Got Scotch in the cupboard older than you, but that's 40 in Stax years I guess.

Hey- My good friend icculus514 just joined up recently. He is pretty new to the world of audiophilia but he loves it and is learning quickly. We've seen phish a shit ton together and have had lots of very long and very disturbing conversations in cars at night. He's reading over at HF a lot and trying to learn the ropes, and I'm doing my best to help him sift through the tomfoolery. He's heard lots of stories about this place (which is really hard to describe to someone with no context) and doesn't want to come off like an asshat and end up dead in a basement. However he has met reksy (back in fall 09) and survived unscathed so I think it's cool. He hasn't posted…

Have a very happy birthday mate.

IMO it's about fucking time! Now the push to allow gay men to be Scout leaders. My viewpoint is no surprise, I'm sure. How do you feel about this? I will keep an open mind, I promise.

Have a great day GRAWK !

Happy Birthday!!!!

Pretty much the only posts I've ever seen from PUGSTUB are him selling off gear, particularly PCDPs, that he seems to acquire from various places (I think at least a few came from eBay). Is that basically OK by head-fi's rules? I'm a bit confused since someone had said once to me that they don't like you making a business selling things on head-fi without being an MoT.

Yeah, but you're as bad a messup as he is so we didn't pay attention to your diagnosis.

So the wife and I have decided that we want out of NJ... problem is we have no idea where to go. We have had enough with the traffic, people, rudeness, and all the lovely things NJ is known for. We would greatly appreciate any thoughts or suggestions. As an aid the wife and I are more outdoorsy people than city people but still like nice restaurants and amenities near by. We are currently looking at Austin TX, Nashua NH, Harrisbug PA area...

Have a great day Al and try not to let any magic smoke escape!

Have a good one, everyone

If anyone here has a subscription to Audiogon, and wouldn't mind checking the price of something in their bluebook could you please send me a PM? It would be a great help, thanks.

http://www.federalreserve.gov/releases/h3/Current/ The Federal Reserves Statistical Release, which lists how much money the banks & other financial institutions in the US have in reserve for various purposes. Of particular interest is the column marked "non-borrowed", which is basically the amount of money they have available for when customers make withdrawals, or in layman's terms, how much cash they have in the vault. Note that in the unadjusted tables, this number has gone negative. In other words, when you go withdraw money from the bank, that money ain't there, and your bank is now borrowing from the Federal Reserve Bank so that your transaction can go thr…

Happy birthday, Gene! Hope your day is filled with things to please you.

EU fines Intel record $1.45B for sales tactics - Yahoo! Finance Anyone have more background on this? This quote is pretty bizarre. "The European Commission also told Intel to immediately cease some sales practices in Europe, though it refused to say what those were. Intel said it was "mystified" about what it was supposed to change but would comply with the "extremely ambiguous" EU order." Is it kosher to order someone to stop doing something and then not tell them exactly what they need to stop doing? Moreover the money goes to the EU and not to AMD...?

Have a great Birthday guys!

Happy Birthday Ric!

I'll be in Indy next weekend and need restaurant recommendations near Bankers Life Fieldhouse.
