The Monkey

Very few people should be writing that much about anything. Editing is a skill people need to learn.

Yeti Imperial Stout.

I also think it's a good sign. They're just engaging in "consensus building."

Perhaps you'll get to meet with "key stakeholders." Good luck.

Enjoy your portable rig! I encourage you to take it on down the road.

I think mine has a different switch for the input selection, but that was one of the things that Justin replaced on mine. Does the toggle switch feel right mechanically?

Hop Rod Rye.

Could it be a ground loop?

I'm glad I got the 64GB, but I could live with the 32GB if necessary and just shuttle media back and forth a bit more.

Has anyone used ebay's "Instant Sale"? They're pushing it for people looking to unload their 1G iPads. Sounds too easy. And agree with Reks, that Thurrott guy is a moron. http://green.ebay.com/instantsale/ipad/

Eagle Rare.

Bear Republic XP

Is it too early for me to have a beer?

Rats.

Yay Fitz! Happy Birthday!

Al, like. Not as much as the Hop Rod, but definitely good. I also got the XP.

Shitty day at work, but at least got things done. It's amazing how difficult it is to get people to (a) make a decision and ( b ) do their fucking jobs. As a result, I'll be working this weekend.

2007 Bodegas El Nido Clio Jumilla Too young, but still good and an unbelievable preview of what it will be with some age. EDIT: Dan, I think you would like Spanish reds a lot if you have not yet tried any.

Racer 5

Um, pics please of teh awesome.

Sounds manly.

My father-in-law and I went to a wine thing at the Palm. It was good. I already have a headache. Need to pick up some more bourbon tomorrow.

Glad you told us, mike and I'm sorry about the bad news. Stay strong, gang.

Christ. All I can say is that I know this group is special: intelligent, sensitive (sometimes), generous, and caring. If any of you are ever feeling desperate, please call or PM before doing anything rash. Everyone here is valuable no matter what baggage (i.e., not tom bihn) you're carrying. That may be obvious but it's important to say it.
