Well,, it's been over 40 hours since I've been at work.

See my other thread comments about the need for you to go
get a real job with real workable benefits. Otherwise, you
will still be waiting tables when you are 75.

Frankly, I
don't need you to tell me what better things I have to do than
whatever it is that I'm doing at the time that I'm doing it. I think
I'm a better judge than you are.

The future is closing in, Dave. You have to get away from
what is essentially a service job and get a real job, with a
pension arrangement for the future, and then also sock some
some money away in high-yield securities for future use.

Dave, waiting tables is a dead-end job. You need to get a
real job, so you are still not, as I said above, waiting
tables when you are 75 years old.

BTW, when was the last time you saw live music?

Last night. My wife sings in the shower.

What were you doing peeking at your wife in the shower? Did she know
that you were looking?

Dave, yours is an interesting comment. A guy like you, who
can only happily and satisfactorily judge audio products
while looking at them during sighted comparisons, has no
concept of not needing to look while listening.

Mine was last Friday
night when I saw the Finn Bros. play at the Mercy Lounge (a great show
from some artists that you've probably even reviewed at some point,
even if you don'tknow who they are).

Never heard of them. Never have reviewed them, either.

Shame that you've never reviewed a Crowded House album. I suspect that
you'd like them (for "rock music" that is). singing "Hey now, hey
now, don't dreeeeeam it's over..."

Anybody who uses rock music for reviewing audio products is
a dunderhead. OK, I have used them for spot checking during
speaker reviews, but for the serious stuff I use serious
music.
