The Slapster has been around. Watching. Knowing. Waiting.
LOL. Been somewhat busy. I got xferred to another department at work, and damnit, i actually have to do stuff. No more "Maytag repairman" job for the ol slap.
Been spending a bunch of time looking into starting a business. Here at the mile high there are plenty of rich bastards who do not trust salesman at the local electronic superstores, yet they crave to have a wicked HT rig.
Ive been getting my ducks lined up to start some free-lance HT consultation and installation. Im not going to be obligated to use any specific brands, and will not work on comission but flat fees. Nothing too major because i already have a 12-8 job, but smaller work to get my feet wet. See the kind of work that is out there, and if i feel i am passing on too many large jobs then i might try doing it full time.
Ive ran hundreds of miles of cabling in my time, and after remodeling my entire house, there aint much i cannot do with drywall/framework/tile/electrical/painting.
I've always envied those who have a job they are passionate about and enjoy. My current job isnt bad, but i really dont like the corperate life. It is no fun having other people determine your fate and pass judgement on you by metrics alone without ever meeting you.
SO, i love stereo gear, low-fi, mid-fi, hi-fi, i love it all. I also enjoy tearing things apart, fixing things, and installing things.
nothing feels better than to do something and do it right. To have the finished product and know it is quality work.
