I say let her use them as long as you feel comfortable with it. I've tried doing what you're doing with my own family, and it really hasn't worked out all that well, but things are still holding together. Its really cool that you're doing this for people who really aren't your responsibility.

Mine was the original hot rod action figure. Once my brother came along, all my transformers either disappeared or were destroyed. That specific one, if I still had it in the original box would be worth a couple thousand.

Go to Meijer and you can get the KSC75's for $11 right now.

My favorite fantasy books are the Night Watch subset of Terry Pratchett's discworld. Its funny, the character's are inventive and the stories can be very interesting.

Hagen-Daz had a great cinnamon ice cream a while back, but my favorite current ice cream is really good butter pecan.

I could talk about my dreams here, but that would get me banned.

KSC75's if you don't mind reattaching the driver housing to the earclip all the time, and they're $11 at Meijer right now. Portapro-2's if you need something that'll last forever. They're $30 at circuit city.

Your best options are either a microdac or the optical output of an optoplay or creative mp3+ fed to a CI-Audio VDA-1. If you go with a microdac, I'd still get the optoplay or creative and see whether or not you prefer the optical out to the usb interface. I thought there was a slight...

My brother wants me to go with him to Barnes and Noble on Sunday so we can start forming a line. He's almost 18.
