The 50 Plus Cafe, Pub, All-Nite Greasy Spoon and Dive Bar

I didn't take it as judging... we've had the "what's tomato gravy" question before.

Midwest here... never heard red sauce called gravy.
But @Wonderer67 and some others are East Coast and have edumacated us.

He even shared a recipe:
@Wonderer67 's never fail recipe for gravy/marinara sauce/sketti sauce

several spoonies have made his recipe - or one of their own - and "gravy" is mentioned often at the Cafe

I've heard of Red Eye Gravy and know enough that it's different... but have never had it and will be looking it up once I post this.

Lots of food talk - I'm always learning something new about food and cooking here.


I'ma make some Wonderer gravy later, if I don't die from shoveling shit outside.
 
Maybe cold solder joints. Pretty common in this older stuff. If you can see the bottom of the circuit boards, look for any cracks or other issues around pins of components going into the circuit boards.

Usually bigger components with larger leads.

I would really consider changing the caps too.

But if sound does come out of it, even intermittently, that's a good sign. Nothing major has failed.
It totally plays. And plays well most of the time. Sometimes the audio will be super quiet…

When it does that, I jiggle around one of the fuses and it typically kicks back in. It would be cool to have someone refurbish it tho.
 
I thought this was from the Soviet sniper in World War II in Stalingrad… who shot his nemesis through the scope…
Vasiley Zietsev and... sorry, I cant remember the nazi... I dont think he shot through the scope, i thought the reflection on the scope was what drew his aim.

"Enemy at the Gates" was the movie
 
Morning OM (glad you’re back safely), Wat, Wonderer and Sub. The denizens are busy this morning.

The cold and snow knocked out schools and the salt does not work. Grandpa taxi is idled this morning!

Cabin fever is for 💩

Major Konig. Likely as not, that whole story was a lovely tale for the home front as perpetrated/told/made-up by the propaganda ministry.

Lyudmila Pavlichenko had a similar duel. Oddly, I believe hers.

To borrow a quote from a movie, "no, I dont own a video camera. I'd rather remember things the way I remember them. Not the way they happened."

Konig... yeah, Zietsev v Konig was a perfect story book kind of thing. They even comment about that in the movie
