    There is a vinyl resurgence , sorta... young kids wanting to be different

    Most LP listeners will say Records 'sound different' - warmer more pleasing than CDs or MP3

    However , it takes more $$$ to get a vinyl system to sound better than the cost of a mid-Fi CD Player

    Got my credit card bill under control. Just not betting or spending the same Amounts the past few months. Not losing money and paying off debt versus sending it to the books has changed for the majority of us that don’t win consistently.

    I’m ok so far. Baseball is my bread and butter. Hoops bet very sparingly anyways.

    As of now I haven’t missed a beat?
