  1. My cable provider just raised my monthly rate by $40, saying my "promotional rate" has expired. I've been a customer for 29 years -- shouldn't we be well past promotional rates? (I'd say "loyal customer," but they're the only cable and internet provider in my area.) Might be time to cut the cord on the TV and just use their internet.
  2. Makes sense. We were closed for 13 days, which gave you some extra time to get more work done, which let you pay off your car. You're welcome.

  4. I can't even pick out one movie as an example of his greatness, because it would take all night to list them. He commanded the screen like few others. RIP
  5. In this case, there's no threat of this particular problem coming back. A couple of settings are now enabled that will prevent it.
  6. This particular problem will never resurface. The last fix for it was incomplete, but it took this last shutdown to expose that. It does suck that we've been down for almost two weeks -- this was by far our longest outage.
  7. Again, I won't go into detail, but there was a settings conflict between hardware and software that's been present for months, and the last shutdown and repair only fixed part of it. It won't be a problem ever again.
  8. Same, they're quite different stylistically. Andy Summers vs. The Edge might be a better comparison (though U2 didn't release their first album until the early '80s).
  9. Joe Walsh. His phrasing is unique and bendy and fun -- he sounds like Joe Walsh.
  10. Better to have Amazon taking the reins than Disney. Could you imagine? They would: Introduce a non-British and non-toxically masculine Bond character, Remake and re-imagine every MGM-era film, and make Disney-fied film versions of every existing un-adapted Bond novel and fan fiction blog post, Create spinoff trilogies for every Bond Villain (including Darth Vader and Thanos in the inevitable crossover films), Completely do away with Bond Girls, Introduce an adorable CGI "Baby Bond" somewhere in Phase 3, Make Bond drive an all-electric Prius while having the villains drive diesel-guzzling Hummers, accompanied by the usual socially-conscious exposition, Have Bond drink very-lightly shaken kombuchas instead of martinis, And so forth If Amazon stays faithful to the source material like they did with the Jack Reacher series, then I'm sure Bond will be fine.
  11. I chose May, but George wrote some of my favorite Beatles songs.
  12. I'm liking the extended outro here.
  13. I can't imagine her giving up the drums, she's too good at it and she definitely enjoys hitting things with sticks.
  14. This was my question when he first approached me with this about a month ago. I pointed out that we were not affiliated with the band in any official capacity and that we were just a fan site, and that without posting samples we'd be of little help. However, reading these replies, we're kinda being helpful, but maybe not in the way the OP had hoped.
  15. What other info can you give? What kind of tapes are we talking about? Audio cassettes? Studio 1" or 2" tape? Videotapes? You say "authentic Rush demos." Demos of what? What tours do the concert footage come from? Is it pro shot or audience footage? How did you come to possess this material? Folks, any other questions you'd like to ask?
  16. No special steps needed. When you log in, just enter your email address instead of your user name.
  17. To the commentariat here, let me ask you guys this. Is it possible for any of us to give an honest and fairly accurate estimate on what these tapes are worth without seeing the footage? I'm thinking showing even samples of it might lower its value. Opinions? To PowerWashWindows, you PMed me about this a little while back and I never got back to you about posting it, apologies. I was going to give you the go-ahead anyway.
  18. Any of the Motown stuff, especially the songs with James Jamerson on bass. And there are tons of one- or two-hit wonders from the '70s that have aged well.
  19. Yes, when we were fixing the email problem we sent test emails to ourselves, and they both went into our spam folders. WE ARE NOT SPAM!!!
  20. "Oh sorry sir, this is abuse! Arguments are down the hall."
  21. About time you showed up! We were in limbo, not sure if we were out of the woods yet. Looks like we're good now!
  22. Musically, I'd say their closest parallel is Muse. I didn't follow Muse much when they first started out. How long did it take them to start headlining arenas? TW have been around for 10 years but they started when they were literally kids. They were very underground until KMF, and while that album has increased their exposure, they're still not at Muse's level of draw. Yeah, they probably should be, but they're still in their early 20s so it could still happen.
