I remember how nice those relatively balmy days in the middle of winter can be, though in Anchorage 50 degrees would be unheard of this time of year.

The PX-2 is a seriously good table. I would love to hear a PX-1.

Happy New Year everyone!

Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday Jacob!

Well it does look solid, and hard, but not sure how that popped up on your query.

Congrat Dad, Congrat Mom!

Good luck !

Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday!

^^^ So true Stretch. Pair them with Emotiva's new little desktop amp, and that's a sweet system for low $. http://emotiva.com/a100.shtm

Say no more, I completely understand. One day I'm going to watch a movie in my backseat just for the hell of it.

I think nothing of an 8 hour drive. I guess that's from living in Alaska so long. Checking the mail at the end of the driveway could be a half day trip.

Hmmm, no one's mentioned the Wharfdales. Similar in sound sig. to the Quad, but less expensive. Front ported for close to wall applications too. http://www.proaudiosolutions.com/product-p/dp8.2a.htm That's priced singularly, but $400.00 is a good deal IMO.

Happy Birthday Steve!

In short...fuck yes!

Unfortuantely the nail guns were all put away, as we're now hanging sheetrock. The best I could have done was screwed him...

An elderly gent wheels his golf cart into the driveway of my jobsite this afternoon, after lunch. he doesn't knock, but just opens the door and walks in. He looks around a bit and asks who's in charge. I tell him I am, and since I know he's not my local building inspector, I assume he's with OSHA. He starts asking pointed questions about the Hurricane strapping, other Simpson hardware, What kind of glue lams are under the sheetrock that we are in the middle of hanging and so on. I'm thinking that The inspector's boss must be checking up on him. This guy asks to see my permit, then asks me why there's no vapor barrier on the walls that aren't yet rocked. This question puzzles me, as vapor barriers are mostly used in a cold climate. Down here they create more problems than they solve, as in mold issues. So I finally ask this gentleman who he's working for. "Oh, I'm a retired builder from Minnesota" he says. So are you working for the city down here? "Nope, just stopped by to give you some suggestions". I just spent 15 valuable minutes with a bored, retired contractor. And one who obviously never built in the South. As you might imagine I had a few suggestions of my own. This guy seemed truly puzzled that I'd be miffed at him barging into my job uninvited, acting like an authority figure and wasting my time. Learn Golf!

The new Adam Lambert CD he's been wanting?

Id'a hooked for audio equipment at 13.

Could be worse Mike. My peeps have a whole other meaning for pirate booty, and he's lookin' for some...

Damn! Go Helen.

Got a great haul from Carl Seibert today! Yay! thanks Carl, I'm gonna start listening now!
