Cat or Dog, Tubes or Sand?

Geek · 12th September 2009, 08:57 AM

I have this theory.....

Most tubeheads I have met online and IRL seem to be cat people (or more cats than dogs).

Yet most SS enthusiasts I met, have been definately dog people.

Let's begin the definative poll on this!

Cheers!

Solid state and turtles.

I do both ss and hs. Don't like any animal in the house in fact, unless it's served nice and cooked or roasted. But then again that's how I treat most of my parts as well. Where does that leave me?

Jazz

Ps I do like children btw, just afraid to let the magic smoke outa them.

2 dogs
1 cat (it moved in last year and didn’t care about the dogs)
2 horses
And a few hundred goldfish and Koi carps in the garden pond.
No birds at the moment, but I like to keep birds in an aviary.

And it’s only SS at the moment.

Cheers

Well We have a pit bull, a squirell and three tanks of fish, everything at the moment is SS, but we can't afford tubes at the moment.
