How Y'All doin' Hoboken Bitches! Sorry for my absence of late Al, been doing fieldwork during the day so this old man is very tired in the evenings. Getting back in the saddle with a CEO Cocktail 2 oz Brandy 1/2 oz Chambord or crème de cassis 1 oz Lillet Blanc 2 dashes orange bitters a lemon twist (apply as garnish before serving). Shake with ice and strain into a chilled cocktail glass.

Al can hire Jeff to watch Colin.

Damn that sounds cool. I wish I could take that course.

That is great news Al, congratulations to your daughter. Is it a general program or discipline specific?

I must be the outlier here. I initially liked it a lot but as it progresses I find myself becoming less interested in watching. None of the characters are particularly well developed and the story is not particularly engaging. I will finish out the season and hope for better. On Sundays I have been looking forward to watching The Killing a lot more.

Happy Biscuit Day Brent. Hope you get a nice big steak for birthday dinner.

Happy Birthday Jin!

Happy Birthday Raffy.

Have a Happy Birthday good sir.

I'm rooting for Tampa since we bought Peter a Bolts jersey when we were there for TamJam.

Sounds heavenly.

or both. I haven't really looked at any others in that size range. I went up to the A5's and never looked back. The real problem is that they don't sound better than really cheap WalMart speakers (HPA's comments not withstanding) and yet cost $200.

Then you are wrong.

Outstanding news Nate. Congratulations to you and the whole family. Hoping Andrew's breathing stabilizes soon.

I wasn't surprised at all. He obviously thinks that a BS in EE makes him the fount of all audio knowledge. In his case BS is the appropriate initials for his degree but it is not short for Bachelor of Science.

Good Plans. Nothing worse on a trip than a giant MBP, except a fat-ass Dell.

I'll be interested to see what the battery life numbers are with the new processors.

I think I will wait for them to get more than 5 hours battery life.

Not really, but I'm not wedded to it. I also like to know what I am worth on the job market, although usually that is a bit depressing. Thanks Steve. I've actually been to Anchorage twice before, but for a relatively short time. I liked it a lot and always thought it would not be a bad place to live at all. Yes, yes I am. Ecological genetics and biostatistics and it is a wildlife statistician position. I cannot fundamentally disagree with that statement. The likelihood is that nothing will come of it.

Let me know when both of these are happening and I will try to escape from The Land of Shite Beer.

Congrats Brother-of-Dan! Yesterday Karen left to be part of an EPA panel in DC. So Peter and I had a nice father and son day. Dropped him off at school in the morning and then puttered around the house trying to get things knocked off the honey-do list. Picked him up a bit early from the after-school program so we could get in 1 1/2 hours of Lego Pirates of the Caribbean on the Wii. Then off to soccer practice and then dinner at Los Potrillos. Came home got him bathed read some magic tree house and off to bed. I was frickin' exhausted. Currently working on an application for a statistician position with the Feds out of Anchorage. Not sure if I will really send it but I need to update my CV anyway, so what the hell.

Yeah, I originally tried the A2s on the Tyll designed Headroom stands (still one of the best audio purchases I have ever made) and saying they sounded like ass was being kind. Few things in audio have been night and day differences to me but the A5s vs the A2s is definitely one. No side by side necessary or blind test needed here. (waiting for the )
