You guys are in Wyoming, or there's a restaurant I don't know? Dang! Now I see. Looks good. http://www.jacksonholeburgers.com/

^ Yes, he was one of the greats. RIP. I had seen this news elsewhere tonight and have been watching clips of his work for some time. The man sure could groove.

That's wonderful stuff, Dinny! Being proud of your mom is pretty cool as well. Speaking of which... my mom has similar interests and talents. She has taught adult education (GED program) at a community college for 30+ years, and has worked in a separate program to assist teenage mothers with their education and general life skills. She's passionate about her work, and has made a real difference for a lot of these girls. But sometimes I think they like her too much! Just the other day, she got her first 3rd generation teenage mom. The 33 year-old grandmother brought her daughter in (along with the baby) and asked, "Do you remember me?" My mom said, "Why yes, Jessica... and I remember your mom as well..." Apparently, Jessica was a 6 year-old when they first met. Mom told me, "Thank God this baby was a boy!"

Happy birthday!

Happy birthday, Shelly!

Happy birthday, Ari.

Wet t-shirt contest winner! I applaud the man.

Above quote taken out of context, of course, but... ya. I think that was what people were saying towards the beginning of this thread.

Just guessing you may have some conductivity issues. Might want to stick with wire.

Definitely two of the key culprits.

Stacken. There's another one. You're on a roll.

Which just proves that you need all kinds. I'm not really down with the 'academics hate' thing, I guess because my academic background has served me well and has likewise helped me to make a real difference in the lives of many of my students over the years. As with just about any form of learning or growing, formal education (academia) has its place in society. It's not for everyone, but fuck anyone who thinks it serves no real purpose because he/she/it (<-- the hermaphrodite straw man) would be wrong.

Let me shoot you real quick... before I shoot you! I've got a couple of HC threads I need to update...

Would be a great poster. College kids would buy it and put it up in their bathrooms.

I wish I knew so much... and fear that I once did.

Funny how threads can sometimes circle back to the original theme after wandering for a bit.

Awesome, Gene. I'm jealous. Haven't been there for a while...

Being "visual" doesn't necessarily mean that they read or can really picture it even if they do.

I don't know about that. When I see tits, I become all involved visually. But otherwise, I'd rather be listening.

What I don't get is how the hell would you know if the HD800 or the Orpheus is more "neutral" for any given piece of music? I mean, if, as you argued up to that point (and subsequently as well) it's impossible to know what "neutral" really means to begin with (because all of the variables that cannot be controlled), then you don't even know what you're trying to "listen for"... so how would you know if you've heard it... or not? So, yes... different headphones for different occasions. Some make us happy sometimes. Others makes us happy other times. Who would have ever thought of that?

Not surprising there would be some flubs, given what a tongue twister it is and how many news stories were being reported at that time... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GSf4RVbiPRQ&feature=related
