Hi all, I have most of my shopping done but have to pick up a few more things this weekend, and of course have to buy something the day of Christmas eve. We have some family coming over in the morning. Kids getting dropped off and picked up all day long, and then to the inlaws for dinner Christmas night. Not really over complicated but enough so that when the day is over it will be nice to sit and relax. Everyone have a safe and happy holiday. Bill

I'm in the same boat as you - I have most everything done (finally) but still a couple of last minute things. Seems like the season came up on us faster this year. I've got a Paramour kit in the box, haven't even opened it yet. And I've got some work to do on the active crossover models and some LSPCad stuff so I can finish out the response charts in the position/offset document. And Parham Data just took on a huge project, so that's now on the table too. But you know what? I couldn't care less - It's Christmas! Happy Holidays to all! Whether it's Hanukah, Christmas, Pongul or just New Years - best to all!

Hi gang! Yesterday was very hectic day, the cable tv installer came yesterday at 9 am to put my cable in(part of the roadrunner install), then had to wait for the roadrunner installer to arrive. He finally came at 4pm and thought he blew out the modem because of faulty office info on my account. My girlfriend has stomach flu or virus, not sure which. So this morning, I had problem with computer waking up from energy standdown, I powered down and back up, and guess what, my internet is working. Now waiting for the roadrunner to come and finish my e-mail account. I wish I knew the internet was okay when he left last night. So I now have internet at home and plan to be able to participate fully here, and keep my job, since I won't have to sneak at work anymore. Happy Holidays everyone, Won't be able to post much until after the holidays though. Ron (Central Ohio Audio Club)

Here it is 8:45am Christmas Eve. I have one more present to buy, and so what am I doing. I'm reading the Pi forum, of course. Wishing all you Pi-builders a Happy and Hopeful Holiday Season.
Keep your ears and your mind open.

I'm right there with you, Dave! Just sent the wife and kids out to do the last minute shopping and I'm supposed to be going to the grocery for last minute food stuffs but first...!!!!...got to check out the various asylum forums! Anyway, Merry Christmas to you and all the Pi folks out there, especially to Wayne, whose inspired work and unselfish attitude brings his designs to the public, and in such a way that there is this rare opportunity for anyone to have excellent high efficiency loudspeakers for very little money. Truly the other side of the coin of American free enterprise and one that more of us should aspire to. Thanks, Wayne, and best holiday wishes to all! Garland
