A difficult project.

I had what I thought would be a difficult project today before heading into Guitar Center. But it turned out to be pretty easy. Can you guess what it was? Hint: It does not directly involve music or vintage loudspeakers. That said, I had a more difficult project before this one. The glue on my 1989 Koss Pro 4x headphones would not hold. They are my back-up headphones. My main 'phones are Sennheisers. HD-280 Pros, to be specific. I recommend the Sennheisers to anyone involved in recording or even listening to music at their computer. They cost only $100.pair. I'll write more when I am not pooped. Photo (if I can find it) is of my older Koss headphones. Did you have any Big Successes today?

Make a search, it seems that there is a YouTube video that shows how to fix broken headphones using "super glue and baking soda". If I find the link I come back and paste it here.

Your difficult project? Feeding Kitty but being out of cornflakes? No? I don't know.

@BarBaraPrz Corn Flakes sound good too. Maybe I'll buy some more brown sugar as well

@TheHorse just one of my survey sites and we cannot mention them now so all I can say is that I try to do some surveys every morning and the points build up quickly,

No successes here. As Judy said, did you try Super Glue or Gorilla Glue? Have a good day.

Yep, I tried various brands of Super Glue, including Gorilla Glue. It may have been the Gorilla Glue that finally held .

I bought a few gallons at my "closer" station and will fill up when I got for Mexican food. I have been "Jonesing" for a burrito lately.

I had to attend to some event so I'm way behind when it comes to online activities, myLot included. And even my work outs. Guess I won't sleep tonight, I'm pissed. Glad the difficult project ended up being easy. Those headphones are older than me, woah! What do you mean you're pooped?
