Just got me one of them too. In black to go with the PS3.

Did David Anderson [/Venari] buy that just for The Nono?
 
Just dropped a couple bills on a new set of eyeglasses, something I don't mind spending more than enough on or spending a couple weeks finding the perfect pair.

The company is a German design firm that has won several industrial design awards for their ingenious screwless hinge design (see end video). They're also made of thin titanium, making them hella strong and light as feathers. I don't like predicting The Next Big Thing (I called BS on Alexander Daigle back in the day if that means anything to anyone), but ic! berlin is expected to take off in similar ways to Oakley, which is now a household brand and coincidentally the brand of my outgoing frames which I still regularly get complimented on.

Here's the set I got:

The design and engineering stuff:



oh yes dude these are simply fantastic specs 👍

Yeah mine are no problem a couple weeks into ownership. The lenses were wrong (not the frame's fault) but they're awesome. Getting compliments all of the time 👍

Soon to buy some AKG 240s.
As much as I hate work, it has it's benefits. Consumerism is fun.

That mamiya is phat man. We still have two bronica etrsi's and i havent even learned how to use them properly. One of them is broken, but the others in mint condition.

I've been running on old Mizuno's for decades now, running the first times with my new Asics Gel-1130's yesterday felt like I was running on pillows :drool:👍


Also some clothes, new shorts, T-shirts and whatnot, and new sunglasses 👍
 
Great purchase, I've always loved Asics Gel.
I started using them almost 10 years ago, and even then (they're surely even better now) it felt like wherever I stepped on, it was smooth as whipcream. :D:tup:

That fact alone allowed me to increase my stamina in about 20%, as I had some problems on my lower back that really hurt when pressed while running, but with these that pressure was much less, and so was pain, which allowed me to keep on running longer.
 
Well I have a back to worry about as well, regardlessly the quality of my shoes. Throughout my family, there was a tendense for us to have un-equal hip height, my dad had to send all of his shoes to a specialist to heighten the left shoe so that his hips are at equal height when running... Sometimes I've got a terrible burning feeling in my back, no matter the position or the action I take... I just hope it doesn't get worse, I'm only 18! :scared:
 
Heather just bought me this a couple days ago. The best Rambo movie ever made. Other recent purchases would be about $100 worth of flowers and $150 worth of rocks for our yard. We also bought 2 copies of GTA4. Not sure if I posted about that already.

Ugly? I got one and I think its a sharp looking case.

lian li's to me are clean, great looking cases. with the cm690 the bottom feet, and ports on topare too flared for my taste. led doesn't help either. it does a damn good job of keeping things cool though.

Awesome. I already had the charger (you need a Rayovac one for the super speed) so it's worth it for me. Unfortunately, they discontinued the "15 minute" feature so I'd better stock up! Charges one battery in 15 minutes, 4 batteries in about 30 minutes.
