I bought the K702 due to its reputation as being light on bass, my Sennheiser HD555s had too much! The initial few months of use...they hardly got used, I could listen maybe for 15 minutes before my ears would hurt. Piercing highs and no bass to speak of!    However, after a year or so of...

  Trying out clarity mode in Camera+ with my Seiko SARB033!

I don't really think what you describe is that uncommon. After all, the concept of hope in the face of adversity is an oft-used theme in all sorts of artistic work.   For me, Armin van Buuren - Burned with Desire has this sort of happy/sad epicness (?) that you are talking about:  

    Here is the Antea KS on a 6.25" wrist. The slim bezel and white dial really make the watch wear larger than it really is, but as you can see it looks fine here! I'm not a fan of the lugs, a bit spartan for my taste, but this watch is up there when it comes to timeless beauty.  ...

Oh yes, House of Cards was utterly brilliant. Go on youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k4aiZnPHGfA&feature=related  and you can see all of Francis Urquhart's most searing lines :D   Quote:  

The narration was waaay over the top, it got annoying after the first 10 seconds! Now they need to make the in-game graphics look like that trailer and it should be quite spectacular.   wind016, Square Enix bought Eidos, the original owner of the TR franchise, so SE is now the title publisher. 

Listened to them about 3 times each, and I picked #2 :D. Listening again, the major difference I can tell, and would appreciate to have, is the 'spacing' around the vocals in #1, they are more clearly defined among the other instruments than in #2! They both sounded just great though, more than...

    The Housemaid...6/10   A korean film that is a remake of the 1960 movie of the same name. A timid housemaid joins the household of a very rich family and promptly has an affair with the man of the house. The lady of the house and her mother quickly find out and plot her exit, all...

Generally I am not a fan of HOT hot sauces...I don't consider heat to be a flavour. I do love sriracha though, mainly because it is delicious (and with a small kick of heat at the end). Scrumptious on toast with cheese!

  Took this shot ages ago but I didn't really pay attention to it...sometimes it helps taking a second look at old shots that might have gotten lost in the set!

  Haven't posted here in ages...so here's a shot from my iphone, my old blackberry could never have captured the sky like this!

Quote:   In the previous thread it was mentioned that Colorware will be willing to do this for individuals as well. I think the price is around $300, pretty normal for Colorware. Very cool but very pricey ;)

I love this movie, utterly brilliant, with an equally brilliant soundtrack (Comtine D'un Autre Ete: L'apres midi  has one of the highest play counts in my itunes!)   Maybe I should get it on Bluray :D   

Uncharted 2. What an amazing game. Polished to perfection, I'm trying to play it as slowly as possible, just to make sure I don't rush through such a rare gem.   Also 'playing' GT5, I've gotten to professional level but I now need to grind in order to get more money to continue, and sorry, I...

Tron Legacy 5/10   This is a movie that looks and sounds brilliant, but has nothing more than that! It's shocking how epic some of those scenes looked, so perfectly envisioned. All for a crap movie.
