@labellyy I don't think he does it anymore to be funny. Once you've committed to something, you've got to see it through, until you've been committed that is...
@cengland0 you need to get meh to be creative for speaker dock Friday. Maybe a boating dock that's made of speakers? Or dockers pants with built in speakers in the crotch? Or a speaker that also takes your blood pressure and refuses to write you a prescription for pain pills because you ask for them every single week and he's not stupid(speaker doc)? Get on it...
@cengland0 Technically it's not a speaker dock though, there is no docking to it. Unless it's now Speaker/Dock Friday. So I guess you're off the hook on this one.
I reload the page at 10 to see you sold over 3400 of these in less than a minute (1 clicked meh) .... why? How? I find it hard to believe that many people have been chomping at the bit for yet another bluetooth speaker
@ManBehindThePla I really hate that I now I know a word existed that means almost the exact same thing as chomp, and is spelled almost the same way ... with the caveat of it also being ambiguous because it is a noun that means winner in modern American English. Split the difference and call it chumping, since bluetooth speakers are for chumps?
@Moose Thanks for the update Moose. It's nice being able to go back and look at the historical data, but there's other ways to get at that stuff I suppose. Great work on the fixing the site, I haven't had any issues in almost a week.
These will be perfect for the beach (PC) next summer. In for 2 Crimson Red (ROLL TIDE!!) Yes, I'm a GA girl who loves Bama. The shame!! I'll just go crawl into my critical-profuse-hole
No Georgia Tech White and Gold so meh. BTW, lolduke. Thanks for making my Yellow Jackets the sacrificial lambs of the ACCCG. Now I have to think about driving up to Charlotte in a couple weeks.
Looking at reviews on Amazon - be careful with the port to charge as apparently it is easy to break it (looks like it gets shoved inside the speaker so you can't get at it). Also you apparently can't send to two speakers to get stereo, you can only do that with the trio speakers they make. People seem to like the sound though.
@dsantillan So it's $2.01 cheaper but have you ever experienced a BF event? They probably have 1 unit in stock and you cannot get rain checks or substitutions and you will be fighting a million other people when the store opens for the single unit that they have.
@cengland0 I have experienced Black Friday. I have even experienced Black Friday at Meijer. I would say that a typical Black Friday is no more maddening than trying to buy that Fuku bag last week when a million people were trying to get a thousand bags.
@cengland0 btw...I did buy the BEM speaker the previous time. As expected, sound quality is decent at highs and mids but lacks at lows. Battery life stinks and it cuts out if you're further than 20 feet.
@dsantillan No comparison. Fuku - sure, it was click, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait ... and do other stuff while waiting. Black Friday, it's get dressed, drive over to the store, wait in line, deal with crowds getting in through the door, deal with crowds getting through the aisles, deal with crowds getting the item (if there are any still available), deal with crowds getting back through the store to check out, and then wait, wait, wait, and wait some more in line to checkout and pay. Did I mention you have to get dressed?
Costco has the newer model that comes with a contact charging base for $40, this apparently fixes the micro usb connection issues. Also, one great thing about this device, it has an audio out as well as audio in. This means you can connect a more powerful set of speakers to this device and stream content to them via bluetooth. I have one of these, have tried it, it works great!
@moonman The fact that it has an out as well is making me consider buying this for use in the car. It's basically a cheap way to add bluetooth audio connectivity to a car with an aux-in but no bluetooth. Edit: Hmm...I wonder if you can mute the speaker and still have it pass the audio through to the out.
I have one of these in black that I bought at Costco last year. I sometimes connect it to an AV receiver that feeds my whole house audio system and stream to it from tablets and smartphones. As I recall the built in speaker shuts off when you plug a cable into the output jack. I wouldn't get one of these to use this feature exclusively in a car due to the size.
@Jawe Replying to myself after researching further - the speaker is muted when headphones/something else is connected to the aux-out, so this looks to be a GO if you want to give your car stereo Bluetooth connectivity if it has an aux-in but no Bluetooth currently.
@Jawe correct, unlike a previously sold similar item (x-mini) these default to emitting no sound when in bluetooth dongle mode. Actually that's all they'll do. It's the mode you'd want for the car, but it does preclude doing dumb things like linking 20 of them together.
@snapster Now weighing whether to buy one and just hot-glue the micro-usb cable into the charging port to eliminate that failure point. Thanks for confirming.
@Cinoclav I was going to but the reviews for those are so hit-or-miss, and with this (for about the same price) I'd have a BT speaker to take out and use as a speaker whenever.
lots of comments, not many on topic. i got these last time. they are kinda neat. cheap. but battery life and BT range sucks. phone needs to be within 1-2 feet of the speaker. otherwise i keep it always plugged in and it seems to work OK.
jrwofuga gets a write-up, and they make sure his color exists. Wolverine Maize is an option, but nothing for my Michigan State Spartans, come on @cengland0, you ruined my entire day with this awful speaker deal
@pjveltri My day is ruined too. After you buy one meh bluetooth speaker, how many more do you need? I will be shocked if they sell out of this deal so I fear it will show up again in the future to be even more mediocre.
I got this the last time they were sold. One thing to note is some of the colors repeat themselves. You may want to compare the colors on Amazon as some of the colors repeat themselves. Don't worry about the school names. It's just a color gimmick. I went with Wisconsin last time but the red is the same as some of the other reds. Also, there's no school information or logos on the speaker so it's doesn't matter if you choose a similar color.
The sound is okay. I mean, it's not nearly as great as a bigger speaker but it does the job. I use it when I take a shower or do the dishes.
The range depends on your source and your surroundings but I can generally go 10-20 feet before I start having signal issues. But, that's where I live so your mileage may vary.
@Jawe "Jeff's new bluetooth speaker took watching porn on his phone to the next level. Within hours he was unemployed, standing in a white room, and miming the moans in every video he watched."
@Jawe and suddenly the cube started to float freely in the air, but try as he might, Chad just couldn't move it. He would be forever perplexed by the mysteries of the BEM Bluetooth Speaker.
@Jawe@snapster C'mon guys! Best caption for this dude that's way too into bluetooth speakers and "placing them where he likes" by 3:00pm Eastern time gets 2 (of probably the worst colors).
@jawe "Here's the stool sample you asked for, doc. Yeah, I've never seen a square green one either. You think I've been playing too much mobile Minecraft?"
@VeeDubTDI I'd totally 'star' you for that, but y'know - that would be self defeating! :) Btw, in case anyone wondered, it IS the same green as the speaker.
@JonT I'd certainly appreciate that. I truly don't want to sound like a jerk, but that was obviously not a 'last minute push' but most definitely 'last minute cheating.' He was at 4 stars for a long, long time and magically the only person to get 4 more stars in the final 2 or 3 minutes was him? Just not cool. If you're able to see who starred him, I'd wager today's paycheck there are quite a few brand new accounts at the end there. And thank you btw for the appreciation for my green Barney. :)
@JonT Oh, may I also suggest in the future if you have a similar contest, don't give out a specific end time. Keep it to yourself and let the winner know when it hits. It just opens it up for exactly what happened today.
@Cinoclav I linked a few friends to my photoshop around 2:30pm, but I can't say for sure if they voted me up or not. I don't think they're mehmbers and I doubt they would've registered just to vote me up. I didn't think the photoshop was the reason I won anyways, since it wasn't a caption.
@jawe I just tried it... If you try to click a star it automatically brings up the login screen. It won't register the vote without it. Whatever... Enjoy the prize.
@Cinoclav I'm happy to split the prize with you if you feel bad about it and Meh is willing to ship to two places. I didn't think our photoshops were even part of the competition.
@medz Curse you to the innermost seventh ring of hell, and with no lubricants. It's gonna take me approximately forever to get that damn earworm gone. If "Vatican Rag" doesn't work, I'll have to resort to the thermonuclear weapon option, and I really do not want to go there. Oh, and @cengland0 can share the blame, but not much of it.
@Cinoclav Good call on the idea of not revealing when the contests end. Even more reason to get you a prize of your own, don't doubt it - you're getting one.
This is your mea culpa? Granted, the fools at BEM shoulder a lot of the blame. Arkansas red instead of Georgia Red? What?! Who made that call? What marketing guru decided that was a good idea? Surely he/she/they have lost their job for this lamentable debacle. . . And if not, heads should ROLL in Woodstock, IL.
But Meh. Meh Meh Meh Meh Meh. You're better than this. Passing the blame on to BEM? Why do business with this company, a business either A) run by group of monkeys that dress like people or B) is chock full of old school Communists hell-bent on destroying our way off life? Either way Meh, you can't bury your head in the sand and pass the buck on this. No. This will not abide.
Your color scheme in the front was nice. You're making strides. But go the whole 9 yards. Make this right. Georgia Red. You can do it. I believe in you.
Kudos to the person who Wikipedia-ed the Sugar Bowl. Terry Hoage was a beast.
@jrwofuga I think you're deflecting the blame here. The story clearly states that the very first time you decried us for not having your beloved Georgia Red, we actually did have it...it was merely mislabeled. I think the fault lays with you, good sir. If you were truly such a lover of Georgia Red...wouldn't you have recognized that the ‘Arkansas Red’ was actually Georgia Red in disguise?

@mediocrebot I love purple.
Dock! Looks expensive at $50, at $15 maybe decent? I mean, what speaker dock isn't in this price range here on Meh lately?
NO Georgia Red for you!
@Stallion I love purple.
@Barney you're gonna be busy in this thread.
how do people still find this funny....
@labellyy Maybe it bothers you more than it should.
@labellyy because it IS!
@labellyy I don't think he does it anymore to be funny. Once you've committed to something, you've got to see it through, until you've been committed that is...
Meh?
No purple? :-(
@heartny They don't love @Barney.
@Alien88 I love purple.
sold out....^^
OMG, I am going to be blamed for another speaker dock Friday! Dang.
@cengland0 Damn you. Meh gets no money from me tonight and it's all your fault.
Thanks @cengland0. Just what we needed, more speaker docs. On Friday.
@cengland0 Bro, WTF! Be King and get them to do something DIFFERENT on Friday for a change! Let everyone know who's boss!
@cengland0 lame goat
@cengland0 you need to get meh to be creative for speaker dock Friday. Maybe a boating dock that's made of speakers? Or dockers pants with built in speakers in the crotch? Or a speaker that also takes your blood pressure and refuses to write you a prescription for pain pills because you ask for them every single week and he's not stupid(speaker doc)? Get on it...
@TimePollution That's a good idea. Dockers Friday.
@cengland0 Technically it's not a speaker dock though, there is no docking to it. Unless it's now Speaker/Dock Friday. So I guess you're off the hook on this one.
Sold out of Georgia Red. Meh.
@PurplePawprints It never was available.......lol
@Stallion I know that. That's how the joke started. I was referring to the pic they put up.
@PurplePawprints I love purple.
@PurplePawprints They sold out of Pumpkin...
@PurplePawprints I figured. I just realized something, you and @Barney have something in common......I'm just not sure what.
@Stallion Dinosaurs?
Same price as before too. Great for podcasts when you're in the shower, but music is pretty, well, meh.
Ewww, Georgia Red.
I love purple.
6 hours? No thanks.
I reload the page at 10 to see you sold over 3400 of these in less than a minute (1 clicked meh) .... why? How? I find it hard to believe that many people have been chomping at the bit for yet another bluetooth speaker
@giroro When you refresh during the rollover you get the previous day's data and the new day's item sometimes.
@molfsontan .. Yup.. just now I checked.. 66 sold. I was fooled the other day on that but the second refresh showed the truth.
@giroro Champing, not chomping....
@ManBehindThePla I really hate that I now I know a word existed that means almost the exact same thing as chomp, and is spelled almost the same way ... with the caveat of it also being ambiguous because it is a noun that means winner in modern American English. Split the difference and call it chumping, since bluetooth speakers are for chumps?
MEH-WAAAA!!!
IT'S THE GEORGIA RED EATER OF ALL THINGS GEORGIA RED!!! Run for your lives!!!!
I love purple.
On an unrelated note, did they take away the ability to go back and look at previous month's deals?
@neuromancer Turns out that was a part of why the site had been crashing lately, so the calendar was disabled while it gets fixed.
@Moose - Given a choice, I prefer page loading to historic faces. Glad you found (and fixed) the problem!
@neuromancer you can still click "deals" from the main forum page and see the last 100 right now
@Moose Thanks for the update Moose. It's nice being able to go back and look at the historical data, but there's other ways to get at that stuff I suppose. Great work on the fixing the site, I haven't had any issues in almost a week.
This meh speaker marks my 99th meh. What piece of meh will put me at 100 tomorrow? Give me something good (terrible)!
@kyanostiger - 99! Thanks for keeping meh in business for the rest of us!
@KDemo Oh I didn't -buy- 99 things. Just clicked the meh button that many times!
@kyanostiger - Ah, for a moment there, I thought you were the epitome of disposable income. LOL.
@kyanostiger Rest assured we will try our best to disappoint you.
@kyanostiger you've got 99 problems, but meh.
NOOOOO!! GEORGIA RED!! For that alone, Meh. For that alone.
I love purple.
meh'd all the way home
These will be perfect for the beach (PC) next summer. In for 2 Crimson Red (ROLL TIDE!!) Yes, I'm a GA girl who loves Bama. The shame!! I'll just go crawl into my critical-profuse-hole
I love purple.
No Georgia Tech White and Gold so meh. BTW, lolduke. Thanks for making my Yellow Jackets the sacrificial lambs of the ACCCG. Now I have to think about driving up to Charlotte in a couple weeks.
I love purple.
@Shamburglar THWg! I'm still deciding whether I can make it to Charlotte.
No cardinals red? No thank you.
Yes, I know that's not a college team but. Period. I'm in St. Louis. I need cardinal red.
@silverqueen I love purple.
Looking at reviews on Amazon - be careful with the port to charge as apparently it is easy to break it (looks like it gets shoved inside the speaker so you can't get at it). Also you apparently can't send to two speakers to get stereo, you can only do that with the trio speakers they make. People seem to like the sound though.
@Kidsandliz do you think someone could open the case and reinforce the connector with glue?
@ballpark I have no clue...
@ballpark knife-saw is for opening
Wait a week and get it for $12.99 at Meijer on Black Friday.
https://blackfriday.com/stores/meijer/flyers/black-friday/page-29
@dsantillan So it's $2.01 cheaper but have you ever experienced a BF event? They probably have 1 unit in stock and you cannot get rain checks or substitutions and you will be fighting a million other people when the store opens for the single unit that they have.
@cengland0 and whose fault is that???
@cengland0 I have experienced Black Friday. I have even experienced Black Friday at Meijer. I would say that a typical Black Friday is no more maddening than trying to buy that Fuku bag last week when a million people were trying to get a thousand bags.
@cengland0 btw...I did buy the BEM speaker the previous time. As expected, sound quality is decent at highs and mids but lacks at lows. Battery life stinks and it cuts out if you're further than 20 feet.

@Cinoclav I was going to but the reviews for those are so hit-or-miss, and with this (for about the same price) I'd have a BT speaker to take out and use as a speaker whenever.
@snapster Any chance the x-minis are coming back?
@neuromancer we cleared out all they had. what a great deal eh? :)
@snapster Yeah it's amazing how handy they are. I use mine more than I thought I would.
@snapster @neuromancer I agree. I've got the x-kai's scattered all over the place and have been extremely pleased.
http://www.speakerdocks.net Thanks @cengland0
Though to be fair, it's not actually a dock.
@JazzyJosh do not be fair to @cengland0
@unixrab That's right, you never give anything good a fair chance.
@cengland0 not goats... never. ESPECIALLY Scapegoats. .. cry me a river.
I almost want to buy one just because you don't have Georgia Red...
I love purple.
My friend got this in his fuku... Says the sound is good.
I like 7 bluetooth speakers and I still have no use for them. I am a sad and lonely person and have not friends so I simply use my head phones.
@willismarc are any waterproof? i'll take one off your hands.
@roqbthepirate nah they are all junk. Some are from tradeshows and some I bought but none of them are any good.
Go Illini!
(I'm perhap the only person who said that since the late 90s.)
또 샀어요 ㅋ 반가워요~ (저 sherryblue 입니다 ㅋㅋㅋ)
@exart7 @Barney 보라색 사랑
@exart7 올만이에요~
안사줘 사줄생각없어 빨리돌아가
Nope. Don't even wanna buy it. Go away.
lots of comments, not many on topic.
i got these last time. they are kinda neat. cheap. but battery life and BT range sucks. phone needs to be within 1-2 feet of the speaker. otherwise i keep it always plugged in and it seems to work OK.
@username haven't seen similar complaints - I wonder if you have a unit with some overall power problem.
I need me some Crusader Grey..........
I love purple.
Been on a meh streak and not just cuz I like pressing the button.
jrwofuga gets a write-up, and they make sure his color exists. Wolverine Maize is an option, but nothing for my Michigan State Spartans, come on @cengland0, you ruined my entire day with this awful speaker deal
@pjveltri My day is ruined too. After you buy one meh bluetooth speaker, how many more do you need? I will be shocked if they sell out of this deal so I fear it will show up again in the future to be even more mediocre.
I love purple.
Need new 'ugh' button alongside 'meh'
@Gaboose I'll mark this as a request for us to sell mugs.
@snapster I would totally buy a $5 Meh mug if it was being sold on Meh
@TheProfileth second request noted.. we'll start looking for some Mehughs
@snapster Don't forget, they have to be IrkMehughs.
@Cinoclav I'd buy an IRKMEHUGH!
I need to avoid this, my kids are at Georgia, I went to Florida, my wife went to LSU and works at Georgia Tech.
No PMS 186 C? take that @Barney
@RedHot Starred for the effort you put in there.
@snapster Let's not go there again: https://meh.com/forum/topics/life-gear-tactical-led-flashlight-set#53fd5984f527e4dc0b150795
Gratutious mention of color here so I can get a comment from you-know-who. Red!
@DeuceSevin I think we have a holder of a novelty account impersonating a bot here. Not as much fun. (and sadly he's no shitty_watercolour)
@DeuceSevin @snapster I love purple.
@snapster Barney is not a pretend bot. Barney really loves purple. Yes, I am a member of BFF (Barney's Friends Forever) and I'm damn proud of it.
@DeuceSevin Voldemort!
I got this the last time they were sold. One thing to note is some of the colors repeat themselves. You may want to compare the colors on Amazon as some of the colors repeat themselves.

The sound is okay. I mean, it's not nearly as great as a bigger speaker but it does the job. I use it when I take a shower or do the dishes.
The range depends on your source and your surroundings but I can generally go 10-20 feet before I start having signal issues. But, that's where I live so your mileage may vary.
@alpine Do any of the colors repeat themselves?
@cengland0 I tried editing that out but the edit button has disappeared for me.
@alpine you could try editing that out, but I bet the edit button has disappeared for you.
Does this sound better than a iPad built in speaker?
@ballpark must be a trick question? It'd be pretty funny if the answer was no.
reviews on amazon talk about a design flaw that causes the charging port to break. use caution.
i hope to see a waterproof speaker here soon!
Does it come in don't-give-a-fuck grey?
@PocketBrain we were not allotted any community college colors
@snapster boom roasted
I love purple.
Anybody know how this would fair in a humid environment? Need me some shower tunes.
@DanTheManimal Works fine for me when I'm in the shower.
The crimson red is too light and almost looks like there's a pink hint to it... Meh
@TheBear I have the red and it is not at all pinkish.
I love purple.
Guys, I'd think hard before purchasing. This man was evidently struck blind by this speaker. (image from Amazon's product page for this item)
Look at his angry, confused face. Is that worth $15 (+ $5)?
@Jawe we need a caption contest. @JonT you should give away a set to the best voted caption below.
"WTF So I can't dock my phone on this!?"
@Jawe Well, yes - as a present for a few people I know.
@Jawe @snapster Dude! The low sub-sonics are awesome! But they make you have to shit!! Listen!!!
@Jawe "Jeff's new bluetooth speaker took watching porn on his phone to the next level. Within hours he was unemployed, standing in a white room, and miming the moans in every video he watched."
@Jawe "Hey! Who put super glue on the sides of my speaker!? Not cool dude."
@Jawe yo bra, why can't I drink out of this thing? So meh.
@Jawe "Finally, I can share my Celine Dion live recording with the world. (sings) Near....Far...Wherever you are..."
@Jawe and suddenly the cube started to float freely in the air, but try as he might, Chad just couldn't move it. He would be forever perplexed by the mysteries of the BEM Bluetooth Speaker.
@Jawe Warning: the following will void the warranty - submerging in water, opening the casing, or contacting Zordon and trying to morph.
@Jawe "Curse you, @cengland0!"
I love green.
@Jawe The ultimate tailgate accessory. Sound not included. Use responsibly.
@Jawe 'It like knows how to talk to everything?!'
@Jawe @snapster C'mon guys! Best caption for this dude that's way too into bluetooth speakers and "placing them where he likes" by 3:00pm Eastern time gets 2 (of probably the worst colors).
@Jawe ♫ Anndd IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII will always love youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu ♪
@Jawe If you miss this deal, don't worry. Like the terminator, it will be back.
@Jawe Blank as a box of Rocks?
@Jawe I love purple.
@Cinoclav you made me spit coffee. Thou shalt not waste coffee!
@jawe "Here's the stool sample you asked for, doc. Yeah, I've never seen a square green one either. You think I've been playing too much mobile Minecraft?"
@jawe Ok not really a caption but
@VeeDubTDI I'd totally 'star' you for that, but y'know - that would be self defeating! :) Btw, in case anyone wondered, it IS the same green as the speaker.
@Cinoclav Those eyes are terrifying
@jawe Look how far away my phone is from the speakerdock. Try that with a wire.
@Jawe @JonT: I was supposed to yell BAM! and punch out my enemy. Alas, I yelled BEM!, and now I'm hocking a speaker instead. ARRRGH!
@jawe Caption: Dude, Dudebro not included bro.
@JonT Now 20% moar cooler so Bronies can buy them!
@jawe @JonT I'm calling shenanigans here. I checked the counts with just a few minutes left and you were at 4. Ahem...
@jawe Annnnnd we have a "winner"! Well done! You'll be receiving 2 of whatever color speakers I grab first.
@JonT Smh
@JonT yay - nice use of quotes around "winner" :P
@Cinoclav Those last minute pushes can get ya. For what it's worth I did like your entry. Maybe I can scrounge up a runner up prize.
@JonT I'd certainly appreciate that. I truly don't want to sound like a jerk, but that was obviously not a 'last minute push' but most definitely 'last minute cheating.' He was at 4 stars for a long, long time and magically the only person to get 4 more stars in the final 2 or 3 minutes was him? Just not cool. If you're able to see who starred him, I'd wager today's paycheck there are quite a few brand new accounts at the end there. And thank you btw for the appreciation for my green Barney. :)
@JonT Oh, may I also suggest in the future if you have a similar contest, don't give out a specific end time. Keep it to yourself and let the winner know when it hits. It just opens it up for exactly what happened today.
@Cinoclav I linked a few friends to my photoshop around 2:30pm, but I can't say for sure if they voted me up or not. I don't think they're mehmbers and I doubt they would've registered just to vote me up. I didn't think the photoshop was the reason I won anyways, since it wasn't a caption.

@JonT this how you are deciding to send out the dozen fuku's?
@jawe So, uh, how are you down to 1 star on your pic?
@Cinoclav Weird - the star counts are jumpy.
. . . Really. . .?
This is your mea culpa? Granted, the fools at BEM shoulder a lot of the blame. Arkansas red instead of Georgia Red? What?! Who made that call? What marketing guru decided that was a good idea? Surely he/she/they have lost their job for this lamentable debacle. . . And if not, heads should ROLL in Woodstock, IL.
But Meh. Meh Meh Meh Meh Meh. You're better than this. Passing the blame on to BEM? Why do business with this company, a business either A) run by group of monkeys that dress like people or B) is chock full of old school Communists hell-bent on destroying our way off life? Either way Meh, you can't bury your head in the sand and pass the buck on this. No. This will not abide.
Your color scheme in the front was nice. You're making strides. But go the whole 9 yards. Make this right. Georgia Red. You can do it. I believe in you.
Kudos to the person who Wikipedia-ed the Sugar Bowl. Terry Hoage was a beast.
I love purple.
@jrwofuga Cheer up, sucker!
@jrwofuga I think you're deflecting the blame here. The story clearly states that the very first time you decried us for not having your beloved Georgia Red, we actually did have it...it was merely mislabeled. I think the fault lays with you, good sir. If you were truly such a lover of Georgia Red...wouldn't you have recognized that the ‘Arkansas Red’ was actually Georgia Red in disguise?
@JonT I have a "merely mislabeled" Coach purse I bought off eBay I'd like to sell you. . .
@JonT that monster is doing it wrong as well.
But remember, my wife beater shirt's sold separately.
Got two, one for each of my sisters. Too bad there's no Cornell Red. I'll have to hope they don't notice I went with Seminole Red.
