  1. Okay, so that's a yes.
  2. Correct me if I'm wrong, but it's more than twice the space, innit, since some of it is used by the OS and apps and stuff? Probably only necessary if you're actually going to store movies on it, or great googobs of MP3's and/or lossless audio files.
  3. Owl be watching you owl is awsum. Me: Sam Adams Boston Lager -- good. Sam Adams Winter Lager -- even better.
  4. Yeah, I never get tired of that Pepper Love image.
  5. Yes, I know, it just didn't strike me that Dan was a 'me too' kind of guy, hence the question.
  6. [pedant]It's not a cat.[/pedant] ...'cause it's so much better to know that you're drinking weasel poo.
  7. I have to ask: was this done ironically? Or are you really that far gone?
  8. Growlers sampler Sent from mah Droid
  9. Long Distance Calling -- dig!
  10. Me: Southern Tier Big Red...good, but not great -- I am getting truly spoiled -- I am getting to the point where I'm thinking along the lines of, "life's too short (as the lemming said) for anything less than great beers". (makes a note of it to add to his list of Malbecs to hunt for...wait, where's that list?...realizes he left at work...remakes list)
  11. Google Person Finder I don't actually know anyone over there -- other than the people on the board. Hope they're okay. Please post when you get a chance, guys.
  12. (sighs) I guess. And since I'm not directly affected, I guess I can't complain too much, but emelius is a bud, so I feel for him.
  13. Damn, that sucks, dude. They're growing like never before, so they're going to reduce availability? What kind of (drunken?) rationale is that? And thanks for the recs, Jacob, I'll definitely take those notes with me -- all of my favorite beer joints, Norm's in Virginia, Perfect Pour and Belby's in Maryland, Total Wine, Whole Foods, Wegman's, etc. -- all are pretty good about beer, too, so I'll definitely look for all of those.
  14. Under $20 is certainly good, especially since I'm still in the experimenting stage. Thanks for the recs!
  15. Happy Birthday!
  16. Trying to order it, but it's not working.
  17. I do that anyway. The employee recommendations thing, not the black cork thing (there are black corks?).
  18. Just came back from Oh Land/OMD. 's'awesome to hear good synthpop played in a concert scenario. For the 9:30 club, sound was pretty good for OMD. For Oh Land, not so much -- someone left the subwoofers on "Black Sabbath". Or maybe it was the "Rave" setting. I can never tell the difference. I still bought her album, because what I could hear sounded really good. Washington DC area audience was surprisingly energetic and responsive, making OMD feel like returning heroes, and Andy McCluskey has an amazing frenetic energy (which I'm told he always had) -- I hope I work my way up to having that much energy by the time I'm 51. Superb show. They played all of my favourites except The New Stone Age, which he warned us at the beginning he wouldn't (something to the effect of, "we didn't know what to play, so we're playing it safe -- those of you who came for the wierd stuff are going to be disappointed" -- he was just managing expectations, and I think it was the right thing to do -- I grieved for a fraction of a second, and then got over it, just like that (snaps fingers)).
  19. Dan, I told someone that I was going to try to get back into wine, and was recommended to try a Malbec or two -- you like? You happen to know the ABV? Me: as posted elsewhere, I had an Old Rasputin and a Raisin d'Etre on tap earlier, wasn't going to have anything else, but I feel like crying in a beer, so I'll have a Sam Adams Boston lager or something. Perhaps a pumpkin ale. I don't know -- "a beer".
  20. My condolences to those who have lost someone close to you, and to their loved ones. Yeah, don't discount her yet. The ones that come through are the ones with a good support structure. My most positive, most healthiest, most healing thoughts and vibes in a generally Southern direction for Mike's mom-in-law. And yeah, what Dinny said. Please, don't ever let it be you, to be that one.
  21. Yeah, some of these guys drink liquid moss.
  22. Use mah link -- I just got two vouchers for $60 worth of tea for $25.
  23. Also, why would they be fighting in the sewers?
  24. Thanks! (...but they won't take my credit card.)
