Happy birthday, Carl.

I've always been a Macbook Pro user, and tend to get a new one every 3 years or so. Just did this about a month ago. Great machine, with one nagging issue. The audio will just randomly cut out altogether while I'm watching a video source, be it a YouTube video, or live sports (baseball of late), and any kind of a video from Facebook, etc. So I Googled to see if it was a common problem, and if there was an easy solution. Appears to be yes, it's a common problem, and no, it doesn't seem to have been properly diagnosed and solved yet. https://discussions.apple.com/thread/8466406 Should have mentioned that it's annoying as fuck.

Thought you would like that! Go Brewers!!! ...and now for something you won't like, but Shelly will, Go Astros!!!

When you want to keep up with technology but are still feeling the old school vibes.

Nah, you're still good! ?

Good stuff. Thanks, Al. Miss that fucker.

Sorry for your loss, Craig. Very sad news and a most challenging time for your family. Remember her well.

Thanks again, guys. Life is good. Birthdays are a great reminder of the alternative, and I'm always thankful to have another one and a chance for more.

Thanks guys, heading home to Illinois to see mom, et. al. Fall is always nice there.

Happy birthday, birthday brother!

RIP, Queen Aretha... and keep resting, King Elvis.

Horrifying. I have driven on that bridge. What a terrible way to go.

The NBA will be on snooze control for years now, assuming Boogie resigns a longer term deal after his first year. No reason to watch anymore, to be honest, other than to follow certain players.

LeBron to the Lakers. Oh boy, it's going to be exciting! Warriors in 4... just an earlier round.

Happy birthday, Brent.

Same boat, over 3,000 of them and another 1,000 DVDs and Blurays. Will get around to doing something about it, eventually. Maybe.

Happy birthday, Ari.

Happy birthday, Al.

I'll try to keep that in mind for the next time he dies. Poor bastard.

Harold Ramis, another one gone too soon. http://www.chicagotribune.com/entertainment/chi-harold-ramis-dead-20140224-story.html

Happy birthday, Dan!

Happy birthday, Colin. Sounds like you had a good time.

Happy birthday, Steve.

Searched for this topic, and hate to drag an old thread, but I'm finding that as I age, it's becoming more and more important to protect my hearing. Too many places are just ridiculously loud these days. Anyway, on the Ety site, I found this new gizmo to be quite interesting: https://www.etymotic.com/consumer/hearing-protection/mp915.html My guess is that their second generation attempt at this particular product/technology will be the time to jump in, whenever that might be. But there is a lot of good feedback so I'm tempted... and I've spent $299 more foolishly. Could just order several of the ER-20 XS. Last time (several years ago now), I ordered 5 sets of the ER-20, and think I gave most of them away. Where the last pair or two are is anyone's guess...
