Often I'd take them to the gym with me on my mp3 player. There's something that just feels a little wrong about listening to Mistress Matisse talking about nun and priest fetishes while I'm on the treadmill watching a bunch of little kids running around playing soccer downstairs. So for that, I thank you. Thanks to you I have successfully listened to every episode of the Savage Lovecast. Often I’d take them to the gym with me on my mp3 player.

]]> Comment on Electronic Organs: the old school analog synths by Daniel http://blog.gwax.com/2009/05/30/electronic-organs-the-old-school-analog-synths/comment-page-1/#comment-17614 Daniel Tue, 02 Feb 2010 21:08:08 +0000 http://blog.gwax.com/?p=754#comment-17614 I do not think you are a mad man at all. The Conn 580 is a great instrument. I had a Conn 718 (?) Rapsody organ. It is more of the classical church type of organ. I wished that it had an AGO full pedal board. I now have installed in the lower level of my home a real Wicks 5 rank pipe organ. However, I do miss the old Conn. It was a fun instrument. I kind of envy your Theater 580! Enjoy it! U-tube has a few videos of people playing them. Really a nice sound and fun to watch and listen to them play! So, one day... let me know when you will be on U-tube!

I just had a stuck red pixel on a recently replaced Thinkpad T400 screen, and was thinking it was permanent. I tweaked the URL to 1400 by 900, and ran it for a bit, and poof, pixel unstuck!

Oh well, I guess that I'll have to try harder in the future. In retrospect it’s a horrible shame that I did not figure out a way to work the phrase “Avatar Shmavater” into this post.
