The stair guys got here at 9:30a. They started right in with what sounds like three different saws. One guy said he thought that the carpet people who did the stairs previously must have put at least 50 staples on every stair of...

In The Weeds on Tuesday May 13

celticeagle @celticeagle (189874) • Boise, Idaho 13 May 25

I awoke this morning thinking there is no way I can walk on tile again today. So I stayed upstairs in my room. The vinyl goes into one more room and a closet and then it is done. He says he will be done today. I am hopeful. I...

Vinyl Junkie

Scott Ganschow @teamfreak16 (43602) • Denver, Colorado 2 Jan 20

I became a vinyl junkie around 10 or 11 years of age, until the invention of the compact disc, when I became a CD junkie. My adult life has been quite nomadic, and I became weary of hauling all of those vinyl records around, and...

LindaOH @LindaOHio (222417) • United States 4 Jun 19

Do you remember the 45 rpm records shown above? Do you remember the little plastic inserts that would go in the center so that you could play it on the record player? What about 78 rpm, 33-1/3 rpm, tape decks, cassettes,...

Happy National Vinyl day, which is also August 12th! I’m not sure everyone in hear even knows what a vinyl is/was. Vinyl is like a big CD/disc with music on it and you need a machine that has an arm with a needle that points...

I Need a Vinyl Education

Four Walls @FourWalls (86713) • United States 6 Mar 18

This morning I woke up and did my usual routine: first, I checked the news to make sure the world hadn't ended. If it had, no sense in getting out of bed and going to work, right? Then, of course, I check myLot for...

Do you think vinyl sound is better than digital sound?

The Invisible Man @TheInvisibleMan (17594) 6 Aug 17
