    I was at Belgium Brewery (Fat Tire is one of the more known products) many years ago (after hours business GTG) and ordered a coors light. It was like the stock broker commercials where the entire lively bar goes silent, only with dirty looks :rofl: :lol:

    Don't you find it astounding that the customer can find the solution, but the company that made the component cannot?:startled:

    E.F Hutton! I was in a casino in the Bahamas playing blackjack and I hit on 9 ace by mistake and got the same response I swore the whole casino went deathly quiet! I drew a deuce! When E.F. Hutton speaks everyone listens!:)

    it wasn't cold enough last night for a fire but when I got up at 4 a.m. to go to work the house was a little cool so I threw a couple splits on and got a small fire going. funny how a little fire made the early morning seem better.

    I think mine is too old. I bought it in 2008 or 2009 and it was a refurb so it might be more like a 2007 model year unit.

    Is there a common name for this feature? With 2 little kids, we keep the volume low but then struggle to hear the dialog. I have a low end but just one year old Denon. The manual is just about useless so I bet there is a bunch it can do that I am unaware.

    Rewired 14 outlets and 5 switches. Fixed the underground dog fence. Helped the BIL pour 10 yards or concrete in his pole barn. Got the van packed up for a road trip.

    Nasty rainy day today. Haven't seen the sun in about a week it seems like.
