Except that the PWT isn't a DAC.

Cat petting guide == inaccurate -- beyond kittenhood, you shouldn't pick up a cat by the scruff of the neck. The rear support part is good, though.

You mean, for Fringe, or on some absolute scale?

I'd probably ink if I saw that coming towards me.

Big Venetian Snares fan?

So they bait you with the temptation to upgrade sooner, and then switch their tone when you try to actually take them up on it? That's not much of a promotion.

I'd still go with FIOS, myself. I our FIOS. But that doesn't really answer your question, because I have zero experience with the alternative.

Story from college: I once woke up in "Freefaller" on the bathroom floor. My roommate at the time laughed at the tileprints on my face. My excuse: tequila. Got a girl's phone number that night, too, which is pretty good considering how drunk I was. Oh wait, that's right, she asked me -- must have been one of those attracted to alcoholic types. I think she dumped me when she realized I really wasn't an alcoholic.

You know, in Beer Wars, they showed that Hoegaarden got bought by the big bad -- why do you guys still buy that shit? I thought we didn't give money to Anheuser-Busch/InBev?

Moar beer. From memory: Wild Goose Oatmeal Stout Anchor Porter Some purple and black thing from Whole Foods, with a big 'nought' on it Some other things

Oh, and I almost forgot, I often start in "hanged man" (albeit, on the bed, not actually hanging): And no, the cat has nothing to do with that -- started long before I ever thought of having one -- although she does love the additional surface of enclosure.

They're not room filling speakers, but at the levels that I listen at, they are adequate for a normal size room. I have to admit I've never cranked them, though. I do remember turning them up a little bit, and they handled it better than my Spendor S3/5a's (which quickly get congested if pushed at all -- probably the sealed nature of those).

Posting this before I see what it means, but I think it means I'm a "Tosser & turner": I try to start out Soldier or Starfish, sometimes Yearner if I'm having a particularly bad night (doctor told me to sleep on my side for the apnea), often wake up as a Freefaller or Yearner, sometimes Foetus, but rarely. I could never be 'log' -- cat wouldn't allow it. Cat needs to be embraced at all times. Well, not "embraced" so much as "somewhat enclosed". Oh, and get back to work. I want to see that report YESTERDAY![/boss voice]

I have a drinking problem...can't figure out what to drink...
Dusty Chalk replied to Dusty Chalk's topic in Food and Drink
I think I've acquired River Horse, but I have so many of the Total Wine Mix'n'Match 6-packs, I'd have to go through them all to be sure. I think I need to start keeping track of everything I get. Anyone know of any software to do so? I know there exists for wine, but I don't know if it translates to beer. Question about storage -- when I went to the beer tasting, I actually ended up spending a lot of time talking to the Dominion guy. He mentioned (among other things) that you probably shouldn't store lower ABV beers for too long. Later in the conversation, I mentioned my problem with Millenium Ale (too strong for me), and he said that that one, for example, would be a good one to just put on a shelf and store for a while. For reference, it's 10.8%. Anyone else have a take on this? I probably have a bunch of beers in the 5-6-7% range, should I be drinking those first? What's the magic number? I.E. at what point would it probably be okay for an "extended cellaring"? Anyone have an opinion on this? Also, on a related note, what's the take on refrigerated beer? I was taught -- and admittedly, this was long ago -- that once you refrigerate a beer, you should keep it refrigerated. Is this true? I found some Dominion Baltic Porter, but it was refrigerated, and I'm afraid my housemate will get pissed if I fill up the fridge with too much more beer. Would it be alright to put it in the cellar (we do have one)? -

Translation: Princess 'Roza' (Rose?) and her friend, Poop from Toilet EDIT: I just wanted people to know that that was exactly what it looked like, and not some unfortunate art/language/whatever accident.

Amongst other things, upgraded Ubuntu to 10.4 or whatever the new release is. Splash screen is...well, you'll see. And now the close-screen X's are on the left. I need to figure out how to put them back. I'm doubling my mouse traversal.

4 Impulse! SACD's, apparently

Epic Oreo cookie is epic.

And the coolness of the cover (and the promise of the opening "In the Evening"), did nothing to deter that concerned feeling when you went to your turntable 5 minutes into "Carouselambra" and discovered it was only half over. Me, in the car: Pain Of Salvation -- jesus christ I love this new record, completely different direction for them, almost sounds like Jack White. Awesome guitar tones, and I love overdriven bass.

Eliminates rattle?

I don't know man, maybe the only reason kitty's got a gun is because no-one knows how to pet her quite right.

Okay, now I might get an iPad.
