What?

 

[SlyPokerDog]

What?

Refresh.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Oh no, @HCP is a Dacist! Thinks all Davises look a like!

 

[hoopsjock]

No wonder @HCP is such a pain, we traded Jermaine O'Neal for that guy?

 

[Driew]

How does hcp keep his job with that fuck up? Dame should have fired you on the spot! But it's the holidays so I guess it was nice of him to let you keep your job. Our replays would have improved if he did though lol

 

[THE HCP]

Right? My man said, I think you said "Dale Davis". Shit, Dame probably was in diapers when Dale was out there banging huh?

 

[THE HCP]

I just assumed he was going to say, "The HCP of course".

So you hate on Rooks in real life too eh.

HAHAHAHAHAHA!

Blazers announce that Damian Lillard has filed for and was granted a restraining order against Blazer Broadcasting's @HCP. HCP now must stay at least 100 yards away from Mr Lillard and is only allowed to mow his lawn when Dame isn't home. When asked for a comment Mrs HCP wondered how she can get one of these restraining orders.

The look on Dame's face says "can't believe they are paying me to sit with this dude who don't even know Ed Davis from Dale Davis".

Probably figured people wouldn't see it because the camera man would be showing replays of something else during the live shot.

Bro, been growing out the beard a bit lately and DAMN, you're right, it is grey as fuck! I'm cool with it though. Wife digs it. Thats just life experience bro. Been there done that FAMS! Age is a state of mind.

 

[Labinot41]

I have allways wondered what does HCP actually mean? Google Translator says Handicap

 

[julius]

[e_blazer]

I think HCP got it right. He's old and ready to be retired like Dale.

At first I didn't think this was funny, but after a few reads, I will give you props.

At least you have the good sense and common decency to wear your snapback with the SNAPS IN THE BACK. Hat on backwards is an extremely douchey look for anyone over the age of 40. It says, "I desperately wish I was cool, but I'm just old". Thanks for aging gracefully. There may be hope for you yet.

I'd like to think I'm aging gracefully. It happens to everybody, just have to decide how you're gonna handle it. When I hear my kids friends give me props in the back seat while I'm carpooling, makes me feel good. I remember the younger days saying to myself that I would never get old, not me. Can't escape it.

OK, make that: "Hat on backwards is an extremely douchey look for anyone over the age of 30."

I was just talking to my 23-year old son about this yesterday. He thinks it's cool that I'm into "vinyl". I've hooked him and all his friends up with vintage turntables. I pick them up at Goodwill and off craigslist, restore/repair/service them, install and properly set up a new cartridge/stylus and pass them on. These are vintage tables from the late-70s, early-80s, right before CDs came out, when turntables had reached their pinnacle of design and construction. They are much better machines than anything new you can buy for less than $500 and have that desirable retro look all the kids are into these days. All the hipster Portland kids are into vinyl. So, I am their go to guy when it comes to hooking them up with vintage gear. I told my son, "I didn't come to hip, hip came to me." I was into vinyl way before it became cool (again).

Out of curiosity.

We have an old Bang and Olufsson (spl?) turntable stored away. How hard would it be to restore a foreign make like that?

Depends on what model and what's wrong with it. If you just need it serviced (cleaned lubed and adjusted), it will typically run about $125 - $150.

Parts for many of their models are unobtanium. They also used proprietary cartridges with non-removable styli. They no longer make cartridges, but there is a company called SoundSmith that does. They are expensive. If your stylus is worn, another option is a retipping service. They install a new diamond on your existing cantilever. Re-tipping services start at about $75 for a bonded elliptical and go up from there depending on the diamond profile.

Which B&O model is it. My first turnbable was a Beogram 3400 that I bought back in 2008. It was still working fine when I sold it in 2017. I also have a 3404 parts unit and an MMC20 cartridge.

The thought that anything from the late 70s is now vintage made me laugh. Not that it is incorrect, just that I'm so very old.
