Salt Peanuts Posted January 12, 2009 Report Posted January 12, 2009 Went to work on time instead of hour and half early as I did all last week. Administered the last of never-ending performance feedbacks for the month of December and left work on time. Just finished replacing the two light switches that had started to act up. I repadded 1 1/2 Lambdas. 1 1/2?
The Monkey Posted January 12, 2009 Report Posted January 12, 2009 1 1/2? Stupid ratfuck double-sided tape got screwed up on one side, so I need to buy moar double-sided tape. Hopefully with extreme bass. He's got one of the rare mono Lambdas. Exactly! I use it as my cell phone earpiece.
The Monkey Posted January 13, 2009 Report Posted January 13, 2009 Finished the last 1/2 of the Lambdas. I think they look and sound great. I like the fabric mesh that replaced the foam. The new pads are more comfortable and seal better. Etch smetch.
Fitz Posted January 14, 2009 Report Posted January 14, 2009 Found where I put that bigass sheet of eggcrate foam, and cut out a couple 3'x3' pieces to stick on the wall behind my new speakers.
cetoole Posted January 14, 2009 Report Posted January 14, 2009 Recalibrated my oscilloscope, measured a power supply, found that all the SMD rework I had done (or at least, most of it) was for nothing, and that my Fluke's AC measurement is crap.
Sherwood Posted January 14, 2009 Report Posted January 14, 2009 Birthed a coyote pup under a power substation.
Hopstretch Posted January 14, 2009 Report Posted January 14, 2009 Did you remember to eat the afterbirth?

Voltron Posted January 14, 2009 Report Posted January 14, 2009 participated in a dog and pony show for dept of commerce budget folks Which one were you?
Dusty Chalk Posted January 15, 2009 Report Posted January 15, 2009 Visited my mom in the hospital. She's fine. It gets tiresome, repeating this, but you never know when it's going to be the real one. It was nice to see her network of friends and church parishioners at work in full force.
Knuckledragger Posted January 15, 2009 Report Posted January 15, 2009 Visited my doctor. I am now prescribed the maximum daily dosage of Ritalin as decreed by the FDA. If any doubt remained about me being the poster child for attention deficit disorder, let it be crushed once and for all. I also ran umpteen errands, visited my mother, bought eight LED lights for my basement (it's amazing how bright a 0.15W light can be) half a dozen brass switch plates, and exchanged seven emails with a cable maker.
riceboy Posted January 15, 2009 Author Report Posted January 15, 2009 Listened to a whole bunch of tubes that I ordered. Overall I'm very, very happy and am going to slow down for a while now. Now I'm getting ready to clear out gear that I never, ever use. Also playing a lot with Windows 7 too
Smeggy Posted January 15, 2009 Report Posted January 15, 2009 I went off to pick up the wife's prescription at the drugstore and then dropped into Rat shack, three guesses where the prescription is now Wonder if it'll still be there tomorrow....
jinp6301 Posted January 15, 2009 Report Posted January 15, 2009 My gmail's been in Account Maintenance mode for the past 24 hours and they dont seem like they're gonna put it back to normal anytime soon.
grawk Posted January 15, 2009 Report Posted January 15, 2009 don't suppose you've tried the support email at gmail
jinp6301 Posted January 15, 2009 Report Posted January 15, 2009 I did. They sent me a standard "We're working on it" email back to me.
Aimless1 Posted January 15, 2009 Report Posted January 15, 2009 I just lost my friend, mentor and boss after a long fight with cancer. Good man...one of those quiet leader and lead by example types. I'm in a somber mood with a crater in my heart.

Dusty Chalk Posted January 15, 2009 Report Posted January 15, 2009 Condolences. I just brought my mom home from the hospital and got my allergy shot. I could come to hate these, I always feel like crap for days afterwards.
Smeggy Posted January 16, 2009 Report Posted January 16, 2009 I took one of my cats to the vet this morning, they still don't know what the problem is but they're trying to stop me worrying about the cat by giving me a $400 bill to worry about instead. Fuck, vets are expensive. I can see this easily going skywards past $1000 in no time
Duggeh Posted January 16, 2009 Report Posted January 16, 2009 Studied for my exam on Saturday. Watched The Ax Fight and The Hunters (which counted as revision:cool:). Created an unfortunately foul pasta sauce and had a ham sandwich for tea instead. Also suffered a libelous and racist attack from Stanley Beresford.
