I don't know your wifes hobbies or interests, but you gotta find a way to sell her on a trip for something she likes, and include an "oh by the way...."

After we do this & this, eat here, explore there, we are staying here & on this night I want to head over here for 2-3 hours to meet up with some like minded idiots/schiitiots/compadres and hang out for awhile....The next day we can do this, this, or this....

Sell it bud!


Back when RMAF was a thing I had my wife sold on a trip in fall 2020 to RMAF (F covid). Basically we take a trip to colorado, spend a few days seeing the sights together, I was due to get a day or two at RMAf while she got spa time or giggolo time, whatever it took....

It didnt work out, and RMAF is sadly dead, but the premise was solid....

As an aside.... My wife and I have been talking about a trip to Nashville for awhile.... I would suggest the next Schiitmeet take place in the Nashville area instead of Florida. Nashville is within driving distance for many people and flights are also relatively cheap and accessible.... Plus theres lots of cool stuff to do in the area....

Tom Klinkman hosts meets at his house from time to time ... watch the local meets forum for announcements. He lives in Smithville, an hour east of Nashville, and his house overlooks Center Hill Lake. Any new plans for a get together, @kilkil?

Go easy on the politics and divisiveness please. I knew 3 people that died from Covid and several who are experiencing debilitating long-Covid symptoms. My brother is an emergency room physician. He can set you very straight on that "Covid" nonsense. I'll get off my soap box now.

+100. Remember AudioGal?

It has REALLY affected MY life, ergo it is NOT politics. You are not on a soap box. Neither am I. Thanks!

Smithville is the home of https://www.evinsmill.com/, a favorite resort. I would much rather be in that part of Tennessee.

It's nice, and I think Tom has a boat moored there.
Nashville is still good for a tour of the Ryman and the Country Music HOF, for the newbies. That's about all ...

I do remember. I PM'd her a couple times with no response. I hope she is alright!

I have been to Memphis. At night. It is..."different". I recall something called "dry rub" (I think) BBQ. It had a
"different" texture.

I do. I hope she's OK. She's been MIA for quite some time and as far as I know no one here has heard from her.

Correct. She left Head-Fi.

She has been in my thoughts since my return here and her departure makes her all the more so.

Correct. She left Head-Fi.

I am sorry that she has long-Covid and hope she recovers. I know the stress of this place can be high for those not in good health.

However perhaps there's a new entry for the Schiit sine wave: "get fed up and leave Head-Fi?"

Next get together, I'm thinking about mid-March. It has been many years since I've had an official Schiit meet (I think 2018, Schitt sent a bunch of equipment and a rep). Unofficially there has always been a Yggy and usually some amps at the meets.

I generally try to donate a few door prizes and I may be able to attend. I could possibly bring an amp of my own design, maybe a Freya plus, etc.

Sounds excellent.

I officially made a meet thread for March 16th:

Looks very tidy! Also... are those Iron Maiden cookies in the back?
