Hendrix sounds like ****, digital.

Does anyone honestly have any idea what that means? I'm sure
Stairflopper doesn't. I'm just curious if anyone else can parse it and
make some sense of it.

Maybe he's not a Hendrix fan. :)

Our family attorney is a big time audiophile with all kinds of early
Marantz, Mac and Sherwood stuff - collects them actually - and once I
took over my prized Derek and The Dominos (autographed) album to play
on his Mac system.

The comparison to what you get off a CD is incredible to say the
least.

Remember the good old days when CD's were paying 16% interest? OTOH
mortgage rates were 18%.

I was lucky enough to move a good percentage of my investments into a
Pacific Life annuity in 2006 that guarantees a minimum return of 6% yet will
pay higher depending if the investment options show a greater return.

I've been smart enough to stay away from annuities.
