I don't know if you are one of the people affected by the split with Doug Jesse, but here is the Audio Asylum link and here is what owner Kyle Takanega claimed he would do for such people: "Dear Asylum Members, RAM has always been committed to providing the best possible service within our human abilities. Alain has already contacted me, and I have already agreed to install the mod for him as he was promised. In fact, I have done this for several customers in which Doug Jesse has failed to do so. This has been an ongoing process since we essentially "fired" him as an independent contractor in Jan 2008. Another fact I want to make clear is the that Doug Jesse was NEVER a business partner of Reference Audio Mods...just and independent installer. Due to his intentional fraud and deceit we had no choice in our decision to part ways. RECAP: 1. RAM will make good on any audio modification which was sent to Doug Jesse when he was an installer for RAM. If one is not sure if the mod was complete we are more then happy to inspect the unit and verify per agreement. Any missing or incorrect parts will be installed FREE of charge 2.RAM cannot address any wrong doings of ASi Teknologies. This has to be addressed directly to Doug Jesse 3.We welcome any phone calls or e-mails in regards to this situation for further clarification Reference Audio Mods:951-780-2869, [email protected] Sincerely, Kyle Takenaga"

My understanding is that Justin is coming for sure, but I don't know when he shows up and whether he really wants to celebrate his b-day on friday night, etc. We should ping him. He is in silent but deadly mode.

I enjoyed the Weeds, although it started a little slow. Albert Brooks is a fun addition, and I cracked up over the "I saw my grandmother's vagina" line by Andy. You think they're playing up the milfyness at all?

I'm clearly being too literal, but when you said iPod + headphones I was wondering why you left out the Pico. Thus, the cable offer. I still have and RnB180 Black Diamond (?) plus the RnB180 gold reference cable I bought from grawk eons ago, and I hardly ever use them because I have an 5G iMod that requires the special dock.

I'm going to a wedding, so either I am out of contention or will catch up with you'all later. Now Friday, aka Justin's birthday, is another matter....

That's just goofy on the UE front. I have held out a long time on getting customs because Westone offered to have me be a beta tester on their Custom 3s. Still waiting for the universal to even arrive, and the Custom comes later. Anyway, why not use the Nano-->Pico-->ESW9? I have mini cables if you are in need...

Will do.

October would likely be earliest for me with other commitments, my wife's birthday, and our anniversary all in September. Let me try to pin down the guy planning another (non-audio) event and I will let you know. And thanks for even entertaining the scheduling issues...

You were kinda sleepy after that first long night of partying...

Add some nice AD2Ks for great sound but openness (I can hear the phone ring with them on at my desk rig). Dew eet!

Unless it gets sold in the meantime, Todd has agreed to send the TTVJ 307A amp to the meet. I guess we have to hope for the economy to keep sucking for a couple more weeks! Nice work by rhythmdevils for making the request.

Terrible timing for me, but I guess we'll see.

I'm still interested in that other idea you had at CJ08.

Grats Jack! I just spent some quality time with my Rockhopper Beta this weekend and was very happy. Enjoy!

I'm on vacation that week in Montana and Wyoming so I don't have any chance at all to make the meet. Sorry to miss out. :'(

I hope you get to do the cool stuff and shake it up. Maybe we should put together some mixes with all Archie Shepp, Albert Ayler, Don Cherry, and Pharaoh Sanders, Eric Dolphy and Sun Ra just to fuck with your office mate.

But wasn't this the first day at the new job, Jacob? How was it?

Holy crap, tons of emails flooded my blackberry after being out of service area for a day and at least 100 were email notifications for reply to threads since the vBulletin switch! I just figured out that the vB default must be to subscribe to every thread you reply to, and I made the mistake in Options of choosing Instant Email Notification. I just wanted the default subscription to be instant notification, but I sure as hell didn't want to subscribe to every thread I post in. Fixed now. Thanks for all the work on the new site Todd.

lol. Maybe cropped like my new avvy would be a better smiley.

Sorry. Taking pics of a black puppy is harder than I expected. Here are some shots, starting with Mae on her ride home on our first day together and ending with Psycho Puppy Attack!

Those are some cute kittens Salty. I woke up at 5:20am to let out the puppy and then managed to get back to sleep until just before 7am. Did a little quiet surfing and playing with the pup until the kids finally woke up around 9am. I just had breakfast of pancakes and bacon made by he kids, and my daughter made my second cappuccino. The first one had little foam peaks like the cover of Joy Division's Unknown Pleasures album, and the second had a heart shaped from coffee in the white foam. Sweet, and if I had a card reader I would post a pic of the heart cup. Spinning a couple records, opened a very cool lamp the kids picked out at a groovy design store. Life is good. Gotta call my dad.

Thanks for appeasing us with the pic, Papa Nate. Have a wonderful first Father's Day and many more to come!

Chris- Have you bought direct from Concord Records? They have a lot of discs at really low prices. Not sure what is available vs. what you are after, but here is the link to the main page but don't forget to click the "browse all OJC artists" link to dig deeper.
