Yesterday, Robert M. Sides had an "invitation only" door buster sale. The item I wanted was a Boss BR 600 8-track digital recorder, so I could make my answer to "Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band" (which was recorded on 4-track but "ping ponged" to make 8 tracks). Les Paul invented the multi-track recorder, but George Martin made it into an art form.
Doors opened at 12. Second day out driving, but it still takes a long time to get in and out of the Gemini space capsule, and then crutch it up the hill to the store entrance.
Passing me on the way was a young Asian student (a local, his parents are probably profs). He forgot his iPad, so he went back to his car (an old BMW 320i).
Turned out he wanted the recorder too, so when the store finally open we asked the store manager flip a coin.
WHY DIDN'T I PICK TAILS? I THOUGHT TAILS IN MY HEAD BUT BLURTED OUT "HEADS!" LIKE RALPHIE BLURTED OUT THE "F" WORD IN "A CHRISTMAS STORY".
Good Grief! So the rich kid with the iPad got the 8-track recorder for $129.95. What a revoltin' development!
So I crutched it back to the car, did the Houdini to contort myself into the driver's seat w/out bending my bad leg too far (and from screaming, "BLOODY MURDER!"), and then went to the store and purchased a bag of anti-depressants (Raisinettes).
Well, I'll make up for that misfortune by winning a ZR Prime ED! TAILS! TAILS!
