I'm with you Justin. The 3a is pretty much the only piece of audio gear that I actually want to buy but any hiss in equipment drives me nuts (YMMV). I hope they figure it out.

Good luck at the half

New power adapter for my trusty 10+year old Braun shaver...

^nice. I really like mine. I also like the squeezebox radio for rooms where you don't really care about the audio. It still sounds pretty good though.

^ Beautiful

Glad it worked out. I can not do a track stand. My recent bike fall related injuries are just about healed.

Stroller system and crib

Good luck with the daycare. They are pretty expensive around here at 12 to 15k but nothing like some other areas of the country.

Happy Birthday!

Darn... If you shot nikon I'd sell you one cheap.

A new stem for bike #2 as I discovered that the reason my knee was hurting was I was 1cm too damn far back on the saddle....

In short: Yes I also did measurements and other fun things: I have a DEQ2496 and I would disagree about the abysmal part but that's my ears. I did a blind test with my Bel Canto DAC3 and a Weiss DAC2 and never heard any difference when volume matched and listening to music. YMMV I guess.

Happy Birthday to you sir!

Happy Birthday Mike! Hope you have a good one

All this rum talk mixed with my finally finding out my raise (happy) make me want a rum rather badly. Too bad it will blow my damn diet.

Brum was a fermented wine not a distilled liquor based on sugar cane(I.e. rum)

Rum is indigenous to only one place: Barbados. We invented it

Nope. Engineer

Overtime? What's that. My first year at this job I worked about 400-600 extra hours for free (2000 is what I'm paid for). I try to keep it below 200 these days but sometimes it happens anyway.

I did not learn what my raise was because my boss was way to busy to take the 10 minutes to tell me I guess

Congrats on the raise Brent! I get to find out what my raise is today. I was supposed to find out on Tuesday but forgot and my boss was swamped yesterday. Today I also get to tell the people who work for me what their raises are which is less fun... To counteract that nut punch I just submitted an abstract for a conference in Sweden but I've struck out 2x before at this conference so wish me luck.

Happy Birthday CJ!

Got $60 in roaming removed from my AT&T wireless bill. This new Android phone uses so much more data than my old phone it's ridiculous. It was nice of AT&T to remove it and I was not expecting it, I was just hoping to back date my roaming plan...

Congrats on the job Bryan. That's awesome!
