I really enjoyed it for a couple of years but I started feeling like a talk show host listening to band after band that I'd never heard of and wasn't interested in the genre. I think I quit about the same time as Antonio and pretty much feel the same.

Thanks so much you guys! Buggy would have been shocked by all this attention (and hidden under the couch). Good luck with your pup Chris. Fingers crossed.

Woke up this morning to find my beloved cat Buggy had died during the night. She's been circling the drain for a couple of weeks so it wasn't a surprise but it still made me very, very sad. Now I'm wondering if burying her in a spot that I see every time I look out the window was such a great idea. It was her favorite spot in the back yard so I guess it was the right thing to do. RIP Buggy. I couldn't have asked for a better companion.

Catching up on episodes I missed. If you're a fan of silly guys in ridiculous situations, you could do a lot worse. I'm totally bummed that it wasn't picked up for another season but I'm sure these guys will show up. For now, there's NetFlix.

Friday Jules Bianchi passed away. Very, very sad that such a young talented guy should have to die when so many old fuck heads live on. The world that was important to him said goodbye; http://blackflag.jalopnik.com/motorsports-mourns-the-loss-of-formula-one-driver-jules-1718778239

Finally caught up (episode 4). Talk about "shit hitting the fan"! I still lean toward the creepy feel of the first season but we have a long way to go in this one! Colin Farrell is killing in this one!

Spent a little time with Frank's 845 amp/009 too. Sounds great. He said the 845 plates are running at 800v. I can't remember the driver tube but the inputs are 76(s). Dan over at Bottlehead has a new headphone amp that was designed for the K1K that uses a pair of 845(s) too. Very fashionable? I totally fell in love with Craig's Studio amp. Parallel 2A3(s) really made the HD800's sing.

I'm with Nate on this. Really enjoyed Suits for 2 seasons and lost interest. For legal shows, if any of you guys didn't watch Damages when it was airing, I loved that (on Netflix). Mr. Robot is looking like my fav summer show this year.

Well, I love oysters and the raw and Rockies I had were super tasty! Pretty decent Minion sauce for half shells. What I really dig is the setting. Sitting by the side of a windy road with the bay on the other side and the gulls yakking above. What an awesome spot to spend time with 10 or 20 of your favorite friends!

Wow Marc! Do you do windows?

Agreed Mikey! Regarding Williams, just like my chess teacher used to say,.. "You have to win three times, the opening (start), the middle game and the ending." Now that they know they can get pole, they need to remember how to win the race. I don't think that should take very long.

Both of these guys created images that I'll never forget! RIP Snake and Omar!

Happy B Day Birgir!

Awesome job Mike! Your summer chores are done so plant your ass on the couch!

Here's a good "returning stuff to HD story. A carpenter I worked with was at the local flea market and a guy was selling boxes of marble tiles. Some homeowner project gone wrong so he was selling them for half price. Al (the carpenter) bought them all and put them in his pickup. He drove them to the nearest HD and returned them for a full refund. No receipt, no HD sticker, just the bar code on the box.

Hey Haj, did you try to return the screen? I'm surprised at what Home Depot will take back. If you have the receipt, it's certainly worth a shot.

Happy B Day buddy! I'll willing to bet you know how to celebrate it.

Happy B Day Justin!

Happy Father's Day Head_Case Dads!

Looks like a meal fit for a King Mike! (at least my kinda king) Smoke on!

Happy belated B Day buddy!

Good on you Brent! I need to get my head out of my ass and try and meet someone too.

I imagine that most of you guys got the same Acoustic Sounds email I did. It announced the purchase of Doug Sax's The Mastering Lab/Sheffield Labs by Chad Kassem. The email included a link to an excellent video.

Really enjoyed the first season. I was kinda skeptical at first but once they started fleshing out his character, I was hooked.
