Holy biscuit, it's the Hillbilly Mexican's birthday! Have a biscuit- and booze-filled day, Brent. Cheers!

Happy birthday Dan! I hope you enjoy some fine noodles and fine tunes on your big day! Cheers!

Have a good one, everyone

Does anyone have moisture building up in their ear after extended listening sessions with their custom IEMs?

Have a fantastic day young man!

I'm giving thought to selling my touch.I haven't used it in about a month, and daddy needs an exhaust for his (pending) new bike. I have my mac with me all day at school, and I'm probably going to pickup a shuffle for workouts. I don't know if I need my touch anymore.

Not sure if I've ever started a thread in here, but I just had to for this: Headphones With Swagger (and Lots of Bass) I spoke with Andrew Martin of the Times for about a half hour. He was quite interested in what I had to say, and was well aware of questions like, "If Dre adjusted the EQ in the studio, why would he adjust it again in the headphones?" I'll save you the digging, here's what he decided to quote from me" “In terms of sound performance, they are among the worst you can buy,” says Tyll Hertsens, editor in chief of InnerFidelity.com, a site for audiophiles. “They are absolutely, extraordinarily bad.” I was talking about the Solo.

I was browsing the web and found something I thought is pretty cool, but couldn't find an existing thread to post it in. So here goes... http://www.urbanhardwoods.com/ All their stuff is done using reclaimed wood. I saw the "Day with Tim Lincecum" piece on CSN where he shows off his apartment in Seattle, and he mentions where he got what I think is a pretty badass table. Just thought I'd share. Maybe this thread could be used to post random cool stuff--audio, tech, or otherwise that we find.

I've been watching this cat for what started out as a couple weeks, has evolved into several months, and I have now taken ownership. I've known her on and off through the years, but am only now taking full responsibility for her.

According to Todd and Skylab and others, this douchey kid, who is also a member here, has scammed several people. He also went by the name Nick20. The details are here but he has Todd's TTVJ/Millett portable and other amps and never sent product on several sales. I guess the other option is that he is dead or in the hospital according to something Miguel Arroyo said, but it seems more likely he is just a prick.

My dog Denver passed this morning. She had been declining over the last two weeks to the point where I had to carry her outside to go to the bathroom. We found out she had cancer in her spleen and liver so we decided to end the suffering today. She was 10 1/2. Here are a few pics. The one with the headphones is from the first meet I hosted:

did your exams go that bad

It is for me.

Getting a male Vizsla puppy on New Years Eve. Need help with naming it! So far we're leaning toward Koda, Scout and Taz. No particular order. Your suggestions appreciated. One or two syllables are best. Here he is today at just over 6 weeks old.

Feliz Cumpleaños! Have a marvelous day!

Hope you are having a great one!

Have a great Birthday!

Just wanted to say Hi! Seems like a great new forum. Atleast looks much better then headfi

Treat yourself to a nice cloudy IPA, if you happen to have one to hand ...

My father, Lt Col. Kenneth Mueller (I'm actually the II), passed away today at 3:15 PDT. He almost made his 90th birthday, which is May 29. He had a great life, cheated death many times and died quietly at home, as was his wish. He was a veteran of WWII, Korea and Vietnam. I would just like to ask HCers to send some good thoughts his way and for the drinkers to drink something in his honor. Thanks. See you at CanJam.

Happy Birthday Gene! Have a great day!

The Fires have entered Colorado Springs. The famous Flying W Ranch is on fire, and the neighborhood we lived in 20 years ago (Mountain Shadows) is on fire. We appreciate any prayers, best wishes or kind thoughts this way. Thousands of people are displaced right now on the west and northwest side of town, and may become homeless soon. We currently live on the southwest end of town, and are about 10-15 miles from the closest flames. The winds kicked up to 55MPH earlier, and the fire just took off for the north - it's covered over 3 miles toward the north in the past 4 hours. A change in the winds could force it to the south of HWY 24, and in our direction. While …
