Homemade pork tacos. Very happy with the way the pork came out. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk7 points

Pinnacle was sold on HF. I don't really use full size phones anymore, and found that the high spl environment caused some sort of tube ringing. Once I noticed it it became impossible to ignore. Not a fault of the amp, in my opinion. Just the physics of exposed glass. Along the way I became a fervent believer in passive preamps. i'm already day dreaming about getting some magnepan mmgs. That was quick.5 points

Amazon delivered a 6 pound jug of crisco last week, so I used a bunch to demonstrate my wisdom in buying it. Fried chicken, garlic mashed potatoes, pork gravy (using ham dripping ice cubes saved from Christmas) and Thai chili Brussels sprouts. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk2 points

^^^Oh yes! In a sequence which must have lasted only a few seconds, the range of facial expressions packed in one after the other is truly astonishing. What a loss. I forget which father and son actors I heard being interviewed on the radio a couple of years ago, but their technique was totally different. The son basically just turned up and acted in an uncomplicated way. But he was describing his father's attention to detail, and described one of his dad's notebooks which was full of descriptions of different ways of opening a door. The bookshelf was full of such notebooks. I suspect Rickman was a notebook sort of guy judging by that video.2 points

When Stax did 100V only amps back then they just wired the sockets every which way as they were never supposed to be used with the plug. You need to completely match the picture above but it looks like you are lucky, just move the green and brown to the their correct spots and add the other white wire. Just make sure it is the right one as Stax always used two white ones for some reason. Hehe I'd say most on HF wouldn't call us nicer but welcome. Here we talk about the stuff that actually matters, not the stupid crap HF calls a Stax thread these days.2 points

Here's the recipe - http://www.recipetineats.com/pork-carnitas-mexican-slow-cooker-pulled-pork/. I followed it pretty much verbatim. The cook time, on high in my crock pot, was around 5hrs which seemed to track with the recommendations in the recipe and I can't think of anything that I'd really change. Even using a smaller pork shoulder (~4lbs) there is a ton of of meat for leftovers, not that I'm complaining. In the future there's a pork chilli that I'll be using this for, for sure. In case anyone is curious - the taco construction is homemade guacamole in the bottom, then the pork, then homemade pico de gallo topped with a little cheese on top wrapped in a soft corn tortilla.2 points

The Eagles were my favorite band during my college years (71-75) and have remained a top 5 band for me since then. Take it easy, Glenn. RIP1 point

Yeah, that sounds awful for all of you. 1 out of 5 times I spoke to cab drivers in Beijing, they just stopped the car and said "here." That was where I got out. Also, Birgir, that is pretty rich coming from a guy who's national language is basically unchanged since it was written in runes.1 point

Complete-USA they drove down from NY. We were able to get the stands and speakers in a rented van. Much easier with three people than two...wow. i like that they will be put to good use making music. i was able to avoid eBay and their absurd 15% fee, which helped both of us. my credit rating just jumped 62 points, back into 'excellent'. lol. Also, I have been window shopping Rockville condos closer to my office, and it may be nice not to have so much stuff if I get serious about it.1 point

Very sad news. I'm sorry to learn of your loss. It's been nearly 9 years since I lost my dad (to cancer as well) and in some ways, it feels like it was just yesterday. He will no doubt stay with you in the memories that you carry in your heart. May he rest in peace. Semper Fi, and much respect for his service. Just wanted to mention (since I was the one who started this thread way back when), that the "some fuck or another" in the thread title wasn't meant to be disrespectful at all. If you go back to read my opening post, you'll see the context and intent, and that it's really about acknowledging the contributions that many people in society have made to our lives, whether we knew them personally or not. With parents and other close family members and friends who we've recently lost, it's each person's call whether you think this is the right place, or you would prefer to have a dedicated thread. In any case, I think that is probably worth repeating every now and then since this has become such a long thread. But ya... fuck cancer, indeed.1 point
