Thursday miscellanea #591

Did you catch my latest at We Are Huntsville? I love ToyBox Bistro and I’m glad they’ve survived the pandemic.
I do not have as severe a poison ivy rash as I had when I was a boy, but wow, is it ever lasting a long time. This is day ten. However, this is the second day it’s unambiguously improved. Hoping only a day or two more.
We dispatched Mare of Easttown as quickly as I suspected we might, and now we’ve just about gotten Whitechapel eaten.
I haven’t thought of Helen, Georgia in a long, long time. Then today I saw it mentioned it two different places, completely unrelated. Isn’t that weird when that happens?
We’re still trying to go to the Indy 500 on tickets I bought almost two years ago. Glad the Speedway has had pandemic-friendly options for 2020 ticketholders. Just reupped for 2022. Here’s hoping. No new diseases, please.
I have had excellent experiences with Fosi Audio‘s amplifiers. I just had the two-channel one to start with, but recently got one with subwoofer input, and I’m in love. They barely cost anything. And I think we’ve gotten so used to portable music listening, we’ve forgotten how good a dedicated stereo can sound. Before you pull the trigger on some all-in-one box, look into building a system around one of these. Wow.
This weather will teach me not to squander days (or even hours of them) on which I can get things done outside.
