    Heck, none of my computers even have built-in optical drives now! (& I don't even bother ripping blu rays anymore now that they come with download codes. Must be a year since I bought an audio CD even!)

    I have my lifetime collection of classical music CDs and still keep adding to it as I find (and can afford) pieces I like.  I've ripped all of them to a digital library and have copied many of them to a single 128GB thumbdrive plugged into my smart TV but it's my CDs that I treasure.  Someday my heirs will take them all to the dump, and toss my computers & thumbdrives because of their pitifully tiny capacity and their lack of interest in my music.  I don't think I could even interest a library or radio station in them.  Sigh. sad

     

    ..I have several large cases of Classical LPs in climate controlled storage, a good number of them from the 1950s and 60s which still sound clean..

    About 15 years ago I sent my boxes of LPs in with my household stuff to auction.  All my Stereo gear too. sad  The LP that I miss the most is my "Sgt. Peppers" crying

    No, Dalek.  The animated washing machines with toilet plunger rayguns are just the personal transport vehicles in which the Daleks live. indecision  They're much more advanced versions of the PTVs (Personal Transport Vehicles) that ancient decrepit people like me rent at amusement parks like Universal Studios or Disney World. surprise  Actually I quite like our primitive versions.  They have beeping horns and sun shades and are easily parked in the conveniently placed parking areas near each attraction.  I make sure I bring my cane so I can hobble through the attraction lines.  And if I've paid extra for my ticket or play the sympathy card properly I can get a shortcut through the line.  Very nice!  Of course the cane also comes in handy for waving around menacingly in crowded areas and for intimidating little children attempting to run into me or step on my feet or just because I'm feeling grumpy. devil  For me, a couple of days at a good amusement park is much more enjoyable than co-mingling with thousands of fellow people of the ancient persuasion at sea on a floating hotel the size of Rhode Island, just waiting to get some disease from the contaminated airvents while bound for some remote foreign climate no better than Orlando.  (Too many other cane wielders.  Too much competition for sympathy! no)

    Getting a bit of sun here but not quite enough to sit in and feel halfway back to normal yet, maybe tomorrow the north wind will start to blow again :)
