Wishing the best for your dad. The positive to take out of it is that the people doing the rescue work seem incredible. I shuddered when I read about the hospital that had to be evacuated, but saw pictures of the incredible care and safety that seemed to go into it....there are some amazing people doing amazing things to care for others!

^^^ Didn't see this until after the vid, but that was my favorite part of the video too.

Thank you Vicki for doing this, another wonderful cause taken up by HC'ers! Just donated.....

Hadn't read the last few posts here until now. I have the Jones-designed Pioneer bookshelf speakers, they are pretty nice. Newegg has twice put them on sale in the last 4-5 months for $50 USD INCLUDING shipping! Couldn't resist..... I have them running in conjunction with a Gallo TR-1 sub, making some nice music from a semi-vintage Marantz 1020 integrated. Of course, the Neko DAC as the source makes a huge difference! I have read, though can't remember where unfortunately, that the towers may not be quite as good as the bookshelves, but should be real good for the $ in any case.

I had read about that....hope he and others are OK!

Wow, ConEd plant pretty scary..... We survived with I think 2 small blips, one really a brown out. School for my son closed again today, but I'm going to work..... Best of luck all, stay safe!

^^ just saw that on the news, wild.....BTW, one of the condo's there pre-sold for $90M according to the newscaster! We had one droppout for about 15 seconds. Power back on, working for now.... Our neoghborhood has undergound wiring, but a lot of our feeder areas are above-ground and fairly sensitive. Hope everyone is OK!

Nah, Michael Phelps zombie teaches other zombies how to swim, and they all land on the Jersey Shore and smoke (sea)weed.

No generator here, but did a bunch of non-perishable shopping..... Good luck to everyone in her path!

Congrats, Nate (especially on the night out without kids! But the refi too)

Happy Birthday!

Echoes of good luck!

Sadly, not served in the taxidermied corpses of small animals..... http://www.foxnews.com/leisure/2012/10/24/scottish-brewer-unveils-brewmeister-armageddon-world-strongest-proof-beer/ I really have to wonder how GOOD this actually would taste.....

Nicely done, Tyll.....great to see some faces and hear some slurring

Al, I like that Of Montreal album, was listening to some of it yesterday. Today: VA - A Tribute To Repo Man. Some nice versions, especially Amanda Palmer doing Suicidal Tendencies' "Institutionalized"

Happy Birthday, Marc! Hope it's a great one!

Congrats Giants! A local radio station here was talking about the completeness of the team and picked them for the WS champs....this when they were still down 3-1 vs. St Louis......!

RISE above, Dan! (sorry)

A nice triple bill! Hope you all have great days!

Holy crap, Jacob....is the fingertip bad? Obviously a lot of bleeding but what about permanent damage? Hope it and tooth all are OK, and be well! Nate, I felt the quake too. I was actually sitting on the toilet! Even though I figured it was a small earthquake, I jokingly thought to myself, "What the hell did I EAT today?!!"

What is going on with accidents here? Just glad the people are OK, and sorry to hear of the hassles that are ensuing....

Good news, Vicki. Continued best wishes for feeling good.

Very Happy Biorthday!

Wow, splinters, barricades, and embezzlement....oh my! Never a dull moment on HC! Me: took my son to the doctor and hospital today, his "slightly sore wrist" from soccer game yesterday decided to swell up overnight. Thankfully X-Rays found no breaks; but splint, ice, and ibuprofen for the next few days most likely.....
