  1. Is it possible it just took that long to brainwash yourself into liking them?
  2. analog transformers
  3. Overheard this weekend: "I couldn't get an iPhone, so I'm going to go out and see Toy Story 3."
  4. Capt. Ahab, The End of Irony -- "I Don't Have A Dick" might be my single of the year. Technopop.
  5. Thank you, yes that.
  6. So...why are you announcing it? Forewarned is forearmed, and all that. Are you that evil (and cocky confident), that you feel you can announce it, and still not be rendered useless by some sort of magical defense? Here's the thing: idiocy and slack...er...whatever the "state" form of 'slacker' is -- they are both contributing to the general decline of the human population, I.E. evil-ness, of the natural variety. They don't even have to organize, because of the second law of thermodynamics -- the very nature of idiocy and slackness (hey!) contributes to the total entropy of the socio-ecosystem.
  7. Story of your life, neh?
  8. Having heard the Bryston in one of the best sounding systems I've ever heard, I'd say go with Bryston.

    Fucking doppelgangers.
  10. Yeah, I looked for the bock -- I don't think it's out out, yet (I.E. major retail chains -- Total Wine, Wegmans, etc.).
  11. You could also see how much you're thrashing, if you aren't, then that's not the problem. As Al said.
  12. Hurray! And: considering you paid for a new one, that's what you deserve. WRT fix vs. replace -- the idea being, if it was something simple, like the battery was in backwards. It wouldn't work then, right?
  13. from both "Sentimental" and "Normal", in entirely different contexts (Porcupine Tree/Steven Wilson) He also reuses the line, "I do a good impression of myself" from "Anesthetize": And: Porcupine Tree again, "Fear of a Blank Planet"
  14. Do we actually know anyone in Amsterdam? I mean, we should at least pick a town that we know someone in. And, of course, they would need to volunteer.
  15. I can't 'Nenso'.
  16. You want an empty? I have a half-drunken bottle that's probably flat by now -- I should pour it out.
  17. I don't think Amsterdam was mentioned seriously. Berlin? Personally, I wouldn't mind London, but the chances of me showing are < 50%, so weight my input accordingly.
  18. I lied -- I didn't listen to shit today.

  20. I'm probably overstating things, but it's not the kind of first impression I want to make. And then again, I could be stating things quite plainly. I really should not have let it get so out of hand.
  21. Am cleaning my office. New CFO doing a walk-through next week. I'll probably be looking for a job the week after, as I am nowhere near completion.
  22. Hopefully it's something they can fix easily (broken adapter? broken port? broken touchscreen? bad battery?), rather than having you wait some more.
  23. (dreamy look crosses face) This. Me, too (as soon as I can track down a copy).
  24. I like 'em already. They give good web.
  25. Would it be possible to put the drive in an external enclosure, attach to a different computer, delete the appropriate executables, and then try cleaning it? Just thinking outside the box, might be useless suggestion. (In my case, I'd just boot to my linux partition, mount the windows partition, and work on it that way.)
