Way too slim for me, but that Boglioli cord is gorgeous.

Hi,

Hi everyone. Just a word from this side. We're pretty much all in disbelief. We never expected anything of this magnitude and size and it really attests to who Brian was to invoke such a strong reaction from everyone here. His cousin recently came to visit from Korea so we've had someone to interpret what's been going on. They're overwhelmed by everything. They wanted to pen a letter to be translated and posted here but from what I'm told they're just unable to do it without breaking down. They just want you all to know it means a great deal that their son is remembered so keenly by this community.

His girlfriend is also following the thread very closely. She only knew the existence of style forum from Brian mentioning it (all the god damn time by her words). She wanted to share one of his favorite quotes which seems appropriate

"To live in hearts we leave behind is not to die" - Thomas Campbell

Her, I, and Bryson are planning on watching the auctions end together like a superbowl party. He constantly expressed how he wished he could do more for his family and even after he's gone it's like he's found a way to help them once again.

@tintinton (and Brian's girlfriend) - Super random, but I'm really curious about whatever happened with the console record player Brian bought for his girlfriend. He and I PMed a bit and I tried telling him it to just buy separate stereo pieces, but he seemed set that he was going to update the console he got. My favorite part of our conversation was him telling me that every time he tried doing anything with it, it shocked the hell out of him. Did that ever get figured out?
