  1. Apparently I can't either. PK2 or PK3.
  2. I liked the PK1s a lot for earbuds, but they need an amp, and wouldn't be good for the gym. Re the Uncle Wilson headphones, my boss uses them to walk his dog. I only listened to them once and don't really remember anything at all about them. Dan also had a pair or two, but I don't know if he listened to them or just gave them to his kids. Etys would be my choice and to try out different tips. Excellent isolation with the right seal, which wipes out that horrible gym music always playing, and they sound damn decent.

  4. Glad that worked out, Nate, and although it may be weird, try and enjoy your last day at the old job. I mean what are they going to do, fire you? Craig, that sounds like a whole different kind of bad weird.
  5. I couldn't find that app in the app store. TypeDrawing is a very fun app, and if you have any kind of drawing talent, which I don't, it would probably be even more fun. I like how you can use photos as backgrounds.
  6. And someone would have filmed it and sold it for a nice sum.
  7. It's the congratulations cat! Yes, I know you hate cats, but my congratulations dog didn't even look like a dog, and my congratulations mouse was even worse, and a congratulations fish didn't make sense even to me, and that's the extent of my artistic talent, but it's the thought that counts, right? Anyway, big congrats to you.
  8. Go Jeff! I'm actually a good cook and like it, but I've completely gotten out of doing it for fun or being creative with it. I'd signed up for a weekend cooking class in Greek cuisine at a local culinary school, but missed it due to forgetting I'd even signed up for it Maybe it's time to investigate again.
  9. Glad you're liking the new amp, John. You guys all move fast around here.
  10. Ben Nichols -The Last Pale Light in the West I've been listening to this a lot over the past couple months. Like it more each time.
  11. I don't think mine had ever gone out before or maybe I just don't remember.
  12. Devics- The Stars at Saint Andrea I really like this. Thanks, Dusty.
  13. The Muhal Richard Abrams Orchestra - Blu Blu Blu
  14. Yup, that's the one. Really really happy about it.
  15. If anyone feels like spending three days to get free music, maybe try MOG Mobile Music App. It's free to download, and a free trial for three days, but then $9.99 a month after that. You get unlimited downloads at 64kbps or 320; you get unlimited "on-demand" streaming of any song, album, artist; MOG radio discovery engine, which is basically a radio stream "artist only" mix or a full mix of similar artists (you decide what you want); and you get to create playlists on their website then access them from your phone or ipad. I'm going to try it out next weekend when I have time to mess around with it. EDIT: not yet ready for OS4
  16. Well, in the words of the great poet Charles Olson, "I had to learn the simplest things last."
  17. I got notice today that my camera connection kit shipped, two weeks ahead of when they said it would, but over a month from when I first ordered it.
  18. Though I'm feeling a bit weird (and old) reporting my medical whatevers here, I just want to say that the prescription the doc gave me yesterday works. Today was the first day that I've not been in some level of nasty pain in probably a year or more. I'd just gotten to a place of acceptance and tried to do things in spite of it and not complain, but the truth is that it was at the point these past six months or more where I really didn't want to do anything at all once I got home, including walking to the mailbox, moving around the house, going to the grocery store, going out with friends, etc. I'll say that this pill took the pain level from my daily standard of a 4-8, depending on time of day, to a steady but oh so pleasant 2. I've been running around all day and I feel like going out to do something later. I went an got my handicap plate from the Tax Collector's Office this morning. I found the new sign they had rather funny: Today has been an excellent day.
  19. Thanks, Steve. I was pretty happy about it, and I can't say that I'm upset at all about the parking tag Oh....Craig, I did read up on joint resurfacing and asked the doc, but he said that he wouldn't recommend it as there wasn't a good success rate going at all yet. He also talked about various shots and platelet replacement and all sorts of things that folks are working on, but aren't yet ready for prime time, and my insurance definitely won't cover, but it looks like there really is hope for what's possible a couple years down the road when I'll need it most. Though nothing's really changed, I'm looking at this as a very encouraging day. Plus the parking tag. I just love that.
  20. Okay, unplugging it and plugging it back in again worked, and I have also now publicly revealed how really idiotic I am, but also remembered the name of my network, which is good. Time to get one of those mac for dummies books. Thanks, guys.
  21. It is a white box attached to a small white box that looks like a pico slim on steroids. Is that a power brick?
