Some people here seem to think I was a member here before and I am here to tell you that aint so. I signed up for Head-Case along time ago and forgot my password and gave up on it. I then spent a lot of time at head-Fi until I received an E-mail touting the revamped site and decided to come and check it out. I had to have a new password E-mailed to me and here I am. If some of you think otherwise then I just don't know what to tell you. My name is not hard headcase and I am not banned over at head-Fi. So anyway, I was thinking of buying an RSA B-52 and using my Pico as a Dac fot the B-52, how cool would that be? Just think of the expansive soundstage and airy smoot…

So Georgia is having a drought and the governor decided the best fix is going 'old school.' We taking bets on this working in 2007? Anyone know how Alabama spinned the continuing drought?

He was brilliant - loved him. I'll just add that he was perfect as the villain in my favorite film, RIP - he was great in everything.

Really sad news today. http://www.whereseric.com/eric-clapton-news/303-jj-cale-dead-heart-attack I've always been a huge fan, and I can't exactly explain why. I have all of his albums and have seen him several times live. He was everything he was and nothing more. He didn't have to play the usual games of the music industry because he was never in any rush to get anywhere. He was an authentic musician. No pretense whatsoever. Didn't seem to have anything to prove. First time I saw him was in a small venue at an old theatre in Kansas CIty in the winter of '96 when I lived in town. Couldn't believe it. Just opened the paper one day, and said, "Shit! I c…

So I'd like to ask a favor from some of the Photoshop gurus. I was wondering if someone could take the image below and make the black part red, and make the image size 70x70 (while maintaining the transparent background)? I've attempted this using some tutorials online with the lasso tool, and the results are fail. For anyone that is curious here is a link describing target CDs. Cheers

Laser-Accurate microphone proves once and for all that everything is better with lasers

I wish you a great Bday mate, enjoy yourself a lot

Have a great one Peter! Cheers!

Have a wonderful day Bonnie!

Well while browsing I got confirmation of the cancellation of two of the few shows that I liked. I really liked Surface and it is definitely gone. Invasion is also history. Invasion started slower but in the end I was caught up in it. I also looked at the announced new shows, and not one looks like I?d find it interesting. Shows that I will watch if I get a chance. How I Met Your Mother ? The only comedy that I currently watch. Neil Patrick Harris is fantastic as Barney. Law and order C.I. Lost Smallville On pay TV. It's cheaper to not subscribe and buy the DVD's when they are released. Weeds Deadwood I can?t remember TV ever being this crappy, ever.

There is a beep coming from somewhere in my house that I can't pinpoint. It's 3 beeps about 1/2 a second apart with one silent beat between them. It's high pitched like a fire detector but with beeps and not a solid tone. It's been going on since I got home form work today and I"m going to kill myself if I can't find it soon. I can't enjoy my beloved hd650's with this donkey fucking beep boring a hole in my brain. There's never been a worse time to be an obsessive compulsive than right now.

Happy Birthday Marshall!

Hello All I thought it would be fun to take the Polar Bear swim at Coney Island this year. Its been on my bucket list for a while. They are raising money for Camp Sunshine - a camp for Children with life-threatening illnesses and their families and I would appreciate it if anyone could donate some money to them through my page. https://www.crowdrise.com/AriFriedman I don't think I have told you this, but I went to camp every summer from when I was 6 weeks old (my father was the camp director) until I was 20, doing everything from filling diapers, to being a camper, working in the kitchen, being a counselor, and working on the high-ropes course. All of it wa…

I believe this was a thread started in 2006 or 2007 (on Head-Case with the old forum software). And I'm pretty sure 909 started it- it was asking about potentiometer replacements for a Moth amp. There were a a lot of suggestions in that thread, which then went off topic with marijuana jokes. Does anyone remember this thread? I've used every possible search string I could think of and I still can't find it. Admins- any way of checking if it was deleted by accident? edit: I suppose the real thing I wanted out of that thread was where I could buy an ALPS RK40 from. I think someone posted a link to a German seller that had them.

Have a great day Token!

I see the old guard here. And some old friends in its ranks. Anybody remembers me?

Hey Ivan - Happy Birthday! Enjoy. Hopefully your new DAC has arrived

Not sure if you still drop in, but a very Happy Birthday!

Have a fantastic day, eh!

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

There is a fairly rare set of Kenwood orthodynamic headphones on Craigslist that I would love to buy, but the seller wont ship.

I thought you guys might want to be entertained by my short story I had to write for english class. Jesus Vs Godzilla All that could be heard was the sound of waves sloshing upon the rocky shore. The sun was rising in the Land of The Rising Sun, bringing light to another busy day in Tokyo. But this day was different. The sea floor rumbled ominously, and what looked at first to be a tsunami was actually a natural disaster of far more epic proportions. The scaly green monstrosity arose and began to stomp towards the city, Godzilla was ready to unleash his mighty wrath on the Japanese city yet again. "Gojirraaaa!" shouted the stereotypical, badly dubbed citizen…

Tomorrow, I'm flying to Philadelphia and then driving up to Scranton, PA for my niece's wedding this weekend. I don't know the area at all. I'd appreciate any suggestions for interesting things to do in the area. Thanks in advance for your help.

Nechama and I will be going to Montreal in about a week because I have never been and thought it could be cool. Anyone have any advice on stuff that we absolutely must see or do? Anything we must *not* waste our time seeing or doing? So far my plans involve photography in the old city, and that's about it.

I've just pried out all of my keys and moved them to uk dvorak, pointless or will it result in a net increase in typing speed and accuracy? I don't know, but ive got a second qwerty on standby for when i get fed up. anyone else tried it?
