    I can't pull up the link. Drat.
    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

    Linky is bad.
    Please. Please contact me a ben62670 @ yahoo.com. Make sure to include who you are, and you are from Polk so I don't delete your email. Also I am now physically unable to work on any projects. If you need help let these guys know. There are many people who will help if you let them know where you are.
    Thanks
    Ben

    It may have something to do with the Playback ezine Polk sends out. I went back to my email and NONE of the links to the ezine work now. It's part of AVguide.com. Maybe it will work later. Sorry.

    I'm still blaming spasticpitbull just on principle alone.

    "Watching him adeptly run the system, along with his ability to put his hands on any piece of music he wanted to play, showed me that all this gear wasn't for the sake of having the gear, but of using it as a vehicle for exploring the world of music.

    Besides his gear and equipment being ultra-mega-uber-cool, his attitude is pretty cool, too.

    That dual arm Thorens TT is GD massive.

    No polks in sight. He should at least have a set of SRT's or TL's.

    Is it me or is that Gold Turntable the most blingy looking thing ever. I hope it sounds better than it looks.

    I will admit I am extremely jealous. He has got to be single.
