Yet again, my remarkable good taste confirmed

Mrs. Curmudgeon broke down and got me the gift at the top of my list for Christmas: an Ion Tape 2 PC, which is a dual cassette deck with a USB connection. Along with a handy software package, this allows one to easily convert one's old and vast audio cassette collection into mp3 files, thereby redeeming the hundreds and thousands of dollars I spent a couple audio recording revolutions ago. I've started with the As ("Art of Noise" this week), and expect to be done with the process a couple years from now. (I still have a day job.) I must say, even going back some 25 years, my musical tastes hold up remarkably well. If I do say so myself.

Thanks, Mrs. Curmudgeon!
