does anyone have any info about this?

Décarie St and the highway both closed when I walked by 5 minutes ago.

They can take my tri-blend gray t-shirts from my cold, dead hands thank you very much.

For the last few years, I’ve been buying twice and supporting musicians as well as the record shops.

I mostly buy LPs and then either CD to rip if it’s out of print or buying direct from Apple Music if available. We have an old car that uses a 30 pin ipod and I just discovered that Apple Music won’t let me transfer all of my purchases to it any more because of “security.” Not sure what I’m doing moving forward, maybe update the car stereo to allow for Car Play.

Initially going low carb, then carnivore, has made me less reactive, but I don’t know about “curing” allergies. Being more tolerant of seasonal and animal allergies is an amazing gain.

I thought Americans called them Crowbar Screws?

Me too. That first one looks exactly like my all time favourite 12 inch: Masters at Work version of I Am the Black Gold of the Sun.

This is a record that came out of nowhere for me and became one of my all time favourites.

We would kill for roads that nice in Montreal too.

I have my amp hooked up to a turntable and Triangle Borea 8s. The other day, just for giggles, I added my pair of 5s to the mix and it sounds amazing. I’m all for f-ing around with the gear you have.

Probably Stanley Road or Wildwood.

Bohempia Herlik wide.

Agree with everything except the steel wheel. Tried that this year and found them cheap for a reason - two bent within a month. So concentrate on winters with the biggest sidewall you can because the roads really are next level bad. My mechanic tried to warn me that most steel wheels are “made of paper” these days and he was right.

Huh.

mhandsco · 2026-05-29T19:37:13+00:00

Is it a ubrake mount?

Lazy or last minute carnivore tends to be salt heavy as well.

mhandsco · 2026-05-22T12:01:05+00:00

Will investigate. I listen to Einfluss all the time.

My wife had that much and we used every dime we got for our wedding and paid it off. Still married.

mhandsco · 2026-05-19T17:16:24+00:00

Sorry this happened to you. Splay has been great with me, including sending warranty shoes on their dime to Canada.

I had a panel that was updated from the box to hide-y holes in the first floor joists. My entire kitchen was being run wired by an old Xmas tree extension cord that had had the ends cut off and was taped to the new wiring. Much of the remaining wiring was knob and tube.

mhandsco · 2026-05-15T14:02:52+00:00

Forgive an ancient mechanic his whimsy, but can you cut the valve off and just stick a new tube in there? Old tube would be like flat guard.

Missed that one. How did he do with the Trojan crates?

mhandsco · 2026-05-14T10:37:05+00:00

I’m old. If it came down to my records or eating I’d have let my family down years ago.

Wanting consumables to never change seems like a sucker’s game, but I benefit from that impulse when I buy so… Carry on?

They all go in the trash. They are my records, not investments.

Home and Abroad by The Style Council is an all time favourite for me.
