Have a great day! Hope you get to listen to your R10s today!

We have a "post the last thing you bought" thread but nothing like this! I'll start. CDs!

In my wanderings across the world wide web I came across Spintricity: High-end Audio Adventurers - Volume 1 Number 4 - Where the Music Is Interesting how they describe their aim here: Spintricity - Got Music? "So what are we going to do about it? First, we have no reviews. Or to be more precise, we have no reviewers Instead we encourage manufacturers and dealers, perhaps in conjunction with a writer or photographer, to submit articles about their equipment. Articles will be screened to maintain a high level of information content and a low level of marketing speak [we sell advertising space for those]." Four Issues out so far Their navigation …

I don't know if any of you know of Tuli or the Fugs, but I knew and loved the man, and what's strange is that I'd been thinking about him a lot the last month for no reason that I could figure. I found out today that he passed. RIP Tuli. Fugs Co-Founder Kupferberg Passes - by Marc Tracy > Tablet Magazine - A New Read on Jewish Life

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JIN!!!!! Hope you have a good one

My father-in-law's estate is sending my wife's whole family (19 of us) to Cancun for one big fling before the Nana of the family is too old to travel or isn't with us anymore. She's at 77 years, but so was father-in-law when he passed away this summer, so her family wanted to build some new memories while she's still with us. Is there anything to do or place to go in Cancun that we absolutely should not miss? Any dangers or places to avoid? We'll be at some all inclusive beach resort that I can't even pronounce, but I think there is a water park near by. I've only been to Mexico once, and the Tijuana taxi driver's scared the crap out of me - is it like that in Canc…

Just putting this out there in case it can help. Harry Manx, a fixture on the Canadian folk-music scene, had a one-of-a-kind instrument (basically his livelihood) stolen recently. Here's a photo of it, and a message from him: Beloved friends, with a heavy heart I want to tell you all that this morning at Chicago Ohara airport, while I was on my way to retrieving my luggage, someone stole my beloved Mohan Veena (pictured to the left of me). Security cameras showed a man pick it up and walk out. I've had that Veena more than 20years. There's hardly been a day that I haven't played it. I feel as though I've lost a good friend. I need everyone's help to find it. I…

I think it's about time to get a new mattress. I am having to sleep on my back because of my shoulder issues our bed is 9 years old. So I feel that it is not giving me the support I need (my back has been feeling sore and achey for one reason or another). I was looking at memory foam mattresses (firm or med-firm) but I am just not sure that is the way to go. We are probably going to do that or a good/firm spring mattress. We were happy with our Simmons Beautyrest for many years but the foam topping isn't holding up anymore on my side. Thoughts? I know some people here love their memory foam mattresses. I can afford a Tempur-pedic but only want to put out that…

Have a great day Jeff!

Have a great birthday back in SoFla, JP! Cheers!

I don't know why it took me so long to realize this but it occurred to me as I started to write this that I've been fundraising through rides like this every year that Andrew's been alive. That makes me both proud and feel rather old. So without further adieu it's that time of year once again where I call upon the incredible generosity and support of this community to help me raise money for the Kelly Brush Foundation. Nate's Donation Page This year is no different than years past, well other than the fact that I'm even later starting fundraising than normal and the ride is earlier than usual. So in just under three weeks I'll head north west into the …

So I picked up a Pre last Friday and I've been using it pretty heavily since then. The screen is very nice, on par with the iPhone's I'd say (the iphones being a glass touchscreen does get the edge in scratch resistance). The interface is really intuitive and done very well. The little "gesture" area below the screen fits in with the overall interface quite well and it works flawlessly. It's also hard to overstate how nice it is to finally have true multi-tasking on a smartphone. I often find myself having the Pandora app streaming in the background while texting or sending e-mails. Of course there is also the keyboard to talk about, I'm one of those people that r…

Have a great one, Dan.

A real loss for underground comix and Cleveland today. Obits here, here and here. Pick up a copy of American Splendor or watch http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IBv3TzH2jao. Play him off Toby.

Happy Birthday Brent!
