Who R U?

A while back Garfish mentioned he lked the idea of getting to know some of us better.As no one has started a thread like this before I will take the plunge.I have been involved in and read many heated exchanges here in AudioGon.I hope no one attacks me for this thread saying "who cares about you,this is audio" Anyway,Im 45 and live in W.N.Y.I have never been married but have a music loving 11 year old daughter who lives with me.I have been a nurse for 20 years.Before that I was a Navy Corpsman for several years.I recently became engaged (first time) to a beautiful 30 year old music loving woman.At my age a 30 year old is a keeper and I have never been happier!! My other interests??Im into vinyl,who has time for anything else??

Hi Doug, haven't seen you around for a while. Great to see you like LL as well. How is your hotrodded lawn mower?!
Cheers!

Cornfedboy and Detlof, thanks for the warm welcome. At this point I consider myself an old newbie. So I tend to spend more time lurking and generally keep my mouth shut, other than to ask questions. Have learned alot and gotten some good advice. Occasionally offer some advice/opinion when I at least think I know something. Great fun.

You know, the only thing missing from this thread is that most contributors didn't indicate where they live. Too bad, it would be fun for 'goners to get together. Perhaps we should start a new thread "Where R U?"!

Grandpad, the thread you suggest, in fact exists. I myself live overseas, by the beautiful lake of Zurich, in Switzerland, in the heart of Europe. Regards, Detlof

hi detlof,

the hotrodded lawnmower sits in the garage awaiting spring, & greener pastures... ;~)

but, the 24f tempurature didn't stop me from taking the relatively stock pantera to work this a.m.! :>) the msd electronic ignition santa brought it for x-mas means it starts up almost before ya touch the key, even when cold. ah yes, another kind of sweet music, inches away from the back of my head! i don't even know how to turn on the stereo or 6-disc cd-changer it came with, & i've had the car 3 years, now... ;~) mebbe next year, it, too, will be hotrodded, as i have almost all the parts needed for my 475hp motor. it will cost less than a tune-up on those *other* mid-engined italian beasts, too!

regards, doug s., ever the cheapskate...
