    Gentlemen: while we bask in the satisfaction of having reached these rarefied levels, let us not forget; we only have reached these heights because we have stood on the shoulders of giants !!!



    *sniff*


    I was there when men landed on the moon .......


    ........ I was there when they pulled Baby Jessica out of the well...


    And now. I was there when the Emotiva thread reached 1000 + posts !!


    Quo Vadis, eh Brutus ..... quo vadis ?

    I believe it's warmer and Curt is actually working again. He won't have so much time on his hands.

    Yeah...you're all going to have to get used to me not carrying the post count of this forum on my shoulders. You all need to speed it up a little bit...c'mon now people.:p

    I thought that maybe they were complaining about us suggesting that Emotiva might not be all that they claim to be ... and couldn't figure out why that might annoy them enough to be upset about it ...

    They mentioned that too.

    Is there any consensus over there on the topic? Any interesting comparison testing?

    No, it was a bashfest of our forum and Matt.

    I'm listening to the 7B's. What an addicting sound. I wonder how would they sound with an EMO.

    Eff 'em Carver sucks :D. If I wanted to be reminded of the '80's I'd wear spandex and leg warmers. :)

    I was under the impression that you wore spandex and leg warmers all the time, regardless of whether or not you wanted to be reminded of the 80's. Was I wrong in thinking this?:confused::p

    I have the pics, and if he does not turn over the SDA's tomorrow, I'll publish them right here......(Blake sent them to me after hearing what Brock volunteered him for in another thread)

    It's not pretty, and the headband put it waaay over the line.

    So is this the official uniform for all of the RAS get togethers? I might have trouble complying with that...I find it hard to tear myself away from these Daisy Dukes. Seriously...you wouldn't believe how hard it is to take these things off.:p



    On a lighter note...I just had a close call. I just finished my beer...went to get another one, realized it was my last one. Luckily, I have a gas station about a block away...I managed to walk there and made it within about a minute of them closing...this could have been very tragic had it not worked out in my favor.
