Spend time with your father. You never know when he will be gone for good.
Happy fathers day!

I'm a charter Dish Network customer. I pay one bill every Jan. For me its running $320 a year for the Top 150. Im on top of a little mountain here at the house and I get 36 digital over-the-air channels. These are mostly HD channels and they are free. Compared to you guys I'm watching on the cheap!

I would go see them in person with ticket in hand. I'm month to month with AT&T and buy my phones on Ebay. That way there is no confusion and no underhanded contract extensions your unaware of. Also call and make sure your month to month before disputing something.
Now I have gone into a car dealership and helped sell cars. You could try that one. It will either get you satisfaction or they will call the police.

Thats really interesting stuff and thought I might share a few guitars I have owned and played. A 1930s Gibson L5 comes to mind. That was a sweet one. I owned a '72 Strat for many years and presently own a D' Angelico L-5 sized jazz model. I used to hunt em myself and found a couple of prizes over the years. I found a Gibson SG once while in the military for $100, but nothing valued at the price points mentioned above. My favorite to play I got for my 15th B'day in 1978. Its a DY57 Alvarez Yairi signed by the man himself. I play it for my acoustic needs. I have a 91' Jackson Soloist (shark fin inlays) that I should just sell. Its near mint and I hate to play it because I'm afraid I might scratch it. I must say though, Its a great axe for playing along with ZZ top on the "guitar player" computer software.
As a player I do not stay with the guitar over time. I can put it down for periods of many months. As one might imagine this has really hurt my playing ability. To be honest, watching guitar superstarts on Youtube hasn't inspired me one bit. Check out Monte Montgomery's "little wing" on there. He is playing a Yairi on that one. Alas, I realize I do not have that set of guitar tools.

So far in this era of basketball we are wanting and not quite getting. JORDAN 6 leage MVPs...........KOBE 1 league MVP.
Not to mention Jordan wins in "every" statistical catagory. There honestly is no comparison.
Did Jordan ever go 5 for 10 down the stretch from the free line during a finals series? I don't think so.
Back in the Jordan era I was working all up and down the Eastern seaboard. WGN out of Chicago carried all the Bulls reg. season home games and what a show it was.

The top side is pretty. Like you say, the bottom side certainly needs some attention. Its a neat amp. Interesting how you can choose the equalization standard.

WOW, guess I've been lucky. But I haven't tried a Madison Fielding 320 yet.
I'm sure some expert advice will be along shortly preventing you from letting the smoke out.
Lets see a picture of the blown up Mac. How did that happen?

How does it sound?

Don Richards is tri-amping Khorns too I think. I'm tube tri-amping some JBL/Klipsch horn speakers I put together.
I really have a ball "adjusting" my setup with the actives. I've noticed you can take horns lower with the steeper slopes actives can offer too. Not only getting freq. but with things like phase and time alignment only a button or knob away I have tried every combination. Have fun.
-
I'm no expert, but if it were mine... It'd be getting a slow wind up on a variac after a careful visual inspection and speaker hookup. Watching one come to life after a long silence is the best part of hunting up old tube gear IMHO.
-
What's the tube compliment? Have you tried it?

"and it is perfectly legal"
Come on now.

"hornheads" what else?

Phil Jackson: 10 championships. Guess he is the greatest in NBA history. Not the most likeable coach I have ever watched, buy hey, he can win em.
I had kinda thought Lebron had moved past Kobe as the greatest player on the planet. Hard to say that after Kobe takes his team to a championship while Lebron watches from the couch.
Orlando: They have all summer to think about it. Gonna be a long summer for those guys I guess.

Just wondering....am I the only one here still watching this series?[^o)]
Wake up Orlando!

"I'll use my Silverado SS's full time AWD"
Thats real funny. Just had a vision of you in that down at the huntin club. SS would stand for "simply sunk"[<

I highly suggest Silverados with limited slip differentials over 4x4. Late model 4WD pickups are for making insurance co's money. Get an old beater for huntin and fishin.[
]I own both types.

I've been inspired.[<

As of Jan. this year just over 800 Marines had been killed in Iraq. Very hard to imagine that many have died in motorcycle wrecks.
Here is the story. Its referring to the last 12 months, not totals over years of time.. 25 by motorcycle and 20 in Iraq. Disturbing stats regardless.

Worst officiated game I have seen in a while. Missed calls, wrong calls, etc. No way Kobe didn't foul Nelson near the end of overtime.
Just way too many bad calls that helped determine the outcome. Some great effort by players on both sides. Who'd a thunk Fisher would hit those huge 3s?
-
Its halftime and officiating aside Dwight Howard is having his best game yet. He is doing it all. Did I just watch him do a running hook? Orlando wants it really bad and LA doesn't seem to be nearly as concerned IMHO. Barring a Kobe breakout later Im thinkin this one will be 2-2 later tonight.
-
Sounds like you did good NOT buying a tv tonight then.

My grandfather's favortie dish: Start with sweet potatoes slow cooked in a covered iron pot. Then he would cut the sweet potatoes long ways and pour bacon grease over generously. Mom, being a nurse and knowing better fussed at him for eatin em and to Grandmother for cookin em. They never listened. Poor guy finally succombed to the side affects, he was 92. Only thing I can figure is he was sweating that grease out working.[

One additional thing I will comment on and thats the glare problem. When shopping back a few months ago I noticed this difference in the LCD 50" tvs:
Sonys have a nonglare matt type finish on the screens. The Samsungs have a highly reflective finish. The difference was huge when trying to watch in the store.

All that was left was a "grease spot" in the road.
