    It was announced on Fox news yesterday. Therefore it should be repeated 20 more times today. Stay tuned in Tony, I know you are watching.

  • what is this work of which you speak?
  • ^^still putting in the 65 hour work week. Have 2 more years to go and I have 50 years working full time, then I retire. I think that is long enough.

    As long as you enjoy it, it's cool.
    I enjoy some aspects of working, but not others -- I was happy to retire a bit early, and I hope the economy will permit me to stay that way.

    As a (part time) process development consultant, now I get to have all the fun (attacking and helping to solve real problems) with a minimal amount of the drudgery (hiring/firing, performance management, budgeting, preparing dashboards). And it pays, actually, really well on a per hour basis.

    I like to say that being a consultant (in my business) is like being a grandparent. We get to have all of the fun, but we have very little of the dirty work to do.

  • Jesse finally bought an Emotiva "amplifier" with those really cool blue lights!? Well, it's about time!

    Taken from a recent Audioholics reply regarding "Club Polk" and Polk speakers:
    "I'm yet to hear a Polk speaker that merits more than a sentence and 60 seconds discussion." :\
    My response is: If you need 60 seconds to respond in one sentence, you probably should't be evaluating Polk speakers.....

    ... or maybe he snaggged one of these -- so he could roll some coal Chinese tubes.

  • I can neither confirm or deny Jesse's involvement with this thread, but as shocking as him buying an Emotiva product would be, that is not the case here. Such an action would have resulted in a cataclysmic quantum singularity, wiping out the entire universe, as well as their parallel counterparts.


    Nice try though.

    Well put! You just might want to try selling that as a new program to Hulu or even Netflix.
