It Finally Happened
Maybe it's a bit ironic that it would happen on Memorial Day
It is definitely not a serious as the subject why we commemorate this holiday
My original cassette of Metallica - Ride The Lightning is officially DEAD
After about 19 years, and God knows how many plays ... probably close to a few thousand, it died today
It is close to totally demagnetized, the case is about as beat up as all get out, I'm gonna keep it just because ... but it can't play real good anymore ... it sounds underwater and soft
The thing is, I can't find my CD of Ride the Lightning ... hmmm, sounds like a Circuit City trip to me unless I find my CD quick
Yes, not a major crisis, but this tape basically accompanied me on most of my bustrips to and from high school everyday ... so it's mostly the sentimental value that really makes this a bit of a sad moment for me
