Yeah, Iā€™m kidding. Itā€™s a damned odd CD, though. Big and black. Wonā€™t fit in the player. One big long scratch on it. ---

Nice to see people support vinyl, for whatever reason. They will still play a hundred years from now, when CDs have all decomposed. I have maybe 300LPs, 400CDs, even a box of 45s. The little biddy 45s are a pain to play, so Iā€™m copying some to CD some day, no big hurry. ---

**aha** , my wife says to tell you she likes ā€œWestern Unionā€ and the follow-up, whatever it was (I have it, but am too lazy to look it up). Says I, ā€œYou mean the one that sounded just like ā€˜Western Union?ā€™ā€ Says her, ā€œYeah. I like it.ā€
