    Bowling Pin A.jpg Turn out the lights the party's over, let the wild rumpus begin! Today is my first day of retirement, 41 years as a Librarian, 33 years at Henrico County Public Library. What a long, strange, wonderful trip it has been!!

    I just saw this over on the collectors forum and wanted to share it here. RIP Ned Dameron. One of the best and you will be missed.

    I think I would just call these fold-outs. I don't really know if there is a correct name or not. I'd be interested to hear from others as well.

    What do you call books with flaps like these. The two books I have are Heather, The Totality by Matthew Weiner and The Strange Library by Haruki Murakami. I tried searching with various terms and had no results so I am now posting here for an answer.

    I feel like these style of movies have turned straight into CGI fests with little beyond them. Watching the commercial it's like watching a video game with actors faces stuck unto the characters.
    Yeah, I almost fell asleep watching some CGI movie that was nothing but explosions, chases, more explosions...I need a story, not a video game.

    Yes, you can get bluetooth transmitters that plug into headphone jacks and will send bluetooth signals to your speakers.

    I have an older stereo in the house and would love to broadcast what I'm playing inside to the porch with a wireless setup.

    Understood. Likely will be easier to just buy a new stereo.

    Thanks for the reply.

    I have wired speakers on my porch and use this to play music from my devices via bluetooth, not broadcast to bluetooth. Again, sorry.
