    If the Dems have 56 Senate seats, only four GOP senators would need to vote their conscience.

Tariff Test (Final)

Zollfrei Aus Deutschland! (Duty-free from Germany!)

I’m surprised to see that Thakker has the discontinued Ortofon Super OM 20 in stock, and at a very good price.

With its nude (solid) diamond stylus, the Super OM 20 is my best, and favorite, cartridge.

Tariff Test (Cont.)

The package made it through customs and is on its way via regular snail mail. Whew! Now the question is, will there be payment due upon delivery? I don’t know if the 10% tariff is applied to retail sales as well as regular imported goods.

Another Tariff Test Update

This screen shot shows the progress of my Thakker turntable belt shipment from Germany. After an initial hitch, the package has made its way to the United States. Will the customs clearance process result in a 10% tariff, payable upon delivery?

Fifth Floor Fears

My cancer check-up last week was on the 5th floor of this hospital, although not near the maternal care unit.
