Wife Factor Resolved!
A Gearhead's Happy Ending
A Humble "Guy" Limerick by Moonshot An audiophile I once knew, Had a head with a loose screw or two, -There weren’t any moments, -He didn’t dream of components, Over time, an obsession that grew. It seemed that he lived with the fear, That he never would have enough gear, -So he bought and he bought, -With 'nary a thought, And his predicament soon became clear. He had boxes that covered the floor, To the ceiling he’d stacked them galore, -With his bathroom boxed in, -To his neighbors chagrin, He had to pee out the back door. Then one day his wife said “Enough! I simply can’t stand all this stuff”, -And with compass in hand, -She made her last stand, Then navigated out in a huff. That next morning abruptly at seven, He slid out of his bed into heaven, -Because now in his home, -So completely alone, He could crank it way up to eleven!” Last edited by Moonshot; 11-09-2017 at 01:50 PM. |

Love the poem. But the best decision I ever made as an audiophile was never to get married in the first place, lol!

Too funny.
My wife has no problem with by audio obsession. It fact she encourages me to get more gear. Our next set of speakers could be a pair of Legacy Audio Whispers. She likes the way they look. |
