Eh? A joke, not avery funny one I'm afraid. Well no, there's probably a chuckle in there somewhere. :-) |

A bug eater's life
"George M. Middius" cmndr [underscore] george [at] comcast [dot] net wrote in message ... Poor Mickey. I'm feeling a little regret over the way I keep kicking you. That's OK, though, because high end merchandise is not aimed at the likes of Arnii Krooger. Smart people? I don't know what you're grunting and straining to get out, Mickey, but I do feel compassion for your pain. It's marketed to Normals of sufficiently high station in life who are able to appreciate it. Stupid people with money? I think all the Normals should take a breath here and reflect on whether we've been overly mean to poor Mikey. As Morein has noted, poor Mikey is a Special Person. Perhaps, instead of continually mocking and spanking him, we should coddle him a little more. After all, he's obviously oblivious to how Normals perceive him. Like that keeps me up nights. He doesn't realize we're expending effort to humor him; he believes we feel challenged by his inchoate mutterings. Sometimes. Mostly I just figure you ignore anything that makes sense. Mickey, I am a little sorry for some of the meaner things I've said about you. On some occasions, I went further than your nastiness warranted. You do that to anybody you disagree with. I realize you can't help being a basket case, and I should make a greater effort to indulge you when you throw your tantrums and foam at the mouth. Never happens. Perhaps in the future, I'll be able to maintain a higher standard of tolerance when you turn into Mr. Mikey-Hyde. I wonder what it is you think you know, because it's almost a certainty that you have it wrong. |

As long as I don't have to hear form Mikey about how road systems can be developed without the underlying threat of eminent domain. Ooooh look another mistake. |

What is meant by 'timing'
John Atkinson wrote: Roger Thorpe wrote: What do they mean when they say that Crasnovorsky Thumpolux transistor radio, now available at 'only' 180 euros with real wood veneer, has excellent 'timing' Martin Colloms wrote about this phenomenon for Stereophile in 1992. See http://www.stereophile.com/reference/23/. Thanks for posting the above, although I disagree with the above. A sample from the above: "the vinyl LP disc possesses a powerful and effortlessly musical content, with an easy, fundamental rhythmic stability and solidity. Interestingly, this innate character" So apparently just being a vinyl LP gives the recording all these wonderful qualities. "With analog, one can listen through the blemishes and be aware of a strong musical message, one in which the music's flow, pace, and tempo" That's assuming the turntable's motor is turning the LP at the correct speed all the time.
