    Thanks for the site recommendation. Did you see the post showing a dog house with a garden box on the roof? Hmm, catnip, anyone?

    Growing up with records/LPs there is no way I could set a table like that. We had to carefully hold the discs so as not to get our fingerprints on them. Scratches were as close to a sin as we got. Using them as charges? I would need therapy. Old habbits die hard.
