remember, you must die

totally, thanks for tip on Sony. I find the older stuff to be built better so I don’t mind repairing them

really into freestyle polka on my portable cassette player these days. you?

ahh yeah. I do spend most of my time off line and that’s one reason I don’t want to use streaming services

sorry, was assuming this was broader than just federal. thanks for clarifying

a nickel (0.05$) costs 14 pennies (0.14$) to make
