Welp, thanks to the current state of the economy and current state of satellite radio, I am out of work effective January 31st. I was informed of this upon my return to DC after a week in Florida with family and friends. Merry Effin' Christmas and a Happy Flippin' New Year. Tomorrow, I will...

I live in a 2br/2bath house about a mile from The White House. Current projections put 4 million people on the National mall for Obama's inauguration. I'm seeing ads on DC craigslist for people renting their houses for $5k that week. Hotels in the area are completely sold out. What's a...

Since I imagine the vast majority of our posting comes from misuse of company resources, let's have a look at where everyone works! This is my desk: This is the Broadcast Technologies Shop where my desk is: The atmosphere is that of a high school locker room. No girls allowed. And...

I found out an hour ago that I'm headed to Stanford University for two weeks. I fly out of DC tomorrow at 5pm. Anyone familiar with the area? I've been to San Francisco a billion times, but I won't have much time to spend there. I only have two nights off a week, plus weekends. Any tips...

Come on, I know you're out there. I listened to The Plain White T's on my way to work yesterday. It was infectious. I felt like I was 16 and on my way to the beach. I was a little giddy walking into the office. Some others that came to mind are: Anything on Vagrant Records Say Anything...

My girlfriend will be in Tokyo, Nagoya, and Sapporo for two weeks on business. My birthday is a month away. I feel obligated to exploit her trip for my own personal gain What should I ask for?

My very first turntable! I've amassed a very nice little collection of LP's and 7" over the last few months to get myself psyched on Vinyl. I know, I'm doing everything backwards. This is an SL-1200-M3D which I think came out in 1997. It came with a Shure M44-7 cartridge. From what I've read...
