Glad I'm still in the beer stage...

Hi everybody, I'm a "newbie" and just thought I'd say hello. My name is Floyd, Pink Floyd, but my friends call me Pinkie. I've been lurking here for quite some time and learning quite a lot about headphones and headphone amps from you guys I think it's now time to come out of the dark and into the light and I hope I'm welcome here. All the best. Pinkie

Haven't seen a movie in a while where the movie just grabs your attention and holds on to it the entire time. Aside from a rather drawn out scene towards the end the entire movie was excellent. And for those of you that really dislike subtitles, they're all single line and very easy to follow.

Have a safe and happy holiday!

This was her last night, cooked and resting: Just eaten it (well, not all of it) and to be honest it was the one thing on the plate that I didn't really like.... much preferred the stuffing and all the trimmings (as is usually the case with Christmas dinner) Anyways, any other saddos here who have got nothing better to do than take pictures of their turkeys? If so, upload them..... I just love looking at other people's birds

This question came to me while I was taking a dump this morning, and contemplating the finer points of taking a piss...

I?m considering running an alternative OS to Windows XP. I?m thinking one of the Linux variants. I have never used Linux so I am unsure how to proceed. So I have a few questions. I?d want a dual boot XP/Linux. Does anyone know of good tutorial web sites concerning this? Any opinions on the different versions of Linux? Does anyone know of music software for Linux (Open source) Burning/Ripping/Playing? Can I put both boot sections on one drive? I do have two drives so it?s not an issue. Any sites listing open source (Free) applications for Linux? Is Linux what I should be looking at? Thanks

Americas newest fighter. Spent 2.5 years of my life on this project. Nice to see the chick finally leave the nest.

seems a little strange to me... 1) why in the world was the B52 picked! a person can put together at least 5 just as good whole rigs for that price. 2) um... how can a person raffle off something they dont' own? 3) at it's root, ticket holders are subsidizing the purchase of an amplifier for someone else, with little potential profit going to the charity. 4) Ray is getting to sell a 5K amp at full price, making more profit than any other party in this deal.

Just got notice the Fed-Ex man will be dropping something off today (1 day early) Hmmmm... can't wait to see what it is!

If you were getting a new game system which one would you get and why?

I just learned of this site tonight at the head-fi meet, as jay casually mentioned it. Then I see he's got hundreds of posts here, and there are a bunch of other guys I recognize from head-fi! Then I try and create an account, and it already has my name/pw. Firstly how the hell did this escape me for so long (and what exactly is it)? And did you guys scoop the head-fi database or what?

Republican Voters Stay Home Anti-Incumbency Wins? By J.B. Williams If I could get a dollar for every time we are going to hear the word ?mandate? in the next 72 hours, I could get out of Dodge and retire to a Caribbean island in style, where I wouldn?t have to endure this? Speaker Elect Pelosi and Senate Leader Elect Reid are two of the most anti-American socialist members of Congress - now in control of Congress. They can thank Republican voters for their new-found power, but they won?t. They will jam it up their bumm instead? Five of nine registered voters are registered Republican, making it a numerical impossibility for socialist Democrats to win power in…

Miracles happen! The democrats have taken control of the house, and it looks like they will ultimately take the senate. Now let?s see if they can grow a set and hold hearings to exercise oversight over the executive branch. Let?s see if they are capable of reversing this administrations deconstruction of the constitution. I don?t hold out much hope that the Democrats will hold the administration accountable for their crimes. The democrats have run to the middle in an effort to pander to the independents and the ?Liberal Republicans? basically abandoning true liberals (Like me). Conservatives (Republicans) shouldn?t be too upset at the loss. The current Democrati…

The O.E.D. is a historical dictionary, providing citations meant to show the evolution of every word, beginning with the earliest known usage. So a key task, and a popular sport for thousands of volunteer word aficionados, is antedating: finding earlier citations than those already known. This used to be painstakingly slow and chancy. When Paton started in new words, she found herself struggling with headcase. She had current citations, but she says she felt sure it must be older, and books were of little use. She wandered around the office muttering headcase, headcase, headcase... See here. [NYTimes]

the thread was a good laugh, but did it belong to anyone here? or on head-fi? Here is the post: http://www6.head-fi.org/forums/showthread.php?t=207026 sorry, if it was anyone in here; i do hope he gets caught. maybe we could sell him a tomahawk for 300 dollars to go along with it

I just noticed this. As I am a keyboard shortcut kinda guy, I always take full advantage of the "alt + S" to submit a post. In FF2, however, this is now the shortcut for the History menu. Is it just me that this is going to affect? Let us rise up, and make FF2 fix the woeful problem, so I don't have to use my bloody mouse... or use another 2 key combination such as "Tab/Space or Tab/Enter"... tis just not the same. **BRENT**

I thought you guys might want to be entertained by my short story I had to write for english class. Jesus Vs Godzilla All that could be heard was the sound of waves sloshing upon the rocky shore. The sun was rising in the Land of The Rising Sun, bringing light to another busy day in Tokyo. But this day was different. The sea floor rumbled ominously, and what looked at first to be a tsunami was actually a natural disaster of far more epic proportions. The scaly green monstrosity arose and began to stomp towards the city, Godzilla was ready to unleash his mighty wrath on the Japanese city yet again. "Gojirraaaa!" shouted the stereotypical, badly dubbed citizen…
