romy, a patient and fellow vinyl lover, announced that his balikbayan box of analogue goodies has arrived. and in it are two brand new usb turntables. 
but he will be too busy for the whole month and asked if i was interested in trying one out. he needn't ask, actually. i had to warn him that he was lending at his own risk because i might have a tough time returning. well, that afternoon i got the box still sealed and smelling new.
and as soon my last patient walked out the door, i started installing. it was up and running in just a few minutes. and, a whole album of benny goodman was converted to mp3 in less than an hour. it takes me twice the time and three stages to do that with the set-up that i have.
and the music sounded great on my ipod. and romy is not selling. i can have it for a month, he texted.
