The fact that anyone can plan that far ahead frightens me. But then again, I guess I plan on being in Japan, but that's different. Even if the meet were there, I would not be able to say, ok, "let's pencil you in for August 2nd at 3:30, 4 won't work because I am washing my socks, and from 2-3 I am cutting my toenails..." What if there is something cool that weekend that I don't know about until, god forbid, July? ok, rant over. going back to ebay.

I jumped on the august 2 bandwagon because I have no clue on which day I will or will not be free.

Hopefully I'll build my meta by then.... anybody want to donate a soldering station?

 

[NuclearFusi0n]

I think waiting on this until at least july is a good idea...

 

[Schrieks]

Wow.. that is quite a long way off. Well, I can't even choose yet, but if it ends up being on 2 Aug, I propose everyone give me a piece of their gear for my birthday! Wow, it'd be memorable!:

 

[Orpheus]

i'll give you a CD for your bday!

 

[Orpheus]

hey.... anyone up for some blind testing at the next meet? cables, amps, etc.... i can setup my patchbay for this purpose................

if anyone is courageous enough.

(taking bets now.... heh he)

 

[AIM9x]

blind testing = really bad.... I can smell a teabagging from 5 months away.

 

[stuartr]

ummm, teabagging must mean something else on this coast, because where I am from teabagging involves having your girlfriend polish your family jewels...

 

[AIM9x]

Teabagging is when you drop your marbles in somebody's piehole. And I think you can remember how people's jaws dropped with the Conrad Johnson+ AKG1000s..... they're asking for a teabagging!!!

 

[stuartr]

Ok, I just wanted to be sure we were on the same Paige (!), err page. For the record, I prefer Irish Breakfast or Jasmine when teabagging, depending on whether I prefer a taste of the home country or something more exotic. I tend to avoid Earl Gray...too many whiskers(!!!). ah, the art of the double entendre, how sickeningly witty my little banalities are.

 

[Orpheus]

okay... i'm slow here.... can you explain "blind testing = really bad.... I can smell a teabagging from 5 months away." in detail?

 

[AIM9x]

When you're older, Dean. When you're older.

 

[Orpheus]

heh he.... i'm in the same age group as you man!--- come on,.... what you mean by that comment? i mean, if one says he can hear a difference between cables or amps, i'd like to test that. and i think i can make a pretty fair scientific environment in my house with my equipment. yes, it won't be 100% scientific... there are too many vairables to involve.... but i think the results would be clear one way or the other.

 

[NewSc2]

I'm voting for much much earlier than August - that's a LOOONG ways off. Anytime closer, like June/July perhaps?
