It sounds like a mash-up...a not-good mash-up.

I have allergies, and I have allergies pretty bad, but I've never had anything like this. My condolences. I would almost go so far as to say that that doesn't sound like a typical allergic reaction. Next time it happens, take pictures, and bring them with you to an allergist (or at least your general practitioner). It does sound like a reaction of some sort, just not necessarily an allergic reaction. (I got corrected on this about something similar by my allergist, recently.)

I like my Wheatfield because it's a different "house sound" than the Singlepower; I think they complement each other nicely. Welcome to the Pete Millet fanclub.

Symbol, Talk Normal, Beeping Sleauty, and Mikroknytes -- I missed Beeping Sleauty, but enjoyed everyone else. They ranged from no-wave to experimental improvisation. I dug.

38. Meh. I could survive here if I wanted to (and did, when I felt like it) -- a grocery store, pharmacy, and small collection of restaurants are right around the corner. No book stores, movies, concerts, or music stores, though, so I guess they're right. Especially if you're into pens.

Alright, I went back to Pilin and had dessert there specifically because of this thread, and yes, the custard is served cold on warm rice. It was divine.

Yeah, a friend of mine recently played that for me. I was (totally blissed out)^2. Second only to Just for a Day in terms of bliss factor. (Not really comparable, except for my reaction to both of them.)

Dusty finds that video cameo-meme-ilicious!!!1!

NewEgg sells Cavalry USB/eSata, too.

You don't think I do that?

You know, I don't really have any problem with her not conceding, for two reasons. #1 -- it's the process, what's wrong with following the process? Instead of saying it's bad for the democratic party, one should point out that it's democracy in action. #2 -- what if what if what if. She's the first woman to ever run for that office, she's got a commitment to give it absolutely every chance to get in. Oh, well, it's all going to be a moot point, anyway. (MHO)

You do house calls? My TV is on the fritz, Fitz.

Yeah, but ear plugs still color the sound -- quite a bit more than any interconnect or resistor will.

Never heard of it, but sounds like something I'd be interested in. (wanders off to look up 'Sound Practices Magazine') You know you can buy it?

I only mentioned it, because it's one of the higher amp draws. And yeah, my point was that it only had two prongs in a perfectly legal manner. Toaster ovens, too. In fact, other than my high-fi, music, and computer gear, I can't think of too much I have that has three prongs.

Huzzah-buzzah.

They're pervasive up here and in Japan, at least. Even vacuum cleaners have two-prong plugs.

How long is that sale going on? Do I need a coupon? 33% is pretty good, I'll have to go look and see if I can find 3 disks I want.

Not at all, I get that all the time. I suspect it's my complete lack of maturity online that throws people. 's'truth.

I've been typing with a QWERTY keyboard since 1980 or so, ain't about to switch now. I guess it's a function of how well you know the keyboard already. It might trick you into concentrating and getting to know the keyboard better, so you may surpass where you would have been had you just maintained the status quo, however I have my doubts as to whether you would surpass yourself from where you would have been, had you concentrated on learning QWERTY keyboard. The theoretical ergonomic improvements (and lack of mechanical impediments) would provide small improvements at best.

I love that commercial.

It went up to $185 today, which is still a pretty great price. Also: 2 Terrabyter -- USB 2.0, so best for backups, but still...one should have backups...

It's just an expression.
