Happy birthday! (party favour noise)

Actually, the smell is already gone, and it tastes delicious.

Happy birthday, wielder of bread knives and Mjölnir! (party favour noise)

Earlier today, discovered Wegmans returned Chocolate Eclairs to their offerings! So I had one, to make up for the zero I've had over the last several years (I usually have one/year on my birthday).

I made my barbecue pork/ghoulash today. Pork was a little ... ripe, but I've eaten worse so won't discard. House might smell for a few weeks, here's to hoping my landlord doesn't evict me.

I got nothing. It's actually a really nice song, but it's obviously lyrics oriented, and I'm not a lyrics listener, so... I got nuthin'. (My life's too short for me to give it much more effort than one listen. Sorry.)

Happy birthday to my favourite wine enthusiast! (party favour noise)

Thanks for posting that, didn't realize Riverside had a new one. Going to listen to it now soon. Fauna is great, though. I think I like it even better than Virus. I might have to raid that chart for ideas, myself, I'm about ready to get back into something else other than my comfort music.

Happy belated birthday, Justin! (party favour noise)

David Grissom liked my comment on Facebook, so I should probably listen to some of his music -- any recommendations?

Do you have to assemble your own sushi?

Sounds like you have G.A.S. for the sake of G.A.S. Grace is a good company, feel free to stick with that...unless you feel like you're actually missing something. And in that case, you may want to make sure there's impedance matching between components. Other than the Schiit line of gear, I don't know what DACses are popular any more. (I don't have one, myself, though, so it might just be that they have a memorable name.)

I did, and I still am continuing to. It's a better driver than I am! Doesn't tailgate, let's me know when my steering is sloppy...

Thank you for continuing sharing your impressions.

Oh, okay, at least you're already familiar with them. They got more gazey, but while retaining the metal.

Happy birthday, Kerry! (party favour noise)

I was going to ask why they're called "Dirty Cello", but after seeing said cello (and having owned Quad 12L's in gloss black), I think I know.

In more reality based news: my Impreza is in the shop, so they gave me a loaner. Turned out, it was a 2024 Crosstrek. I get to keep it through Wednesday. I think they want me to fall in love with it and buy it. The first part is working. The second part would work if I had enough money. Except it's blue. And I would want a moonroof/sunroof/whatever. Everything else is :chef's kiss:
