    There's one for Doug, too.
  2. Yeah, your six bar don't go far in Swellesley.
  3. It's not exactly as I pictured it when Mark said he had bought one. 11 Hawthorne Rd, Wellesley, MA 02481 | MLS# 70887134
  4. I liked Michael Lewis's take on the whole sorry mess last year. Lots of backstory, which answered a fair number of questions for me. Wall Street on the Tundra | vanityfair.com
  5. And now he's resonating at between 9 and 11Hz.
  6. And JH13s and HD800s and a DA-11.
  7. The The -- Soul Mining Vinyl.
  8. Naked Eyes -- Naked Eyes Vinyl.
  9. This kind of ban seems popular in this forum.
  10. They tried with Google Checkout. Hasn't got any traction.
  11. That's pretty cool. (Rehosted the picture.)
  12. Just watch your back on the erg and you'll be fine. Make sure you start off with proper form and don't come too far forward at the catch (the point at which your hands are closest to the flywheel) because it's that flexion that causes problems. Here's a good form video. I'll PM you some other links. http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-3677219739586281796&ei=M4xGS9jPF4aYlAft-6XDBw&q=proper+rowing+form
  13. Second dip. The Psychedelic Furs -- Midnight To Midnight Vinyl.
  14. Mmmm. Silizium crystals. Aaaarrggh.
  15. No worries, I'm over it.
  16. Let me know if you want some links to good training programs. I don't know if you've rowed before?
  17. :prettyprincess: So much pain awaits you.
  18. Back in the hunt for an integrated. Little more urgency now that I actually have some nice speakers and nothing to drive them with. Anyone have any experience with the Creek Destiny? There are a couple knocking around on A'gon and I see it comes highly recommended by LobsterFink himself as well as the usual suspects at Stereophile and TAS. Other random thoughts -- Unison Unico Primo, Primare I30? And please do ping me if you see an Integre DT or LFD Zero on offer anywhere else.
  19. Lucky dipping the Big Random Box of 80s Vinyl. The Blow Monkeys -- Animal Magic
  20. Yes, but no new DACs, sorry.
  21. I'd guess that since Koss is still pretty much a classic family business despite being nominally public (the float is tiny and barely traded even before the stock was perma-frozen) it's fate entirely depends on what resources the family still commands and their determination to continue, or otherwise. Since they are old-school and somewhat out of the geographic mainstream, I'd guess again that they probably have some pretty long-standing local banking relationships that may sustain them. Unless all their local banks were gobbled up by the national giants along the way. In which case they'll be left to swing in the wind.
  22. I just don't. So there.
  23. +1,000. I don't understand why they make that so hard. I'm glad the Android hardware is catching up. The more good choices, the better.
  24. I shall, Al. Forgot to mention I also bought about 45 used LPs and they gave me 15 of them free, which was jolly decent. These included all four proper Flock Of Seagulls albums, so to the posh new arrivals: "You'll play it! And you'll like it!"
