Audio Equipment... the word Cool... and Life

Really? You think they were never caught in an uncompromising position? We're all cool, sometimes. I was in a casino with my son once. He was at the poker table, I was surfing; being about the second time I ever visited one. I came across a table dedicated to an oriental dice game called Sic Bo. A half hour later I was tapping on his shoulder. I told him 'I just won $1800.00'. He looked up at me over his shoulder and said, 'cool'. He would know, being a very good poker player. I then said 'let's get the hell out of here'.

Zoot, btw, which monikers would you classify as cool here on the Gon?

I wasn't insinuating, it was a real question.(I suppose a revealing one at that)...don't worry, we can't see you. My pics are...I'll look em up and get back to you.

Okay I'm back....EBM, Wolf_Garcia, Swampwalker, Mapman(I wonder if Geoff ever got back to him about what it is he knows that he should forget), Douglas schroeder, Learsfool, Rok2id, Elizabeth...I have to stop for fear I will insult the few not on the list.

BTW Ngjockey, they look cool but actually cylinders exhibit the poorest response characteristics of all the basic shapes..., apparently.

You're wrong. You think someone can keep up a facade long term without slipping up? No one's that smart when that is their intention. Imo, most folks here are displaying their true character as observed over time.
And for that matter, probably truer than they display face to face on a daily basis. A lot less inhibitions here.

Excellent.

Oh, you're on the list.

Don't worry about it. Just be cool.

Sure, eventually we're going to be "cold"

Do you mean if you "are" cool, or to "become" such? It just occurred to me while writing this post(like right now) that getting my system sounding like real life has been my yardstick for the last 30+ years. Oh yeah, I got it goin on! No clue if I need sympathy or not... (I can take it):)

I guess with me it's the self recognition that "I'm there";ie: validation? Looks like I really don't care what other people think. Now that can't not be cool, can it? My wife doesn't think it is. Elizabeth, Elizabeth!
