  1. What I told you in the chat, except in forum formatting. **BRENT**
  2. I've downloaded a few things from Audible and have been listening to books lately. Snow Crash I just finished, and enjoyed, though kinda see Dan's point there at the end. Neverwhere is next on my list after I finish "Under The Dome" by Stephen King, as it was 34 hours long and I need to kill time. Ringworld was free on Audible recently through http://www.audible.com/twitfree It was pretty good. Ender's Game is something I've read multiple times, and one of my favorite books, period. Heinlein's Stranger in a Strange Land is classic, and I'm sure grawk would approve. There's a good list started up above. I know I have a few more to add, just can't remember them... maybe it's time to start re-reading things, no? I guess I'm just saying "x2" to about a third of the above. **BRENT**
  3. /me applauds. I didn't see where you bought that M^3 yet, though. Was that on the last page? **BRENT**
  4. Friend or Foe - Audiophile T-Shirts These are half off right now, 24-26$ instead of 48-52$. I figure some of you guys will dig 'em. **BRENT**

  7. Congrats on being officially older than 97.6% of Head-Fi, and 73% of Head-Case. **BRENT**
  8. Double post... kill it pls, guys. Sent it from the road... bah. **BRENT**
  9. Take a camera with you and shoot some pics to give us something to work with visually. Take a picture of the back of the house and also the back of the yard as we as we can probably throw out a few more ideas for the future developments for storage buildings, home theatre tie ins, etc. **BRENT**

  11. What about building a large window/door area in the attic to the outside of the house that would open out, then use a scissor lift to transfer things to and from ground level (perhaps building a small patio/deck off the upper level, perhaps large enough to throw a couple chairs out to chill on.) That would free up space where you need it, plus allow you have another vehicle to put rims on. If you wanted, with this idea you could even just possibly rent the scissor lift when needed, which would free up a bit of capital. I would say put in the spiral staircase too, though, so you could at least do some things storage wise until it's converted to a proper room. Thinking about it a little more, however, leads me to believe that the kid would have a pretty pimp way to sneak in the Flavor of the Month (night?) once those teenage years hit if you had a window that fully opened up and had a scissor lift. Oh, when you wind up going for some other, slowly moving thing... why not supercharge the motor on the lift? I'm sure someone around can do it. **BRENT**
  12. Were you sober? If so, my fiend, I believe we may have stumbled upon the problem. Have a pint with the blade... you know, to take the edge off. **BRENT**
  13. Did anyone post this response about JH13 v JH16 from Jerry off of Facebook? "The JH16 is not necessarily a better sounding earpiece than the 13. The JH13 is a killer sounding earpiece and audio-wise it is hard to improve upon. Regarding the sound signature, the 13 and 16 are very similar. The JH16 offers more bottom end capacity and therefore will take more low-end input. You will notice the difference more in a live setting than a mastered recording. In a live situation the mix is not as controlled. The dynamic range and transient peaks are much more dramatic live. For example, in a live setting, an artist may want to hear a full mix plus a kick drum with a large 50hz boost (more than you would ever hear on a recording) and at a much louder volume than most people would listen. The earpiece needs to have more headroom and capacity so as not to distort at that volume level. This is when the 16 shines. Hope this clears things up a little. Jerry" I think some people on facebook were thinking that Jerry was saying that there IS a 50Hz boost in the 16s, where actually they are just able to handle the boost if the sound guy puts it in the mix for the performers on stage. Headroom... it's a good thing, no? I haven't read the 16 specific thread, but has anyone said anything about them being as easily amped (straight out of phone/DAP) as the 13s? **BRENT**
  14. Had I known I woulda driven the two hours to say "Hi". Does sound like something that would be awesome. You build them an amp for a gift? **BRENT**
  15. Looks like it's up to 37.75$ now. Was this a gold box deal, or did they just run out of stock? **BRENT**
  16. [singing] Happy happy Birthday, we're really glad you came! Happy Happy Birthday, from the Head-Case gang! We really are excited, and hope that you are too, so Happy Happy Birthday, from the Head-Case Crew, YEAH! [/singing] **BRENT**
  17. Happy anniversary of the day of your birth, my fiend. **BRENT**
  18. I'd put the Nexus One on VZW at the same 179$ pricepoint as it will be with T-Mobile, and the Droid dropping down to the same (after being out for 6 months). Look for this price After MIR, though. @Dinny, if you want a keyboard, why not the Droid? **BRENT**
  19. **BRENT**
  20. See Title. Let me guess, this was a secret, no? **BRENT**
  21. Anyone post this? Buy 200 GB of (Google/Picasa) storage for $50 and get a free 4GB Eye-Fi card **BRENT**
  22. I know, right? If it didn't have that date in non-black, it'd be better. **BRENT**
  23. Has anyone posted this one yet? TX 600 Pilot FlyBack Second Time Zone Chronograph Men's Black Stainless Black Leather Strap Black Dial T3C423 Watch **BRENT**
  24. This is why one should fly to Apopka and get it done. Or Chicago in a few months, or... Has anyone had a fit issue if they got the molds done by an in-house person? **BRENT**
  25. And wasn't crappy just saying in the chat earlier that the raving has died down a bit? Heh, I think the tertiary wave of rave is nigh upon us. **BRENT**
