I've been taking that in gelcap form lately. Mostly because it was the only one that was available in the small size when I was in California -- I usually do the salmon oil gelcap from the same brand. Mine says to keep it in a cool dry place, but explicitly not in the refridgerator -- any idea why?

Jacob -- back when I lived in College Park, something similar happened to me. When I went outside for a run, I found out that it was significantly cooler outside, and not only was the a/c not working, but it was actually heating the apartment up. My point: you may want to check outside. Maybe you ought to stay in the basement tonight?

Vicki -- yeezh. Jacob -- yeezh. New, "glam" lizard species discovered.

You mean the gun/cat, your avatar? Or was it slightly different?

Faux-rizona -- why do you taste so good? You taste just like chocolate milk sometimes, and yet you don't look like chocolate milk.

"Double feature."

That's nothing. I kind of wish someone would do a similar video of the one outside my office (Wilson Blvd & N Lynn St), but I'll fully admit I'd probably be on it (aggressive yield and failure to yield). One of the problems is, if you're heading North on N Lynn St and making a right onto Wilson Blvd, there's no good time to actually perform the turn -- when you have the green light, the pedestrians walking along N Lynn crossing Wilson have the walk signal, and there's hardly ever a break in the foot traffic (they get the walk signal before the light turns green, and they'll be more than happy to finish crossing if they entered the intersection when the walk signal told them they only had one second remaining); when you have the red light, the pedestrians crossing your path traveling along Wilson crossing N Lynn have the right of way, and on top of that, you can't see oncoming traffic from up Wilson. Plus, people will cross Wilson if they don't see cars coming, even though it's against the light. And there are taxis, buses, and delivery trucks stopped right on that corner all the time, so it's hard to tell if someone is pulled over because they're actually stopped, or if they're trying to make the turn, so if you're too laid back about it, there's the danger of someone trying to go around you and cutting you off from making the turn that way. I'll go out of my way so that I don't have to make that turn, but when you're coming in from 50, there's no good way to avoid it, and when I come in to work from GW Parkway -- which is what I do when I'm coming straight in to work -- that's the way to come in. Although there appeared to be a lot more cyclists in NY than I think I see in the DC area.

HawGarBarZa Start with Hawaiian pizza (ham and pineapple) -- substitute barbecue chicken for the ham; add roasted garlic (in this case, zpizza offer it as one of their sauces) -- voila, you have my new favorite pizza. That said -- Gordon Biersch did an outstanding version of it the other day -- probably my favorite yet.

I don't know -- this one was subtler, but the editing in the other one was better. I guess it depends on whether you prefer tragic drama or horror. On the other hand, whichever you prefer, it's called BEING AWSUM.

Wait, what? So we would need to somehow get the signal converted to S/PDIF without losing resolution if we wanted full resolution of, for example, our HDTracks and Linn records purchases (and needledrops)? I think Monkey's question wasn't really answered -- if my understanding was correct, the amp does the crossover, the correction, and EQ, but the controls are in the computer, so the computer "tells" the JH3A what to do, and then you can disconnect it. Not sure if the JH3A has any controls on it at all. Is this still the case? Looking at the JH3A page(s), it looks like it has digitally controlled volume and bass boost controls.

(tries to think of some clever pan-&-scan vs. widescreen reference, comes up short)

Well, they didn't do nuthin' for me, so...lpppt. Me:

Underworld, Second Toughest of the Infants -- something superlatively sublime about opening with quite possibly their most epic "Juanita"/"Kiteless"/"To Dream of Love".

Lo Tengo malbec. With a 3D label. [Keanu Reeves]Whoa.[/Keanu Reeves] Cheers, all. Agreed.

(wiggles eyebrows, snickers)

You're so cute when you're sad.

And if your real estate is underground: MineMine. You mean, sort of like the new Air? No wait, because that doesn't exist.

It's called, "being awsum".

Sorry, Al.

(squints)

I really think he missed an opportunity to call it CloudMine. I'm going to start a competing computer company (to all of Microsoft Windowses, Apple, and linux), and I'm going to name all the apps ___Mine. In fact, fuck the operating system, I'm just going to start calling everything mine. My cats are no longer cats, they are FelinesMine. Real estate is LandMine. Car? TransportMine. Stereo? MusicMine. Wife? ConcubineMine.

The Wharfedales are definitely worth a shot -- I've heard good things about them, though no experience myself.

Earlier was listening to Rewiring Genesis: A Tribute to The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway -- some very interesting choices here, despite being mostly a very faithful re-recording/cover version of the entire album. Then Within Temptation, The Unforgiving -- my favorite track is definitely "Iron", although I really like several of the tracks that follow it. I think "Stairway to the Skies" & "Sinéad" might be vying for second place.
