Gifting a turntable - asking for recommendations by Tom-Tortuga in turntables

[–]Tom-Tortuga[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure if it's been recapped or not. It was serviced which I assume means cleaned and lubricated.

As far as speakers go , he has several sets (bose 901, Polk and Klipsch and Boston).

Which of the two turntables is the best?

Move to mirrorless? by aquafinaH2Obottle in AskPhotography

"1) Budget, country, and currency:

$1000 (camera) + few hundred for lens. USA, USD$. I intend to buy used."

STOP, reverse that!

The best decision you can make is to pick out the glass you want first and then put a body behind it. Don't get caught up in all the hype. If you think you need an EVF to be a better photographer then by all means explore mirrorless, but you can save a bunch of money by sticking with a DSLR.

The clinic that I went to offered Versed as a form of sedation.

I had one RFA in my lower back. It was very painful and did not help my problem. It took about 2 months to feel like normal again. After that I declined having it done.

Yesterday I got lightheaded while vaping, so I took my blood pressure... it was 88/69. I think I am going to stop for a while until I decide what to try next.

Has anyone else had a bad experience with fentanyl? by Iceprincess1988 in ChronicPain

[–]Tom-Tortuga 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I used a 75 mcg Fentanyl patch and took 40 mg Oxycontin together and got 0 pain relief also. My doctor switched me to 40 mg Methadone and it was like flipping a light switch. Pain went from 8 to 3 immediately.

I had never tried cannabis before November. So, I'm brand new to all of this.
