  1. Shelly, here's a flight I had recently that I liked a lot: - Old Pulteney 17 - Springbank 14 yr. Manzanilla Cask - Glenrothes 25 yr, Adelphi Cask 1980
  2. Thought I had finished a memo I'd been working on all week. Then realized I had more to do and won't finish until Monday. Pisser.
  3. We've had a bunch of discussions about this, but I don't think they're concentrated in one thread. I did a search on "vintage" in the source section and it yielded some results that should keep you occupied for a little while. EDIT: Shite, I can't figure out how to link to my search results. Well, regardless, do the search that I describe and that will at least get you started. Hope it helps.
  4. This is a solid recommendation. I currently have the Centrance DACPort and it sounds good to me. I would just use the 650 instead of the 600, but reasonable minds can differ on that.
  5. Went to the annual benefit for the non-profit my mother helped get off the ground in NYC. It's a children's literacy program and has really taken off over the last 10-15 years. I'm very proud of her and it reminds me that I need to get involved with some community service again. http://www.reachoutandreadnyc.org for anyone interested.
  6. Happy Birthday, Ari!
  7. The HD800 is a pretty damn good low-volume headphone.
  8. I got my first Stax Lambda Pro and SRM1/MK2 for $400. Scrounge hard for a Parasound or Adcom DAC and you could have a close to game over rig for ~$650.
  9. This. Thanks Jeff. I did exactly that and just picked one up for $575. Let's just hope I receive it.
  10. Happy Birthday, Shelly. Have a great day--you deserve it!
  11. Jesus, Lundqvist has let in a couple of softish goals from distance. It would also be nice if the Rangers could hit the broad side of a barn with their shots. Regardless, Caps just playing better.
  12. Gang, what do you think of this deal: http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/800855691-USE/Nikon_2159_AF_Zoom_Nikkor_18_200mm.html/3.5-5.6G+ED+AFS+VR+LENS
  13. Following up on this, for a kids baseball game, I find the zoom to 200 (300 would be even better) very very useful. If only I could afford a fast one.
  14. Hey wise ones, I have my eye on the Nikon 18-200 VR lens. The VR1 is significantly less expensive than the VR2 and I'm wondering if there are many, or any, significant differences. I saw some brief mentions that there is less lens creep on the new one, but that the VR is the same. Anyone got any wisdom for me?
  15. Little Monkey woke at 6:30am. Little league team picture at 8. Game at 9:30. Now he wants a playdate and Daddy wants a nap.
  16. That's great news, Greg!
  17. Wow, graduating already! Congrats!
  18. great game. I fell asleep before the game winner.
  19. The pollen up here has been awful this season. Have fun. Post pics. I'd love to meet up, but I'm Mr. Mom again this week.
