Heya, Just wanted to say hi. I am a manufacturer, but I am a pretty regular guy. If I am allowed to say what I feel within the confines of the rules, I think I could add a little color, but I'm pretty restrained most of the time. See you out there.

http://youtube.com/watch?v=qQ0CPHplmhY This is the most ridiculous commercial I've ever seen. The image of Peter Gammons in a wig will never leave me.

He's 90 today. Put on a CD and raise a glass.

All the best Birgir! maybe someone will bake you a cake today?

Happy birthday Mike! All the best from Scotland

Happy birthday, Knucks! When are you going to start gaming again?

Has anybody seen the double-page ad in Rolling Stone that is an article on the history of vinyl? Does anybody have any idea what it means? It's a pretty decent article. It has jump lines at the beginning and end to make it look like it continues later in the magazine, but it doesn't. There's a little ad-within-the-ad for some TV show, which has nothing, AFAIK, to do with vinyl, or even music at all. Very odd

I hope to never see my sister-in-law ever again. She continues to fuck up any holiday she attends. She has no common sense, says tasteless and rude things to family, and continues to think things are just fine. She is a complete bitch idiot. If I could only It will really shake things up, but my goal for Christmas 2008 is to have a Christmas without her. I don't think I'm alone, judging from the comments from the rest of the family. So, anyone have a special someone who is similar?

So, we just booked our holiday...1 week to Berlin, hopefully we can get the week after that off too but that's not very sure (we both work for the same company). I'm so happy we have our vacation planned finally! At least one week of not having to think about work yihaa! So how 'bout yours...??

The film was limited for technical reasons to 10 minutes; the course was from Porte Dauphine, through the Louvre, to the Basilica of Sacre Coeur. No streets were closed, for Lelouch was unable to obtain a permit. The driver completed the course in about 9 minutes, reaching nearly 140 MPH in some stretches. The footage reveals him running real red lights, n…

So, I want to get a spin bike for home, after having done some spinning at gyms. Obviously I want the Peloton, but I just can't bring myself to spend the money, for some reason. Does anybody have one of the knock-off bikes? I'm strongly considering one of these. I don't think I'll mind a simple knob for resistance adjustment.

John and Frank, I hope you had great days with your families and friends and all of the other people who didn't screw up and forgot it was your big day! Cheers!

Holy shit. It blew my mind. The best movie I've seen in a long time. I have to see Shaun of The Dead and all that other stuff now.

Yikes!!! Been looking at the thread on Head-Fi

Not sure if anyone would have any interest, outside of maybe Steve and his apprentice, but the new neighbors brought over a blueberry pie and full photo documentation of the build of the house. What was sold as and listed for taxes as a 1972 home with renovations, would appear to be a near complete tear down and new build. Note the sweet green fridge in many of the pictures and the worker riding the chimney like a bull before it collapsed through the floor into the basement. They tell us the chimney was going to be the only thing kept, until that. House Build

I noticed that you can cuss and say just about anything you want in this forum. But I posted a tread a few weeks ago requesting some dating advise and it quickly got locked. Not sure why it got locked, but this site is surely taking a dive and I think it is because the interesting treads are being locked. Are we limited to only talking about really boring stuff here?

show off your headcases here. I'll start.

Had a friend of mine who sent me an invite so I went ahead and joined awhile back. I didn't really have the time to mess with it very much so I've left it alone for a couple of weeks. In the process I've added 2 friends and that's it. My "name" is not my real name. Today I went back and looked in the section where you can add friends. There are a ton of people I know and have worked with in the industry that have popped up! How in the hell is that possible when I don't go by my real name?
