So I damaged my back doing stupid things like..... moving and walking... Sometimes bending. I have been in bed for a while. This started 16 days ago so I have been online for 3 days straight. I have been so good not buying any new radios. Not even table tops! 

 Then last night it failed miserably.... 
I was perusing eBay and a Philco popped up with only 3 minutes left. The bid was $50.00 so I threw in a bid and WON! I got it from Willy so I will have to go to the ghetto to pick it up at Greyhound. I don't see that happening with my back. Ill have to bring someone...

This is a model 19 supposedly.

COOOOOL as HECK right?
