Boom Box

I had been converting my cassette tapes to mp3 using my boom box and plugging it into the auxiliary plug on the turntable that was hooked up to the computer. I did a lot of cassettes and then I just had a few left and the tape player on the boom box broke.  So I decided to bring in the old stereo that Barb had gotten me out of someone's garbage when we were in Barrhaven.  It was a cassette player and CD player.  I moved the boom box into the sun room because I could still use it as a radio.  We already have a radio in the kitchen but it is dialed to a station that Barb likes.  I like different music.  So I dialed the boom box to the local alternative station and I play it when Barb is out and I am home alone.  Anyway, I had to unplug the boom box and set up the stereo on my filing cabinet in my office.  However, the plug in the wall was behind the big bookshelf that I use to store my LPs and my Scientific American magazines.  I was fortunate to be able to take out all of my magazines and find the plug behind the bookshelf because there was no back on the bookshelf.   Then unplugged the boom box and pulled the cord out from behind the bookshelf. Then I was able to string the cord of the stereo behind the bookshelf and plug it into the wall.  It worked great and I finished recording the cassettes.  I had over 120 cassettes and I had music on those cassettes that I didn't even know I had and it was some of my favourite music.
