  1. They didn't have it downstairs, so I searched for it, to see if maybe they were "test-marketing" it. Google: "lime doritos" Over on the right, 10,000+ Home Security Choices So I clicked it. It "fuzzy searched" on "live dominos".
  2. Wait, there's a "Hint of Lime" Doritos?!?!? (darts out the door)
  3. Warmed up Quizno's something-chicken sammich.
  4. I found this beautiful winter poem and thought it might be a comfort to you. It was to me, and it's very well written. "WINTER" a poem by Abigail Elizabeth McIntyre... "SHIT, It's Cold !" The End
  5. No, you've actually been pretty good so far, I think Dan was just being pre-emptive.
  6. Yeah, seconded -- whut eez eet? Looks nice. I love my SP Supra++, too. Nothing better (that I've heard, anyway), except maybe an electrostatic rig.
  7. Mmmm...lime.
  8. I'm pretty good about holding back compared to most people -- I've had this bag for a week and a half and haven't finished it yet. But considering my history (my dad died in 1988 of complications after heart surgery due to heart disease at the ripe old age of 55), I should probably be a monk about candy and other fattening foods, which I'm not.
  9. Well, I don't do it all the time, as I should be eating healthily as well.
  10. Well, first of all, Comfy, thanks for your input, I certainly appreciate it. Secondly, most of the information in the first post has been superceded by this post (I should probably modify the original post). Basically, the headphone jack sucked, and I suspect that that was the problem, not that the K1000's were so much better than anything else. So I'm going to find my ASL speaker-headphone adapter thingy and try some cheaper headphones on her and see if she can tell the difference. The new criteria is that they can handle going loud for long periods at a time.
  11. Yeah, me too. I've been having a hankering for them for a while, and when we passed by a bulk candy store the other day, I stopped and bought some.
  12. A small stack of CD's from my favourite local CD store that's closing in a couple months.
  13. I have been lucky with interconnects and speaker cables and power cords as well. But substitute "shoelaces" for "tubes" and "them hanging" for "rolling object on a table" in the above sentence.
  14. You win this round.
  15. I'm not Oj, but I've got 12L's set up nearfield on either side of my screen here at work, and it's exquisite. LS3/5a's work real well nearfield also. I've had my Special 25's nearfield, and although it worked (I had them above my monitor, upside-down, and pointed slightly down at my ears), I would recommend something more along the lines of midfield for them. They sounded better a couple feet back. Basically, it depends on the speaker. Most studio monitors designed for the home studio should work in the nearfield, as that is their intended application.
  16. I doubt it's that black and white -- I will fully allow that I may be wrong on details or word usage here and there, but I'm pretty sure of myself on the overall concept ("common mode rejection", to be explicit [and to give you something to google, in case KG does not answer your query]). I already said that I wouldn't -- you're welcome to ask him.
  17. Jordan (candied) almonds

  19. Yeah, but this is David Lee Roth, he of the vocal acrobatics. It's actually interesting to hear without the bed of guitars &c. by Eddie & co. underneath. Not to say that I wouldn't mind hearing more of this stuff that circulates amongst the engineers.
  20. DLR vocal track from VH's "Runnin' with the Devil"
  21. (imagines vince vaughn rubbing peanut butter in all our faces, shudders) That one's gonna give me nightmares.
  22. It's also too big.
  23. I thought I mentioned this one, but it appears I haven't. Best crowd: Urge Overkill/Breeders in Hawaii. I think I was the only one that wasn't partaking of "maui-maui" that night. I was actually in Hawaii on work, and I think I had already been there for 4 weeks at that point, and was getting a little punchy, so I looked around to see if there were any shows that I was interested, found this one, and went. Crowd was absolutely apeshit -- partying, dancing, moshing, crowd-surfing, singing along. High as kites, the lot of them. Line was really slow to get in, so Urge Overkill had already started by the time I got in. They finished, but...it's like the crowd didn't notice. They kept partying, dancing, singing, moshing (not violent like, more like a bunch of individuals doing the pogo in proximity to each other, rather than into each other), and crowdsurfing. "Rhinestone Cowboy" came on. I swear, the entire crowd sang along, moshing, dancing, partying, and crowd-surfing just like it was the headlining band. The Breeders came on at some point, and I think they commented, and they were of course, great. They used two microphones for that one song, "Cannonball", for the first encore, and if at all possible, the crowd went apeshitter...erm...more apeshit.
