Really Boring Stuff Only III: Resurrection

[William Lemmerhirt]

It is the little straight one the doctor said. Partial tear, but since I am functional and managing pain fine, that surgery is optional and is up to me. Because that was the assessment, they did not do the MRI, that is now scheduled for June 17 tentatively. I can decide by Monday whether or not to have the sugery.

Good luck J. Hope you meant drive, and type. Not drive and type.

Hmmm ... that comma is troubling.

The surgery is trouble though. Freakin mattresses are heavy. The last time I moved one my girl and her niece were on the other end which was catching on a doorway so I twisted my end hard to make their side turn past the obstruction. Well the other end of the mattress clocked my niece in the head messing up her neck.

Every time either of them go to help me they get hurt. I think the mattress incident was the last time I accepted any help from either of them.

Good luck healing up without getting cut open.

The knob on my coffee table is loose.

I bought this for 40 bucks at a flea market. It had an ugly brown stain finish. I had sand paper, polyurethane and a friend with an HVLP spray rig.

I hand tightened the knob. Looking forward to the next 20 years.

I just plugged into watching the new Anne Rice's Interview with the Vampire. They mentioned that it was 49 years ago that the first interview was done.

49 years ... F¥€% me but that's a long, long time. I wonder how many years are left and I'm scared that they will go too quickly. I feel like it's practically over. May as well take me now. I'm ready.

Make it quick.

Do you own socks? Where is Greg "foot police" Gable when you need him.

My apologies. I posted that with my phone and it crops the pic so I didn't know ... good thing nothing else was poking out into the picture frame.

My socks, you don't want to know about my socks ...

Or do you?

Hooked up much of the system this weekend. No audio or video out of my Marantz Pre. I did a factory reset, still zilch. It fires up and it triggers the amp that is connected. I can go through all the menus and settings on its screen, but no sound even via analog and no video, including the setup menu. I am going to swap out the HDMI cable just to see if that makes any difference, but I am feeling like something is damaged from the move.

Oh crap. I would think it would have needed to take a good hit for it to break. Did you do the move or hire a firm? Did you shake it to see if there is anything loose?

It does not sound like it, nor does it appear to have any damage. It was packed by me in the original box, but moved by movers. All other gear seems to be OK, including the TV. I have not unpacked the sub yet, the only other item I am really concerned about.

Found my warranty info too, 4 years. It expired July 2025.

I see an 8805A for $2500 on Amazon new or the AV30 for $4k. Both meet my needs. Just spent a LOT on the couch and wasn't expecting to drop another $4k right away.
