Shelly, I wasn't comparing hamburgers, though I have had better burgers at McD's that the 5 Guys burger I had last night. I was comparing french fries, where McD's really shines. Normal McD's french fries were better than the fries I had last night. I do agree that In-N-Out is better than 5 Guys unless the TO location is an anomaly.

Went to the new 5 Guys in Thousand Oaks last night. After hearing about them here, I was very interested in trying them out. I ordered a hamburger with lettuce, grilled onions, mustard and relish, and a small fries. I was very disappointed in the hamburger. You can only get them cooked well-done. The patties were dry and almost tasteless. The fries were much better, but not great. I'd take McD's fries over them any day. The TO location hasn't been open very long, so hopefully this is just a start-up problem and the food will improve to match the 5 Guys hype. They have a long way to go.

I'd rather have an "Unhear" button.

@Reks - nice sarcasm.

Having a BOM and a fairly standard "Reference Build" would be very nice, especially for DIY newbies like me. So please, could somebody do that? Pretty please? Also, will this amp have enough voltage to drive my Westone UM2s?

Played tour guide for Grahame and Joanne. It was raining in SB so we headed over the hills to Santa Ynez valley and some wine tasting. We were rewarded with no rain and even a little sunshine.

I'd call that "ghetto DIY". To me, real DIY means that the builder actually made the part. For example John Britten was a real DIY motorcycle builder. He did use a few off the shelf parts, but not many. I do like this use of a burner from an electric stove. However, I suspect that the burner would be more than a ready made resistor.

10Ω 10W resistor. Now I need to find a 2.5Ω 12W resistor.

Good luck.

Happy Birthday, Hirsch! :prettyprincess:

Here, you have a 15 minute window after post creation to make any edits.

Happy Birthday guys! :prettyprincess:

My condolences to you and your family, Shelly.

I'm surprised that they used the Kosher version for the demo. Congrats on a shrewd purchase.

I worked with this artist when she was a software engineer. She's a very good artist and specializes in plein air pastels. Surprisingly, she's extremely color blind. Oh yes, the image you posted is funny.

All Hail Queen Vicki. Happy Birthday Boo. Hope it was great! Happy Birthday Penger. :prettyprincess: for both of you.

I got "snipe" for the first one. The Delorean would make a perfect winter car.

42?

Modern Marvels It's the Distilleries episode.

Finger sandwiches.

Happy Birthday :prettyprincess:

Congratulations! You got there on one of the three days a year it doesn't rain. It looks like you had a good time.

Have you tried milspec LEDs? You can probably get some from a local amp manufacturer.

You mean that it smells dank and musty? What is this magic flux?
