Dave's not here......

Sorry to hear of dental nightmares....my dad was my dentist growing up, so never had fear or a bad experience. Still practices, and my sister is a hygienist. But the office is just far enough away that it takes up a whole day to visit, so i go local now. It's like my dad's office, a bit old school (but with modern tools) and full of decorum that was popular in the 1970's...... Been lucky that, even though I've needed work, it was done pain-free, even without novocaine. First time I had it was for a shallow filling and I asked my dad to give me some because I was having my wisdom teeth out in a couple weeks (did local for that). I might be one of the few screwballs who actually enjoyed his wisdom teeth experience! Jacob, that is kind of cool info, re: hard teeth and not harboring the bacteria....

Have a beer. And more beer. And a great birthday!

If we can work the schedule, sure on all accounts!

That's great! I need to find my pic of my cat with the same style! Cross between lion and poodle!

Glad things went as well as they did Dusty....as Jews say about funerals, "May next time we see you be a mitzvah....". Hope family and friend bonds stay strong, and may they indeed be continued in good times....

Susie is a cutie for sure, that second pic truly defines "puppy dog eyes" And Al, I can't believe you've had Nitro almost 2 years, I still remember the "I'm going to get a Vizsla" posts..... And Quest certainly looks like Man's Best Friend.......

Man, that does suck, so sorry to hear Iain.....hope the last days are sweet and as comfortable as can be for Ozzy.....

He's a beauty, Carl! Great coat and eye color....happy adopting

Haven't heard it in mine.....soundstage is pretty good for a closed phone, but don't hear any echo/reverb type of effects, and don't remember hearing them on first listens. Still liking the sound on these a lot, they have replaced the X-1's at work since they isolate better. Comfort is still not 100% for me, the clamping on the ears is a tiny bit uncomfy due to the shape of the drivers/pads on my head (not bad pressure, but combined with the fit on/over my ears, it's noticable but not horribly troublesome). I still listen for a couple hours at a time without any problems, though.

I'll try to make this one as well, time will tell as we get closer......

Happy Birthday! Does seem like it's been a while.....

Holy crap, Ric. Glad to hear people are OK, and car damage hopefully minimal. But yeah, that scare, especially with kids in the car, will get the adrenaline pumping. I used to fucking hate those "Baby On Board" signs until we had my son. I still never put them on/in, but understood the concept a lot better. Wayne, sounds awesome, very good & creative planning; the kids should get a big kick out of it!

Off in a few to go to a Kosher Wine Tasting through our Temple's Brotherhood. Should be fun, and somewhat tasty.....

Happy Birthday to you two.....too.......

It'd be kind of gross, but go through the trash, see if there's any identifying info (thrown out mail for example), and the next night empty it on the lawn at that address. Was the bin outside? We have ours in the garage until it goes out for pickup..... Me: got my mother-in-law set up with Comcast today, her first day in her new apartment; also did a fair bit of arranging & additional unpacking. She's nervous as hell, has literally NEVER lived far outside of New York (and is 85). But she has space, a beautiful place, and has met two people already who invited her to afternoon tea or dinner. I really hope this is a sign of good things to come.

Paging Steve......

Happy Birthday JP#

I'm with you Iain....I've been the a-hole with the camera held up high recording, as well as trying to look at the stage with one or more of those in my vision. It's for that specific reason that I don't do that anymore, or if I do I make sure it's short or as unobtrusive as possible.....

Good to see you back here Alex, very happy birthday!

Good to at least know the cause, Grahame. Good luck expelling fluids in the future....

RIP Greystone, sorry for your family's loss Larry. Sounds like he had a decent extended life with lots of love for those two years.....

Ditto. Love all the pics, have a great time!

Still sad to see when someone falls like that, Dan....sorry to hear of someone so young wasted away. The irony of Morphine to cure a Heroin OD is not lost on me, if there was irony to have. And yes, I agree with your assessment of Mark's talents, but had no idea of his personality.

^^ d'oh! I was thinking PC, not Mac.....ignore my SW recommendation if needed......
