    Anyone have a Dyson Vacuum Cleaner?

    I bought a Dyson (the yellow one) a few weeks ago, and feel the need to jump in and point out that the Dyson system for emptying the canister results in little to no dust escaping. You can pull the trash bag up around the canister, and a small trigger at the top opens a trap door at the bottom...

    Any reviews of the Flaming Lips DVD Audio?

    Got it. Listened to it last night. Wow. Definatly the most creative surround mix i've heard yet. The booklet even points out interesting tidbits about each songs surround mix. It's also loaded with bonus videos and songs. Highly recommended to fans of the band, or fans of surround music.

    Lion King 1.5 DTS 2/10/04

    This looks like it could be really good. If you figure that Lion King is based (loosely) on Hamlet, this sounds like disney's answer to "Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are dead" I'm looking forward to it.

    Any reviews of the Flaming Lips DVD Audio?

    According to most sources, it's been pushed back to Sept 23. However, from what i've heard it's a very very agressive surround mix.

    Can you help me name this song?

    Baker Street by Gerry Rafferty? First thing that popped into my head from your description. The Foo Fighters did a great cover of it a few years back.

    Flaming Lips LIVE

    They're great live. And not only do they put on a good show musically, but also an amazing performace visually. They're very fun. I wont spoil any of it for you, but they put on a very creative and high energy stage show. If you like their albums, particularly Yoshimi and Soft Bulletin, I cant...

    R.e.m. Aftp Dvd-a

    Picked up yesterday at BBuy. Gave it a quick listen last night. I was suprised looking at the case that the Hi-Rez tracks were only 48/22, but i guess that's due to the source recordings (dat?). Anyway, I thought it was great. Some nice surround effects, fairly active rear channels. There were a...

    New Phish Album

    You can also download a really good quality MP3 of Pebbles and Marbles off Trey Anastasio's solo band website in the Audio/Video section. I'm looking forward to hearing Phish play it.. It's much more a Phish sounding song than a Trey Band song.

    What are some careers that let me carry a breifcase and wear a suit and tie?

    I've seen several articles lately about the return to business formal from business casual, and how productivity is better with suits, and how casual work wear can only hurt your company. The funny thing about all of them is they ALL are based on studies done by the Mens Business Apparel...

    What to do in St. Louis?

    For German cuisine, the two main holdouts that are still around (we used to have LOTS of german eateries in south city) are Schneithorst's or the Bevo Mill. The Bevo Mill is in South City and is inside a giant windmill. good food, great atmosphere, but you'll want to call first to confirm hours...

    What to do in St. Louis?

    I'd definately recommend the Botanical Garden (i live just a block away.) We also have a fairly top notch zoo(free) which just opened their new "Rivers Edge" exhibit, with the elephants, hippos, Tigers, etc.. in fairly natural habitats. A good art museuem(free) science center(free) history...

    The good old "Tape Recorder"

    And if you want to find one locally, i'd recommend hitting an office supply store (i.e. OfficeMax or Office Depot) as they tend to carry these, with built in mic's and sometimes built in speakers in a unit the size of a walkman.

    World Trade Center...reborn? VERY cool design proposal

    The music was creepy, but even creepier when i remembered that the name of that song is "Falling". Poor choice.

    very old school rap?

    While it actually fairly new, you may also like Jurassic 5, they have a very old school sound. 4 mc's and 2 dj's. I just got their album "Quality Control" a couple days ago and love it. It's great, refreshing, back to the roots style rap.

    Sleep Apnea - Going for a Sleep Study

    So i just got home from my sleep testing. Howard, sounds like what you've got is a preliminary sort of testing device. Last night at 9pm i showed up, was given a room, sort of a mix between a hotel room and a hospital room, and paperwork. Once that was done, the applying of sensors...

    Sleep Apnea - Going for a Sleep Study

    Oddly enough, i'm going in for sleep testing tonight. I had been dreading the idea of having to use a CPAP, but your experiences help lessen my dread. My doctor mentioned that i looked like a good candidate for surgery, but would probably wind up on a CPAP in the meantime. Crossing my...

    Just bought Memento...WHOAH!

    TheoGB, Some people just don't like injecting themselves. My wife was recently diagnosed with MS, and gets an injection every 2 days. While her doctor wants her to eventually give herself the shots, she dislikes needles too much, and i give her the shots. So, while it's a 'niggle', it is...

    black and white s-video?

    I also had this happen on my system if i had a rca connection attached to the same input as my s-video connection. It only allowed use of one or the other, and if you hooked up both, or even had a cable attached to the rca plug, it would only give black and white images. just another possibility.
