  1. I've lost 15lbs in the last month on a simple regimen of influenza, followed by bronchitis, followed by gastroenteritis. There are some minor downsides, like wasting your morning in the radiology clinic as I am right now. For some reason, chronic cough plus sudden weight loss seems to make doctors think in a certain specific direction.
  2. The silver/black ones remind me of a certain fruit company's current color scheme, if not design aesthetic.
  3. I'm going to go out on a limb here and predict that the initial reviews on Head-Fi will be pretty uniformly positive.
  4. How hard are these going to be to drive properly?
  5. They're fat bastards, aren't they? Get on mah heed!
  6. Mark Knopfler & Emmylou Harris -- All The Roadrunning
  7. My lack of riposte does not imply agreement with your position. I've simply lost interest.
  8. Snappers are crazy. I worked with some good ones and they were a whole lot of fun to hang around with. Several of them are now dead, sadly.
  9. Nice early Stephenson reference! Now tell us you also read "The Big U" when it was still out of print.
  10. I guess it's a step forward, and 256kbps AAC actually sounds pretty good. But I'm confused by the whole "iTunes Plus" upgrade thing. Why should I pay 30c to convert a 128kbps file that I (foolishly) paid 99c for to a 256kbps file that is now also available for 99c? I understand if you were moving up a pricing tier, but that's not the case. It just feels like a gouge.
  11. ^^^ I like Ian's album covers better! Eels -- Souljacker
  12. Got puked on. Did laundry. Got puked on again. Did laundry again. I'm still ahead of Sherwood, at least.

    Deals

    Knuckles and I both bought from that seller. He'll do them a lot cheaper than that if you haggle.
  14. +1 for fairly imminent Mini update with no fanfare at all. It might make money, but that doesn't mean Jobs doesn't despise it.
  15. I might or might not have your amp, which might or might not perform as advertised and I might or might not ship it to you provided you give me lots more money up front. Who could possibly object to that?
  16. Get out! And take that common sense with you!
