    Yeah but I dont wanna get into a Snake Oil debate for instance a "are monoprice cables better than blue jeans" or the even better "Monster cable are actually underpriced cause they are soooo awesome", or the best of all "Bose is the Best.." :)

    as far as getting better it all depends on what they see come the fun I have on monday...nothing like a scope and then CT scans to make one feel super for the day :)... this after having one scope on Friday lol.... and if I am really lucky maybe a surgery this week too.... i hit the "sicky" jackpot.....

    My hospital bill is going to kill any upgrade fund I had from my bonus (so long LSi9, LSiC, SVS PC-12NSD) lol...

    Thankfully my wife just got a part time gig and possibly a better full time gig (1 dollar more an hour and 20% off our rent too)....

    Ben

    Thankfully I do, but I am on day 5 of hospitalization (and here at least tomorrow if not longer depending on the results of my stuff tomorrow) and get to have 2 more expensive procedures to add to the 1 I have already had....I am looking at a 30k bill more than likely before insurance...thankfully I met my deductible, but since I got married my out of pocket max went from 3k for just me to 6k for both of us, so I owe 10% of whatever insurance wont cover....

    I like to feel directly connected to the music, so I usually will stand in a bucket of water with one hand holding the bare wire in a lite socket and the other holding the other end of the wire, which is plugged into my gear. I just don't understand where that burning smell keeps coming from, but the realism is spectacular right down to the pirotechnics!:biggrin::tongue::wink:
