Ordered the Fry & Laurie box from Amazon.

Candy, candy, candy, candles, tea, tea, tea.

Lots of candy for StMartens day. Don't know how many kids will be at my doorstep. Could be six, could be over sixty. Differs every year.

I know some people get over a hundred kids, so I did probably buy too much, but, better safe than sorry. Was my favourite feast as a kid, want it to be nice for kids now too.
I can do upside down chocolate moo things!

Yeah. And it's very easy to do. You just got to follow a few simple tips from the experts and follow the instructions on the screen.

It amazes me how computers confuse the general population when they have never been simpler to work with!

Yeah I am pretty shit at computers . :thumbdn: im just not that interested. I cant fix shit.

problem was IE was corrupted and I couldnt view anything with a graphic program, includiing the anti-virus program. I didnt know that. I had just given up, and i wanted to check my email. I needed to check it to see what I was doing that night, so I just gave in and bought it.

that seems like an oxymoron to me.  If the computer isn't working how can you access the internet?  Please,don't bother explaining to me.  I know it can be done, I'm just not up to it yet.

Sixteen ten inch drivers from Parts Express. These are a type of design that works well in an open back style of baffle. 


... along with two hundred, two inch tweeters (I expect to find some that are not up to snuff ) that "electronically" should mate well with the tens. I plan to build an Open Back, Linear Array Speaker System for a friend (a kind of inverse Di'Apollito design that I have had success with, with the bass drivers singled in the center and the treble drivers doubled along the outside - eight, ten inch drivers is equal in linear measurement to forty, two inch drivers - forty on either side of the eighty inch line of bass drivers) who has never heard Open Back speaker systems, nor Linearly Arrayed speaker systems. I will create a Pole of Power, then show him what TWO TUBE WATTS can do across such an emense radiating area at realistic listening distances, such as his  basement party room.

The tens will face directly into the "sweetspot,"  with the two planes of tweets facing a negative nineteen degrees from the plane of the tens.  I have done something similar with fifteens several times, once with twelves, but not yet with tens.

Tens in open air generally prove to be highly dynamic and extremely responsive. It will be fun to use an array of them taller than I stand.

I bought some groceries and a bathroom scale. I weigh around 275 lbs, I am only 6 feet 2... this cannot be good, I used to weigh around 225-230 lbs several months ago. :grrr:

I bought 3 hardcover books (75 cents each), 8 paperback books (38 cents each) and 6 DVDs ($1.88 each).  I love, love, love senior discount.
