The flow between dining and living area seems to be slightly negatively impacted. Wink

But, glad to see you have your priorities straight. Laughing

Oakland, CA? If so, update your location and I guess that sort of explains your fawning over northern California.

To be fair, I'd much rather live in the SFO area than Seattle! Wink

There's an alternate path through a bedroom. Wink

I lived in the Bay Area for 3 years 10 years ago, so I know the area pretty well already.

After living in Seattle for 3+ years, and it's a great town, for sure, I definitely prefer the Bay Area.

I was born and raised in the Bay Area, and while I enjoyed growing up there, I have no desire to ever move back. I think the only way we would leave Colorado at this point is if both of our girls ended up moving away.

Is this speaker system the correct match for your projector?

Anyway, great to see you're on the right track. Noticed the discussion your about avatar on some other board too.

Cheers

My wife loves the big screen and was thrilled with the "temp" setup, which I whipped up in an hour on a Friday night. She routinely reminds me that the only reason she married me is because I have a huge... projector.

Of course you are there when I'm in Seattle for work.

As humble as they are, those tiny speakers do okay given their limitations and their two channel playback and extreme bandwidth limitations.

Given all the variations of the Joe Smith "first visitation story," my avatar should both be funny, offensive and sublime given the informational savvy of the viewer. I think the next version will be a white salamander with three RGB eyes shining down on Joseph.

White Salamander and Joseph Smith. Look it up. Maybe in conjunction with the name Mark Hofmann.
