Have a great one Jeff! BTW, I know the perfect gift to give yourself: a balanced Beta22! Let me know when you have come around to the inevitability of it. Cheers!

After a too soon Happy Birthday greeting here is to you Earl.Happy Birthday,were lucky to have someone like you around.

Adieu old friend. Thunderstruck! When we met we immediately fell head over heels in love. You were shivering on the cold ground and I picked you up and put you inside my coat. You and I bonded immediately. A bond that can never break. Birds. Oh my, the birds we sought and brought home. Endless hours together both doing what we loved most. I still have my first spent shell and feather from your first ruffed grouse. So many happy memories. And the bond We were always one. Always together. Always a team. Always forgiving each other for our faults and rejoicing in our successes. One heart. One mind. Together. That, my friend, is what I will miss the most. I will miss bein…

Happy Birthday! Have a great one.

I been trying to bring up the HF home page for the past five minutes and seem to only be getting a page with: "Database error The database has encountered a problem." I generally only check the for sale pages so would have missed any announcement but was this downtime expected ? http://www.head-fi.org/

Tyler, Mike and Zach: Belated happy birthdays to each of you, and I hope they were good days indeed! Cheers!

So I was writing a review of a new pen I bought over at the Fountain Pen Network, and the wood colored ebonite inspired me to take some pics of it in juxtaposition to my RS-1. I thought I'd share. Kind of a pipe dream, but it would be cool to see ebonite used in a headphone design, even though it would be both pointless and impractical. The pen is a Bexley Deluxe II in Antique Cream.

Have a phenomenal day!

Here's an interesting story from HDGuru. Apparently many companies are not honoring their own pricing policies in an attempt to increase profits in the recession. Has anybody here run into this?

Happy Birthday David!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BILLY! Have a Chiumphant meet! Cheers.

Once again this year I'm prepping to ride a century in support of the Kelly Brush Foundation. Between Zwifting as required by the rainiest spring in history, the MTBs, and getting outside as much as possible this summer I'm piling on the miles in preparation this year and should in proper form before the event. Once again this year it'll be an in-person ride up in VT, with friends mostly coming from near-by so we should have a strong crew of 8 with some riding the 50 and most doing the full 100 miles. For me this is the 12th century that I've done in support of either Northeast Passage or Kelly Brush and I'm hoping the recent trend of good weather continues. So the …

Welcome to the dirty thirties! Hope you're having a good one.

Happy Birthday Birgir! Here's hoping you rise to the occasion, and get lots of dough, at the very yeast! We all know that inside that massive Viking body, there lies a delicate flour of a man. So roll out the good cheer, as we know that you kneed it. And isn't it about time we heard news of a "bun in the oven"?

Happy Birthday!
