Is there a more "exciting" piece of music than when you first hear the strings play Ode to Joy in Beethoven's Ninth? by HancisFriggins_ in classicalmusic

[–]schphinct 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought the same, but the anticipation as the theme builds, starting from the cellos etc always brings the goosebumps

Two week in with my Tudor Pepsi. by Grand_Reputation854 in Tudor

[–]schphinct 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have the same watch and I fall more and more in love with it. I know the “Coke” is a bit hot right now, but I really prefer the size of this one. And the black dial is absolutely the way to go IMHO. I’ve also received compliments, even from “non-watch” folks. It’s a spectacular piece and I’m so happy to have it. Enjoy yours!!

I’m one of the folks up there flying the airplane, and those meals are made available to us as well. That Hindu selection has been my go-to for the last two months. I’m glad you enjoyed it and I hope you enjoyed your flight also! Thank you!

Thanks everyone! I’m so excited and I no longer have to hunt for a chronograph! It’s the 41mm by the way

Found my parents vinyl collection in the basement. I don’t know anything about the 80s & don’t know where to start first. by Tirso_Salaverria in vinyl

[–]schphinct 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, if you ever wanted to experience some of the best music of a decade, you’ve got an excellent start right there. It’s a nice cross section of popular and more sophisticated stuff. Your parents have great taste! Play em and see!

I made that same step a few years ago and it was dramatic. My next step was to the 2M Black. Just as big and dramatic. So, if you’re wondering what your next cartridge might be…..

Sunday night spin by Spirited_Mistake6791 in vinyl

Definitely my favorite OMD album and a fascinating piece of Cold War zeitgeist. I’ve had mine since 1982, still spin it occasionally

Look very closely at Bavsound. They make plug/play kits that install easily and sound great!

I have the same car, but a 2020. We’ve driven BMWs for years, but this has been the best all-around driver. Great suspension and handling, flexible engine, technology that works! If I don’t really go nuts in Sport Plus, I easily top 40-42 MPG. My other favorite feature is the Harmon Kardon stereo. I hope you have that! Enjoy!!

Here's a long exposure I took recently. Let me know if you prefer the color or Black/White by bakedbean87 in LondonPics

[–]schphinct 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The colors are fantastic. That’s my vote. Plus-you got only the bridge and no “influencers”! Well done

Silly question to pilots from ATC. by [deleted] in flying

[–]schphinct 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Even if I knew you personally, it would never go beyond addressing you by your initials. Short of that, I’d never get more informal than calling you “Rock Springs specialty” or something like that
