I don't care much about PC vs Mac, but it would be great if they would do another commercial based on that emoticon.

Close! Thanks.

I just applied for two jobs at Sonos. My experience and skills are a good match and one of my references is a good friend with the HR manager, so I have a good chance of at least getting an interview. I applied via their web site. The last real question on the form was to enter your favorite musical performer or band.

What I wore out were Birk Arizonas. I'll probably have them refurbished too.

I was out trying various Teva, Merrill, Keen, Mephisto and other sandals. I liked the Keen sandals the best. So I'll probably buy a pair. Unfortunately, nobody has any Keen sliders to try. So I'll either go with the Newport H2 or Venice H2. The Venice appears to have more open uppers on the same soul. Has anybody tried the Venice? Jim?

In California, it's illegal to drive wearing headphones or earplugs. The exception is it's legal to wear earplugs (and I would assume IEMs) if they are custom fit. This is true for driving both cars and motorcycles. I wear custom fit earplugs. However, I don't know of a single person who has gotten a ticket for wearing generic earplugs.

Nice job Tyll. You should see John Chase's DRZ-400S. He didn't do anything for music. In place of that, he added several lights. You two would get along great. I'll introduce you if you ever get to SB. For motorcyclists, John is the "Chase" in Chase Harper. He hasn't been a part of Chase Harper for many years, though he remains close to Ron Harper and offers advice, etc. to him.

We're too numerous to count.

So true! Thank goodness though or I probably wouldn't have a pair of HP-2s.

As bad as this is (and it's really bad), it's nothing like the $3 trillion Iraq bail out.

Hatari on AMC. One of my favorite John Wayne flicks.

Here's some interesting material and discussion about receptacles from Audiogon. Mostly it references other links. Hospital grade has mostly to do with how much force it takes to remove the plug and also that it won't spark when inserting or removing a plug. It probably has nothing to do with getting better sound quality. Hospital grade info

Too subtle I think. Up to you. How many of us "guys" are you going to ban? Just me? That would be professional. Of course, you can just be like another moderator and come punch me out.

Yes, us "guys" do that. We should all be banned from HF. Maybe you should start the process?

I think conspire is the right word. Discussing our attacks and coordinating them is conspiring. I posted here that I thought the thread was way over the line and that I reported it. That was it. I think that it had a lot more to do with the fact that it was RSA and the problems about that between Jude and HC. I don't think anybody will complain. Let's see, you'll actually have the prototype. You'll talk about the prototype and how it sounds, looks, etc. What you won't do is make what amounts to a product announcement with specs, price, availability, etc. John did the latter. Of course, maybe you should. Justin could use the free advertising too.

Several of us here got the same email from Jude after he decided that we "conspired" here to attack RSA. We didn't conspire and were attacking jamato8. This was in regards to his thread that basically announced the SR-71A. I figured if Jude didn't care if he wasn't getting revenue from RSA, then I didn't care. The story might be different if I was an MOT and had to pay for such a thread, but I'm not. Since then, I haven't bothered to report a problem on HF. I don't see any upside to it, either for me or for HF.

Was he ever, really?

Now it's a fail to connect problem, so it looks like they've taken it down and are working on the problem.

These don't quite count as concerts, but my wife and I were in Las Vegas last week and saw two shows. The first was Jersey Boys. This is the Broadway hit musical about The Four Seasons. It had an excellent story and the music and singing were super. The second was Cirque de Soleil Love. It was the usual fine CDS performance art and (at least for me) the music was sensational too. Of course, I'm a big Beatle fan. All in all these were both great shows but I thought Jersey Boys was a little better.

Al, you're never going to be successful with all this negativity.

Ah, I love the smell of rope in the morning.

It used to feel OK to me, if slightly hard. It's possible that my Birks are too old and have compressed. Of course, it just may be that my joints are too old and also have compressed. Unfortunately, there is no longer a store in SB that stocks Birks so it will be hard for me to test a different pair.

Sorry, to me it just was a shortening of fidelity and I never tied it to another forum. Now I understand. Thanks for fixing it.
