    Alright!!!! Congratulations! Try not to spend it all on hookers and blow:D
    I never had it like this where I grew up. But I send my kids here because the fact is you go to one of the best schools in the country: Rushmore. Now, for some of you it doesn't matter. You were born rich and you're going to stay rich. But here's my advice to the rest of you: Take dead aim on the rich boys. Get them in the crosshairs and take them down. Just remember, they can buy anything but they can't buy backbone. Don't let them forget it. Thank you.Herman Blume - Rushmore

    I was watching Married with Children last night and saw an episode where Al Bundy got a loan from his next door neighbor (the banker) because it won him a trip to Vegas. Similar circumstances here? :D

    Congrats!

    Well, I just pulled off the impossible by doing a double-blind comparison all by myself, purely by virtue of the fact that I completely and stupidly forgot what I did last. I guess that getting old does have its advantages after all :D

    oh believe me, the $5k/pr speaker research is on-going...LOL Cool thing is, the $5k segment is loaded with fierce competition with some very fine speakers to pick from.
