    I'll drink to that, as I now get up to go get beer #2, and return to watching last night's Caprica.

    Of course if we have to actually drink whenever the word E#%$%^$% is mentioned we will turn into alcoholics. :eek:

    congrats Moe on becoming our new bartender. I figured since there are more characters here than on the Simpsons, a guy with the name Moe would be a good fit for the job.:D;)

    Old Fitz Bonded, drinking some Bourbon with class and just a little snap to it. I get fed up with all of the "boutique" booze, it has its place from a marketing and trend stand point but this is classic in your face bourbon. Made to exacting standards and with consistant quality. Good on you!!!!

    Emotiva has a new monoblock 200W/350W 8ohm/4ohm rated amp available.

    Called the UPA-1, it is perhaps the best new $300 monoblock amp on the planet.
    Hope this brightens your day a little.:)

    They look like viable candidates for my surrounds. I will definitely check them out.
