August 9

What a deal! We have a Bose Lifestyle 12 system that we bought in 1994. The thing still works but the remote quit and those things are pretty expensive. Anyway Glenda found in the Jeff City paper on-line edition, the same model system for sale. We called then went up after it yesterday afternoon. Only paid 9 percent of what ours cost in 94 and the thing works beautifully as does the remote. The cost of a new remote is more than half of what we paid for the complete system.

After I hooked it up I used the remote to get it to play a CD but the music wasn't at all what I thought was on the CD. It took awhile to discover our old system downstairs was the one playing and our newer purchase wasn't working. That is a far reaching remote to be able to activate the system downstairs. I went down and unplugged that system then went back to work on the newer one. Yippee escaped from my lips after only 20 minutes when the sweet little thing began working. I typed it as sweet thing now but it went through a heck of a bunch of other names before it got there. Some of the names shouldn't be typed so I won't. Sad part is I have no idea what was wrong nor what I did to correct the problem. Maybe it just got tired of all the names.
