Wow, that seems rather cheap. Interested to hear what Mike thinks.

Like others, congrats Mr Santos!

Oh, oops, I meant to say ipad + remote app. So yes, I am using remote app to control the apple tv, instead of the remote it comes with. Much better if you have to type anything, for example, searching on you tube, netflix, etc. Just realized that there is no way to stream mlb.tv on the Apple tv yet. Good thing the season is almost over. Perhaps they will have this feature by next season.

Apple TV + ipad =

It can get rather hot and humid even by mid-morning. Our "quiet hours" end at 7am on weekdays, 8am on Saturdays but luckily not until noon on Sundays. I do believe one is allowed to shoot anyone making noise during quiet hours.

Almost all our neighbors hire lawn service people to blow leaves around with leaf blowers (even though the lawns are each about the size of a postage stamp). I figure that all the leaves just end up on our lawn since we don't have a leaf blower to blow them back. The thing I hate about leaf blowers is that they are so LOUD and the lawn people insist on blowing leaves on Saturday morning at 7:30am (even though they are supposed to wait til 8am). I suppose if you live next to a forest, the leaf blower may be a good idea.

I just don't understand leaf blowers, you still have to pick up the leaves at some point.

Curious about the new flagship Stax. Glad that I didn't rush out and buy an O2 mkii after getting the KGSS.

Vicki, just heard that you broke your JH13's. That really sucks, hope they get fixed soon.

Butter is good.

The acorn squash took a lot longer than I thought they would take but they eventually finished after throwing them in the oven at 450. Guess I need a super grill like Mike. The ribeyes were great, very near rare but really good. It doesn't hurt to slop a little butter on them when they come off the grill.

Good luck Birgit. Sounds like you'll need it. Nate: Sounds like a really special day.

Mike's dinner looked so good, I went about and bought an acorn squash and rib eye steak. The squash are cooking on the grill right now and the steak will go on just long enough for the rare side of med-rare.

The game between Jeff and Nate was close! Congrats Dinny on your win. I hate the Giants defense today.

Never thought of making mashed potatoes with baked potatoes but I am sure they would be much better. I bet they would taste a lot like baked potatoes.

Looks like I have an excellent chance at a big fast loss this week.

Nice, Al and Doug!

I have no problem at all with the bass or mids on the JH13... it is all very good.

Amazon is just lucky that I have a PS3 downstairs and that is where the big TV and booze is located.

Evidently amazon has started using other courier services besides UPS. My Apple TV was sent via Ensenda who delivered it to the campus mail delivery services center instead of the department. So I will have to wait until Monday to get it.

Nice Dinny!

Good decision.

I guess there is a small chance that it would arrive before the 11th.

I have been listening to the 404LE and KGSS (my first Stax rig) lately. I am starting to really understand why everyone describes the Stax sound as "effortless." I am really digging them, more than the LCD-2 (my other "new" can). I can see some O2's and possibly 4070's in my future.

Damn glad you didn't die... from the steak.
