Thank you! Yes lets move on :)

You're welcome, Harry! There is one thing you and I have in common: it would take a transfer truck to move our CD collections from location to another. ;) :D

Hope your birthday was a good one for you.

Speak for yourself, MI. Harry's collection is actually stored in a barge, stationed off the coast of the Netherlands. The truck would however be required to transfer his purchases from the last 6-8 months. And rumour has it that once Harry commences the 'digitization' of his collection, he will be renting one of Google's data centres in Europe for storing and streaming the music.

You have no idea how many neighbours heard me laughing out loud, geez, this story made me jump.
Thank you for that my friend, you are right about the barge, and I have indeed rented one data centre from Google, I wonder how did you know? ;D

Dear me.
Harry, you have to stop reading and reacting here, and leave this topic to peace. Otherwise your listening sessions will be ruined by continuous laughter and by eternal thanking for best wishes related to some birthday you once had in the past. ;)

Not to react would not be polite, and frankly I enjoy the laughs quite a bit, laughing is healthy and should be practised on a regular basis, and I gladly deviate from my listening sessions because of it. ;D

I own around 7,000 classical recordings (all on CD). I'm having an incredibly hard time finding space. But I'm loving every minute of it! :D

I probably have somewhere between 5-10% of that, but I'm usually content (and practical (and reasonable (and rational))). 0:)

Well better not say how many I have, that way no one gets seriously hurt. ;D

You can use the hexadecimal system. This way you can shorten the number by at least one digit so people won't get hurt.

I often use different systems to make the numbers look reasonable. For instance, my IQ is 101.





(using the binary system, of course...)
Do what I must do, and let what must happen happen.

Even if I remove one digit, the hurt stays as intensive.  ;D

Today is Vanessa's birthday. Mine was on the 13th. My sister's son's birthday is this weekend. This has been a busy birthday month to be sure!

Now Paul - if that is the binary number chosen, i.e. 101, the decimal value is 5 - can't be, or are you fooling us?  ;) ;D   Dave :)

Honesty and modesty are two qualities that I myself and my culture value the most.  ;D
