    Schiit Happened: The Story of the World's Most Improbable Start-Up

    I've always wanted to ride in a B17 as that is the plane my grandfather piloted for 32 missions over Germany and France. He survived all of that, came back home to Portland, opened up an ice cream shop, raised a passel of kids, and kicked people's asses playing poker, even up into his 80s...

    I was actually at the distillery when he flew over, so, very close to downtown.

    I don't think you're alone in that. There are any number of 'Focus' and 'Productivity' and 'Study' playlists centered around chill electronica. ⌨️ 🧠 🎶

    Uncommonly fun LP and one I picked up for $9-and-change from the Acoustic Sounds website last year. Love it when they have stock overages!

    It's alright! Oregon is blessed with two awesome aviation museums. I have yet to make it up to Evergreen. And in hindsight, it very well could have been your friend's Mustang. This one had black stripes on its wings and looking at Erickson's, it doesn't have the stripes. Kudos to whoever it was...

    I gotta find me a group like that. For that matter, I need a good whiskey group, too. Since my wife dislikes alcohol of all kinds (not a teetotaler, just dislikes the taste and experience) I've got no-one to share bottles with.

    A benefit of having a world class heritage aircraft museum a couple of towns away is getting buzzed loudly by a P51 Mustang for Memorial Day. Nice! Erickson Aircraft Collection

    I've got to find someone relatively local to me who has Final D8000 Pros to listen to. Those cans have captured my imagination like few others based on how much I love my E5000 iems. Various newer ZMF models would be fun to try, too.

    Shostakovich in Jarrett's hands is good schiit indeed.

    That's not how it appeared to me at all. But each of us perceives things differently for sure. For what it's worth, it makes no difference to me if Darko is liked by people or not - it's his channel, his content, his source of income, etc... But I view John as an individual who holds himself...

    Sorry, I had read ACP's response earlier on and then promptly neglected it when making my statement last night. Blaming that on, well, it was late and I was tired. My bad.

    Weirdly for this group (as people here are overwhelmingly helpful and courteous), all of the negative responses I've read so far regarding room treatments have seemed more 'anti-Darko' than being valid arguments offering substantive reasons - with experiential data - for disagreeing with him...

    I'd happily rock a Dia De Los Muertos tree all year long!
