Picked up the new Tux and donor package for tomorrow night's First Look for Charity at the Chicago Auto Show. Getting to look at all the new cars without all the riffraff sounds like an ideal way to spend a Friday evening.

Shockingly, my trip has been extended by a day.

It's snowing. A little.

Shake Shack for the first and maybe last time. I cannot imagine why one would eat here. Would so much rather have In-N-Out! That said, the PB shake was decent. The burger was meh. The fries were gross.

Looking pretty good. A bit carrot like, yes, but still much better than first anticipated.

Crowded House -- Woodface

Same here! Though I made sure I had put some Gentle Giant on, he did still curse me for not having any of the aforementioned Porcupine Tree....

6" of snow yesterday caused schools to close, ice overnight caused delays, 8-12" forecasted for tomorrow means no school again.

FYI, parking the car INSIDE that new garage will lessen the amount of snow on said car.

I was supposed to play tennis this afternoon. Instead I am snowed in and have nothing to do but work and/or shovel. Worst snow day ever.

I remember talking to DaveDerek at meets back when I lived out east. He always gave me shit for not having enough prog-rock music for him to demo with.

Really nice guy for sure. He mentioned something about CJ LA '09 I think... don't think I remember him from Chicago but there's a couple things I don't remember firsthand about that one.

That was either you auditioning for greeter or accusing me of being one -- I am by no means the official greeter, I'd probably just turn 90% of everyone away. Even at Wal-Mart, I'd be like, "no, no, Wal-Mart is not meant for you..."

I quoted Dusty, in my attempt at a joke...

You went to NY and met Dave? Wow! It's spelled Letterman BTW.

Those fries look like frozen grocery store fries. Bleh!

I'll fly in and out via NYC and I should have one night by myself so I'm up for some shenanigans...

A guy I met at the meet who some people already know named Dave Lederman (sp?), forgot his HF handle, mentioned Porcupine Tree. We were talking about them for awhile and then he mentioned his favorite band is Gentle Giant, so I'm checking them out now.

Vince, John is a meticulous graphic artist and builder. Below is a Carbon designed and built by John, sitting on top of a KGSSHV off board designed and by John and assembled by me. The knobs are stainless steel on the Carbon and titanium on the KGSSHV...

Who the fuck are you?

Mr. Tice passed away in 2003, I'm Steve.

Hello All... Since there were a bunch of requests for more GRLV boards I'll do another round. I've also added the boards listed below that are in demand. Also, as a side note if you're looking for boards from my last GB I have one set of Dynahi boards, four or five Dynalo Mini, and a few volume pot boards left.

Fried Gator tail bites And Cajun chicken pasta Not bad. **BRENT**

Haven't done yet, but taking my Mom out for dinner. Fried chicken livers! She and I are the only ones in the family that do, but we love 'em! Cholesterol be damned! Attempt successful.

I actually knew all of those, but I'm a huge...excuse me, YUGE Carole King fan. So much talent!

Received mine today. Thanks

Glad to have missed that. Major rain storm again today but I am at home and warm and dry.

Oh, davederek. Yeah, he's been around a long time. He was looking for a floor to crash on at CJ10, if memory serves. But don't believe he made it there.

Pretty sure Lederman is correct (and pronounced like Letterman), his username is davederek. He's a good guy, had been messaging him off and on for years until we finally met at a Spring NY meet a few years back.

More worrisome are the actions and belief system of the stepmom, Dyna Mo Hum...

I simply can't hold my tongue any longer! I'm here to caution against Dyna Fett! I'm not yet calling for a Fett ban, but there are at least 7 galaxies that are very worrisome. As yet there is no absolute proof that Dyna shares his cousin Boba's views, but again, caution is in order!

I received mine Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

Many thanks I received my package (yesterday) safely.

Heh, sorry, Steve. It is an old habit. I went to a goofy liberal arts college where all classes were discussion based and, in the spirit of being egalitarian, we had to refer to both the other students and the professors as "Mr." or "Ms." so-and-so regardless of any titles they had obtained.

Have you done any YouTube videos? If so, I'd love to see them...channel?

Gotta hit up nyc crew too!

Thanks for the birthday wishes. Pretty low key on the road at WWE HQ but was great to see everyone the weekend before for the little bit of time I was able to fit in.

In the spirit of getting things no one has heard of, just got a Denon DA500 on the cheap. It completes my BB trifecta of PCM63/1702/1704 DACs and also hearkens back to HC circa 2008 This thread is very, very bad

It's too bad you don't have any friends in the US who could fix you up with some.

The Bay Area crew is an Uber that has a seat for each of us. Cheers until the next one! Mil spec scallops anyone?

I had the same yesterday, which was a bit hard to find on account of Vietnamese New Years. Three types of ham is the best.

Payment sent; shipping address in paypal note. Thanks!
