We're all clearly delusional if we believe we can pick up girls by saying we restore vintage TVs - watch their eyes glaze over, bored to tears, as you relate to replacing capacitors, checking tubes, etc.

My wife thinks my restoration hobby is hot...for some reason she always rolls her eyes right after saying that though .

Does she have a sister? BTW, I here in Pittsburgh too, I just dabble a little in TV's when I need to, but I like to read as well as look here to absorb the knowledge in case when I dive into things. I'm into amateur radio too.

In a way, it would be like having a woman that knitted with plastic canvas. Pretty soon the crap takes over the whole house
