I work near a taco truck that sells them. They are amazing.

I find it very interesting that you terrified by the nude descending. I've never thought of that painting in that way but since you've said that I can understand why it makes you feel that way. It did, for different reasons scare the shit out of the then molding cubists.

the real fountain was destroyed when it was refused in the 1917 new york arrmoury show the picture is from a re-creation made in the 20's I believe. The story of the scandal that it created when it anonomously showed up with the entry fee is pretty good. I don't have time to tell it now but I'm sure it's online if you're interested.

This a selection of anton chekhov's later stories put out by the franklin press in '77. I fell in love with chekhov around 4 years ago and my love continues to grow every time I read his stories. If any of you like raymond carver's short stories then I whole heartedly recommend chekhov. Exeptionally few people have been able to just show people as they really are as clearly and with out imposing his own morality on his characters like chekhov. My pen name here is chekhov's old pen name when he wrote crappy stories to supliment his income as a doctor. I just receieved this book from ebay a couple of days ago.

That's exactly my gripe. I'm sure most people will netflix lost and not buy it due to it's price. I would buy it if it were afordable but now there's no way and insted of making $25 or so in profit they're making 0. Then again I guess I have to concede that they understand the market better than I do.

I can't imagine ever spending over $30 on a season of anything. I just can't understand who would buy it for that much. No wonder there is so much piracy and netfix accounts. I'm not a fan of piracy but I now have both seasons of the show on queued on my netfix account. You're right about the third season not being available on dvd. I must have halucinated it when I was at target.
-
I haven't watched any of this show and was thinking about picking up a season or two. I went to target and they had all three seasons but they're 50 dollars each. What the fuck? They might as well list an address with a good seeded torrent on the back so when you get home you can skip the google search.

why are animated jpgs so goddamn hypnotic? I find myself watching them for a couple of minutes in a daze all the time.
-
so what the fucking fuck is this fucking thing already?

is it an x-ray microscope? ...And are you going to determine what opamps ray uses in his amps?
-
so I went to that dinosuar JR concert and it rocked. They played their classic songs and some of the new songs from their album beyond. I'm really surprised that beyond is such a good album and true to their old sound.

The N64 one was scrapped, but then recently ported using sprites for the gameboy advance. It was only released in japan. There are currently two fan translations in the works. One from starman.net and mother3.org. Starman isnt' releasing any information about there translation untill it's complete. Mother3.org updates about every month. They are around 85% finished it seems not including patching work. I've been chomping at the fucking bit to play this game since the translation was announced mid last year.

dont' forget about al-anon, acoa and co-dep too.

I just recently replayed earthbound for SNES and found that it's still one of my favorite games.

How do you get a Pollock out of office? Give her repressed homosexual feelings and have her lash out on a children's show publicly. I really enjoyed her superior telling her that "she should avoid saying things that would turn her department in to a 'laughing stock'"
-
Starker is such a remarkable cellist. I would recommend his most recent recording of bach's cello suites. The Aria of Bach's goldberg variations by Murray Perahia is also moving in a sad way.

it was really bright in the house so I was able to take some very high speed pictures of him cleaning himself. That would be so fucking funny if his tongue was stuck.

Some pictures I took of this cat I'm watching for a friend.

My small town's Art theater just showed it last night, however it's been out since late december. Did any of you get to see it? I absolutely loved it however I understand that I'm in the minority.

I'm glad other people feel that way about head-fi. I've had numerous threads deleted for likening their policies to that of Tzar Nicholas II's but I also accept the gestapo of the 3rd reicht.

should I upgrade my ram?
Chekhonte replied to Chekhonte's topic in GoRedwings19's Computer Help Hotline
I always forget about linux for some reason. Although my portable player isn't compatable with linux I could use it for most anything else including foobar. When I get to my real home later this month I think I'll give it a go. Thanks for all your help, it's greatly appreciated. -
EDIT: sorry I read top fourty as your personal top 40 and not billboard top forty. sorry the following post is a little off topic. I had a couple threads like this on head-fi titled "songs you'd pay a thousand dollars to never hear again". I love bitching about shitty music. My top five songs are: Hotel California, not only is this song have the most uninteresting and repetitive guitar of any non-reggae song, it also is long enough for you to contemplate killing yourself and then actually go through with it. Man Eater, this song just plain blows ass. what makes it on my special enough to be on my list is that it still get radio play. How much coke and how many hookers did the label give to the DJ's back in the 80's that this horse fucking song still get played on oldie's stations? The Joker by the Steve miller band, this song blows but the retarded sun and weed blasted fans make me hate it even more. What if God Was One of Us, I fucking hate this song so much. Even though I haven't heard it in years it will at random ender my head and piss me off all over again. I don't know the actual name of this song but I do know that it's by Joan Osbourn and I'll be raping her flaming body in hell for writing it. hair of the dog by nazareth, this song almost makes it into so bad it's good. It has the loudest cowbell pounding out the 4/4 beat of any song i've ever heard. FAR greater than the song feat the reaper that SNL made famous.

Chekhonte replied to Chekhonte's topic in GoRedwings19's Computer Help Hotline
very good to know. I won't be getting any new ram soon. looks like it's time to start saving for a new computer. Do you know any good recources for finding machines on a budget? -
