First I would like to express my gratitude that there is a full section for posts like these. Now, onto my:
<rant>
Ooookay, so some of you already know that I'm 15 and have a crappy record player and a denon cd player (wrong combo, I know), sooo I've been alternating between both as the denon sometimes makes up for the analogueness of my Ittusb but not always. I came home on the bus from my jewish private school (Lamont Sanford flame in T-20 seconds
) and after the 1.245 hour ride home I was expecting to relax with a rolling stones record. Then I came up to my room and realized it was a disaster zone. As in, more of a disaster zone than usual. I walked inside betwixt the usual clothes on the floor and realized something was missing. I moseyed over to my neat pile of records and cd's and...BAM. Looking down, I saw my record collection in the same state as the band shirts on the floor. My DSOTM was haphazardy lying open on a cheap speaker i used as a footstool. My doors were behind the door. Worse yet, the Beatles cd's that I borrowed from my friend were open. And.....my use your illusion had been used. The cd's were naked on the ground. Well not quite naked--some peanut butter was covering some of the data side. My 5 year old sister had decided to explore my music collection. And she scratched up an old Blood, Sweat, and Tears record that I've never listened to so far (my dad's) so I decided it couldn't hurt anything to try out that vinyl scratching that DJ's do. five minutes into wondering why it didn't sound as cool as the Beastie Boys, my dad informed me that it was horrible for the needle. Oops. And on top of that, now my GnR cd skips on one track so much I'm considering downloading a FLAC and burning a copy, since I already own it.

P.S. My sister is going to be punished...at least as much as you can punish a 5 year old
