Daniel, I was think of 12-15 feet.

Jim, Lew Kirby was on from midnight to 6 am as I recall. From 8 to midnight was a guy named CC something. I later saw CC on Firing Line with Bill Buckley, though I don't remember what for. ***** Hatfield & the North (first album) Donald Fagen - The Nightfly Soft Machine vol. 2

Happy Birthday 2013 Matthew, wherever you are!

The more I look into this, the more I think I need to consider a pair of inexpensive speakers and a bargain amp. Any ideas?

Jim, did you listen to Lew Kirby on WNOE?

Here is Bud Adams' LA Times obituary. http://www.latimes.com/obituaries/la-me-bud-adams-20131022,0,4206815.story#axzz2iP8MOgTZ I think it's interesting that only four NFL owners have won more than 350 games - Dan Rooney and three AFL guys.

Here is ESPN's Bud Adams obituary.

There aren't many left from my childhood. The Oilers won the first two AFL championships, and never one another after that.

Thanks, guys! I'll spend the evening studying your suggestions. I'm going to ask my sister for this for Christmas, so I can't ask for anything too extravagant.

I need new speaker wires. My system is very old and not very good, but it's good enough for me. Can anyone recommend good value (12 gauge?) wire? ***** I am also looking at these Monster connectors. http://www.amazon.com/Monster-QuickLock-MKII-Connectors-Terminations/dp/B000WXBY7I/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_nS_nC?ie=UTF8&colid=RVSBV717YT9&coliid=I21Q153PYMEZU8 Are they too good (and too expensive) for the appropriate wire? I suppose it would be foolish to have connectors that are a lot better than the wire. ***** I will very likely be doing my shopping at Amazon, so I would appreciate links to their products unless you have a suggestion that you think is a much better value. Thanks!

Montreal Alouettes 36....Hamilton Tiger-Cats 5 http://www.sportsnetwork.com/merge/tsnform.aspx?c=sportsnetwork&page=cfl/news/news.aspx?id=4633275 http://www.tsn.ca/cfl/story/?id=434605 Troy Smith got his first start for the Als, and had a good game - 3 TD passes with 0 interceptions. The Als led 31-3 at the half. The Als still have a mathematical chance of finishing in second place. They meet the Ticats again Saturday. A win would have clinched second place for the Ticats.

Happy Birthday 2013 David!

My sentiments as well, Goodie!

BeBop, I'm very sorry to hear of this. I find that reading the New Testament helps me a lot in stressful times. Do you have a copy in your house?

Yesterday Half Note was promoting its Joe Lovano for various Grammy's, and today Piloo Records is doing likewise for this one.

I remember seeing this lady on television some years back. Maybe you can remember what the show was. I think it was on PBS. http://www.latimes.com/obituaries/la-me-maxine-powell-20131020,0,6384764,full.story

Toronto Argonauts 26....Winnipeg Blue Bombers 20 http://www.sportsnetwork.com/merge/tsnform.aspx?c=sportsnetwork&page=cfl/news/news.aspx?id=4632978 http://www.tsn.ca/cfl/story/?id=434537 I was out this afternoon, and returned in time to hear only the last few seconds. Mike Hogan said that the Argos "escaped" with the win. The Argos led 23-3 at the half, and then stopped playing. As a result, the Bombers were eliminated from playoff contention, the Als clinched a playoff spot and the Argos clinched a home playoff game. ***** Saskatchewan Roughriders 35....British Columbia Lions 14 http://www.sportsnetwork.com/merge/tsnform.aspx?c=sportsnetwork&page=cfl/news/news.aspx?id=4633052 http://www.tsn.ca/cfl/story/?id=434559 The Lions were horrible in the first half, losing a lot of fumbles which the Riders turned into touchdowns. The Riders led 31-7 at the half; and it seemed like both teams were going through the motions in the second half. With the win, the Riders clinched a home playoff game.
