Crapitol carts
I've errands to run and meetings to attend, but I did uncork a Captiol
("Crapitol") "The Music Tape" this morning, and I must say...they are the NOISIEST carts I've ever heard! Not tape, but mechanically..."clunk clunk clunk clunk." I've had some Crapitol prerecords that are similarly noisy. This an axiom for Crapitols? Tape performance sounded so-so, but I didn't look that close at any parameters yet. Noodles probably LOVES them. Are "The Music Tape" carts the same as the "pretty fruit" (a misnomer...mushroom's aren't a fruit, they're a fungus. Consult: "Call Any Vegetable...") things that people collect for the wrappers? Apples are fruit...got one of those...and the fungus...and some peas, but peas are vegetables. I think there are some trackers who are obsessed with the "produce collection," so I should simply donate them. Those guys in the record stack building over on Vine St. must've been smoking some WEIRD stuff when they hatched THIS ad campaign! Hopefully they didn't smoke that crap too long; otherwise, they'd turn out like Noodles in their old age. Funny how I never noticed the "produce carts" when they were a big deal, because I'd just dismiss anything to do with 8 track entirely. dB |

Hey Desert Bob!
I'm looking for the Peas & The Grapes. Hit me off line and see if we can work out sumthin' The "Crapitols" had a problem with the tape platter as it was a "softer" plastic and more prone to heat warpage. The earlier Capitols (or Audiopak) had a different tape formulation and does have a difference in tape quality. All solid plastic in those baby's! PEACE! Dan DeserTBoB wrote in message . ..

I've got the Grapes still sealed if dB doesn't have one to trade.

**Say, How does a Scotch Classic (Ferra-Chrome) cart for the Peas
sound? **Sealed Grapes** Too much temptation to open - I may be a collector, but not a "Die Hard". I would prefer an open Grape, but then again, I'm not picky :-) Use the contact email in the header to get a hold of me and work out details if interested. I do have a Sealed Scotch Dynarange. PEACE!

I haven't heard anything from the other fellow about the "Peas". I
should be seeing in the mail before too long a sealed "Grapes" from Bluemuse. If ya have a spare "peas", then you have my attention. PEACE! Dan Daniel & Kathy Gibson wrote in message ...

Kinda dry and powdery -- almost a silicone texture with a hint of
Poly-sty-reene and a dash of metal flakes --- Corn flakes taste much better tho! Dan DeserTBoB wrote in message . .. How do these things taste, anyway? dB |
