Merry Christmas to you and Liane! Santa Cheryl gave me a SiriusXM radio receiver for Christmas. Along with an Android tablet, to hook up to my stereo, without the use of my phone. Sirius is now installed on my new tablet, (an app) but not the actual XM radio receiver. I need a cord to hook...

I went shopping at Best Buy, the other day... Looking for something for my son, Travis, for Christmas... I went to the store in Maplewood. We had just bought him a 3-D printer for his birthday. It's a Bambu A1. That store was disappointing... They only had about three spools of PLA... Not...

In Bob's words, "My travels to foreign Countries has revealed that the people who live there are not foreigners, they are friends you haven't yet made." Bob, that is so true in my life. Our Company is large enough, that I've worked with a few foreign, turned US Citizens, and they all have been...

Bob, you never cease to amaze me... (Ohoh, what did Bob do now?). You said something that really struck me as a nice thing to say. Since I'm so computer illiterate on Android side of things, I couldn't "copy and paste" just part of your writings... To comment on. So, I took it in my best...

I should tell you that I owned a 1976 Trans am for most of my life. That was the coolest car I've ever owned. It was painted black, with gold pinstripes. Much like the car in "Smokey and the Bandit". My car was a '76 the one in the movie was a '77. Mine had round headlights, the one in the...

I grew up in Duluth, Minnesota, about a mile away from the lake. On a a rather big farm. I'll call it a farm, lightly... As compared to what Logan is going through, with helping out his family. My Dad's biggest tractor was a John Deere "A".... We used to make hay each year, about a thousand...

Actually, @loganb, I've just started reading through your "Three Times" writings. I've read through some of your stuff in the past, now, I'm really paying attention. I like where you're going. I agree with you getting some woodworking equipment. I like that you have some equipment, and would...

I did see on the news, about the Hill Country and the floods on the Guadalupe River, last summer. It's a shame, of the disaster that happened, but it's the first time that I learned about that part of Texas. I always thought Texas was mostly flat and full of rattlesnakes... (Just kidding, of...

I had other chances to help out in other Cities... One was in California. I really wanted to work in Texas, amongst the other choices...😀

Of course I spelled your name wrong.. my apologies... I was once in Texas, about 20 miles from the border.... We stopped for supper and the waitresses were fighting over my son, Travis. Both waitresses wanted to please him more. My son was a toddler at the time. But what a neat experience...

Cory, I need to tell you that I've been reading your stories, and love them. You remind me of myself, but think you have much more talent than myself and a real "giddy-up" to get things done. I love what you did on your Camero. That life-long car project turned out awesome. I love the red...

Bob, you mentioned Refused, New Noise.. Did it make you and Liane sweat? Have you tried to dance to C & C Music Factory "Gonna Make You Sweat"? Pretty good song. C & C has nothing to do with my title as a programmer, but really like the song.

No problem, @loganb.... Welcome to the group. I've read through some of your stuff, too. I've not been a car guy, like yourself, but do like your writings. I've always fixed my own cars, but never beyond that. I always go oem parts. I have never gone past that. Some of the things that you...

Actually, nowadays, I have a double deck cassette player, capable of recording one from the other... I haven't even plugged it in to see if it works... I have a CD player, that I haven't plugged in, since I took ownership of it... See... After I bought, I had all of my equipment, balancing on...

Bob, that being said about 8-track tapes... I always had playback machines for those tapes. Did they ever offer a machine to record with? Could you buy blank tapes, even? I have no idea. I did more with cassettes and CD/ DVD.

@Squankum, another song I have to CRANK is Time Bomb... Saliva, Peyton Parrish, Judge & Jury....

Bob, my first stereo... Had to have an 8-track player on it. That was an absolute must. It also had cassette, turntable, AM-FM receiver. I wore out my first 8-track tape (ABBA) by falling asleep one night while it was playing.... It sounded pretty weird the next morning when I woke up. But...

@Squankum, you are not forgotten... I can tell that you have a ton of history in music and are willing to learn and research new bands. I can see that you put a ton of effort into your writings. I'm going to hit the links, provided in your above responses.

Actually, @xtremek, there really is a band called.. "Yes" a British group. But that's probably not what you meant. :D Bob, I used to listen to AM radio and remember that it did actually work better at night. The reason given to me at the time (probably incorrect) was that industry was...

Hey Scooter, I did listen to Crossfire ( thanks for the link, I watched the video). And it is a pretty good song. A very familiar song. Just that I haven't heard it in many years; the XM stations that I listen to don't play his songs, nowadays. I'd like to recommend another song to you...
