I'm not sure there is a treatment for me.

"Dad! Dad! I think I lost some of my marbles!"

"...moisture..." -- doesn't need to freeze to be damaging.

Good shit. Rotel, Nad, Creek? Except they specialize in home theater -- that stereo is a bit of an experiment for them, market-wise. Has the 990 actually started shipping?

Fever Ray -- this is really good, dark, in a Laurie Anderson kind of way.

That's pretty ...uh... "out there".

1m sounds like a speaker measurement.

...then at least the entertainment factor would be high.

Give 'em slippers:

That's because they're on to you. Time to move perhaps? Or at least find a new liquor store?

Sergey Lukyanenko, The Last Watch aka The Final Watch -- Jesus Christ this guy is good. On top of the whole fantasy storyline, there's also the mystery, and I love how he presents the "detective" going through his thoughts, and getting stuck on a particular analysis, and it clouding his judgment towards seeing the real thing. (It's a sequel to the Night Watch/Day Watch/Twilight Watch trilogy.)

I'm in your white-trash hot-tub, warming parboiling my harblz.

I dig both those albums. On a side note, I now work for a guy with the same name. No, I didn't ask if he thought a reunion with David Byrne was out of the question. I should have started singing, "I've got the heat turned on...and the windows down..."

Polyester is a very durable material, it can be used for a lot of things.

Offenbach: Ga

Well, fewer components in the signal path would be the theoretical reason why they would think it would sound better. Maybe "frequency response" isn't a high priority with them.

Anyone know of a good resource for determining the details of audio tracks of Blu Ray disks? I was browsing in the store, and if I hadn't picked up the Cure Trilogy Live in Berlin and looked at the back, I never would have known that there was a stereo 24/96 track on it. Wouldn't mind knowing if there are others out there. I'm sure there are some good high-res surround disks, but I'm of course mostly interested in stereo. Yes, I already know about the 2L label (DSD and such, music-only Blu-Ray disks), and of course the Nine Inch Nails Ghosts I-IV was the first Blu-Ray I ever bought. And yes, while googling, I did stumble across that Celine Dion disk. Perhaps if you know of any others, just post them here?

Fucking censors.

I think it's just an EQ. You know, like a crossover, except it's not helping the transition between drivers, it's only accomodating for the difference between driver and "flat".

You know, initially I read that as 1500 somethings -- as in, you left out the units. And I was wondering what you were talking about, that's not a problem. Then I realized you meant that you had bought 1500 quantity. That's a lot of polyester.

Dr. Motte meets Gabriel Le Mar, Fax CD

Hummina hummina. Oh, and hey, I didn't even know you could do that. And why does she have a penis?!?!?

Done.

Also: Brandy. Or Thai. Or Indian.

It's the same connector as the iPod, so yes; but there are other issues (the software on the iPhone has a way of determining if the connector is iPhone compatible or not and complains, but I believe otherwise works).
