So Kuntstone is a psychopath rather than a sociopath, which is what I thought was more likely. thanks.Quote:

I already said... My Father has property there, I will store it here until I find my own property. I don't want to keep it as his place permanently because it's at least 150 miles from where I want to be most of the time. That would be a bitch 150 miles to his place then 150 miles back to where I want to go. Then 150 miles back to store it. Then 150 miles back the the airportQuote:

Makes sense; if you live in Portland and travel south to RV, as most do, why not store it en route where storage fees are much cheaper than in the city?
Class C RVs tend to dress up more than Class A’s
They also tend to use bigger words.
I don't plan on crossing into Oregon I would be heading toward Canada. It's actually the same distance from my dad's house to both Portland Oregon and Seattle.Quote:

I did a play at Spirit Mountain and spent a bit of time there. I did a lot of fishing in that area and it was terrible. Obviously, it's better near the coast.
I spent a lot of time in Portland Oregon when I was young since my grandparents lived in Longview Washington. It was super nice back then. The last time I went through there it was fairly depressing. Don't get me wrong, Portland Oregon on its worst day is much nicer than Las Vegas on its best day as far as the outdoors goes. I want to hit places like Port Townsend, Port Angeles, the San Juan Islands, Olympic National Park, and Bellingham.
If you have time, take the ferry to Victoria BC if you've never been there before: neat place.
If you go, try having High Tea at the Empress Hotel for a feel of that old British aristocracy.
As for Portland today...A couple years ago my F-250 was stolen and the catalytic converter was removed.
Then it was stolen again...for a joy ride.
Today I woke up only to find that some tweaker punched a hole in the gas tank in order to "fuel up" at my expense.
Fuck this place...too many druggies, homeless and rabid lesbians.
On my to-do list.Quote:

Probably near Leavenworth WA(https://www.google.com/search?newwin...ih=579&dpr=1.5) . It's close enough to get to Seattle, but far enough away from Seattle to enjoy the complete Beauty. The land is super pricey directly in or close to Leavenworth so I'll look further out. I looked into some land and small houses along the way to Leavenworth, and I saw some really good deals and contacted a real estate agent.Quote:

Kew got caught lying about this "shuffler" long ago, only for some reason he's still trying to get more attention out of it even though he knows what a dumbass it makes him look like.
During our last recent RV trip, we spent much of it alongside rivers and creeks about 20 minutes from here https://www.59erdiner.com/index.html
But who knows, there's so much to explore. At some point in the near future, we plan on doing a month-long RV living to test it out. My wife is super excited about all the possibilities as well. Whatever the case, if anything it will motivate us to more frequently fly to Seattle and spend more time in the beautiful outdoors of the Pacific Northwest, where I grew up and most of my family is from.
We found flights for $29 from Vegas to Seattle, obviously, that doesn't cover baggage and the cost of flying the doggy.
PS I see you can get much better deals in Arizona on RVs.
Yes, better used rv prices can be found in Az. not due to snowbird deaths or whatever, but because of the vast numbers of them always being available. Theres nearly 5 million people in the Phx. area, and rv's are everywhere.
You sound like a class C guy because they afford all the comforts of class A's without the hassle of having to drive a bus-like gargantuan. Also, class Aers don't fish much. More importantly, you're at a good age to get into RVing. You need more than reasonable good health to keep up with these rigs, and you need to be able to handle a good bottle of hundred-proof Captain Morgan at the end of day long drives, or issues with the tanks, propane, slide-outs, awnings etc. Then there's the continuous securing everything before hitting the roads and set-ups when you get to your destinations.
Fuel mileage is VERY important to nearly every rver, whether they admit it or not. WARNING!!---For those easily offended when I talk about our sold 2011 Newell, suggest you skip this paragraph.
We never made RV trip decisions based on the price of a gallon of diesel (or gasoline now). But at 5mpg, it passed me off to have to shell out so much money just to have to drive an uncomfortable road vehicle around. Class A's are no fun to drive, especially the longer ones. And if you're gonna tow a car, be ready for multiple challenges.
Bottom line: I think everyone should try it at least once. If a person is able to do it and has no issues with owning a money pit, it's a great new world. But if you're someone looking to get a good resale value later on, forgetaboutit.
The happiest RVers are those who throw their souls into it. No one ever does it all correctly. But if you've properly planned, whether as a full-timer (we did so for 5 years) or as a part-time traveler (as we now are) it can be very enjoyable.
Robert, one reason there are a lot of RV's in AZ is because folks from Pac NW and other states flock there to enjoy RVing; maybe they tire and sell due to disenchantment, or old age, infirmity, or death.Quote:

We should probably throw in some M dog-related stuff since he believes this to be his thread. I can't say who or why, but somebody sent me this via PM. How about you guys guess who it's actually about and wonder why they believe this to be the case?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KJy-YcuXgao&t=71s
Come on Rob, you have to believe there's actually some Merit to what he's saying. It sounds logical. I'm sure there are multiple reasons as to why and I think there's something to what he's saying. I'm actually very interested in this so please don't let your Feud with KJ and his supporters get in the way of the truth and reality just to win an argument. This is a situation that could actually save me thousands of dollars. Not too long ago I almost drove to Arizona to buy one. I decided against it because it was just too much hassle, commitment, and moving parts to accomplish my goal. One of the reasons why I decided to go to Washington, along to help my dad settle into his new place. I was sick and tired of seeing something I really wanted only to have it snapped up before I could even get there. It really sucked putting myself through that. I decided to f*** it I'm going to stop looking from such a far distance and just go with the intention of staying and looking until I find one I can easily go look at and purchase if it's the right situation. Basically, I'm going to Washington just to buy an RV.Quote:

My father, who is currently living in Arizona, he bought a place there a few years back (as predicted, I told him he would absolutely hate it, he in fact, absolutely hates it. He's getting the f*** out of there now, even before his house sells). He knows quite a bit about this stuff. As I mentioned before my dad's a retired master mechanic and import specialist. After the army, he started a job as a diesel mechanic. He's worked for multiple dealerships and owned his own shops.
He actually worked for the state in his later years as a vehicle inspector and moved up to various other jobs that dealt with vehicles. He's been buying, selling, inspecting, and fixing RVs for as long as I can remember. He's always looking for good deals on RVs it's like a hobby of his. I know he'll help me when picking out an RV but my dad is super skeptical when it comes to anyone selling any kind of a vehicle. Said he could only guide me and inspect the RV and see what he sees, but as he rightly pointed out there are never any guarantees it's because he can't sit there and tear down the engine, see all the electrical, and look at all the possibilities on a normal inspection. Should you buy a brand new one and it could go to s***.
Also echoed what MR. V was saying About AZ RV's even before we had this discussion here.
So I was betting to the limit and killing them even when I was barely of legal gambling age, so what? Here, you're now an older guy and your whole life you still haven't had reason to play to the limit at any table game because you can't figure out how to win at those levels, you're still putzing around with the low end at Ellis Island.Quote:

MrV gave an incomplete assessment of why so many rigs sell in Az. I've been a resident here in one way or another for around 40 years and an RV owner for 12 , so while V and I are stating our points a bit differently, do you trust pothead-pontification--or actual knowledge & experience? We're not that far apart on this anyway.
Whether owners become disenchanted with the RV life, whether they tire or die or whatever he's saying---locals are locals. Snowbirds are locals....I'm actually a snowbird now. Most "visitors" dont leave their RV's behind when its time to sell them. A great portion of the population over here is from somewhere else, and as expected, they have ruined the Phx. area. And they've turned a great many RV parks into being mainly trailer parks, with their trashy wooden patios, their collections of junk stored around and under their RV's, and their incessantly annoying need to plant grass in this beautiful desert just so it can "feel like being home".
I'm sure your dad mentioned this: ALL RV's, with the exception of the Prevosts, the Newells, and a few of the Airstreams, are constructed of the cheapest materials available. Quality Control is overall seriously lacking within the industry. So when buying, it's always better to take the time looking for a PREVIOUSLY OWNED one that makes you the least unsure. Let some other guy go thru the warranty headaches etc. getting all the kinks out of it. And make no mistake--bringing in an RV of any kind for service us a major hassle, especially if you're living in it.
You're probably also aware: RV's aren't investments like a home is--they're disposable income drainers. If you like spending money, you'll love RV's. We only use ours in the summer these days. But we store it at an indoor facility in Carson City, and it ain't free.
Nice attempt to split hairs there, Robert ... saykng snow birds become "locals" once they park an RV in AZ.
*golf clap*
I stand by my earlier comment.
BTW, I know for a fact that people from the Pac NW do go to AZ to get good deals on RV's: my son just so happens to "be in the RV business" and they've gone to auctions in AZ to purchase RV's for resale at a good profit in Oregon.
But hey, don't let reality knock you off the rock you sit on at night, roasting S'Mores around the Sterno camp fire ...
I'm pretty sure my dad doesn't know much about Newell's other than by name and reputation. He keeps trying to get me to buy an older Toyota/ or Datsun that's super good on gas mileage lasts a long time and is easily driven.Quote:

I'll take one issue at a time so I don't have a super huge wall of text.
You're really stuck on this Ellis Island thing, aren't you? I haven't played at Ellis Island in a very long time. The last time I was actually in Ellis Island was one someone from the form invited me there to talk business. There are quite a few people on these forums who love Ellis Island.
I don't give a s*** what casino I'm in, as long as there's an advantage to be had. Most Advantage Players I know of have the same attitude. Ellis Island's money spends the same as the Wynn's does.
I played at worse places than Ellis Island including some s*** whole places in Northtown. Speaking of s*** hole places I invited Mike to play a promotion at the Longhorn where he gave me a percentage of his action. There were quite a few Forum members and tons of other Advantage Players there. I estimate around 50. There was even some big wig-slot YouTubers playing there. Mike asked for permission to write about it and you can view it over on Wizard of Vegas if you would like.
Back to Ellis Island. I have made tens of thousands of dollars from Ellis Island. They've actually had some pretty good promotions throughout the years.
Some of the blackjack players can appreciate this one. They had an ad in the newspaper with a match play coupon that you could use to bet the table maximum. their table Max was $500 at the time. I got a bunch of Sunday papers. I'm sure I even stopped at the library and snagged the coupon out of their newspaper.
I got the library idea because there have been a few times when I missed an ad in the newspaper, and couldn't find any more newspapers. I really wanted the coupons because they were worth quite a bit of money and the only thing I could think of was to go to the libraries and get the ones from there. There have been coupons where you could bet up to 5k on the match play.
I don't know how many coupons I got off at Ellis Island before they shut that down, but that's basically free money to me, and I'm not passing it up no matter where it's at. I dig that type of shit. I could have billions of dollars and I'd probably still go play $100 match plays assuming it wasn't too inconvenient.

It's really a moot point if it was 18, 19 or 20.
I was barely old enough to gamble myself at that time, he was a friend, he was interested, he needed some money and wanted to work, so I offered the opportunity.
No doubt, it kept him from doing some stupid much worse shit to make some money. I knew what a couple of his other sketchy acquaintances did to make money and he was considering those options.
Oh, I've also taken quite a few chicks to gamble with me who were not 21 as well I can think of 10 off the top of my head. What is it that they say, I was young dumb, and full of cum? Hell, I still don't think it was dumb. Knowing what I know now, and if I could go back to age 22, or 23 I do nothing but hire 18 and 19-year-old girls to work for me, and I would have hired a lot more for multiple reasons. In my experience, they tend to be more open honest, and less jaded about things.
There's a low chance of them turning into your competition, and if they did you could easily take them out of the game since they're not even 21. Back then on a lot of that stuff one of the biggest problems teaching someone how to do it and having them work for you, they could easily say f*** you, and go on their own and become direct competitors cutting your hourly down significantly. It happened to others all the time.
I had this Bombshell 18-year-old blue-eyed blonde girlfriend named Angel, 5'7 with 36 Double D's. She was a Sonic CarHop with roller skates and all when I first met her. I have no clue how she roller-skated with those big tits.
My wife even knows who she is, they had met at one time or another.
Angel wanted to vulture slots while I played other stuff that she couldn't for obvious reasons.
I went with her so she could get some fake ID. At that time long before 9/11, there was a sketchy shopping center in Northtown, I believe it was right on Bonanza, perhaps on Stewart and Bonanza.
If you slowly drove around the parking lot three times and proceeded to park, that signaled some dude on a bike to approach you. He would then approach your car, give the good old head nod what's up, and ask what he needed. If you didn't already have a usable photo he directed you where to go to get one. You paid him a hundred bucks and he came back in no time with a fake ID. Knowing what I know now, they were actually kind of crappy but they worked most of the time.
She did pretty well Vulturing for someone who was 18. Quadrupled her Sonic income. She even took one of her girlfriends with her frequently.
She never got busted for the fake ID. At some point during our time together her sister turned 21 and she started using her sister's ID.
However, there was A double Royal promotion at the Barbary Coast. They Had some good machines, even a $5 9/6 multi-play, but mostly dollar multiplay $1 denominations. I'm not even going to think about the hph and math, it was worth hundreds of dollars per hour.
Anyways, we needed to slow play and lock the machines up many hours prior to the promotion or there would be zero chance you would get a seat. You don't want to be doing that yourself if possible since you really need to sleep as long as possible up until about an hour before the promotion starts so you can get as many quality hours in as possible. You might be there for 24-plus hours straight.
She heard me making calls and talking to a few friends offering to pay them to lock up the machines for me.
When she heard how much we were paying, she was like... "why don't you let me do that?" I was like yeah, good point, why not? My next-door neighbor was actually a slot tech and he was game(I actually bought a 70's 280Z from him). Had a few others helping as well.
I think it was fairly close to promotion time when everyone who was holding machines got surrounded by management/ Security and 86ed. I think a hustler who wanted the machines narced them out. The Casino never bothered anyone else after that, and we were able to play the promotion unmolested for the duration.
Angel was furious at the casino for trespassing her. "how can they do that, I was playing, and I wasn't doing anything wrong?" And I said, to be fair, you're not even 21. And then she replied, yeah but, they don't know that.
If you're going to write these 1000 word responses such as you have been tossing out there lately and expect anyone to read them you have to be willing to read anything written in response to your posts.

What can I do to redeem myself so that the handful of strangers on this forum will like and respect me?
Hey, I know...I'll regale the board with tales just like the two Alpha Males, Robert and Dawg do.
Let's start ...
"I just returned from playing baccarat at Monaco; we took the Gulfstream because I'd loaned the 737 to my good buddy John Travolta.
While my entourage and body guards chilled, I used my Advanced ESP to not only "read" the undealt cards but to predispositon them in my favor.
I won 85 hands in a row: play stopped because I'd won all their chips.
Cashed them in and then went country shopping: I decided to buy Peru and corner the cocaine market."
---to be continued?
Not a please-and-thank-you bunch. In fact, I, just, did a forum search of the words, please, and thank you. Guess what. No matches.Quote:

Alas. it seems I have not yet garnered the respect that I deserve due to my wealth and myriad accomplishments.
Time to tell the handful of viewers about my recent activities (yes, you can drool, I don't mind).
The Mormons who maintain genealogy records met me on my palatial super yacht in order to inform me that according to their records I am the direct descendent of both Jesus and Mohammed: no surprise, I'd always suspected that.
I had Taylor Swift join me on a jaunt to the Bahamas: nice kid, good set of pipes.
With her as arm candy I played baccarat in the private salon at Atlantis, using both advanced ESP and good old fashioned bribery to clean them out (no dealer can resist a shit-load of cash); now I own the joint: my plan is to rededicate it to housing lepers.
We flew to NYC: I met my good buddy Donald Trump outside the courtroom; he agreed to sign over all of Trump, Inc. to me rather than let the DA get her claws on it; I don't really want it, but hey, what are friends for?
I met with one of my stock brokers and he was amazed at how well I've done in the market: he'd never yet met a trillionaire.

Not sure what the term "railing" means, but I certainly admire and respect her, although I haven't bought any of her music.
Ten years? At your age twenty years younger should be the minimum if not pushing thirty.Quote:

They don't comp bullshit artists based solely on bullshit: you gotta lose your ass to have them kiss it: hell man, you should know that by now.

The only reason there's all this animosity about someone posting about winning or what they have--by MrV, kew, and others--is, as I've seen for years about my successes, because these people simply don't like it. And why is that? Because they don't have equivalent resources to begin to "measure up"....and they lose at gambling.
Remember, true winning players absolutely and unequivocally LOVE to read and hear about the gambling successes of others, regardless what path is taken to attain the winning. Losing players disdain winning players' stories, and they will always come up with a dozen reasons trying to explain how it's just not possible...while sprinkling in some personal attacks for good measure.
The Undeniable Truth is, non-AP/partial AP/full-on AP winning AND losing, over time, is all possible. While some scenarios are more PROBABLE outcomes than others, they all can and do occur.
Unless we're able to walk in someone else's shoes 24/7, no one will ever know how someone else does. Some will claim that "patterns of postings and/or forum behavior" allows some type of "educated" or "informed" opinion. But these people, more often than not, end up being the victims of their own jealous arrogance, as some of those posters are masters of controlling the discussions from the start.
Since this is supposed to be a GAMBLING forum, just enjoy the stories, the pictures, and your accompanying dreaming. Why stir the acids in your stomachs when whatever happens to someone else has zero affect on your life?
And Coach: 110% agree with and enjoy how you so thoroughly put jbjb firmly into his place.

Since you are not a legitimate Advantage Player and don't truly understand the concept of +EV and high percentages, for some reason you think one's denomination /Betting level is the most relevant.Quote:

Many Advantage Player's actually consider playing lower denomination machines at high earn high % the best their is. It's like buying a rare collectable for a $1.00 knowing it's worth many thousands. That's fun and interesting to hear about.. Someone buying something worth 50k knows it's worth 52k isn't that interesting.
You will rarely here a guy telling a story/bragging about playing a $100+ milti coin machine making $200 an hour. However, if a guy comes up with a penny machine Advantage Play while playing .25-$1 a hand yielding $200 an hour (been there, done that);you'll probably hear about it multiple times for a long while. That's something interesting and even book-worthy.

Mission146, how do you like David Bowie? His music was definitely groundbreaking. Definitely one of my favorite artists.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kNEftfN0gN8
TVC15 about one night Iggy Pop dropped acid and thought his girlfriend had been eaten engulfed by the television set.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2y9ttNYwzg0
I wouldn't call myself a David Bowie fan, per se, but I haven't heard anything of his that I dislike. I could probably become a fan of his pretty easily; I just never happened to get any of his albums when I was younger.
Oh, and on page 183/184 of the MDawg adventures thread, for day-183/184 as the midpoint of leap years, at the stroke of midnight heading into 2 July. And, spot #3661 = [√(1000000*9) + 661] ---> 1961.Quote:
"When we were on the tour bus in 1996 or 1997, David said, ‘Somewhere in the late 70s I met this psychic, who told me I was gonna die around the age of 69 or 70,’ and he said this with total certainty. It didn’t sound like the ramblings of one of these crazy people: it was something which he absolutely didn’t doubt at all. I never told anyone about it, but it never left my mind," wrote Garson.
Quote:
The music legend was 69. The news was released late Sunday on his official Facebook page. A statement to fans read: "Jan. 10, 2016 – David Bowie died peacefully today surrounded by his family after a courageous 18-month battle with cancer."
10 Jan., 2016 ---> 11 in 2061
Three of my favorite bands were The Beatles, The Rolling Stones and David Bowie. The Beatles and the Stones pre-dated me, although I still liked them and still do like them.
Bowie pre-dated me too, although he kept making new music. I didn't listen much to anything that came after Let's Dance though, and actually Let's Dance was a little poppy I liked Scary Monsters more.
I noticed that two '80s bands played at The Palms, Vegas this weekend, The Psychedelic Furs and Squeeze. The Furs are fairly well known due to their hit from Pretty in Pink, also their songs like Love My Way, All That Money Wants, and President Gas.
Squeeze is probably less known but they have some great songs including,

and

You wish you had a motor boat
To pose around the harbor bar
And when the sun goes off to bed
You hook it up behind the car
But behind the chalet
My holiday's complete
And I feel like William Tell
Maid Marian on her tiptoed feet
Pulling mussels from a shell
Pulling mussels from a shell
"Tempted [by the fruit of another]" is another Squeeze song.
I have and still listen to two Bowie LP's from his early days, "The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust" and "Space Oddity."
Never much cared for his work after that time.
I grew up on rock but my tastes opened up with the advent of new forms, e.g. disco, punk, and of course New Wave.
The Cure and New Order helped me veer more toward electronic music which has been my preferred genre for decades now, from the early days of house and trance to the current days of eclectic choices.
Recently I've been listening mainly to CD's and LP's from three current artists: Rufus du Sol, Bob Moses and Fred Again.
Music is an integral part of my life.
From "Pulling Muscles from a Shell"
Squinting faces at the sky
A Harold Robbins paperback
Surfers drop their [waxed not oiled] boards and dry
And everybody wants a hat
I like Ziggy [to be played at maximum volume] more than Space Oddity (which SO was a single not album), but Bowie had many fabulous albums after those two.Quote:

As far as New Order, yes, great, I like some Joy Division too, such as Love Will Tear Us Apart. New Division is one of the only (maybe the only) band to have recovered from the death of its lead singer (suicide of Ian Curtis).

I don't think that I've, ever, bought a record. A few cassettes from the bargain shops, for 99 cents, many years ago. The only music I listen to now is the occasional stuff I post up here. I guess, like spending a couple of hours to watch a movie, it's a fairly solitary activity, as if trapped (by peers?), or damned if you do, damned if you don't.Quote:
Music and drugs both create pleasure by acting on the brain's opioid system. Singing can release endorphins, which many drugs do as well. Many drugs, like prescriptions, can dull pain. Music has also been shown to provide a sense of relief in stressful or painful situations like surgeries.
But, hearing some of the above, I have to add that I won't feel so bad, anymore, when turning on the radio to hear today's indecipherable garbage. That stuff existed in the past, too. Ha.
Hey dawg, all bullshitting and flaming aside, it seems we both share a common interest in similar types of music.
I can't recall if I asked you specifically before, but as a "man of means" you should be in a position to own some absolutely killer stereo equipment.
Me, I've been an audiophile and owner of some serious high end equipment for many years.
Good music is one thing, but when heard through really good gear it can go to the next level and approach being sublime.
Well, that first line just about says it all.

P.S. Interesting, though, how it always seems that the first line, of a piece of writing, is tentative, but, the last, with the bullshit. Ha.
I never got a pure class A system like I believe you have, V. At our main home, the system has NAD “Monitor Series” amps that are what are referred to as Class AB. 150 watts RMS per channel.
My system itself is the Sony “ES” line from the 1990s including a 5 CD rotating CD player and a mini disc player / recorder (never actually used the mini disc player, stopped using the FM/AM tuner years ago).
Also of course a turntable with a moving coil cartridge.
And a couple of very high end Sony headphones.
My speakers are the Dahlquist DQ-10s with the Dahlquist DQ-1W subwoofers. I had someone modify the Dahlquists a little to make them sound even better. I have that special braided speaker wire to keep the tweeter fuses from blowing out when playing certain songs at higher volumes.
When it comes to speakers, the highest end ones I ever heard came from some company in Arizona I believe it was, and looked like the interior walls of Space Mountain at Disneyland with the rows of metal perforations, and were the size of big windows. When those things played, you could reach out and touch each instrument in the room in its distinct location in the orchestra. But those things were just too big, and the Dahlquists are classic old school speakers that get close to, but definitely not quite, that level of synesthesia.
HOWEVER, my wife who is of the youngest generation when she noticed that I don’t even use my stereo much anymore, got some wireless speaker system all Bowers and Wilkins set up in several rooms it’s nice but it’s not as good obviously as my system or the one you’ve described. I actually didn’t even know she bought it packages arrive at our homes almost daily and as you know it’s hard to tell a wife to stop spending. I mean I do but she won’t stop. She might cut back temporarily and really my objection to her spending is not necessarily over the dollar amount but over the duplication of that she tends to buy things I don’t think she needs.
https://i.imgur.com/qvVPm7tl.jpg
Still the things she buys in the scheme of things aren’t much at all and she leaves the high end purchases such as jewelry, watches to me she won’t order a $45,000 bracelet or buy a mink coat on her own, etc. whatever, she knows I won’t pay full retail or anywhere close for anything I buy. Still, all those packages add up and her sound system arrived in quite a number of those boxes and was set up before I had time to object to that we already have a stereo system.
I never did get around to making my stereo work with an iPhone so therein lies the issue for her. But again - you and I know that digital music downloaded or played straight off whatever app can’t compare to the fidelity of a CD or vinyl record.
This is one of the newer Bowie songs (2013), that I actually like a lot.
Let me know what you think. You have to listen to it past the 2 minute mark to appreciate it.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dOy7vPwEtCw
Bowie and his manager made the music video at home with no real production at a cost of $12.99
https://www.davidbowie.com/2013/2013...video-here-now

Of course, I like classic songs too.
Such as both the original (Roger Miller) and cover of this song.

V, "A Forest" comes off the Seventeen Seconds album. I hate to encourage that sort of thing, but if you fire up one of your biggest joints or bowls or however you do that stuff, and put on that entire album, it should make you a believer.Quote:

MrV and Mdawg are having a nice discussion here. But I can't help but notice that Mdawg needs to inject his wealth or perception of his wealth into the discussion as he always does, by mentioning high end this or high and that, and dollar amounts. Mdawg if you really are as wealthy as you want everyone to think, you are very insecure. You just are.
Even in mentioning you wife, "of the youngest generation", which I guess would make her 6 :D. I am sure Mdawg meant to say younger, not youngest, but even that is an attempt to hold his wife out as a trophy wife, as he has done before when saying things like she could be a model.
Come on dude, what is wrong with you?
I guess that you missed that post of V's with Daffy Duck or whatever jumping into a pot of gold and gems. Or several posts about V's stereo components. Rich people are funny, get themselves in odd spots. I know one now who's ninety something. The older he gets, the more he tries to squeeze a buck out of someone. Piss on him. Ha.
I'm not rich: I am "comfortable."
KJ, I don't fault Dawg for mentioning the term "high end" as it is the correct way to describe the audiophile hobby.
We strive to achieve the best sound possible from our stereos, to experience the "high end" of sound.
The term has been in use for many decades now.
Most of the high end gear I own has been purchased used: no disgrace in that.
It does take quite awhile though to learn the ins and outs of the hobby, to know which brands are good, and what to look for.
Sure, some guys spend insane money on stereos but that is not always a guarantee of great sound; but a properly sorted out high end stereo will demonstrably trounce a mid-fi system from Bose and other mainstream, well-known makers.
Dawg, Sony makes some good high end gear, and the Dahlquist speakers have a good rep (never heard them).
Here's a taste...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XJJy6VJvSCk
I'm not as extreme as the guy who had a special utility pole installed: I did however have an electrician run completely separate circuits / feeds, including grounds, to the listening room, the home theater, and the master bedroom to maximize sound quality; I pair this improvement with stand alone power conditioners for the electronics, to filter the electricity.
No regrets at all.
I encourage all of you who enjoy music to investigate "the high end" on your own terms; for me it started in college and over the years I gradually improved to the point that "I am there."
Sounds like you are jealous from having to deal with broken down sugar daddies on their last leg.:DQuote:
