Just another asshole from Toledo, Ohio.
In tonight's edition of "fucking around with speakers":
These speakers are bottom-ported, and the carpet is kinda shaggy, so I've tried putting some kinda heavy rubber bases underneath to see if the extra breathing room improves bass response.
And, pleased to say this one seems to have worked. 👍

Pretty nice to still be picking bowls of raspberries in early October. The Anne yellow ones are particularly nice this time of year.

I have now officially grown, harvested, and eaten pawpaw in my yard. I also collected the seeds, and will likely plant them in the Spring. Fuck yeah. (And they were good, if just a touch over-ripe)

Age yourself with a movie you saw in a theater as a kid. (A friend's mom took my friend and I to a midnight showing of this when I was far too young...)

Ignored the raspberry bed for a while after the last flush of fruit, and found a ton of perfectly ripe berries today. Nothing wrong with that.

Plucked the first ever pears from the yard today. The first one was delicious. Definitely looking forward to a lot more of these in the future. 🌱

The stinky beast was finally let into my office today, for the first time in a week, since the smell of her has subsided quite a bit. I think she is happy to get some of her usual routine back, as she promptly fell asleep.

I am also trying out some crazy moto-looking big riser bars for the electric mountain bike. Should be a fun test ride tomorrow.

Put the slick tires back on the 750. Figured I should have one bike set up in road mode.
