Today someone gave me a double cassesste tape deck and a big box of cassesstes.
This person didn't need it anymore, ask me if I wanted them.

I said yes, I have cassesstes to listen to.

This cassesste player is really nice, top of the line when new and the person took great care of it.

I am now listening to the Mamas and Papas Greatest Hits.

I don't understand throwing away something this nice.

It is mine now.

I got some great music in the box.

1. A Suggestion... FWIW
Hook that bad boy into your sound card and digitize those songs to .wav files or the like and then encode them to MP3's. It will make a great addition to your library. Now if you want to "clean" them up a bit, thats another story which we can talk about later. I've be xfering LP's and Cassettes for years now from my library and its really nice have a "song list" from yesterday. IFKWIM.

4. This silly person was going to throw it away,
This one records on both decks, auto reverse, the whole thing.

I have a lot of cassesstes, I can now play.

I have a old radio show that John Candy had years ago called Radio Candy.

That was a great radio show.

6. If I pay $400 for something I will keep it until it breaks.
I was always to cheap to buy a tape deck like this.
