January 21, 201214 yr comment_493071 Will be heading to the Seattle meet today. Main goal is to hear Doc B's PCM1704 DAC...hope he can bring the prototype he's hinted at. Otherwise, mixed feelings about this meet. The general disorganization of the Seattle group reigns supreme, yet nobody seems to care. Weird. I must be a picky bitch. Oh well, looks like some cool raffle items so maybe I'll luck out. http://www.head-fi.org/t/576440/seattle-meet-front-panel-express-1-21-2012 for reference.

January 21, 201214 yr comment_493078 What is worse than having to spend your Saturday reading job application files? Having your internet go out every hour while trying to access the files and then having to go into work to finish it. Thanks a lot comcast. Report
January 21, 201214 yr comment_493081 ^ I see Comcast is just as reliable in Texas as it is in Mass (I'm happy to report I no longer use their service). Just finished clearing off the driveway while my daughter and my wife played in the snow. It was probably one of the easiest shoveling I've done in a while. Report
January 21, 201214 yr comment_493082 Been there, Shelly, bummer to have to go thru it. Last big storm here, we actually kept electricity but lost all Comcast services (phone, TV, internet) for 3-4 days IIRC. Made for a weird life Me today: went to visit a friend recovering from some surgery. It's the third time they've gone in, and they found out they'll need to do one more again. He wasn't happy. But it's not terminal by any means, and he'll eventually be OK. Report
January 22, 201214 yr comment_493114 Shelly, sorry to hear. Got a call last night and had to head into work at midnight for several hours. Day of office travels. Report
January 22, 201214 yr comment_493135 Got a call last night and had to head into work at midnight for several hours. Sure, that's what you told Mel. You really just went there for some shut eye. Report
January 22, 201214 yr comment_493140 Sure, that's what you told Mel. You really just went there for some shut eye. I've used it for "in-law" avoidance recently. Perhaps I need to expand the system. Zzzzz. Report
January 22, 201214 yr comment_493195 Currently sitting at the airport, headed to the pac-west for a week of training. Report
January 23, 201214 yr comment_493315 Finally at the hotel, sleepy time. Unsurprisingly it's overcast and misting... Report
January 23, 201214 yr comment_493316 ^That's a long day of travel. That is one good thing about living in the middle of the country (and in a city with a hub). Report
January 23, 201214 yr comment_493358 Naw, a long day of travel is 16-20+ hours of driving 16hrs of driving, sitting, flying, sitting, flying, driving seemed long enough. And yeah, Shelly, you've got to love the Gov who only cares about the lowest fare and not the shortest travel time. At least all of yesterday goes in the books as comp time that I can use as vacation time. Report
January 23, 201214 yr comment_493420 The people next door were having some kind of party for kids, apparently. An ice cream truck showed up and parked on the road right in front of my house. Then for about 30 minutes, all I heard was, "Da da - da da da, da da - da da dum, Da da, da da dada, da dada - da dum." Over and over and over again... Edited January 23, 201214 yr by Wmcmanus Report

Why didn't you just pick out a pair of sealed headphones and make it go away? Report
January 24, 201214 yr comment_493428 Oh, and as for what I did today. Took the ferry from Bremerton into Seattle and spent a few hours walking around. It was a very un-Seattle day with clear skies and temps in the upper 40s. Couldn't have asked for better. Seattle seems to be a nice place and if the weather wasn't shit for 350 days out of the year I think I could live here. Report
January 24, 201214 yr comment_493434 It's actually nice may-september in seattle, they just don't like admitting that. Report
January 24, 201214 yr comment_493438 Why didn't you pick out a double-barrel shotgun and make it go away? Or call in an air strike. Remember, this is HC. Report

Sounds nice... except for the upper 40s but I guess that isn't too bad for someone from the NE. Report
