Glad this man is not afraid to state his opinion; gladder that his opinion of the new and doubly (or is it triply?) expensive 009 is a rather high one; will be gladdest if that is my experience as well. Really looking forward to getting my eyes, hands, and ears on these puppies.

Worth watching to the end... "How does Danny Hart sit down with balls that big?"

Ehh, different strokes. I'd rather get naked and slide down a bannister made of razor blades than listen to the RS-1 flavor. Far, far too shrill for me.

Not sure I'd place a lot of reliance on that review. I'm a couple of paragraphs into it and already the guy has made some pretty goofy statements, such as: "The large diaphragms contain rare earth metals, including gold wire for maximum definition." Alrighty then... "By being American made, they save big bucks from having to import phones from China and can, instead, bulk up on the technology." Quick, someone call the President! This Levi guy is really on to something here. This could solve our debt crisis. We could all save big bucks by avoiding those expensive Chinese imports and just bulk up on good ole fashioned American technology instead... oh, and Grado "Labs" is such a fine example of how to stay ahead of the curve...

You're a star!

Nice! In your honor, since you're a Wrangler kind of guy:

Why didn't you throw some of those homerun balls back onto the field?

^ Nice jersey, Dan.

Jecklin Floats, but only because I ran out of rootbeer. Oh, and to play around with numbnuts when he searches for a pair tomorrow.

Sad to see all of the flooding and such. Thankfully, it wasn't a 4 or 5. Jokers like that guy hanging off the sign were nowhere to be seen in Cayman during Ivan, at least if they wanted to live to tell about it.

Funny, I just a portable painer! Ken, next time I see you, I'll show you how it works.

Ok, it's official... I hate you. I got 2 for $5 and was happy about it until you showed up!

Great news, this! I especially like the fact that they're hooking up with Chad and his gang in Salina. Wise move, because they're really going to raise the bar. It's been a huge investment, but one that should scale well when more folks like RR begin to utilize their facilities.

Strangely erotic.

Pepsi products must be on sale where you're at too! I just bought 3 bottles yesterday and 4 more bottles tonight... for the equivalent of $2.49 USD per 2-liter bottle. Normally, they're about $3.15 each.

Never guess who found me on Facebook just now... good ole Guru. Living in India now...

24 hours of foreplay is a bit much, don't you think? My gosh, boy... stick it in her!!!

Sheeeeez! Hang in there Brent. Let's hope that this takes care of it.

My gosh, only 29 years old... still a mere puppy. May you select your spirits wisely and have a most happy birthday!

Oh, but you can take the living room out of the equation... just ask the Smyth brothers (not the cough drop guys).

The guy's wife saw me getting into my car tonight, and rushed over to talk to me. She said that his feelings were hurt because he thought I was trying to tell him that he had too much junk in his yard! Duh!!! Too funny. Obviously I've never told him before, and offering him the fencing was my subtle way of saying I'd had enough of his junk. She apparently told him he was crazy to turn down my offer, so now they want the free shit. Then she started hinting around that they wanted me to pay to install the fence! Ya, right. So I'm still not sure where this is going, but I told her they would have to put it up themselves and also get rid of all the milk crates and other assorted junk that now comprises their fence. She seems to be as fed-up with his madness as I am. She then told me to wait a minute as she ran back into their house. I thought she was going to drag him out so we could kiss and make up, but no, out she comes with a coconut cream pie. I brought it to class tonight and told my students the story. One of them said, "Maybe it's poisoned... people do that, you know..." so we fed some to the stay cat that hangs out as the College, and then everyone dug in. It was quite good, actually.

You're right. Seems like they need to be replaced every 3-4 years. It's crazy because I've been in the same house for 15 years and have yet to need to replace my washer and dryer. Probably should go up to $2 each. Will raise them up next time I need to replace each machine.

Fucking neighbors keep piling up more junk in their yard. Nice people, and nobody is perfect... Background: They're from Trinidad and are VERY West Indian in the sense that they do things their way and like the Honey Badger, just don't give a shit. I guess what drives it all is just being extremely cheap by nature. The house itself is nice enough, but it's kind of a Frankenstein creation. When the old Holiday Inn closed down, one of them was working there, so most of the doors and windows, the window a/c units, etc. are of the mix and match variety. Whatever. Saved them some money, I'm good with that. It's just all of the junk piling up in the back yard and side yard. So I had this great idea. Since I had some extra vinyl fencing materials left over, I offered them to the guy -- enough to do his entire back yard so that he could get rid of the 612 plastic milk crates filled with rocks that forms part of his "fence" now, along with all kinds of other junk that is propped up on every imaginable angle to complete the fence. Guy says no, he's not interested, and furthermore it's his yard and he can do whatever the hell he pleases with it. I then asked him if he talked that way at his Church where he is the Youth Minister? No reply. So I think after about 15 years of somewhat peaceful co-existence, he now considers me a not-so-friendly neighbor, all because I offered him $1,500 worth of materials for free... probably enough to do his other side yard as well. The plot thickens: So since I'm sick of looking at their junk and they seem to enjoy looking at junk, I'm thinking about putting up a big pergola in that corner of my back yard. It would be about 10 feet high, 20-25 feet long, and extend out in my yard about 10 feet as well. There would be only one wall, which would be the back wall. The idea would be to completely block off the view of his back yard... simple enough, but it gets better... On my side of that wall, I could do a big vinyl wrap of something peaceful, like a beach scene, or just paint it to match the house. On his side, I could do a big vinyl wrap of the ugliest junk yard scene imaginable. Wouldn't cost me much more than the fencing materials I've offered to him. Just don't think I have the guts to actually do it...

^ I believe that would be a foul ball. Ump probably wouldn't argue with him if he thought it was fair though.

The answer was 69 bags @ $20 each, for a total of $1,380 of quarters, all of which I've just counted while listening to a 2-disk Dylan bootleg set. Actual total was $1,393.50. The question was how many quarters had collected in my washer and dryer at the apartments this past year or so. The light and water bills tend to be about $100 per month in total, so I the machines are priced about right at $1.50 each. Dang banks here in Cayman won't take coins unless you bag them... just one of many throwbacks from the 70's still alive and well here.
