Dusty Chalk

I have that, it's a favorite. And no, I didn't get it particularly cheap -- US$45, IIRC. Keep an eye on this.

Except that the foam in the spare set deteriorates also, you don't have to wear it for the foam rubber pixies (!) to have their way with it.

Why do they call it "fun size"? There's nothing fun about that depressing feeling you get when you realize you have an empty M&M bag, and you've only had 3, maybe 5.

I want one that's open newspaper sized that I can fold in quarters...eighths, even. And then make it make crinkly sounds when I fold it.

And I had to take it out, because it was this stupid infinite loop thing.

That last one -- it's just a source selector, not a preamp.

Nice, I got my eye on some of those Kinks downloads, too.

Is that what he told you? Of course, I think I offered you my bed once, too, so who the hell am I to talk?

Nice shoes, do they come in...er...a better color for me? Reddish brown is just not my thing, although I'm sure they look good on you. WTH is a "driving shoe", do you really wear special shoes just for driving? Or did you get them mostly just for the looks? I don't drive an awful lot, but when I do, I'm told I drive "jerky". Do they have special shoes for that? If I wear special shoes, will I become a better driver? Maybe I should start blaming the fact that I'm not wearing driving shoes...

Well phrased. Will start wishing healthy and recuperative vibes in a generally Southern direction starting a week from Wednesday.

's'awesome.

He doesn't look comfortable.

LOL, I'm going to have to remember that one.

Well, yeah, they (the SRS-005) won't help you with the world of presentation, but they'll help you with tonal balance and speed that electrostatic drivers are capable of. Me, personally, I hardly consider the "like speakers floating at the sides of your head" aspect all that important.

(crosses fingers for Nate)

Dollhouse -- holy shit.

Yes, correct, I meant the headphone amp. Typo.

Hippo Birdy!

Hawt.

That would be the Grace Design m802.

Yeah, they certainly won't release before WWDC, and I agree with your assessment of what the betas indicate. So yeah, short of any major bugs that show up, I would actually lean towards June, somewhere shortly after WWDC.
