All my life, no popcorn has ever been fully acceptable to me. Suggest to me a popcorn that is acceptable. Greetings from the Sunny South! -postjack

Decided to go visit one of our upstate Pizza emporiums the other night Even though it's upstate, we have an internet Jukebox on the wall It plays all the popular songs Ordered a large pie (Hey, what did you expect, it's not Manhattan, it's upstate) Figured I'd put a little hot pepper on it, but someone rigged the cap to come off with a few shakes.... ha ha ha nice prank

Post your jokes here.

seems pretty common with certain prestige products and hi-fi audio products too beguiled perception

So I've been thinking about getting a cat for a few months now and I've started narrowing down the breeds I'm interested in. Here's the short list so far: British Shorthair Scottish Flop Siberian Any other suggestions from fellow head-case cat owners?

So I went to Arundel Mills Mall today to meet someone who was gonna buy some hockey tickets from me. $80, which almost paid for the gas down there and dinner for my family at popeyes. I met the guy, sold the tickets, bought some crap at the mall, and then went out to my car. My wife points out that her window has been shattered, and that we're missing stuff. Turns out 5 other people in that mall parking lot ALSO had their windows smashed and stuff stolen in the 3 hrs I was at the mall. I had my xm radio, gps, and my wife's bag of knitting crap? stolen. It was caught on mall security camera video. It was a well lit parking lot. Odds of anything coming of that anyone?

this is something I've always wanted to have... now, it's so obvious that maybe a thread isn't needed..... but .... wait for it: The Official Fan-Boy Roster I'll add the first: slwiser - ULTRASONE Edition 9 geez... anyways, mods feel free to asshat this thread, or move it somewhere more prominent

Got to see him speak tonight. Unfortunately it was a concession speech, but gg it was still awesome.

iGod My transcript: Here are some more. I've only read the first one. There are some funny moments: And my absolute favourite exchange:

I figure this'll get any kind bugs and server issues sorted out by posting this on the forums to get our server loaded. And for whatever reason, I don't get bugs on my end viewing with Safari, IE, Firefox or Opera...low and behold, somebody will get one(which I need to know about)....as it always happens. http://www.fitforkingsclothing.com It's STUPID simple and STUPID basic. We decided against anything even remotely complicated and wanted to keep a simple theme for things to be "off center" as we're both a little, well, off center, lol. We used some of our friends and random people as guinea pigs for the last site and some people thought it was too hard to navi…

Hello I am interested to see if any of you think that there are limits to your resolution. That is, your ability to determine if one thing is better than another when you very well know it should be?

GROUP METEOR SHOWER WATCHING! 1:40AM Eastern Standard Time Post pictures and/or impressions here. That means people with large fast digital slr's capable of large dynamic range. Like you nate. Carbon Fiber tripods recommended. Since this event also coincides with GIN HOUR (1AM EST), I would like to think of this as an evening party. Most of you don't care, but when was the last time you stopped and smelled the roses? Or looked at the sky? In this day and age of computers and instant on demand high quality music/movies/tv, I think we all need to slow down and enjoy the natural wonders that have entertained and stupefied mankind for millenniums. sourse: http:…

hi there i don't know if it's a taboo question, but was just wondering how come this place isn't ever mentioned on head-fi? am i missing something? is it supposed to be private only (i read some archives and noticed it was invite only at one stage) the reason i ask is that before i read the wikipedia article on headphones (of which this forum is linked, so it mustn't be that private) i had no idea this place existed and it seems like a great place when head-fi's a bit too much. i'd like to continue hanging here so before i get too carried away i just wanted to understand how things roll around here could someone please clarify? thanks, dave

Let me know what you thing: http://audiokarma.org/forums/showthread.php?t=135050 For those that can't sign in: << "white glove" delivery, coast to coast... After reading through the horror stories in this section, thought I'd pass along a little tip I've learned from dealing with UPS for 30+ years. Would you pay an extra $26.95 above the base shipping fee to ensure your precious doesn't travel in the back of the big brown truck? To ensure that when the truck reached the package depot that the dock apes never got near your precious, but that the driver personally handed it to a center manager, who would then place it under lock & key until he persona…

Greetings Head-casers, I was just wondering if anyone here had sold or posted any of their gear using Audiogon auctions. I'm in a bit of a situation because I need to sell my preamp as fast as possible in order to fund some textbook purchases for school. I have a standard listing up at Audiogon, but was considering taking it down for an auction to speed up the sale. What do you guys think?

Happy birthdays!

Hello Off-Topic Forum- Well the year is finally up, and what a year it has been! America got a new president of the united states, the war in somalia finally saved the black hawks from extinction, and ray samuels came out with a new amp/dac combo called "The Predation". Of course all this means its time once again to vote for your favorite imaginary headcaser. These are basically five names I sat here at work and came up with. The winner will receive a prestigeous plaque and an indigienous culture person for their home.

Because I'm fucking hungover and I'm sure I"m not the only one.

Happy New Year everyone and best wishes for what lies ahead.

106 and still going strong! Happy Birthday to you!
