Alright, you have dibs. But I really suck at selling stuff, so I doubt it'd be the first thing to go.

There was a while when I couldn't listen to a whole album by them, but I always enjoyed individual songs. And does anyone else remember that song-a-day 1-800 number?

Yeah, that one looks kinda cold, too, but not 'palpable'. The first one hits me that way because it's obvious that the dewpoint is such that any moisture in the air instantly condenses.

No, that sounds about right. You should sell them... ...to me.

Sort of -- post pics of your watch, post pics of others' watches, discuss watches, etc.

god-DAMN that is beautiful. The cold is almost palpable.

I'm not familiar with the AE-2, but from everything I've read...yeah, no problem.

Jazz in your pants!

YAEHD (yet another external hard drive) flash drive graphics card memory It appears I was giving them the wrong expiration date.

You need the words "catholic" and "highschoolgirl" in there somewhere.

He probably already knows he can get better sound, and is opting not to. I mean, c'mon, he's a musician. What you're showing him is that one can get good sound relatively inexpensively, and that's the real gift.

Damn, you make that sound really appealing... (wanders off to check it out)

a certain mix

A couple books and magazines, some of which were Christmas presents A couple bottles of wine from world market Need to get another shelf for mah wine rack Hello Kitty Candy And if all goes well this time, a new graphics card and memory for one of my computers

I disagree that the e4c's, in particular, are easy to drive. These are one pair of IEM's that benefit from proper amplification.

I had something similar happen recently. Sucks. And I just realized last night that I had lost my PIN (which I haven't memorized yet). Off to the bank I go. If you're Chevy Chase, they're great to deal with. Feel free to ask for advice. Me: tried to buy a Dual-DVI & CUDA compatible video card and memory for my computer last night. Got rejected for some reason. I hope it's not that again. I hope it's just because of something else.

It's nice to see you remembering your roots. KIDDING Seriously, that was pretty generous of you, Billy. I got an email from my boss.

Oliver Lieb rules.

Do you know who were the VERY special surprise guests?

A man after my own heart. I've actually given that advice to other musicians -- make music interesting enough that even if no-one shows up, you still want to play it.

Acoustic Treatment and Design for Recording Studios and Listening Rooms He had some preplanned rooms somewhere on his site or on his forum that follow Aerius' suggestion -- you'd be surprised by how little room you lose -- but I can't find them right now. It's not a continuous taper, you can taper in sort of a terraced approach, ends up having a sawtooth look to it. I mean, you're going to lose a little bit of space anyway, since garage walls are thinner than house walls -- you're going to have to build them out into the room anyway. Unless you completely demolish the room and start over, which shouldn't be necessary. Also -- as much as he seems to know about room acoustics, he doesn't seem to know (or care to know) anything about soundproofing, so don't go to him for advice in that area. He specializes in minimizing reflections, mostly bass reflections. Another suggestion: humidity control. And I don't mean just get a dehumidifier -- there's a way to design a room to let it "breathe", so you don't have airflow nulls where humidity will accumulate -- make sure that whomever you hire knows this already.
