Jacco will luv u for posting more TT porn!!! :rofl:

I think that mighty ZM is still asleep from his allnighter here the other day :sleep::sleep::sleep:

Today is the ides of April and here in the American Colonies our annual pound of flesh is due to be paid to the blood suckers in our State and National capitals so a lot of people may be hard to find around today. I think they are giving everyone an extra day because the 15th is on a weekend - so maybe a lot of folks crying and missing tomorrow too.

Fortunately for you I completed and submitted my taxes looooooog ago! If memory serves it was on Friday the 13th:D:D:D Having met my obligation for render unto Cesar what is Cesar's I will be popping in and out from time to time in order to keep things confused and OT. :cool:

Carry on chaps!!!! :D:D:D
 
Pound of flesh is just is just pound of flesh

Here is bit more
Rough numbers
24 % incame tax on all one make (sjkip National insurance)
17% on all one buys
Council tax one get charged to live here
Road found licence get charged to use road
Petrol at £1.4 UK Sterling each liter or in US $8.38 US gallons
Then taxes on Grape Juce and Cigs at £7.5 a paket
Any other thay I may have forgotten

And if one need to work over time to pay for car Incame tax get even higher
Then no mather than we already pay national insurance for going to Doctor evvery once evvery 3 or 4 Years when we need to buy aspirin we get charged as well.

There use to be same perks like Bus pass and so on but they scrapping that for most.

That money is used to give Bentley nice subsody or to buy bankrupt banks in order to sell them back to share holders at a loss.

And back on topic we pay about £150 to watch Fairies on telly

And no refounds for necessary things like toilet paper

Ahhhhhhhhh yes - the grass is always greener in the other chaps yard. My point wuz that there might be a lot of people missing in action today due to working on getting their taxes done, not to start a bitch and moan session about paying them. Lets stick to audio - this is where I come to escape the realities of life and the cost incurred. Plus - I think the mod's have a tax on discussing politics or religion around here...... Hmmmmmmmm - I don't want to think what sort of sin bin I would get tossed into if I started a discussion on - errrrrrrrrrrrr - ummmmmmm - never mind..... :D:D:D

Back to discussing audio TT porn. If memory serves me right was not that chain drive Rabco arm responsible for several audiophiles being shipped off to padded cells?

Quite right...

Yes and even more paded cells for ones using recording lathe of old
till some one made new one and caused Phono Pre designers to need even more paded cells for the Neuman constant altrought is not his fault as he was using totaly different filter which in turn caused diyers to need padded cells as the RIAA filters where also all in need of paded cells.

This went on for a while till the CD turned up and few of the paded cells became empty but soon started to fill up again as one need to be in a paded cell to listen to that...

......................But a guy who cooks on sun-heated stone is likely to be taken away before he gets to finishing the sundial. Perhaps that is where he is....difficult to type when arms are tied to the sides, hence the absence. ;)

What???? Is Jacco visiting??? Haven't heard from him much either - but I think we ran him off with all of the TT discussion. :rolleyes:

I think AR2 purchased one of those greezy stones locally for use at BAF. That saved sum weight so ZM could stuff baggage full of Papa presents to take back home and play with....

BAF stone is probably soaking in something to get seasoned up.... :eek:
