My three most recent stunts:

1. Bringing home a late '60's Magnavox Astro-Sonic console stereo in a somewhat beat up cabinet because the price was only $10. Now, I need this like I need a hole in the head; but, it would have gone to the dump otherwise. I hope to at least be able to fix it and pass it along to someone if I can't cram it somewhere.

2. 1949 Amdiral TV/radio/phono combo. It cost me $125; but, round CRT B&W's are almost unheard of in my area. And, I've finally found a TV of that viintage that has some hope of working again.

3. An RCA 98K2 console radio from '39. It was only $45; so, I couldn't let it stay at the flea market.

Now, I'm going to have to let a Zenith CCII console and an RCA XL100 console go to make room for the new toys. I've already donated a half dozen beat up console radios to the SA over the last few weeks in an effort to make room.

I probably won't be buying much during April because State Farm will be getting my "play money" for insurance premiums.
