  1. I thought you said the best time of your life was when you were practicing the most.
  2. /me likes this.
  3. I'm actually more excited about the A/C.
  4. My ex called them rubber baby buggy bumpers the other day -- I lollered. Of course, someone should call them 'rubber deathgrip buggy bumpers'.
  5. Glad you're better, Knucks.
  6. I meant "how to touch it". No wait, that's not what I meant...
  7. If anyone stumbles upon the Motorola Droid's Achilles' Heel, I'd be interested to know what to avoid.
  8. The virtual tour is a nice touch. I've been wanting to run up and down the aisles of some of the better places I've visited with a video camera, but chickened out.
  9. First of all, I believe this. But I don't think it's a matter of "everyone else is doing it, why can't we?" I think it's of a matter of (a) some phones are more prone to it than others -- mechanical engineering -wise; and ( some phones are more prone to it than others -- ergonomically. (I.E. the actual mechanics of each phones' antenna, and where the bad spot is relative to how most people hold it, respectively.) I think they downplayed this aspect from what little I know, and I am definitely looking forward to more information on this in the future (and I have no doubt there will be more information, as every cell phone company in the world rushes to prove that they're better for whatever reason). (I'm not looking forward to filtering out the information from the copy, however.) Oh, and whoever the author of that "Apple has to issue a recall" article is probably eating his hat right now.
  10. Thanks, I think I just decided what I'm going to have for dinner tonight (Ray's Hellburger).
  11. How was the 3 Floyds, and what did you end up picking?
  12. Sometimes I line 'em up, sometimes others line 'em up for me.
  13. Brats == children meats?
  14. Yeah, those internal dilemmas can be exhausting.
  15. Alright: Gorillas are a lot easier to hit with large caliber slugs than a snake...or even a meerkat.
  16. Gorillas are a lot easier to hit with a wide-scatter shotgun than a snake...or even a meerkat.
  17. So they cancel each other out, and you're just 'meh'?
  18. I wonder how Jacob is doing -- apple fanboy vs. pedant (Jobs declares "antenna-gate") == internal dilemma.
  19. Woke me up...or perhaps it woke the cat up which woke me up, but...either way...I was too tired to investigate what it was at the time (didn't know it was an earthquake, thought it might have been a big tanker-truck collision on 270). Justin -- you can now say that you can literally sleep through an earthquake...without whisk(e)y being involved.
  20. Sun Kil Moon, April
  21. Yeezh.
  22. By the way, here is very likely a way in which burn-in makes things worse. And it's not isolated, it's quite repeatable, and has been (repeated). Specifically, the line about "...maybe the electrolytic caps are getting leaky (they do get hot inside the chassis)..." being the probable cause for the deterioration of that amp. EDIT: PS I'm not saying this to push your buttons, piss you off, continue an argument, or any of those things. I say it because I am one of those fucknuts who honestly believes he's heard it (burn-in), and I'm trying to understand it. You guys are smart, perhaps you can explain it to me, most of those fucknuts couldn't explain things to me to my level of satisfaction, because they also believe power cords make a difference, and that's pretty much where I draw the line. PPS I am also -- other than alcohol and caffeine and allergy meds -- drug-free. Alright, that's a lot of exceptions. Certainly hallucinogenic-free.
