Gonna be a heavy new album I think.

That's not allowed anymore. But the foxes are doing their best to swing public sentiment behind a revival of the practice!

Awoken at 2:00 am by a commotion in the garden. It was the fucking foxes, fucking

Most excellent lunch with Colin. Think he took pictures. Afterwards retreated to my spiritual home ...

Happy Birthday Al!

Jezza needs to get off the sauce, I think.

Nouveau riche has been a synonym for poor taste for a long time. No reason to expect the Chinese, Russians etc. to act much different.

Sets up a classic "Your Mom" joke ...

Leave it to Biver.

That was red vodka.

Downtime lasting days is a fairly substantial fail. Jay-Z is going to have to choke a bitch.

Just to aggravate you tossers, I'm going to get my old one fixed and put that back to work ...

I need* a new iMac. Opinions solicited as to whether the 5K display is worth paying for if I don't watch anything (other than funny cat GIFs) on the computer? Also, how much RAM is enough and all-flash memory or Fusion Drive? Much obliged! (* Yeah yeah.)

Mark Knopfler -- Tracker

Enjoy! I'll be back to steal your bandwidth one of these days ...

TIDAL desktop client is down today. Currently listening to Qobuz FLAC 44.1/16 stream, which also sounds very good. Last I heard they were pretty much bankrupt, but any port in a storm!

Twin Shadow -- Eclipse There are some CHVRCHES-calibre bangers on this that definitely make it worth a listen. Very different from the last album, which I loved, so still processing that.

Nice! Still think the Opus 21 is one of the best-sounding players around.

Ben Clymer had a great article on Rolex earlier this week. http://www.hodinkee.com/blog/inside-rolex

Twist my rubber arm! Blue on a bracelet is a probable sale to me. Need to see the color in the metal.

I don't have any watches over 40mm either but have certainly been tempted by the Pelagos a couple of times. Currently noodling over getting a Breguet Type XX, as I'd like to try a Lemania-based chrono.

Think Jeff is just saying that a Mk. 2 Pelagos with an in-house COSC movement would be an insta-kop.

I like the size and the case and bracelet designs. Not wild about the yellow accents or dial layout and the crown looks a bit bulbous.
