    Best Car Headphone amp(for HD600's)

    Possible to get Bach's first cello suite ONLY? (Rostropovich's version)

    Stupid stuff you did as a kid

    2 years ago or so I visited my cousin with whom I stayed for a few days... One day my cousin was away for a few hours, and my aunt and I were alone... I was lying outside in hammock when my asked me if I wanted to go shopping with her as she had to buy some dinner. I declined and stayed in the...
