Awesome! I just bought the Bose 251 Outdoor speakers last week. Should be arriving here today.

Let me know what you think of those. I have heard mixed reviews on the Bose...good out weighing the bad.
I had the same Klipsch speakers at another home. I also have four rocks that are the same internals. They sound great. I find they do but with 100w or more. I can not believe I got them for $350. They are $650 anywhere you look.

I guess I haven't technically bought it yet....

But I just placed an order for an M3 6mt. I know I know... you all think it's hideous. But I love it.

Individual Oxford Green II metallic with full tartufo interior.

Now the 8 month (or more because of Russia and other things) wait begins...

One of those times where a Social Media feed advertisement prompted me to purchase. It did not disappoint in the least bit. This stuff is quite addictive...

No, not yet. I'm not sure I want to go that far. My main thing with this is to be able to monitor the doors, locks, and lights when we're away and we have the pet sitter coming by every day. I like being able to see all sides of my house and to turn lights on or off as needed. And if the pet sitter neglects to lock a door, I'll be able to do that. I bought a new iPad and an app that lets you develop your own HomeKit interface, so that's my next goal, just to keep my techie side proficient.

Today I was riding on my smart trainer and using Fulgaz on an Apple TV. When Wifey got home, a notification popped-up in the TV saying the garage door was opening. That was pretty cool.

I've looked forward to this for years.

As I dropped my daughter off to school this morning.. I went to best buy, only to realize they don't open till 11am

After a day of meetings and having to pick my cousin up from the airport, I also realized Best Buy closes at 7pm (who the hell closes at 7pm on a Friday). By now I had 30 minutes to make a 40 minute drive.

I was in the X5, which isn't fitted with a radar detector. I drove like a bat out of hell, risking it all. Didn't even bother to park the car, just pulled up in front of the store, left the car there and made a run for it.

A store employee is literally closing the gate as I run up to it. He was cool.... so he let me through. Finally the game was mine.

I guess I could have waited till tomorrow... but these assholes don't open till 11 and I wake up very early (yes even on Saturdays).

Now hopefully the game is as exciting as the adventure I had getting to the store in time....
