OK, this has absolutely nothing to do with woodworking or the wreck, but I had to share it with someone and the audio groups all officially suck.
Test-riding a new bike yeseterday, when I happened to go past a house which had put out its recycling for pickup the next morning.
On top of the plastic nut buckets (Costco things--recognise 'em a mile away) and the carefully washed tin cans was a chunk of audio gear. Pulled out a shiny, clean, VERY well-kept Marantz 2238B receiver, circa 1978.
Works a treat--not even a burnt out bulb. Hmm. Maybe I'll put it in the shop--that would almost make this an official woodworking gloat.
