Whats up guys (and gals?). It's been a while, eh? I stepped back on US soil in December, and I'm getting settlted back in Houston. Iraq was a blast, literally. har har

It's been two years since I packed up my LSi15's and stashed them in a cozy climate controlled storage unit, and boy did I miss them. I'm realizing it now more than ever. It's good to be home.

System Update: I've added a Rotel rsx-1056, and a 44" LG LCD monitor/TV. Should be getting a Rotel DVD player soon. I had thought of getting some Martin Logan's, but after hearing the LSi15's with the 1056/RB-990, NO WAY. :D

I've gotta boogie, I'm heading to Austin today. Just wanted to say hi, and let everyone know that I made it back home safely, and that I'll be around a little bit more now.

BTW, when I unpacked my LSi15's I found that I had somehow misplaced or lost one set of spikes/feet for them. I emailed Polk Customer Service wanting to buy another set, and whadda ya know... they're sending me some at no charge. Just another reminder or why Polk kicks @55.

Looking forward to catching up with everyone, and the next Polkster meet. Later!

    I very much appreciate it, but let me clarify. I was over there as a civilian contractor, working with KBR and the logistical support contract that they have for the military. The military protected my rear the whole time I was there, while making 1/4 of what I was making. They never complained a bit, and they deserve all of the respect. :)

    Polkatese: Oh yes, there will be pics coming :)

    Nice to see you back Phuz, no matter what the capacity of service. Welcome home.

    If you hurry up over to the Flea Market, you can get a little piece of Scott just like old times. Today he's under the name Iamgod.
