And yeah, it gets weirder…

“For you older folks, it was like a wax cylinder, except flat.” Harvey? (SMACK!) You young whippersnapper! A little respect for your elders, or it’s the woodshed for you!
Yeah, some of us older folks still have working turntables (Harmon Kardon) but with modern preamps. No way am I parting with my LP collection that goes back to the…. Wait. I ain’t tellin’! Okay, sure… Back to about when Harvey was born. 🙂
Harmon Kardon was kick ass back in the day! But then we would all get “well oiled” an someone would fall on the turntable and well…there goes another LP! Great old days! I still think Vinyl sounds better! I’m going to go out and buy a new LP player and go buy some old records. I miss those days. You young punks can give me a Monica! Hey, I heard that Jimmy is 1/32 Barney Frank! Can anyone confirm?
My daughter once explained LP’s to my son as “CD’s you have to turn over halfway through”. I was so proud.
Oh, ussjimmycarter, you are so right! (But your math is just WRONG, dude – go back to school!) That diamond needle on the end of my stylus is just STYLIN’!
