I recently decided to keep a lot of records

To start I got "Saturday Night Fever" soundtrack

"Soul Makossa"

"Funkytown"

Purchased a new record player with vertical tilt. Also bluetooth, usb port and stereo jacks for surround capabilities



Demonstrated to my 8 year old grandson how it works. Within 30 seconds I discovered my Funkytown had a scratch

"Take me down to... Funky
Take me down to... Funky
Take me down to... Funky
Take me down to... Funky"

Grandson laughing hysterically at scratched record. "Grandpa, I can't understand how you could ever have dealt with anything like that. Terrible!"

He insisted on watching Youtube instead

Puts on video and after 30 seconds the image freezes, then jitteringly skips a few frames forward at a time accompanied by the word
"Downloading
Downloading
Downloading
Downloading"

I laughed and said "I dont see how you can possibly deal with that. Terrible!"

Turning to me, my grandson says "what's the matter Grandpa?"

"Never mind," I replied
For Whom the bus tolls; The bus tolls for thee
