Dusty Chalk Posted December 11, 2007 Report Posted December 11, 2007 How about "took receipt of"? I just took receipt of two blankets (one for my sister) and a pimp coat.
n_maher Posted December 11, 2007 Report Posted December 11, 2007 perv. I learned it by watching you, all right?
pabbi1 Posted December 12, 2007 Report Posted December 12, 2007 More Equation Audio RP-21, to get them balanced to go with the MillettMaxx OPUS monstrosity. The search for decent balanced closed headphones continues. Booma, you were right - the D2000 just aren't that good (5k are better, just not to me for this application), and after whipping out the Equations on the road again, just gotta try balanced - at $80 shipped, why not throw a $200 balanced cable at 'em? Oops, and \I gotta get those Beyer leather pads, maybe the red... After traveling for a week in London, that is not even a measurable blip on the radar.
mjg Posted December 12, 2007 Report Posted December 12, 2007 Wow, certainly isn't cheap... It's cool they have their gym in the house. Cardio for 5 or 6 times a week from the get go sounds a bit rough. Just my 2 cents: As important as cardio is, most of your results will come from the right diet. Best of luck! I know. The past year and a half has been the only time in my life that I haven't worked out or been involved in some physical activity. I can't believe I let myself go like this...ugh. About four years back I also dated my trainer, but that didn't work out so well when I dumped him (he was way too into himself), and going to the gym became something to avoid since he worked there and turned into a real ass every time I showed up. Anyway, I just met with the trainers (husband and wife) and handed over two-weeks pay just for starters. Good thing I got a hefty bonus last month...Thrice is probably laughing since he knows why. They work out of their home, and I gotta say their cardio room is nice as it's also a very large home theater room. I think I'm going to like these people. I'm allowed to show up whenever I want, walk on in, choose what I want to watch and/or listen to and get going, and as long as I show up 5-6 days a week for cardio on my own, they give a "discount" (minimal) on the weight training three times a week. You don't show up for cardio, they raise the rates on personal training. That works for me.
Dusty Chalk Posted December 13, 2007 Report Posted December 13, 2007 I have found my watch.Well, never buy anything via mail-order from Barney's, they suck. Cancelled my order after telling me that if they couldn't find it in the warehouse, they'd check the stores. I happened to know for a fact that it was at one of my local stores, so once they finally got their collective head out of their collective ass (there's an image for you), I went across the street and got it. So yes, I now have my fucking watch, no thanks to Barney's NY, but thanks to Co-Op Georgetown (although they weren't perfect either -- they tried to sell me the wrong watch the first time, after they were called and told to put the correct watch on hold for me). But it all worked out in the end, and I didn't miss my meeting with my boss' boss' boss, so all is well. Moral of the story is, don't buy from Barney's mail-order, check their website and see if you can find a local store first. If not, try to find one near a friend. It really is absolutely perfect. The hands aren't black, but then I wouldn't be able to tell time at all, so I think some color is okay.
postjack Posted December 14, 2007 Report Posted December 14, 2007 Just ordered the original Megaforce vinyl in NM condition from a reliable seller!
hungrych Posted December 14, 2007 Report Posted December 14, 2007 Tell me how it is, my regular CD sounds like shit.

boomana Posted December 14, 2007 Report Posted December 14, 2007 lifting gloves heart rate monitor These people (husband and wife tag team) are killing me. At least I learned today that I can still do pull ups (even if I won't be able to lift a coffee cup tomorrow) and that Beethoven's 9th is great for cardio.
en480c4 Posted December 14, 2007 Report Posted December 14, 2007 Well, last time I mentioned it, it was for signing the P&S. But my closing was today, so I guess my condo officially qualifies. Pretty exciting day.
n_maher Posted December 14, 2007 Report Posted December 14, 2007 MINI MEET, MINI MEET, MINI MEET, MINI MEET!!!
n_maher Posted December 15, 2007 Report Posted December 15, 2007 Oh my! I'll be curious to hear your impressions given the mixed reviews they seem to be getting over at HF.
Salt Peanuts Posted December 15, 2007 Report Posted December 15, 2007 Nice one, Justin! Are the grills black as well?
spritzer Posted December 15, 2007 Report Posted December 15, 2007 Nice one, Justin! Are the grills black as well? Yup! Congrats Justin and let me know what you think off them. I'll hold out for now to see how the Purtscheller headphone business develops but I have one SR-007A on hold.
