I found my high school boombox on eBay. Sony CFS-DW60 Mega Bass Boombox. Lots of fond memories of listening to it on the back porch playing ping pong with friends (I also bought a ping pong table). The tape bays don't work properly but I don't have any tapes to play anyway. I keep it in the garage attached to an airport express for music. The sound is better than I expected as long as I keep the volume reasonable.
Ha, yes! I had one of these beauties in the 80's, and bought another on eBay a few years ago, just because of how awesome they are. Panasonic RX-5050:

Just this week I bought a 6 pack of Old Style Beer. In fact I'm having one right now.
Not nearly as refreshing as I remember as a teenager though. I guess my tastes have improved. :dunno:

I think Pabst started brewing it again. My bar has it on tap.

1975 Chevy Corvette.
I always liked that generations style, although '75 wasn't my first pick in year. It was just too much of a smokin' deal to pass up.
No buyers remorse here. :driving:

I get that. I'd like another 454 'vette again.
