Yes and at this point all oldies but goodies. Each tape a collection of similar music so I could just pick a tape for mood.
Mine is a Masterwork, which I purchased new about 1970. I have about a dozen cartridges for it and it is in great shape, because I mostly used the Sony 630D or the Teac A-4300-SX 10 1/2" reel to reels day to day and the 8-Track and my turntable to record from.
50F @ 88% RH, more rain with 5 mph winds and predicted to reach 52F.
The dying 95 year old European weeping Birch in our front parking strip is scheduled to come out today and the bee rescue organization is scheduled to be here to both supervise and to handle relocating the section of the trunk with the bees in it to a suitable habitat and setting it up as a hive.
I hate to see them go after about 13 years but the tree is getting dangerous and in danger of dropping large limbs on the sidewalk and cars, or being taken out by high winds and hitting our house.
I watched them arrive in a swarm and the hive both flourish and almost completely die out multiple times as the vagaries of bees living in the city ran its course. To watch one crash at my feet kicking in its death throes from pesticides encountered in someone's ornamental garden, is like watching one of our kids or pets die.
God speed and good luck little bees.......................... I trust the organization that has agreed to rescue them and will miss watching them work our flowers and clover.
I’m not sure this guy knew it he is older than me too. I think they just use him to push the X-ray button
We wore our school sweat shirts inside out when we were up to mischief, so as to not reflect on our school or give out clues.

That is outstanding what the organization is doing . I have caught swarms b4 and if you are lucky to get the queen with them they are loaded with honey preparing for their move. Funny ,when I was single and flirting with the ladies i would tell some I named my queen after you. I would also say I named 400 bees after you . Never worked..

You never took a shower while deployed? Phew!Never had the pleasure.
He was reminiscing on how you quickly learned to take showers while on patrol. He said you walked into the shower, pushed the button, got wet as quickly as you could and got lathered up. The shower would stop after a few seconds. You went ahead scrubbing your hair and other spots, then hit the button again for the rinse. If you didn't get all the soap off, too bad. You didn't get the third push. You quickly learned just how much soap you could get away with using and still be able to get it all rinsed off.
The boat was allowed x amount of gallons per day. If you went over said amount, they would suspend showers and laundry for three days. He said the sub he was on always had a funny smell to it, but after three days of no showers and dirty laundry, it had a really nasty funk about it.
People really strived NOT to go over the daily water allotment.

They used to call me "Sponge Bath Square Pants" before it became fashionable ...
I should have done a selfie with him…
I never lived in the boats just worked on them. Road them a few times but never long enough to need a shower. But yes especially the older boats showers and flushing we’re both a unique animal.
There's a lot going on right in our own Grand Canyon no one hears about either. Search about the National geographic funded exploration that the military shut down back in the 20s or 30s I believe. Very strange. You cant go there, was guarded dont know if it still is. Very odd.

Absolutely it is manipulated. We dump billions in to float it.
I wonder if the subs were designed so that when it was time to dump the waste it came out the rear of the sub to make it look as if a large whale taking a good dump.
I never had 8 track. Couldnt abide the Cluck when it changed tracks in the middle of a song. My buddy had them, and a big box of parts from old ones so he could fix the eaten tapes.

I do remember the one in my car ate tapes like they were Mcdonalds fries
