked. Some would go to see him to look at him. He was quite attractive. When he was close enough to be working on your feet it was easy to see that he was very good with makeup.
He gave me a hard sell on some orthotics that I tossed after two days. It was an out of pocket expense. I tossed them within two days. They were destroying my knees
Also, the makeup was gone. He looked rather ordinary.
Wonder what he got caught doing?

Canyon Road in Santa Fe was loaded with great art galleries at one time. Was there maybe 10 years ago. A gallery that was pushing art by a young girl who was doing bland copies of Picasso's style. They were using a hard sell.
Much of what was there is gone. I recall being wary of my wallet because I would see things I wanted. There are two good ones left from what I recall.
I now go to Tubac, Az. when I want to look at art. It is near Tucson and is good for lunch and a look around.

Have never heard the hissing. With my hearing, I don't hear a lot of things. Many complications come from reading the directions. I am rarely troubled by that.
I quit coffee. Discovered roasted barley. No caffeine.
Will be trying roasted barley in the aeropress when I get to Tucson next month. I put it in the expresso machine now. It is not coffee, but I like it.

Good. Thanks. Will look for the new stuff.

Clowns are supposed to be funny. The country is in a sad state.

A great find for you. Is there a pedal to pump?

I do full squats. The squats relieve the pain in the knee that has had meniscus surgery.
One reason I have a dog is dogs require walking. I also do stretches for that knee. Have a recumbent trike I have not been riding much since starting prednisolone following eye surgery.

In the event you need to know what is really happening
