purchses that your significant other must not know about.

My problem is not buying them, the problem having them "all over the house" as she puts it (this means tjere is a small corner in the living room with a few basses and amps, and a bin with parts plus cabs and power amps in the hall way. Uh.....OK, come to think of it, there's a pickguard on the mantel piece, some unused effects in the book case, a loose amp tube on the dining room table...... lol.)

I went to pick up my daughter at a friends house - Walk into the house and there is a huge CD/Vinyl collection and pictures of Jazz Greats on the wall. The man who lives there happens to be a the Jazz Professor at the local University.

In the course of our conversation I ask him, "Which do you prefer, vinyl or compact disks?" -

His response, "CDs, they're easier to sneak past my wife".

When I was married, I would not purchase gear without telling my wife but I would pull sneaky tactics like buying a pre-amp and then telling her that the BBE Sonic Maximizer went with it.
