Happy Birthday!

Usually they will upgrade you to HD for free - but there may be a fee for the new set top box (it's required) anywhere from 100 to 200 dollars. Some providers also have a 6-10 dollar a month HD access fee.

There are some people who use CRT's by choice - but the general argument for TV's and monitors is no longer refresh rates, it's black levels. Only plasma and high end LED TV's have reach CRT black levels.

Massa

I know a lot of old faces have moved on, and there are lots of new ones- I just wanted to check in and wish a merry Christmas to all of you here.

I do still lurk occasionally, just spend more time on AVSforum and AV123forum these days than anywhere else, life has become busy with school ...

I got the 550's for 400 dollars, it was a great deal. MLS is a great guy to deal with, I've had the pleasure of dealing with him on the phone for my B-stock MFW-15. All of them are amazing folks. Mark Seaton is also fantastic, such talent for sub design and cabinet building. Count me happy.

I picked up a pair of 550 MKII's used (great price) and a bigfoot center channel. I'm using X-LS encores for surrounds and have X-SLS Encores in the living room.

Massa

Upgradeitis is awful. I just finally got rockets and now I'm already scheming about how to upgrade to LS-6s. I am glad I took your recommendation about AV123 though, VERY glad.

Massa

Very nice indeed. When I saw a GR design for a second I was hoping he was building a pair of LS'es, but I'm not disappointed.

Massa

Massa, are you one of the lucky few that has power?

I hope everything is fine, seen it on the news and it appears that the area received some wide spread damage.

We are lucky here. Power went out on both sides of us but our line stayed intact. Had some high water levels and a few downed trees ...

Massa

I won't be going outside, and we aren't at flood risk here (thank goodness). Just have to ride it out and hope for now downed trees. Hi MD

Downhill, I finally went ahead and bought a bunch of AV123 speakers, you were right!

Massa

Hi all, sure you've been wondering where i've been. I'm down here with my fiancee. We are planning to get married in March. We're starting to get some really nice wind, the rain is arriving shortly. Just thought I'd check in and say hi, with the hurricane blowing over and all. This is my first ...

Massa

As long as the signal has a minimum of macroblocking and compression i'm happy, that said - cable HD seems to have less compression up here, but it's not noticeably different from BEV.

Massa

Shures, Etymotics, Ultimate Ears - you have many options, just head over to head-fi.org and read up a bit first, you'll be glad you did.

Massa

Regular is between 3.50 and 3.75 a gallon US here, and that's in a cheaper portion of the country. In Vancouver prices can reach over 4USD per gallon. And the ironic part is we're massive oil producers.

Massa

Had some good scare moments and Smith is a great actor IMO, so I enjoyed the movie.

Massa

A teaser for DNF, now that's interesting. I want that game to come out just because I loved it so much back in the day.

Massa

Merry Christmas Patrick, enjoy the warmth

. I'm flying south this year as well, just.. to Wisconsin. Not that far south after all.

Massa

I loved Road to Hill 30, will definitely give this one a look.

You have every right to feel the way you do, just remember to take a few days, or weeks if necessary to let your feelings sort themselves out, it's not possible for you to be rational at the moment. She didn't deserve this, but you can honor her memory and over time you will learn to cope with what ...

Massa

Thanks for the weapon and armor loans. I was flying back home to see my parents this afternoon and evening, but I'll probably see you online today sometime.

Massa

Well I may have just started but it does seem pretty enjoyable, I applied to ABS.

Massa

Canadian microbreweries are really good, but the domestic beer up here sucks. That said, the US domestic beers I've tried tasted like watered down ass.

Massa

Speaking from the medical side (My father is a doctor up here), we do tend to struggle in some ways. A lot of what has happened in Canada and would likely happen in the US is that funding wouldn't always be there to keep everything going. A large number of our hospitals in rural areas especially may ...

Massa

Not sure if you're willing to ship to Canada, but tentative dibs on the headset.

That's a lot of gmail accounts Lefty :P.

Unfortunately - charcoal and ash are carcinogens.

This whole argument really ties very little into true evolution or evolutionary biology (which has little to do with classic Darwinism anymore). Genetic drift among other factors is causing our species to evolve physically very slowly, and we're not sure where this is going. As to the social and ...

I listened to Mindcrime at the Moore.. just not my style. I'm more of a powermetal fan.

Not at all, I use foobar to manage my iPod and it works wonderfully.

This thread necromancy has to stop, i'm losing track of time.

Massa

I have an iPod, and it's because I want all my music with me all the time at work. If it wasn't for that, I wouldn't own one.

That last link makes me think islamic propaganda, but - well it's just too stupid to give it that much credence even.

It is physically impossible for any component of a satellite to land intact at that scale without other remnants being nearby, which would also mean the entire satellite was ...

Ditto, does this actually work? I saw the infomercial and was a little less skeptical than usual only because you are still lifting, not some magic electro-strap.

Not a common song but it's catchy as heck, and I can't stop listening to it lately.

Watching the marathon on A&E I take it?

Massa

Running is tough that's for sure, always been my least favorite aerobic exercise. I like the elliptical myself.

I heard there were about 3 spinoffs, DD never came back afaik and the other one we all probably know about. Sanjay's "real" replacement is like some uber secret site with limited access from what i was told.

How the hell do you get locked in a garage?

Pretty stupid actually, the door to the outside was permanently shut because of crap piled outside it and the main garage door won't open without entering a code in a panel if you don't have the opener. So I had to wait around for about 20 ...
