i spent about $200 on 17 kurt vonnegut books

 

 

player piano

the sirens of titan

mother night

cat's cradle

god bless you, mr. rosewater; or, pearls before swine

welcome to the monkey house

slaughterhouse-five; or, the children's crusade: a duty-dance with death

breakfast of champions; or, goodbye blue monday!

slapstick; or, lonesome no more!

jailbird

deadeye dick

galápagos: a novel

bluebeard, the autobiography of rabo karabekian (1916-1988)

hocus pocus

timequake

bagombo snuff box

look at the birdie

 

 

these are all individual editions; paperbacks except for look at the birdie... i wanted a box set but i never could find one

i also considered twilight zone: the complete definitive collection for about $160 but i don't want to spend all my $ now

just since i have uni covered with a grand or so to spare i am going to more concerts and buying things i have wanted

what's been your most expensive recent purchase? do you chronically spend liberally or was it just a special occasion?

I just spent about $380 on a new cartridge for the turntable... Ortofon 2M Bronze... comes in the mail tomorrow.

 

jesus christ thats an expensive cartridge, better sound prestine

 

I spent $360 on my last truck, bought a $1800 96' Volkswagen Jetta Trek with 105k on it, not really the most aesthetically relevant car for me but its in great condition.

i got these pants. they're useful for carrying a lot of shit around at once but they don't feel as durable as my carhartts. i wear my clothes to death and that happens a lot faster than i would like these days.

I'm going to buy a Mac Pro, which at it's cheapest will run me $2800 bare minimum, and that's without non-Apple Care insurance. That's why I've been posting via iPod for the last several weeks. :cisfor:

pacific kits ain't bad starters, if you get good heads, learn how to properly mute your drums and tune them like a mad scientist you can definitely make a decent super cheap kit sound purty tasty
