Two ABBA songs that are my favorites that are not heard as freqently are "The Winner Takes it All" and "Super Trooper". Dad has this album and it was one of his favorites to play on his old Fisher stereo system. Super Trooper has a nice, punchy beat to it that I've always enjoyed. The Winner...

I remember York made a heat pump called the Trathlon that utilized a otto cycle engine burning natural gas instead of an electric motor to turn the compressor. On the heat side, the waste heat was pumped back into the house and was used to warm home. During the summertime, the heat was just...

COOL! ...literally! I've seen that case design frequently with the Trane logo on them. I've always liked those spine-fin coils. They sort of remind me of the branches of the aluminum Christmas trees in the sixties. My Grandfather was an engineer at Reynolds Metals back in the fifties, and I...

NOT TOO FAR FROM YA! How much do you want for that GM gem! I could come and get it since I'm just down the road so to say!

I belive this is a time for more truth....While yes, in the past all the news outlets matched, but who is to say they were all not reporting the same warped story?!?! At least nowadays, with all the modern information technologies, we have a sort of check and balance system going on with the...

having a water heater that needs electricity is sort of a hinderance around here. We get frequent thunderstorms during the summer, and ice storms during the winter, and the result is frequent power outages. If one has a water heater that does not require electricity, you can still at least get a...

"The occupant is invariably in shorts and a T-shit or a cheap and flimsy (i.e. not heavy-weight/warm) house-dress. This is extremely unhealthy and downright dangerous. Put some clothes on! " What about if you are truly uncomfortable in clothes?!?! Sounds odd, and I'm not trying to make any...

Here's one...Gas cookers tend to drive manual stickshift cars, while electric cookers tend to drive automatic transmission cars! ...at least it's that way in my household! My mom and my aunt are deticated electric cookers and wouldn't touch a stickshift car. Myself, my sister, and my...

Fun little song! I guess some of the vintage washers really do look like jukeboxes with those fun control panels on them!

I saw that picture of the Speed Queen internals, and spotted that familiar solenoid right off! That is the same solenoid as the Da-lite screen company uses to open and close the door on their executive series screens. I see those frequently in my job as an audiovisual techie!

it looks a little small...from that first video, if cat sits wrong while "doing it's business" they will end up aiming over the side and missing the litterbox completely. Still, an interesting gadget. I wonder if any cats would have a problem with the cold, damp sand in it. I imagine the warm...

wait a minute guys, looks like you all have fallen into the same trap all the media hype has been drumming up... HEALTH INSURANCE IS *NOT* THE PROBLEM!!!!! The real problem is that health care costs too much. The reason why some people do not have health insurance is because it costs too...

It doesn't say what this is about... maybe a training film on how to sell Electrolux vacuums door to door? Or maybe it could be a film on how to repair Electrolux appliances. It doesn't say. I've got a 16mm projector, maybe I ought to place a bid and thread it up...

great looking machine! Wish it was closer to me!

The media Here's my collection of cassette tapes. Each bin holds 100 tapes, so that's a lot of tapes. These are all high bias and metal bias TDK tapes. They contain copies from my record album collection. In my van, I have a fancy cassette player that will play back Dolby C and dbx encoded...

OOPS, picture didn't post!

Totally neat cassette decks guys! Many of those older cassette decks were really made nice. I'm always fascinated by those rare portable reel to reel decks. Here's a picture of my "ultimate" mother of all cassette decks...the Tascam 112!

Anybody know if any of the high performance metal alloy cassette tapes can be found anywhere? It's even hard to find the high bias chromium tapes nowadays. I've got a fancy Tascam 112 studio grade cassette deck that sounds really nice with those high-end cassette tapes!

I have a "hybrid" sansui amp. It has vacuum tube finals, but the preamplifier stages, and the tuner are all solid state. One of my neighbors gave it to me years ago when I was about 14 years old. That amplifier was a favorite of everyone in college...it would blow the roof off of the college...

There's a Sears Silvertone stereo system sitting in the youth room up at my church. It's in really good shape cosmetically, and it's been there as long as I've been there...and I've been going to the same church since I was a baby. The cabinet is a danish modern design, and it's sort of a...
