It has been a lot of audio damage in this household
lately. A year ago, my wife, for whatever reasons, decided to get a dog, which clearly
violated out prenuptial agreement. I have no idea what was in the head of a
woman who decided to bring Pippa the Dog into the life of Romy the Cat. Do
women in childhood go through a special training where older women teach
younger women after a secretive handshake how to piss off men in their lives?
Psychologists generality suggest that women get dog in case they hate husband. This
explains a lot, but it is what it is…
I do high-end audio all my life and naturally collect unique
performing and recording events. I used to travel a lot and I compiled a box
with ~50 CDs that is my personal portable Ccème de la crème of my collection,
something that I take with me when I travel and something that, for one or
other reasons, is valuable to me personally. Today in crazy world of MP3 and dominating
audio ignorance everything is disposable but in the world of high-end audio it
is not. Many of those CDs were unique, and not replaceable for their sonic or
performance merits. So this morning my dog decided to eat the whole box with
CDs and more than 3/4 of them destroyed permanently. Many of them years out of
print and hardly might be bought for any amount of money or some of them unique
“pressing” the not available any more
What is it? Another note to a diary of an urban man married
with kids? This Dog is my family nowadays and I like her. When my kids
disrespect my prohibition and playing with my turntable, destroying $5,000
cartridge then I upset but not mad as kids were our mutual agreement to bread.
When this dog destroyed my absolutely unique collection of unique recordings I
am in tradition of the "best husband" want to say "I told you
so, honey..." The live is going on…. another snip….
