JBryan Posted February 4, 2004 Share Posted February 4, 2004 From what I'm reading, this is definietly NOT the place to discuss the audio preferences of "normal" people. Asking a klipschster why normal folk eschew fine audio gear is like asking a Vermont farmer why texans don't eat pork barbeque. Klipschsters must know their place in the audioworld pecking order.

TBrennan Posted February 4, 2004 Share Posted February 4, 2004 Liam? An oxymoron. That's Irish for Billy, a name hated in Ireland unless you beat the drum in July and then of course you'd never use the form Liam. At least in Armagh and Down anyway. :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seadog Posted February 4, 2004 Share Posted February 4, 2004 I guess I am raising two sons who will not be "normal". My six-year-old told me the other day that we need to get more speakers (I told him that I like the way he thinks). My three-year-old thinks that the Heresys are his. Neither kid will watch a DVD unless it is in surround audio. My wife is frustrated with all of us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My 5-year-old is already hooked on big guitar riff rock music. His favorite song is "Smoke on the Water" - and he begs me to play it over and over again - unfortunately, it's on vinyl, so I have to limit his intake, lest I wear it out! I don't understand what the problem with the "rock drummer" career choice is. My son is showing decided interest in drums, and I'm all for it. As a former "rock guitarist", "rock bassist", and "rock singer", I can tell you it's a lot easier to get a job when you're a good skin-basher than a good "concert pianist" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3dzapper Posted February 5, 2004 Share Posted February 5, 2004 For you youngsters who don't know what ethyl is: Ethyl is a former term for Hi-test gas. Named such for the added amount of tetra-ethyl lead to increase the octane to around 100. But then that was when men were men and cars had muscle! I pumped gas in my teens at 18.9 cents a gallon,ethyl was 22.9C/gal.(cir. 1964) Rick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
