Sweet!

Damn, that hurts just to hear about. I HATE ladder falls. Take care of yourself AlpineK. Here's wishing you a speedy recovery!

I still like having a hard copy. I'll rip CDs w/ EAC at 320 mbps and stash the mp3s on a remote drive just so tunes are easy to find. Still, if I really want to listen closely (which is actually not very often) I'll break down and dig out the CD or LP. Somewhere over 256 mbps I can't tell the difference between rips, but A/B switching between CDs and rips it's pretty easy to hear how much better CDA is. Most of my listening is either at work, in the car or on the iPod where having "real" quality rips seems less important. At least to me.
So compared to CDA, do FLAC and OGG files pass the A/B test? Is there NO difference? And what's the size hit?

Isn't that Carmen Brady???

Right. Peyroux is more like a Leanne Rimes or Joss Stone, in that they're all "channeling" other singers. McKay, otoh, can write songs! The other thing about her that reminds me of Newman is that, imo, most of her material sounds better live than on the record.
-
McKay could be her generation's Randy Newman. Only maybe a bit more funny and way better looking.

But enough abt mine, what's on your iPod?

Jesus. I take the time to read that well written article concerning something that all mountaineers and backcountry skiers should find relevant and interesting, only to read "Well NO SHIT"? I seriously don't get it. You must be so god damn smart that such trivial matters are like spreading jam on your fuckin toast. Bravo genius. How bout if you don't have anything smart to say, just read it and move on.
Bravo genius. How 'bout you follow your own advice?

Grant Street by Sonny Landreth will blow your hair back. The Damnwell's - Bastards of the Beat came out last summer and it's really not very good but for some reason I can't stop listening to it!
Seems like I've never not listened to "Trace." If I were to get more Son Volt which one would it be?

Saturday I played my new guitar 'til my hands gave out on me. And Sunday I had my best bc day yet this year skiing power-steering snow in Newton Canyon.

I have this problem, er I mean I have a friend that has
a problem. He keeps ripping his scholler pants with his
crampons. Any advice for patching scholler?
Tape slices together from the outside and then paint a thin coat of Seamgrip on the inside. Leave it dry overnight and pull the tape in the morning. Big cuts can get two coats, but I've yet to have a repair blow open.

iPod sez:
Buddy Miller, Kim Ritchey and Patty Loveless.
I know Hank and Jimmy Rogers and etc. are supposed to be the classics, but I can't stand actually listening to 'em.

I'd stop by Bennet Pass first (across Hwy 35 from Meadows) just to see if there was enough coverage. The road out is a nice family-friendly out and back. If Bennet's too thin try driving up the Cooper Spur Road, stopping somewhere before you get stuck. Skiing the C.S. road up to Cloud Cap is an awesome family outting. If the gate's closed (any day now?)it'll be a long walk to snow tho'.
So maybe drive out the Gorge and up the HR valley, checking Cooper first. Then try Bennet. If that doesn't go T-line is your best last option.
