For a while I've had a pretty extensive but narrowly-focused collection of multi-player auto cards of former LSU athletes. For the most part that has lent itself to football, but here are some baseball ones I've picked up recently. Will try to get around to posting the whole collection at some point.

Chicago hotel help (with kids) this summer

Posted by josecanseco on 3/13/24 at 9:22 am

Taking the kids to some cubs/white sox games and spending 4-5 nights in Chicago. Any recommendations for a hotel that is kid friendly (cool pool?) and is in a good location with easy access to these areas? The only other thing I know we will do is the Field Museum. I don't have much experience in the city so the amount of options was overwhelming, hoping someone with more expertise can help me out! Bonus points for other fun activities in the city for kids aged 5-11.

What is the preferred Paperwhite to go with? Looking for one but there is a lot to weed through. Looks like after eliminating all the refurb/older models, there's an 8GB, 16, 32 signature edition with the signature edition having "no lock screen ads." Not sure what that means, I've not used one before but my 10 year old has expressed interest in one.

Any recs for a family karaoke machine?

Posted by josecanseco on 11/11/20 at 10:10 am

Apparently Santa is bringing the family a karaoke machine this year. Tons of them online, was hoping to narrow it down. Anyone have any experience with them? Ideally would have two microphones and a display for lyrics. Thanks!

Yes, would like color. And that definitely makes the lasers expensive. Thanks for all the recs!

Everything he said. Also, everything about 12.7.97 but especially the ac dc bag->pyscho killer ->Jesus left Chicago opener.

For official releases, Vegas ‘96, 11.17.97 (awesome 5 song first set), Amsterdam box all great.

Best printer/scanner for home use with laptop?

Posted by josecanseco on 10/21/20 at 6:25 am

I need a printer for my house to use with a MacBook. I assume all or most have wireless capabilities now? Would like scanning capabilities as well. It won’t be any sort of heavy use, mainly school forms, labels, etc. Any and all recs are welcome?

Hard drive to watch movies on TV?

Posted by josecanseco on 7/9/20 at 10:06 pm

Probably a dumb, or at least a noob, question:

I still buy blu ray/dvds for my kids movies, and usually they come up with a digital copy. I download it and it goes to my iTunes and kids can watch on computer. I'd like to have the option to put them all on a hard drive that I can plug into a TV and watch from there (without having to deal with streaming/internet availability). is there something out there that can hold 20 or so movies that I can just leave attached to TV so they can watch from there?

Has anyone here used or know much about ATX Record Players? Apparently they restore vintage cabinets and it seems they also upgrade the sound components as well. Then you sign up to be notified when they have some for sale (there's no on demand ordering, no prices listed, and even the email announcing something for sale doesn't have a price). I read some comments on facebook and it seems like the norm is a few thousand.

I really like the way they look and also the idea of not having to piece together a set up myself. Would love to hear any feedback!
