Possibly the only FFFFUUUUUU comic I've ever liked.

Not really HAHAHA FUNNY THING HERE, but a pretty cool nighttime long exposure.

What is this "need" you talk about. I am unfamiliar with this concept in home audio. Also, dubstep.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8fk1glWeX9A This is my favorite Ulrich Schnauss song, at least off his first album. The piano motif is simple, but gorgeous. Ulrich is not a serious beat programmer (he's more of a songwriter) but he did go in an interesting glitchy/IDM-y direction here that's a bit different from what else he was doing at the time.

NSFW, heavy on the WTF: LAZERTITS

All of the speaker placement seems like a lousy, as if they were plunked down wherever it was convenient. There's a real deficiency in the amp department as well. Also, the room is really small and there doesn't appear to be any treatment at all. That said, I'd give my left bad metaphor just for the 2.1 part of that rig.

A friend of mine posted this to his Facebook page: Remembering Alex Chilton: An Underground 'Big Star' : NPR "One last bit of remembrance: A couple short interviews with Chilton, from a number of years ago. Most interesting to me are his attitude about That 70s Show and how his lyrics were messed with and his feelings about the Box Tops's The Letter."

On the shelf between the HK rifle and HK guitar amp? Hopefully not next to the HK vibrator.

Goes well with the HK assault rifle, for fighting Hello Zombies.

#1 Never listen to aerius. #2, this may not apply to you, but the weather here is gorgeous today, and I'm about to take a roll of Fuji Velvia 50 out of the fridge and load it into my Rebel K2. If you don't have V50 and a film SLR lying around, get a cheap point & shoot (the dollar store me sells truly horrid film cameras, I've had a lot of fun with them) and whatever cheap print film you can find. Leave your digital camera at home. Film is much more demanding than digital, and much more rewarding. This is hardly the only technique for vitalizing one's creativity, but it works for me. Conversely, my friend Eddy has been shooting 4x5" large format B&W film for years, and just got a PowerShot G11. He's having a blast with the near infinite depth of field it provides (what large format photographers have to go through to get decent DoF is insane.) Unrelated: WAT.

CD2 of this album is one of my favorite drum n bass recordings ever. If all dnb sounded like this, I'd love the genre. Sublime atmospherics, hypnotic (but not monotonous) melodies, and steady snares that don't grate. A decade on, I still love it.

IIRC, even the humble GLite puts out 1W.

Mostly better, thanks. It doesn't hurt anymore but it still doesn't feel exactly "right." I did see my general practitioner last week. He asked me a couple basic questions and said I didn't need to see the optometrist immediately (I just saw one a month ago.) I have another appointment with my doc in early May. He said if my eye is still bothering me then, I should go back to the eye doc. I do have a prescription for eye glasses now. They have to be made out of "safety glass" material, whatever that is (plastic?) Of course that still won't help with stray laser beams.

Didn't sleep, that's for damn sure.
