Congrats on the S.O. Aura Me: Flew from San Francisco to San Diego to see my in-laws. Listened to the Pico Slim with my ER4-S and the Creative Zen as a source. I love that system. Sounds fucking awesome (to me).

I had a in-and-out burger for the first and probably the last time, good but not five guys good. Got Fabian Cancellara and others' signatures So stoked!

Yesterday: Got up early and flew to SFO with my wife. Went out to Alcatraz on a tour. Had dinner at "La Folie" as a splurge and it was awesome. Today: Got up early and did a 5 mile run with wife. It was slow for her but it was fine for me since I can't run worth shit. Then checked out where she used to live and had brunch where we used to go when we were first going out and I was in town visiting. Then went to the California Academy of Sciences which was cool. Tomorrow: My wife running Bay to Breakers tomorrow and I'll go and watch her finish.

I was trying to figure it out Yes you and justin and whoever are absolutely correct.

Well if it was a government contract and paid for by the government they own it, and control what it's supposed to be used for. At least that is the way it works on the several thousand government contracts that go on around here. Of course there could be very specific provisions in the contract that exempt this but I seriously doubt it.

One of my wifes friends is a Coast Guard officer assigned there to social duties and got us a tour. That said, you can write your congressperson and request a tour. I think that was in 1814

My bad. I assumed that you were using a university license of PSpice or some such to do the work, if it's just Spice then do whatever you want as you said. I guess I should never make an assumption with you Kevin. Ray's guy is still blatantly illegal.

Well the part I thought was awesome was the stories about the First lady saving the Lincoln portrait minutes before the British burned it down. The personal touches from each president etc that made the place their own and showed their humanity.

I very seriously doubt that the license for the circuit design software you use says that you are allowed to use it in the spare time etc for other things. Sorry but it's not all legal. It's very unlikely that they would ever go after you. Ray's guy on the government contract is absolutely without a doubt breaking both the software license as well as his contract with the government.

Marriage of Figaro at the National Opera. Went and saw it last week. Great performance in my opinion.

Went on a Whitehouse tour. That was awesome. I'm not a citizen (yet) but that kind of stuff really makes you love your country more.

Happy birthday!

spent the morning trying to update the maps in our GPS in preparation for our trip out to California. Can't wait to drive around the bay area chasing a bike race.

Indeed it is good shit. What he said. I've had it for a long time and it does the trick for me especially when traveling. Though I am intrigued by the new Cowon player that is supposed to have great audio.

Picked up my Pico slim. I finally have a real portable rig for my ER4-S

x2. People just don't get it.

Happy Birthday!

bad times... Me: misc bike shit.

I think the name is retarded and the asthetic is not my thing. Please don't hurt me. That said I was really really impressed with the 307a and I'm sure this thing sounds amazing. It better at that price though.

I honestly have no idea but I'm really glad I did.

Watched my wife do a half ironman. She's fucking impressive. I did a single lap of the bike course as a warm up for a time trial tomorrow. WTG boo.

I can entirely believe that there is very little sonic difference but I'm happy with my setup as it is and the gamma2 has more stuff to play with etc (filters etc). I have been looking for a easily transportable setup that can do optical in (I am currently using USB) and the gamma2 fits that bill. Now all I need is some really short RCAs to connect the two

I'm really rather stoked. It really sounds amazing. I still wonder about the JH13 but gamma2+AE2+ER-4s is a system that I could be happy with for good. Once it arrives for portable I will strap the slim to my Creative Zen and use it with the ER4S as well. Only bummer is the LOD for the creative and the P->S converter for the ER4s but it will be fine. I was thinking of getting a Zune HD but I'm going to wait and see for a while.

Happy Birthday!

Hooked up my new gamma2 and 32GB memory stick to my computer and now I have lossless music and a cool dac at work As far as work goes the rest of it is a total CF.
