The strategic arrangement of the sub-woofer and the woofer (currently switched off) for best sound.

Nice work. An open baffle, two-way design with a compact woofer and omni-directional tweeter - the domestic version of a pro-sound flying monitor.
Very true. Cabinetry is impressive too, especially the exotic corrugated veneer. Difficult to source in these parts.
Cute, until they have made a mess of your food supplies.these guys are cute, but they can chew through all the wires connecting your computer to peripherals
Awfull mess puncturing bags.
After all, the familiar "simplified" clocks that we normally use do get boring sometimes.
One of my sons gave me a sundial for Christmas.
He seems to have forgotten that I live in Scotland!

There's two catholic priests ( it helps if you read the following in an Irish accent ), now these two priests have known each other since bible school and even though they gone their separate ways they like to meet up once a year to keep in touch. Now a lot can happen in a year, and rumours and gossip abound in the priesthood. Father Jack has heard that his old mate, father Chris has been a bit " sticky fingered ", and a few things have gone missing from his local church. In the mean time, father Chris has heard that father Jack has got a new house maid, and had inappropriate relations, many, many times.
So it comes to the time when they meet up, father Chris comes over to stay the night, but first, after his journey they have a meal together. As they're sat at the table father Jack's house maid comes in with the soup. She puts the bowls on the table, uses a ladle to dish out some soup from a big pot and goes back to the kitchen. Father Jack notices Chris's expression , " I know, I know the rumours about me and my house maid, I'm no fool, but I haven't laid a finger upon her, I swear", says father Jack, " by the way, you see this ladle, solid gold it is, very valuable, but the old one broke so we just use this until we can find another".
After they have finished the soup the house maid returns, takes away the soup bowls and lays down the main course, leaving the gold ladle for the gravy. Again Chris looks at the house maid, a rye expression on his face, again father father Jack protests, " Arge, she's a fine lass, I'll agree, but I'm an honourable man, ( father Chris try's to stifle a laugh.. ) I'm a strong man and I can resist temptation, now look at this ladle, worth a bob or two, I'd imagine, seems a shame to use it".
After they finish the main, the house maid returns with ice-cream and jelly, leaving the ladle again, in case they want a second helping. Yet again father Jack protests his innocence, and remarks " this ladle, got some weight to it, worth to much to leave around, perhaps I'll lock it up in the church tomorrow ".
The meal ends and they retire to more comfortable seating, to talk, gossip and reminisce about old times.
A few weeks later father Chris receives a letter from his old mate saying, now I'm not saying you have took the ladle, but then I'm not saying that you haven't, but let's just say if it's returned I'll say no more about it.
A week later father Chris receives the same letter, now I'm not saying that you took the ladle, but then I'm not saying that you haven't but then I'm not saying that you haven't, but if it's returned I'll say no more about it.
A week later father Jack receives a letter " now I not saying that you are sleeping with your house maid, but then I'm not saying that your not, but if you slept in your own bed, you'd have found the ladle by now..."

More amusing - I gave the inlaw’s young cat a leaving present 😈 a paper scratch box with catnip.. the first time she (the cat) had experienced catnip as it’s not that popular in France.
After 30 minutes of acting like it was experiencing a Hunter S Thompson journey.. she collapsed into her bed mellowed out uncharacteristically for the remainder of the night.
I’m not in the mother inlaw’s good books.. the next morning arrives and the table case knocked over water on the floor and chairs; the scratch box across the table, catnip trail across the now wet table cloth.
However she later sent a photo of the cat sat on the scratch box chilled out - it seems a hit! The golden Labrador seems a bit perplexed 🙂

I suppose a little ketchup in the tank makes the high price of fuel more palatable...
Reminds me of the Heinz ads from the 80's that boasted their vinegar "Isn't Made From Petroleum". How comforting to know other brands could be. At least I know my next plate of Fish & Chips won't burst into flames. And to think that people with a college degree in marketing actually write this stuff.

Artificial vinegar isn’t used as a foodstuff in North America that I am aware of but it is in other, less advantaged countries. Not sure if there’s a taste difference.
I had to stand on my head! 😀Hint: rotate the photo 180 degrees.
I try to watch it on my iPad and I have been standing here for two full hours and tried to rotate the damn thing .... 😳
