I got a pair of $25 (on sale) bookshelf speakers, replaced the cheap blocking caps with some audio grade poly stuff and totally smoothed out the slightly harsh tweeters. They sound great, they were good before but listening to them you'd NEVER think they cost $25. They almost sound as good as my M-Audio monitors but lack the....smoothness, but for 1/4 the cost they're a damn steal!
http://www.parts-express.com/dayton-audio-...r-pair--300-652 http://www.parts-express.com/dayton-audio-...acitor--027-424 $30 for a pair that perform like $80 speakers. Literally takes 5 minutes and a soldering iron, any idiot can do it. They're off sale now, but still a good deal. I'm pushing with 65WRMS from a Pioneer receiver, they're taking it with not a problem for hours on end. As for the geeky side of things, I'm streaming free Pandora without any ads on Pithos from the old laptop. It's pretty sweet, use the ppa current version not the one in the main repo's since it's outdated and doesn't work. -------------------- |

Got something cooler than fish or turtles
Solenopsis invicta, also known as the Red Imported Fire Ant Caught two queens, going to raise some colonies. Supposedly I will have up to a couple hundred thousand ants within 6 months to a year. |

Ours swarm onto people and bite you millions of times and if untreated can kill you -------------------- ------------------------------| White '94 Celica | Bought 11/05/12 | Sold 12/05/15 |------------------------------ |

Some people die from fire ant bites, they swarm like crazy. I think the Jackjumper ants in Australia are supposed to be the deadliest in the world. They jump, are super aggressive(like chase you), have one of the most powerful stings, and many are allergic.
But RIFA's are a huge problem here. They are from the Amazon, and are quickly taking over North America |

hahahahaa this is hilarious, reminds me when I dug up a Bull Ant Nest in my back yard once, a good 10x10m area of ground was just covered in the ants... We gave up digging and retreated inside lol -------------------- ------------------------------| White '94 Celica | Bought 11/05/12 | Sold 12/05/15 |------------------------------ |
