peak was probably 22-24. That got crowded.

My anniversary date is December 3rd, will mark my second year and am still enjoying it! Luckily, I'll be eligible for profit haring this last year, missed out in 2020 by two days. Another nice perk we get which makes working for them that much better.

We host 9 adults and 6 kids. Mom does most of the cooking, but I made soup (Italian wedding) and prepped the potatoes for mashed. I’ll also make the gravy once the turkey is done (22lb this year).
The most important thing is the pitcher of cranberry ginger French 75’s for an opening cocktail.

We're going out to a place that dos a nice job on Thanksgiving actually. This will be our third year there. The one time each year I have turkey and all that goes with it.

Happy Thanksgiving and good health to all
Was discharged from the hospital fairly early today (around 1030) and my brother picked me up and brought me home. Lucy that cat had been in a bit of an upset with me gone and my brother coming in to feed her twice a day and now she is trying to figure out how to react to my return but she's coming around.
Some bizarre hospital experiences I can post about later, but for now I just want to have a nap. Giving thanks today, even though I'm in Canada.

Nice to have you back, glad it went well.
Now we just need Mike back and everyone else to be well.

Can you do all of us a favor and crank up the oven a bit. You really should check to see how that bird is doing more often.
I’m just about ready to jump into my seat for the big meal now.
Happy Turkey Day guys.

I knew someone that had the same problem. 5th grade was the worst 3 years of my life.

That sounds like they low balled you.

@ab348, that’s great news. Yes, have a good nap and tell us the rest of the story when you’re up to it.

He should be happy.

How does the record stay on the turntable with that model? Do you use Velcro or what?

There really are turntables that play vertically. Perhaps the most famous is the Bang and Olufsen Beogram 4000:
One of my favorite esoteric turntables was the Transcriptors Hydraulic Reference turntable from the late '60s; it was so futuristic looking that it had a cameo appearance in A Clockwork Orange

I’ve looked at a couple of those B&O TTables. i can refurb the table and tonearm. The cartridges are proprietary and are a tough find. Once you find one, they want crazy money for what amounts to a basic middling moving magnet cartridge.
As a hobby, I’m refurbishing vintage turntables (like the one I posted) and selling them on FB Marketplace. Have refurbed 3 of them so far. Nice hobby and it keeps me in beer money.
@roadburner ….I like that AR turntable. Perfect if you look at nothing but performance.
The ‘70s-‘80s turntables I refurb usually represent the pinnacle of turntable tech before the CD crashed the party.
I agree GG 70s and (early 80s) are the best tables. I run a Technics SL1900. Did some work to the damping on the tone arm years ago and still works great.

It’s been awhile, but I’m sure it is the same thing as mine. The plunger that controls the lowering of the tone arm is all gunked up. I took it all apart, cleaned it up lubed it with something. There is a special oil but I used what I had on hand.

Send it over to @graphicguy. He’s been bragging about how good he is at referbing this stuff, make him prove it.

I just received a letter from Kia stating that I should take my 2019 Kia Soul into the dealer for a software update on the Knock Sensor Detection System. If I do this they will extend the engine warranty to 15years/ 150,000 miles.
I know that Kia has had trouble with their engines in the past so i’d welcome the extended warranty but I’m wondering if there’s any down side to this. I change the full synthetic oil every 5k miles which is probably overkill.

Take it in for warranty extension.

Downside? Can’t imagine what that could be.

I don’t know why you’re even thinking about doing this. Just do it.
As for changing full synthetic oil at 5K miles you’re being waay too conservative. Changing full synthetic even at 8K is being conservative. That being said an oil analysis is the best judge of oil longevity and the protection it provides.

Thanks all for the input. The reason I have an question about this is I have read about Kia owners having problems after this update. Mainly it’s the knock sensor being set too sensitive and cars going into limp mode requiring tows back to the dealer.
As to OCI, Kia sent me a letter last year telling me to change oil at 3750 miles instead of 7500. They never would give a straight answer as to whether they meant conventional or synthetic so I’m being cautious.
All this doesn’t give me a good feeling about Kia engines.

More than happy to help. Send it postage paid and return shipping included. But, I know what @jmonroe1 is shooting for…..a finders fee. AIn’t gonna happen!
Just a guess….but some of the oil they used in those “lift” bars tends to harden. If you can locate the tiny reservoir behind and underneath the bar that dampens the cue lever, see if there’s any “gunk” in there. If so, with a cue tip, clear as much as out as you can. They sell some super expensive dampening oil. But, in reality, it’s just synthetic oil. A few drops of much cheaper Mobile 1 does the same thing.
Nice Turntable, BTW!
Before I even got home, he called me and told me both had already been sold over the phone! Crazy!
Nice gear. Marantz is especially “hot” right now.
Can’t remember if I posted this,
but here’s my set up in my music room…….
