Maybe something from the Spanish Inquisition era? Chant of some sort? Srsly: I want to say it looks like a Miles Davis album cover (one of the drawn ones, like Bitches Brew), but I'm not familiar enough with all of them to say which one, just that artistically, it looks right...

Black...drip...tar...history...Uncle Tom's Cabin, uncensored? Alright, I give up, not a clue. Well, it is black history month...

Community OMG, that's awesome -- there's a reference to something Jacob said right here on the forum: Pierce: I want you to have this. It's a compact record, and it contains an audio file of your study group talking about you while you're out of the room. It's all here, burnt into this diskette by optical lasers. Shirley: I don't believe you. Pierce: I know, it sounds like science fiction...

Fax still down? They have a topping called "hot dog" -- it's basically the reverse of a chili dog -- chunks of hot dog distributed over a chili bowl. Not bad, but I think I prefer it the other way 'round.

No, I won't make that mistake again. I thought the frowny faces were because I didn't notice her. So I take it you're not interested in going? (Kinda late, but I could probably find a seat nearby if you do want to go. But I also didn't think you'd want to spend $75+ right now. But all you violinists are in the same club, so y'all let each other in to your concerts for free anyway, right?)

What? Oh. (ahem) I mean, it looks like a bunch of piano and violin works. (See above link.)

Nothing, but about to go get some chili (it's national chili day at Hard Times).

Looks like it's a bunch of solo violin works: link.

You're welcome to use my line: I have likened lawyers to taxi cab drivers -- you hate them, until you need one, then you want the best.

It's probably an issue with the actual connection right at the bottom of the earcup. That tended to be troublesome, IIRC. Oh, and: (insert gratuitous necromancy comment or image)

I think the difference is that once you recap it (and/or replace any other worn out parts, clean and lube the knobs, etc.), it becomes a quality product again. Whereas BPC (black plastic crap) remains BPC (here I'm talking about mostly solid state stuff -- and I don't mean discrete, because I have some quality old Pioneer solid state stuff).

I'll be in my bunk. Leaving my stress behind.

Pfff. I wish.

"Separate Lives" -- it is the worst of the 80's ballads -- pure evil...quite possibly more evil than Creed:

Oh yeah, there's that too.

Watched Castle last night over wireless -- not too shabby as long as I don't put my glasses on. Also, nice Firefly reference: His Mom: You've never heard of Serenity? Castle: (blank look) Also, they're going to be fucking finally putting the moves on each other by the end of the next episode, or you can call me mud. Woo. Fucking. Hoo. I'll be able to watch the first episode of the second season any day now (while the rest of the world is already up to ep. 5...fucking Hulu).

Does anyone else read MBA as Mac Book Amateur (i.E. non-Pro)...I mean, I know it means Air, but every once in a while...

One ticket to Hilary Hahn.

Sign language is, indeed, hilarious.

Fuck yeah. Still wish they had squoze it into the 15", though. Did they ever have a 1200 MBP before?

Agreed...and Genesis drummer Phil Collins and early Genesis singing Phil Collins are awesome as well. White Nights Phil Collins can get castrated, though. And ragging-on-Steve-Hackett Phil Collins can go take a flying fuck without a parachute nor a partner.

But New Order is so varietous -- are we talking Blue Monday New Order, Age of Consent New Order, Elegia New Order, or...? Rhetorical question, I'll go and listen to it myself. I like Cut/Copy, but I don't have that one, I don't think.

Oh Holy Shit, Strathmore is practically walking distance (alright, not really -- more like two miles)...I'm going if I don't have any conflicts. I'll have to bring my SACD's. Thanks! I probably would not have looked it up myself in time.

I lollered. I'm going to have to post that one at the office.
