The Pass Pub: The High-End Off Topic Thread

Stranger became great admirer of Tenzo Gyatso, after reading Heinrich Harrer book at age 18. Later did Tai Chi, for healthy.

Many bad folks that stranger-man got in touch with, or fight with, now long dead.
Stranger maybe Smarter, and live happy.

I knew that there must be some logical reason - why you are owning Thorens

:devily:

Well - not all of us can find former EMT British tank parts converted to TT. Then there iz the cost of hiring a forklift operator to move that monster around when SWMBO wants to rearrange the furniture and put the speakers up against the walls.....:rolleyes:

I like Thorens - nice and simple TT's - slap on a decent tonearm and you should be most of the way there..

Only strong green tea with a dash of milk, please.

Smart-Stranger man does medical degree, works in hospital, and finds out what the exact angle is to hit nose bone that janks it through the os ethmoidale right up in head.

Dont make me come over there and give you a hug. Some spiked green Tea may go better, but having parent/s with that particular demon generally turns you into one or makes you hate the stuff.

In my '20s, I shacked with a strong religious vegetarian partner, who spent a lot of her spare time on community voluntary work.
At a center for (ex-)convicts, run by a pastor/reverend, funded by the protestant reformed church.

She had briefly worked as a nanny for a heavyweight senator of the conservative party here.
Senator mom shagged the tennis teacher, their kids ranged from alcoholic, drug abuser, die-hard lesbian, troublemaker, to psychiatric level.
Sorry, the senator couple only had 5 children.

My current partner is the daughter of a former customs government official, who topped highest paycheck rank before retirement.
Her oldest sister blew millions at the stock exchange, together with her "communication" expert hubby, bloke even got hired by the government as an "advisor" at one stage in his career.
Oldest brother is ex-federal reserve hot-shot, pro-alcoholic for +30 years, married to a bipolar disorder nut, guy wound up at intensive care 3 times so far.
Youngest sister is a full-blown personality disorder nut, what I refer to as a pee-stain.

I have the greatest respect for all animals, and still able to relate & communicate to people of any age, sexual orientation, social class, color and/or culture.
I consider myself among the friendliest, most open-minded of folks, always willing to help others, without personal gain in mind.
But without showing the pretty parts only, presenting myself different, not even on the web.
It's only the latter that makes me unusual.

Condemnation without (personal) Examination is Prejudice.
