    Hmm probably Electric President - s/t. Definitely not one of my most valuable but one of my favorite albums and hard to replace since it never pops up for sale anywhere.

    yes i have one but i also have an ipad2.  i use the mini at work mostly because of the portability (for reading, etc.) and i let the kids watch movies on the full size ipad.  its a iittle bit harder to type on the mini, whereas the reg ipad has essentially a full size keyboard

    Also, wanted to bring up what i've done to fix warped records in the past and now it's what i do every time with perfect results.
     
    I tried it (and perfected it) on records I didn't care about destroying first, obviously. But it's pretty simple. I bought two ceramic pizza serving plates / stones (mine are 12" but I guess you could go bigger). I then preheat my oven to 150 degrees (doesn't take long at all — a few minutes, max) and then I sandwich the record between the two smooth sides of the ceramic plates. At first I thought I'd need to take the record out after a few minutes or even less than that, but sometimes I find I have to leave the record in there for 20+ minutes (seriously). I baby sit it and continually check on it. I think the key is that the pizza ceramic stones aren't heavy enough to impose their weight into the grooves at a low-ish oven temp, but ARE heavy enough to influence the warp back to a flat state. Eventually it'll get to a point where you can tell the warp in the record isn't forcing up on the top ceramic plate anymore and that's a good sign that you're almost done. It's more of a feel thing and nowhere near a science, but I've yet to wreck a record doing it and everything I've done with it is playable afterward with no skips whereas before it was junk so, whatever. Food for thought. Here's a google image search for similar versions of what I use for this:
