Older And Wiser or just Tighter and Deafer?

I’m 63. I’m not wealthy but I have a tolerant wife and I still love to pursue great sound. But I find myself increasingly reluctant to spend significant amounts on new gear. I know my hearing acuity is not as good as it used to be, but my love of music and good sound is not diminished. When considering a purchase, I find myself factoring in cost versus life expectancy (mine!) and auditory function. I’ll even have some guilt about spending my kid’s inheritance. Is something wrong with me?

Yup this is what happens with dummies in charge. At least dummies in regards to things other than making money.  Also dummies who think they know better than experts.

Now let’s see if the dummies can learn new things when needed or continue to make the same mistakes.

Apparently the dummy in Georgia cannot and the dummy in the White House is OK with that.

If I want to answer that OP question.... I am old and wiser because I realize how fool I was, how stupid I was, and how inconsiderate I am even now... But the little light  there is, illuminate more in these darker days of old age.... :)

Okay, now they've applied the final straw. Tyson Foods is closing its largest pork processing plant in Iowa.

Closing the beaches? Ok. Tracking citizens via drones? OK. Government edicts to snitch on each other? Ok. BUT ... mess with our bacon and there's gonna be hell to pay. 

I predict riots in the streets of Rodney King proportions.
