wired for sound

My folks are moving... a long way...
they unloaded their stereo... on me! :D (:o)
It's a Technics setup, the speakers say 75 watts - it's rather nice and boomy. It was purchased likely in the early 80s, and our technophile neighbor helped my dad pick it out.
Right now I have Winamp wired into the Tape In phono jacks, and I'm re-experiencing some of my fave music through a new set of speakers, therefore with a new sound. I have never heard John Scofield's Uberjam so loud in my living room before.

I totally hadn't expected them to donate it to me, but I'm ever so pleased.
in other news, smog days are back, my allergies are acting up. I needed a refill of my Flonase spray inhaler or whatever it is, and because I hadn't realized how old the prescription is, I was told to get a new prescription.   I hate the chokey feeling I get and it will be a relief to get this all over and done with. I only use it on smog days but I'm miserable without it.
