Those are gorgeous.

The AudioValve RKV is also auto-bias, IIRC.

Yeah, just post the update to the thread, and then say something like, "could one of the moderators change the first post to say this: ...?"

Do you know what most people who don't pay for TV do? Without. They do without. I can do without your whining. STFU. Dollhouse -- I really like the lyrics to the theme song, it's perfect for the show. I bet Joss wrote them.

Yeah, green teas do better at 160 or thereabouts, and I've actually been experimenting -- successfully, I might add -- with anywhere in the 170-180 range for black tea. I like my tea less bitter/smoover than most. Yes, some may call it insipid. Fuck 'em. PS I need screenshots of that animation.

Bob Dylan, "The Aardvark Song"

The doctor asked for an aardvark The doctor asked for abstinence And somewhere in the distance A wild cat asked for sustenance. I'm thinking this is a secret spy photo from Bob Dylan's mind of unused song lyrics.

I thought that was Carver?

Thanks. That song stuck in my head, and I'm about to go to sleep. I'll be dreaming of weddings, I'm sure.

I predict that a lot of people will make predictions, and that after all is said and done, those people will claim to have predicted correctly. Including me, I will cite this post when I am proven correct.

They seem pretty happy. I think from that we can safely deduce that they haven't been forced to try tried them yet.

Wireless desk lamp without a lightbulb? I bet you could use it as a headphone stand, though...

Happy Birthday, dude!

I'm not going to worry about it -- you know there's going to be a whole contingent of people who are going to say, "nah, the new PS1000's aren't anywhere near as good as the Old School PS-1's...remember the buttons?!?!?" for no other reason than because of the typical old model/new model mentality. If it really is better, I'll be able to sell my current PS-1 for old-school RS-1 markup money. And if it isn't, I'll just keep it. Besides, remember the whole GS1000 prototype/production model controversy? Can you imagine if he made that mistake again?

Someone forgot to tell you it couldn't be done?

(raises hand)

My favorite cereal is Nature's Path Optimum something. Started consolidating my podcast subscriptions onto my home computer (need to clear up the ones at work). Fed the cat.

Received: the Ramen from the deals thread; a microfiber towelette; a second SwissGold tea filter; a CD (Penumbra, if anyone cares).

worked for me

When did that come out? (wanders off to do some research)

Me: A mixture of Vouvray and Chenin Blanc (4 bottles total). If it just needs a new nib, ask Hirsch. I don't know if he's doing any restoration work for anyone else yet, but he does a lot for himself. I've heard him say he can do nibs and resackings in his sleep. Staples. Oh, and: win.

...with surround?

Every time I get an MRI, I think of the opening of Talk Talk's "The Rainbow" from Spirit of Eden. And vice versa.
