Attempted to make up for the day I missed this week being ill. Sort-of succeeded. Bought an RF cable for my housemate, who had apparently already got one the day before. Bought a new #1.5 comb for my clippers. The idiot salesdroid kept calling an "inch and a half" comb, even though #1.5 = 3/16" Bought a 5W CFL for my mum, so she can see to get to the washing machine. Explained to mum that CFLs are fluorescent, and are more efficient when left on. Also explained that the 5W CFL consumed the same power as the 5W incandescent nightlight she had been using, even though the CFL was approximately 8x brighter. Bought curtain rods for the front and back doors. Determined that the screws for the the curtain rod brackets were too long. Spent the better part of an hour finding suitable replacements. Installed the curtain rod on the back door. Got tired and hungry, gave up on the front door.

After a nasty bout of food poisoning that kept me in bed most of the previous day, I woke up quite early. I noticed that there was nice early dawn sky. As usually happens, my efforts to photograph it ended poorly. I did manage to snap a couple pictures of my new front door and outside lanterns. I didn't waste too much time framing, as it was bloody cold outside.

Apparently a sharp blow to the head can make the human brain develop super powers.

HIGH-FIVE INAUGURATION! from Almost Twins A pity I couldn't get it to embed.

Nice 1200, Pete.

Blowing the pic up in Photoshop, the logo on the headband sort-of looks like the old Pioneer logo, but I'd not want to testify to that in court. *chuckle* I discovered that site way before I found head-fi. I remember when it was hosted at listen.to/headph0nes. Maybe this is something I shouldn't be bragging about. Sadly, I don't have any. It was posted to a random pictures feed I watch with the caption "whoa shit" or something.

Phew. Vintage Pioneers? I realize that's not much help. Also, you're familiar with this site, right?

I'm dyslexic, so don't trust me to spell anything correctly, but I'm pretty sure the word is sporadic(k).

Quite nice. Can we get a shot a shot of the back? I'm curious to that iteration has for I/O.

You've made out quite well by them, haven't you? Especially compared to certain dick weasels.

Shee-it, I didn't buy it, but Car & Driver just emailed me, offering a two year subscription for $8. It's been over a year since my C&D subscription lapsed, and I've really no interest in them any more (even after they canned that fat blowhard Brock Yates.)

"The Robot Body Establishes the Light" Comes with giant archaic police baton, an assault rifle, a shield that doesn't fit anywhere, and four inexplicable missiles.

like the contents of your handbag / you don't know why it's there / people ask you where you're going / you just answer "anywhere" I used to love that album back in my college radio days. I don't think I've heard it in over a decade.
