Plus Ken Kessler writes for them, and I <3 him.

Dam, I miss college.

So...lots of Black Sabbath and Motorhead, then?

I just subscribed a several months ago. Not cheap, but it's better than missing one of the popular issues (like the end-of-year issue, awards issue, and whatnot).

Rockhopper is a commercial manufacturer. 2x

Yup, can't start season 2 soon enough. And yes, I already know about the timing of the show getting cancelled.

Your mama didn't mind.

I didn't realize, but I just finished watching Season 1 of Deadwood last night. God damn. I don't know if it's the "best show evar!!!1!", but goddamn, it's a good show. No, wait, let me try that again, ...but goddamn, it's a good fucking show. That last episode was killer. The silent exchange between Trixie and Al just totally slayed me. A lot more to it than that, too. The fact that Al killed two people, and you ended up at least empathizing with him on both counts, if not completely sympathizing with him ("bag of shit") is definitely a score for the writers. And then they toy with your emotions with the whole Jewel's boots storyline.

I prefer liqueurs.

I think this is the key. You don't want to use just any old computer soundcard.

No, this is the second time -- I didn't jump down your throat on the Chinese electrostatic headphone post, neither.

a cat teepee ($6 because it's red with white tassles [i.E. christmassy]) -- haven't figured out how to get the cat into it yet, and she hasn't wandered in on her own

I would just like to point out that I am not "jumping down Aaron's throat". That is all.

Awesome.

Sony never dropped their licensing for SACD, making it not financially feasible for most non-Sony companies to develop a universal player. So as far as I'm concerned, Sony sabotaged that effort. It never became de rigueur to make a universal player, which is what really needs to happen to eliminate the confusion aspect. It's still early enough in the HD-DVD/Blu-Ray debacle to overcome that obstacle.

Alma Garrett is the babe for me. All that black she wears...teh hawt!!!uno!

Maybe if you lay it on the HA5000.

I'm not sure I agree with this. I agree that it could be confusing, but it could just as easily be solved by making universal players, then people wouldn't care.

How quiet -- I presume the fanless G4 cube is quieter, but...oh, I guess I could just go look around...

Anyone have any opinions on the G4 Mac Cube -- the fanless one?

QFI.

You never actually met "her", did you?

How is that? I'm seriously tempted to get a Mac mini and a Duet for a computer-as-source setup. Wouldn't hurt that it was capable of doing other things as well.
