 And thanks Emil for driving (2 1/2 hours there and 1 1/2 hours home) in the wonderful traffic on the Belt Pkwy. What in the world would it look like if LI had to ever be evacuated?

Bob


My pleasure, Bob :roll: :lol:
You guys made the 150 minute ride feel more like 149 minutes. :lol:

The drive was fun. Listening to Andy's PHd goobledegook, 26 year olds with big boobs, what we would do if were single again ( God forbid of course), the rush of HOVing, racing Wes on the Staten island Expressway, sex robots that can cook, should I buy an Alfa Romeo.....

I figure I used a whole gallon of gas with my Prius so each one of you need to paypal me 66 cents friends and family.

Look for a Rave from me next month.

Thanks again, Joe. Felt like a Rave of old with 3 full pages of bullshitting here on AN

Emil, thanks.  I was beating myself up for not being able to go because of a friend's imminent move to San Fran, and we were getting together for a departure gettogether....

With people incessantly poking their noses and fingers on their iPhones these days (and not getting hit on the street too :duh!), I thought you guys would take pictures easy.  Too much fun is an excusable reason. 

Until next time :thumb:.

Shek

How many were there, Joe?  Picture?  C'mon.  You guys should be showing off your Smartphone pictures? :duh

Sorry, Shek. We were just having too much of a good time :lol:

Joe  has a real sweet system in a beautiful  dedicated room.

The PS Audio and Aqua Hifi digital sure had the vinyl aficionados attention for sure.

Long live Redbook!

Sorry to have missed this.  I was there a week prior to this and Joe's system is sounding really nice.


Hangout with young healthy crowd.  That should keep you young !

Hey Nick,

I haven't posted multiple pictures a long time, so I'm not up to what site I'd be able to do it for posting multiples.  Any suggestion?  I was told long time ago Picasso, but just heard that Picasso is no longer available?  I can post them here, but I'd have to really down-size them, say some of them I have them as 20 MB size.  I will have to re-size them....  I suppose if nobody objects (Charles didn't, right?  He's the boss?.....), for convenience sake.  May be I can just do a dozen or so....? :duh  Animals vs Audio Gear?  They're just as fun..... :duh

OK, I'm risking the wrath of Charles :rofl:, here go several pictures of my Safari trip.  They've been significantly downsized because of house rules I guess.  I'm making several entries to play around the rule i guess :duh.  I'll try to make some annotations; will see when I figure it out.  Here goes:

#1 is a lioness strolling around, looking for a kill/hunt.
#2 is a zebra trying to cross the "street", ignoring the heavy auto traffic.
#2 are some sculpted animals marching in front of our lodge area.

#4 is a lizard, beautiful, found basking in the sun around a rest area.
#5 is a Masai woman selling handicrafts, at a Masai village.  We earlier had discussions with various groups.  My group
   were all guys, talking about male business in the Masai commune; we even covered male contagious diseases, etc. 
   with the Masai guys.
#6 a beautiful bird, Starling, that caught my eye when I was strolling to see Mt. Kilimanjaro at a lookout station.

#7 Twin elephants at a drinking spot.  Oh, Serengeti National Park.
#9 A hunting lioness (the males are chauvinistic, they don't do much except having sex to make babies with the
     females).  This gal circled around like a dozen of Toyota Land Cruisers (we're all "hanging" there to watch her
     stalking a gazelle.  She's like 10 ft. away in this picture.
#10 A giraffe drinking by the river.  Giraffes are tall animals, imagine how they'd post to drink?  Spread the legs wide,
   and significantly lower the neck to reach the water.  Also, I called this shot "my" hanging tale picture.  "Hanging Tale" is
   the calling name for a leopard, which typically peches above ground, in a tree, with its tail hanging.  I don't have a good hanging tale picture for show.... :duh :rofl:  :thumb:

Oh, I didn't number 8.
