  1. I wish my collection was that organized... I have a glass display case stacked with Stax headphones and a few on stands but it's a horrible way to store them. Those Stax stands get real expensive when you need 35 of them... :-\

    Its just a lump of wood for heavens sake. You could make 10 out of a fence post using only a saw, a plane and some varnish.

  2. Maine Coons are fabulous cats. Size of small dogs (biggest domesticated cat breed I expect), intelligent, as good a personality as youll get out of a cat.

    They do moult like nothing else though. Big fur droppers.

    Oh, also I don't have a cat. Its against the terms of the lease. And dad is allergic so we never had one back home. But I'm very much a cat person.

  3. Makes it pretty obvious I haven't studied them doesnt it? Getting the vocabulary wrong.

    Best go do some more revision on boobs, willys, circumcision, anorexia and such. Sex&Gender is a brilliant anthro class.

  4. We have had 10 years of Tony Blair for that. Now we're probably going to get David Cameron to replace him. After Big Gordie gets his time that is.

    If America had the large third wheel in politics that we have in the UK with the Lib Dems, then the political spectrum would be a lot more interesting. The trouble is that the danger of a third wheel (or multiple, larger small wheels) is if they grow so much that the big wheels shrink. (OR if you use proportional representation). Thats the road that leads to minority governments, coalitions and other circumstances where you end up with nothing being done whatsoever because theres insufficient authority. The biggest antithesis to the American 2 party situation (in a western democracy of good standing) is probably Italy.

    Ramble, ramble ramble, opinions, opinions opinions. Voter apathy, vot.. etc.

  5. The Big Sleep. nobody can slap a drugged up dame like Philip Marlowe, let me tell ya.

    Bogart or Mitchum?

    I have to say that despite its vast failings (i mean, its set it Britain for one). I have a fondness for Mitchums Marlowe, and for Winners Big Sleep in general.

  6. Insofar as my conversations on this side of the pond have revealed, Obama is the candidate that people are quietly nodding for. If only (maybe) because he stands in the starkest antithesis to Dubya, and everyone outside of the USA hates, or just makes fun of, Dubya.

  7. Routing flagship back to its roots as a word, wouldn't a Monster Cables flagship come in a large box about 3/16 of an inch too wide to fit into an estate car and during construction be found to have 3 or 4 screws missing, and at the end of the day be like James May's floating Triumph Herald

    Which pitted against the HMS Invincible of the HD650.

    Even though we didn't get the new Queen Elisabeth Class Carrier of the HD700, the HD650 is still better than what was launched by the Compton Navy under the command of Captain Dre.

  8. Bud and Miller dont deserve the name beer. At best they deserve the term Rice Based Fermented Infusions.

    Real ale is for the very win. And if by liqour you mean spirits in general, then they are also for the win, if by liqour you mean Liqueur, then those are also win.

  9. Any future headphone purchases I'd consider would have to be driven in some way by a speaker amp. I thought that, as far as dynamic headphones were concerned, tis might limit options to the K1k and the K340, but if the HD650 likes it too then great. I liked the HD650 far more than the K340 during my previous ownerships with them. And the HD650 is one of the headphones I've let go of that I do sometimes miss, along with the BabyStax, HP-50A and the Ergo 2.

  10. Facebook is a tool for keeping a basic tab on gossip. And Its pretty good as a photo storage service too. I just cant stand all of the pointless stupid for 13 year old girls and people who married their cousins applications proliferation. Because despite my best efforts, I still have friends or family on Facebook who are cretinous enough or just stupid enough to spam me out with their requests that I become a MentalPetrolhead, PirateOrNinja,HowHotAmI, DateRate, StripperName, CountriesI'veVisted, InsertApplicationHereAsshat.

    Groups are something that's listed in your profile, and which someone else reads, along with whatever information you put in your profile to judge you from afar. If you want to be active about something your a group member of, then there will be a proper forum for it, or better yet, you speak to such other people in real life.
