My dad in his unbelievable generosity, paid for a new 27" iMac because my 7 year old iMac is just not cutting it anymore. Should arrive on Wednesday. I'm looking forward to the big screen.

Had a shorter ride with Chris this weekend but it seemed like a much greater workout. I would have thought the 830ft elevation gain over 15.5 miles was more than double that based on the climbing. Great workout that I think is really paying off as the hills I thought were tough not too long ago seem like nothing now. This was my first ride with my bars dropped another 20ish mm so I had to get used to that. It was really a great day for a ride, even if I thought that last big hill coming home was going to kill me.

Up nice and early for my training ride

Now that I have a hatchback I could load it up with FFF....

Hmmm. This might be during summer break for me...or finals week.

Beef Wellington, Modernist Cuisine Mac and cheese, creamed spinach and roasted veggies.

I have a trunk large enough for you to transfer the goodies into

I've recently purchased the C&C BH from ebay and it doubles the perfomance of the JDSLabs C421 for almost half the price. It's a top amp. Battery last 80 hours from a single charge! I can't wait to put my hands on the $300 C&C XO2 for an A/B. As we proceed I'll let you know more details about this little gen, that beats amps that cost twice as much. It has the performance of $300 amps, with the resolution/detail/clarity of much more expensive amps. If you live in the USA you can get it for just $99 and odds are that in your country you don't pay customs tax. I think the same applies to Australia. The C&C BH is a BIG BIG BIG step up from the FiiO E11. It makes the E11 sound completely muddy. Some pics: GC stands for Low and High Gain, LF for Bass Boost (very effective) and SF for Soundstage Field (it increases soundstage width and depth). The provided copper/silver cable sounds terrific, great value compared to the $5 FiiO cable. For just $99 this is a no-brainer for the audiophile in a budget that wants to try high end amps under $100 (impossible before the C&C BH launch). C&C is a chinese manufacturer, hence the low price. This amp could very well cost $200, since it doubles the performance of the $180 JDSLabs C421. It is just the size of a credit card, but its all metal, feels heavy, durable. Build quality is excelent.

Good thing those clay pigeons are unarmed.
