    Canker sores (aka mouth ulcers)

    I used to get them frequently. They only pop up now when I'm extremely stressed, not hydrating and eating lots of fried food (fast food, chips), or not sleeping enough for a couple days. But now that I'm going to the gym regularly, eating extremely well and trying to sleep as much as possible...

    Official Team BEER-FI (Beer Appreciation Thread!)

    Ah why did I stumble into this thread... I've been saving money by keeping beers out of my fridge but now I'm really tempted to stock up on anything Stone brewed.

    I don't think the new maudlin of the Well, which was released free online, got the loving it deserved.

    What camera do you use?

    I have a Canon S90. Perfect for my uses! A bit pricey but it's one of the few compacts with full manual controls.

    Amps are too loud.

    There are a few amps out there with unity gain, or rather can be ordered with unity gain. I got my Glite from Justin with a gain of 2 and thinking back, I should have asked for unity.

    The difference between RA1 and RA1-HG

    From my experience the regular RA-1 already has a gain that is too high for me. The HG version with Grados would be unlistenably loud.

    Do you like spam?

    Spam fried rice, spam and eggs with ramen, all good! (Ketchup in spam fried rice? That sounds... not so appetizing to me.)

    I'm extremely thin. Is it at all possible to put on maybe 10 pounds through body weight exercises? I've been doing push ups, pull/chin ups, crunches, and I have access to a leg press and simple pulley weight machine which I use for a standing fly. I lifted a lot a couple years back and only put...

    Goo Goo Fans, is it just me or is Let Love in EXTREMELY Brickwalled?

    I'll have to spin the disc again but I remember the snares in particular sounding off. For similar kind of rock, I think Modest Mouse - The Moon and Antarctica sounds much better.

    Goo Goo Fans, is it just me or is Let Love in EXTREMELY Brickwalled?

    The only Goo Goo Doll album I have is Dizzy Up The Girl and I was disappointed with its overall sound quality. I might have to look into getting Superstar Car Wash.
