    I’m learning a lot of new things from the speaker section these days. A lot.

    I may have to go to church. Or take a shower. OR, take a shower at church.
    Where’s the KABOOM?!?! There’s supposed to be an Earth shattering KABOOM!!!

    I got unbanned as well. Wish I would have known I was going to get banned so I really could have done something to earn it. I want massive style points when I go out.

    Well hope all is solved what a brutal attack of hatred spewed on some of our established members and the host of this fine forum. Apparently the poster must of had bad luck as a kid and was totally let down by ol Saint Nicholas throughout his childhood years, and his fascination with candy canes, and firehose's is a tell tale sign of a demented disturbed individual.

    I was shocked to have seen Thread after Thread of him or her and thier aliases indulging in spewing out hatred towards the membership this morning. The world is full of sick individuals and this person tops them all. I hope the IP address of this sorry individual was tracked and the source has been dealt with.

    If so then let us celebrate the occasion by discussing our favorite past time that being our audio obsessions and discuss the fine new products Polk has bestowed upon us. I'm wanting to get my ears on a pair of L800s really bad. To all members new and old carry on. :#

    ... which reminds me of the rejiggered lyrics to one verse in Warren Zevon's Werewolves of London from his outrageous (and very good) live album Stand in the Fire -- a reference to the snuff films that obtained notoriety in those days. :|

    https://youtu.be/9DryqGwNyfU
    I saw a werewolf trying to buy a used car at Del Mar
    It was a blood red Coupe deVille
    He said he was drivin' it to Mexico
    Going down to Tijuana
    Gonna kill somebody in a film or something

    Stereo Review'srock music critic, Steve Simels' assessment of the album:
    "It'll kill your houseplants." Which I took as high praise indeed. :)

    PS Simels was/is my favorite-est rock/pop music critic. Ever. He's still around, blogging. I've exchanged a few e-mails with him over the years and was delighted to find him to be gracious indeed.

    First time for me. It was, well, an experience. One thing I did notice, was that once attacked, we all banded together, worked as a team, communicated, consoled each other, and endured.

    We're all still here! Whew! And, I may add, bonded together a bit more! ;)

    It's about time you junked that '59 rust-bucket, you knock-kneed dollar store nincompoop!

    Dang I had to search for this comment! I read it this morning, almost fell off the can, ahem, I mean slipped in the bathroom, and then remembered it was out there somewhere!

    Why Jimmy, I didn't know you cared so much! :)
