  1. but they can be fixed
  2. congrats
  3. 2 new watch straps, one orange and one olive, for my daily wear watch. The stingray strap I'd had was falling apart, so I went less formal for it now.
  4. Yes, you called all of us fucking idiots, rather than anyone in particular. You really should consider a good detox program, so you can sober up. When you're sober, maybe you won't feel the need to go where you don't have anything useful to contribute.
  5. Cute, you call people here fucking idiots, but take offense to being called a punk ass and say do it to your face. I think it's safe to say that I feel confident that I'd have no problem calling you a punk ass to your face if we're ever in the same place, and I'll also say you're not worth walking across the street to see, let alone flying across country.
  6. you hit quote instead of modify. I deleted the quoted one
  7. You should be able to get an ATH-W10VTG in your price range, without an amp or dac, that will sound remarkably good straight from a usb soundcard. I'd lean more towards the HD580/600 instead of the 650 if you're not planning on dropping money on a top notch amp, however.
  8. $800 is a tough spot for a complete setup to be a big improvement over cheaper solutions. If you've got a mac, then a duet + senn hd580/hd600 or grado sr225, if you don't have a mac, then replace the duet with a pico. Or you can maximize amplification instead of source quality, and go with a headroom desktop, m3, ppx, millett max, gilmore lite, etc and a decent pc usb soundcard.

    Any hockey fans?

    I think Montreal can beat New York, and I like to think that Philadelphia has someone else taking them out tonight . New York isn't a rough and tumble team. They're a finicky offensive team filled with big egos. When they're all working together, they're great, when things go wrong, they collapse. Boston's a tougher team than New York. If Montreal dictates the pace of the series, they'll win.

    I understand why you're scared of the rangers

    Cute, he ask you to come here to post this, or are you just mark in a newbie suit?
  12. I voted for the TooleAudio Balanced Mosfet Amplifier. It's the sweet spot for me in terms of sound and features. It helps that it was built to my specifications, of course.
  13. I enjoyed this movie a lot. The Gogol Bordello soundtrack helped too.
  14. You could go yard saling, and find an old stereo to steal knobs from.
  15. That's beautiful

    The Alaska Department of Fish and Game, recently issued this bulletin: In light of the rising frequency of human/grizzly bear conflicts, the Alaska Department of Fish and Game is advising hikers, hunters, and fishermen to take extra precautions and keep alert of bears while in the field. "We advise outdoorsmen to wear noisy little bells on their clothing so as not to startle bears that aren't expecting them. We also advise outdoorsmen to carry pepper spray with them in case of an encounter with a bear. It is also a good idea to watch out for fresh signs of bear activity. Outdoorsmen should recognize the difference between black bear and grizzly bear manure: Black bear manure is smaller and contains lots of berries and squirrel fur. Grizzly bear manure has little bells in it and smells like pepper."

    The opposite photos could be done as well. Man I miss my old office 2 blocks from the fashion district.
  19. You can mount time capsule disks on windows (I think), but I believe you need your own software to back up to it, as time machine is part of OS X.
  20. Dow Corning makes some gasketting compound that might work. It's basically silicon caulk that is heat resistant and electrically insulating. That said, I'm not sure where you'd buy it. When I needed it, I grabbed a tube from the box at work (I used to work at dow corning).
  21. wash them in warm soapy water, then rinse clean, then dry while setting something heavy on them

    Staying awake

    In my mispent youth, I frequently went 72 hrs on minimal sleep. Now, after 24 I get punchy, and just go sleep.
  23. I'd never pick oak for anything if I have an option
  24. owning your own house takes away weekends faster than anything else unless you can afford a gardener and a handyman.
