yah, I finally agreed to a refi when they came back with no points, no fees.

I've surprised loan officers several times when they would offer a refi that would save me 2%, but where the fees were so high it was a 10 year payoff. I guess most people fall for that.

payback from 4.85 to 3.75ish is probably quite a while, unless you can get a no cost deal

no no, we say that expensive stax with more expensive amps are the best thing since sliced bread. We're not really a value oriented group. And that's why you should spend more time reading

Sharon is why Ozzy's not broke and homeless, so I'll give her the benefit of the doubt. I also believe there are probably reasons they wouldn't guarantee him multiple days or the sole drummer spot.

This is NOTHING like that. It's more like Dresden Dolls with a full band.

Ooh, actually, the rig I listen to the absolute most is also under $500 afore mentioned behringer, plus airmotiv 4s. I have a mixer in between, but it's just a passive volume control, and the speakers have volume knobs.

it does if you like them

Oh, I probably am not keeping the grado rig, I enjoy my grados, but the ATH-W10VTGs and JH13s are really all I need for headphones. I just bought them because I got a phenomenal deal on them, and I hadn't heard the RS2s. Same for the Glite.

Actually, I may be able to add a speaker rig to that combo, and STILL be under $500. Realistic STA-111 and Minimus 7 speakers. I'm probably within $50 of $500 including them.

I have a rig that's pretty close now. Used RS2s, Used Glite, and Behringer DEQ2496. I paid less than $500 for the 3 together.

I was just going to post that

7 cups of water to 1 cup of grounds, medium grind (like french press grind) mix thoroughly, then let it sit 12-36 hours strain through a coffee filter (I use the gold filter from my zojirushi thermal carafe brewer, but any filter should work) refrigerate

My zojirushi is still hot as hell after 4 hrs. I have to pour it into another cup to cool down to where I can drink it.

get a good thermos, it'll keep it hot all day. The zojirushi and nissan thermoses are amazing What upped my consumption was cold brewing coffee. Iced coffee is crack.
