This is the only reason I'm happy I have natural gas. It's always there, and the bill comes every month. For as many power outages as I've had... I've never had a natural gas outage.
Seriously, though... I had to buy a case of lionshead for this weeked (aka - Lionspiss). Couldn't swing the 19.50 for Yuengling... had to go for the $13 case....
Time to play a round of... "You know you're an alcoholic when...."Ludicrous gibs! -
Well.... i'm getting for xmas some toys, though....
Speaker spikes for my Esprits FINALLY.
Nice speaker cable
Yaqin CD-2
And probably a bunch of cds.
My presents to myself won't come around til March, and then i have to decide if i want to concentrate on audio or cars at that point.I don't read the newsssspaperssss because dey aaaallllllllll...... have ugly print.

We are getting ourselves a new feather comforter and duvet. 500$ a month gas bills are on their way. . the joys of an old house with character. Our office, instead of the usually swanky party, has collectively decided to forgo it this year, and donate the funds to the Greater Boston food bank and the local homeless shelter.-Ignorance is strength -

You Bostonians are the best! Nice of you guys to help out others. -
I've had an extended early Christmas. Got the Oppo BDP-83... then Rock Band 2 for my 360... then an Onkyo TX-NR1007... then a pair of Monitor 30s to use as height channels... and since getting the Oppo, I've bought 60+ Blu-ray discs.
The funny part is that I've kinda shot my wad at this point, and will have nothing new at Christmas. But man, is my living room rockin' now! Equipment list:
Onkyo TX-NR3010 9.2 AVR
Emotiva XPA-3 amp
Polk RTi70 mains, CSi40 center, RTi38 surrounds, RTi28 rears and heights
SVS 20-39CS+ subwoofer powered by Crown XLS1500
Oppo BDP-93 Blu-ray player
DarbeeVision DVP5000 video processor
Epson 8500UB 1080p projector
Elite Screens Sable 120" CineWhite screen -
