    Well, this post messes up the math, but life isn’t static.

    I don’t remember exactly when, but it was back in the early part of the 21st century. I love saying that. :)

    I remember arguing with people over using LSi speakers with an AVR. I had no issues with a Sony and Onkyo driving four LSi15, and a LSiC, but I kept on hearing that I can’t do that. LOL

    Anyway, at that time I was using my real name and location on the forum. While I admit I am slow, I eventually realized that it wasn’t the smartest thing to post your name and location on the Internet, especially when you are listing audio gear.

    So, at some point I adopted my current name, based on my car at the time, a 1987 VW Fox, which was blue.

    And now I need 40 posts.

    Good to know! That comes down to 1000 posts a year or roughly three a day. Is it coincidence a developer also averages three lines of code a day?

    Oh the good life Bud!! I will see you soon. July 20 to 23. Will be there early 20th on Friday and have some time Saturday.

    I wanna wiggle wiggle to your Magico’s.

    One day you do three lines, and then spend two days fixing it. LOL

    I will be here on Saturday, although groggy. The stereo will be ready to go. :)

    Haha. Cheers!! Saturday it is. Will get in touch soon. But don’t pass out on me like TonyB at Lonestar. Haha. Kidding again. Maybe if I kid enough people will think I am not really kidding.

    I do code about three lines a day. If there are bugs that is what the minion new college grads have to correct. Hands on experience, learning how to debug after hours. Haha.

    Cheers.

    Lawn darts call for augmentation -- maybe shots of tequila?

    True story -- we were at a Fourth of July party north of Baltimore some years back. We were having fun with one of those three person slingshot water balloon launchers... until one shot went awry and took out the side window of a neighbor's truck in their driveway. Oops.

    The neighbor was surprisingly gracious -- he was one of the partygoers, fortunately.

    Beer may have been involved.

    24 to go if I did the math right. I should do this next weekend since I ordered 3 MQA encoded CDs and they should be here by Friday, and then I can post my opinion of MQA. :)

    You should make a bunch of asterisks posts like Skip. You could have your "10,000 posts badge" within minutes.
