That's good, hopefully it never comes to that. I love glasses, so I've never bothered trying contacts. Good luck with the other stuff, since I'm sure that surgery is not very fun either.

Haha, don't mean to scare you if you need it done, but the possibility is always there. Thankfully my eyes are not very bad, just enough to need glasses. My mom's eyes are horrible, and she will need surgery at some point too. I'm hoping my eye genes are from my dads, since his are fine other then glasses. How long do pacemaker's last Jason? Will you have to get another after the next one? Hopefully they've improved a ton, so you won't have any issues that point forward.

I'd be worried about having eye surgery done too, since if they fuck up, you're blind. I can put eye drops in fine, but I can't touch my eyes. I've never even attempted contacts, only glasses.

Obviously everywhere has problems, but I'd rather have that problem then pay a private company who is not guaranteed to be good on their word for something I pay for. Good old insurance of any kind. We may get cheaper vinyl, but you're money is stronger and your wages are higher.

A much better solution then crazy insurance premiums and hidden costs we have here. Heaven forbid we have "socialized" medicine in Merika.

Yeah, I dropped my laptop and it hit the power brick on the charger so the connection to the cord is lose. I have to shake it around to get it to power, but it won't charge. I paid for overnight shipping, so it better ship today and get here tomorrow.

Bump

Haha, quite true. Hopefully that will change in the near future.

Damn, that sucks. Try medicaid, you probably qualify for some of it.

What?! Why? Abscess? That is insane.

Just ordered a new belt for my table, which will hopefully fix the slowness issues it has. Also waiting on a new laptop charger, since mine decided it does not like to work well anymore. Yay stuff.

Hope your mom's surgery goes well Jason.

I'll order a new belt today. Seems weird since it is supposed to have been a new belt.

The major distribution center in this area is the one in PA, and 99% of mail has to go through their distros. It's just over the line from Ohio. Try living 20 minutes from Cleveland and seeing your package go over an hour away :P.

Congrats Ashton!

I already took the belt off, wiped it down and readjusted it. I'd be pissed if it's the motor, since it was serviced and recapped back in October. I should probably take it back to the shop I bought it from before messing with it. Edit: I used RPM for iOS.

My Harman Kardon T60 suddenly started to sound slow at 33, so I measured it with an app and it's only spinning at 31.25 rpms with quartz lock on. 45 is pretty much on. What would cause the qaurtz to slow down? I know I can open it up and mess with the pots to adjust the speed, which I will do a some point, but it'd be nice to know why it suddenly slowed down. Motor going, bad belt? Any ideas? With the pitch control it' pretty much up to speed, slightly slow on 33 (way too fast on 45) but still sounds good, but it's annoying to mess with it all the time.

I'll try them again. Just sent Chris another email to see if he's heard anything. I refuse to give up at this point.

Did you order through Really records, and sent the message to Chris's bigcartel page, or did you message Really records page?

What a fun day with my TT deciding not to keep speed, and now my laptop's backlight went out. I managed to get the turntable up to like 32.9 speed, so stuff does not sound nearly as bad, but I have to fuck with it everytime I want to listen to a 45. I'm going to take it back to the shop I got it from, and see if he'll fix it for free, since it's only been like 6 months.

Yeah, it'ss annoying that it has to go through the main distro center. Record looks awesome, despite the picture disc being kinda shitty (warped, flimsy, hard to see the grooves). My TT decided to take a shit at 33 (plays too slow) so can't play the album until I fix it later. The bonus tracks sound awesome, but don't fit the album feel much, so I can see why they left them off.

I've been watching movie trailers for an hour, because the phone is not ringing at all. Only 90 mins left....

Nice. I'll grab one for sure, since I'm not a fan of their current shirts.

Speaking of shirts, did you ever ask your buddy if they are making more Nothing Mickey Mouse shirts?
