Today they were talking classic movies.
My mind went to Now Voyager and a Christmas Carol

They talked Blazin Saddles and Jaws.

I still have two huge floor speakers, a turntable, and a DVD player (along with a VCR.) I don't know if they even work anymore, but I hate to get rid of them. Those speakers were a big investment for me in my very first apartment. Ah, memories!
