Another "Happy New Year" from Iowa! The last thing that went through my speakers in 2006 was some alternative rock music from a group most people probably haven't heard of here. I was banging on my new Roland TD-6SXT drum set (through my new amp) until about 11:45 while my family/in-laws were here playing foosball, pinball, and my M.A.M.E. arcade. Then we watched the ball drop (recorded on DVR of course), and kept going until about 3AM. Nothing too exciting, but we will be watching something today in the home theater, so I'll report back (with less boring detail) later.
Farewell - June 4, 2020

Happy New Year to everyone.
I worked yesterday so I could watch new DVDs today!

Wow Jack, great idea. I guess a possible new years resolution will be to learn karate- and ring in the new year "proper".

Stevie, my 3 year-old son, and I were home alone yesterday. We had a guys night and rented a few movies. We watched Cars together before his bedtime. Then when he was sound asleep, I watched Pirates of the Caribbean, Dead Man's Chest, which spilled over into the new year. It really gave the new EP500 a workout. Today, I'm listening to my "4 stars or better" playlist on my iPod connected to the stereo while I clean the house in preparation for my wife and daughter returning from California. Music just sounds so much better when it's loud.

I spent my evening trying to overclock my PC. It apparently failed around 2 AM, so it's back to the drawing board. We have quiet New Years out here. I mean, other than all the illegal fireworks going off outside...
I am the Doctor, and THIS... is my SPOON!

Sounds like you had a great evening Peter, and I'm sure Stevie did as well. Ken, were those fireworks you were hearing- or your processor popping and frying?

"Ne Me Quitte Pas" by Regina Spektor! That's the first song I played on my Axioms, anyway. When I took my shower this morning, I threw in one of my mixed CDs and put it on random. The first song was "Whispers in Blindness" by Ace of Base. I admit it. I still listen to them once in a while.

First thing on the axioms in the garage this year was Joyce Cooling- East side, had the ipod on shuffle- jazz. First thing on the HT was Charmed- the legend of sleepy halliwell. Sighned up for pandora today- what a beautiful thing. I'm already thinking about some m3's for the pc and maybe a squeezbox.
