Yeah , yeah, whatever ....

But they have to reopen Harrisburg to get enough power for the tube, though. $)

Still available, too:

Socket is probably worth half as much as the tube $)

LOVE tubes - dare you to find a transistor capable of class-C AND linear AND modulator service >100W. Nay, make that above 50 watts [:)
(while a MOSFET may be able to, you need special drivers to handle that half-a-farad gate capacitance (lol) )

Or is it just a Tamco Soundwagon from the 1970's with wood sides and a cheap Bluetooth transmitter.

As one who is a business partner in a record store, I can't think of the slightest market for that. Get a Crosley Cruiser instead for the same price (sick)

It's a wonder someone hasn't made one to look like their male member.

Well, if Jamaica can have a bobsled team, Somalia having a hockey team isn't that odd ;)

When I looked at some highlights from the games, I saw that the guys could skate. All of them are from Sweden and have been trained by expert Swedish coaches.
On the other hand, field hockey is no big international game and the world champions use to be either Sweden, Finland and Russia.

Didn't the Jamaicans succeed pretty good in the steep slopes?

They made their debut in Calgary and hung around the 30th place since:
