Are you sure she didn't say "needle"?
no, that's why it was funny - the real old timers must have referred to the stylus as 'nails' going back to the very early days

I'm not old and I still call them "records."
Maybe not, but if you were listening to 'Immigrant Song' on a 45, you ain't no kid.
Yeah, but you were probably a pre-teen if you were playing 45s. --
I still play 45's. New ones even. Some stuff is just better that way. Ironically, 'Immigrant Song' is a good example.

I'm 37. We had 45s in the '70s - it wasn't quite the Dark Ages.
I understand they were a great improvement over the wax cylinders, eh?
Oh, aye. I'm fond of that new horseless carriage as well.

Are you a vinyl / tube amp purist type?
Pretty much, though 'purist' might be a little strong, I'm not at all snobby about it. You can't beat the convenience of modern multitrack software, ipods, etc..

I can just see a small tube amp for an ipod. That would be funny. You would need a car battery to power it. Not very portable.
I saw a small tube amp for car stereos. It used tiny little tubes and produced lots of heat. Not very practical and expensive as well.

I've been intrigued by the discussions on single end triode amps coupled with high efficiency full range drivers in horn enclosures. Pretty pricey stuff, but the latent Heathkit geek in me might try to put something together sometime.

30 years later she is but a shadow of her former well-rounded sophisticated self. Maybe she should take accordion lessons and get some purpose in her otherwise wasted life.
I wonder why a 37 year old finds it necessary at that stage in life, to be reading for an English degree? As a discipline it is something that any educated person already possesses, and as a vocational qualification it's quite useless!!
However, it certainly makes her feel superior to "x-no-archive:yes" Wendy, who trembles gelatinously at her feet!!
Yes now I can see why she affects the academic airs. Pointy headed and
full

of [censored]! (as for Wendy, that's the lady who is a 'trophy' wife and runs around with athletes, right?)
"x-no-archive:yes" Wendy is going through a bad patch, which is something of a shame. I used to be quite fond of her, and quite protective too, but she got all stroppy and told me to bugger off, so I did.
She then got herself into all sorts of problems by attempting to be 'one of the boys', and got her come-uppance from the very nasty anonymous Lucas Buck!!
She is now very nervous and has reverted to [censored]-licking in order to curry favour (not curry flavour, unless they've been on the Vindaloo) with "the hyenas"!!
She is very silly!!
Does this newsgroup have a website that everyone posts their pics/profiles?
