  1. Oh, but it can be...
  2. Finally got home from the office and I am now toasting to Lily Kathleen Maher with the Glenmorangie Extremely Rare 18 yr. To your health and that of your parents, young lady! cheers
  3. Super-duper congratulations Papa Nate! Fun times! EDIT: Substitute "Announcement" for "Thread"
  4. Mini-cupcake left over from my daughter's birthday. Lemon Drop. Yum.
  5. Grats on the new job Jacob! Good luck chewing!
  6. I'm glad you like the Sigs, TM. I definitely prefer them to the pros, and have had neilvg's pair basically since spritzer sold them to him. I don't think he has heard them yet, but between moving into a new place and the economy going to shit he seems to be busy. Anyway, if you cannot sell the Benchmark (present from wife?) then get the GES. The sigs sound nice on the prototype and I am certainly considering the GES if/when I upgrade from the 007t. I think that would take away some of the etch/brightness that can be attributed to the SRM-1, plus it can warm up the Benchmark's signal a bit for you. I bet it will be a good combo.
  7. Sorry about that Dan. Without the attack part, I had to put my last dog down at 14.5 years and it was still hard as hell. Take it easy.
  8. The Freqs look cool! I will figure out cost plus shipping once I figure out how to do the shipping
  9. Went a little nutty at BevMo supposedly picking up the Black Maple Hill for tyrion. I added The McCallan 10 year Fine Oak for daily consumption and Glenmorangie 18 year Extremely Rare for my own stores. I saw that DogFishHead 90 Minute was available--new to west coast--and picked up a 4-pack. I also got some Hop Rod Rye 22s and a bottle of Leblon Pure Cane Brazilian Rum with a muddler for some Caipihrinias. Mmm. JP is coming over tonight impromptu so we will be trying a few of these I am sure. One less DFH 90 min. already, but he will be here soon...
  10. Smoking bass?
  11. Do they get a cut? Get it, a cut. Oh, and good luck on the interview Jacob!
  12. Beetle Bailey
  13. Sorry it is a hassle. Might want to open it up and check the connections on the first input. I have had broken wires on RCAs and it will work fine, then not, then a little because the connection is sometimes made. I could probably give it a shot.
  14. Congrats on the new amp and crumbly cans Vincent. If I don't sell it soon, maybe for fun I should send you the ED-1 EQ-type deal that pairs up with the SRM-1/MkII. Has an interesting effect on the sound. Sometimes good, sometimes bad. Good thing it has a bypass switch!

    Happened to me once where the tire blew right before a tunnel and I had to drive my Audi out to the other side before I could stop. The tire was shredded and the rim was mangled. Happened on the way to a funeral of one of my high school friends, who was also my college roommate back in the day.
  16. Don't fuck with the blues man, woman!
  17. Hope you have a happy and music-filled birthday, Young (or not so young, as the case may be!). If your handle includes your birth year, then you and I are officially the same age: over the hill! Have a drink and forget about it, that's what I do. Cheers!
  18. Maybe a bad transition, but you reminded me of the outrageous lyrics in Albert King's Answer to the Laundromat Blues that I was listening to last night: This number's bein' especially played And dedicated to all of the women From all of the men) You see you women have a good thing goin' But we hip to ya now You take two or three pieces And go down to the laundromat An' take ya eight hours to wash 'em No good! We gonna buy ya washers and dryers And we're gonna put ya at home in the basement And we gonna kick the door down that goes to the basement While we can hear the washer when it stop And baby, baby, baby, when that washer stop You better be though Or you better have a darn good explanation! Don't you go get whupped all on the toenails We're gonna raise your eye lashes and whup ya some And if ya run fast enough We're gonna whup ya on the bottom of the feet Ain't that right men? Speak up for yourself! (yeah, yeah) There will be no more goin' to the laundromat Puttin' your clothes in there And gettin' your girlfriend keep her eye on it While you step out the back door You better take my advice You might need it on your vacation this summer I'd hate to see ya come up with a leg screwed off Or a eye punched out Yeah! Whoa! yeah, yeah! I know you don't know it babe (yeah, yeah, yeah) But things look bad for you Hey, I know you don't know it babe But I'm gonna keep a close eye on you Well, ev'ry time you go to the laundromat, baby I want you to know, I want you to know That I'll be there too!
  19. So sorry to disappoint. Although I think people are knee-jerk against those cans, my response was not meant to be taken in full seriousness, thus the Cartman.
  20. All of you Ed. 9 haters can go fuck yourselves. Come over and hear them balanced on my SDS-XLR or Beta22 and then tell me they suck so much. They do have a pretty unique sound signature and take some adjustment to get them -- so it is not really viable to swap back and forth -- but they have some positive attributes not easily found in closed cans.
  21. They're practically slippers, but they have light rubber soles so they pass as shoes.
  22. I think Beyers basically suck and Darth Beyers suck utterly and completely. Sorry Ken, I know you don't take offense Vincent funny. Nate silly.
  23. I have these Fluevog's as well as a cool pair of boots I bought in Boston about 20 years ago.
