On the other side of things - New Years Beach Life. Fujifilm X-Pro2 and Fujinon XF 16mm f/1.4.

Social D... one of my all time guilty-pleasure bands.

From an earlier post, but worth repeating for @jose

Get well soon, Jose. What a way of starting the year. I've been at a hospital in new year's eve as a patient and as a worker, neither is awesome, but after all it's like any other day. Sex deprivation is worse, I wish it stops hurting soon

Have you seen the movie?

Thanks guys!!! Craig, I'm glad you're fine. That finger already looks good!! Now I am fine. They have allowed me to return home today in the afternoon. For a moment I saw myself as one of Alien's characters. Since I have not been able to say goodbye to the year, now I will take the fucking medicines and start listening to some music at home. Iron: where were they from exactly?

If interested in the story of good old tubes, I recommend Guide to the EL34/6CA7 by Pasquale Russo. Also some information on the KT77. 365 pages of interesting stuff.

I forgot to comment that the German-Maestro also have identical Beyer housings and I would swear they also use the same drivers. I have several German_Maestro at home and they are very similar to their Beyer counterparts. German-Maestro webside

Some online reviews not too positive.....one example:

French Onion Soup -- smells delicious! Was loosely following this recipe

I had a Beyer dt770 years ago. Son #2 destroyed it. Seems late night gaming is very intense?????

So B&H photo had a discounted return. I ordered one at $10 off. No brainer. I'll find a use for it at that price. I don't currently have a closed set of headphones.

Great to hear you are on the road to recovery, Jose! Well, other than the downer on sex that is ?‍♂️?‍♀️?

jajajaja I settle for drugs and rock. Right now I don´t want sex ... it hurts too much ?

Now you guys are just getting nasty. ? Aren't you the same 3 guys who made me build the Carbon, and then the Blue Hawaii BJT after that? Come to think of it, more than 1 of you got me to build my original SRX-Plus too. Your taunts will no longer work on me. ?

RIP Don. and Syd. Ed - found this nice write-up and pics. https://hifructose.com/2019/12/30/beloved-futurist-syd-mead-dies-at-86/

RIP Syd Mead, brilliant concept artist for Blade Runner, Tron, Alien, and so many others...

I know this is small beer compared to what Jose has gone through in the last couple of days, but three weeks post op on my finger this is what it looks like now. I'm really pleased with the outcome, and the remaining scar will fade away pretty much totally.

Did he ever really do better than this? IMHO, this is -- far and away -- his masterpiece. I know people worship Richard D. James Album and Druqks, but nothing he did on those was as mind-blowing as this was to my 31-year-old brain (actually, probably 32 by the time I heard it, I was not exactly "in the know").
