| Top 5 Hamburgers Me too on the Lebanese food! There used to be a place on Westwood that had great chow. I was just commenting on how far away from burgers we'd gotten. Don't fret; I'm a big high-jacker myself.Remember Josephine's on Santa Monica? I'm still in mour... | |
| Top 5 Hamburgers At "Ptomaine Tommy's", if you order "extra chili", you end up with this mess that ten of those paper towels they call napkins won't make a dent in (BTW, they have those paper towel dispensers EVERYWHERE ...At least fifteen of them; but you go into... | |
| Top 5 Hamburgers Come on, I'd crush burgers at In N'Out before I'd destroy burgers at Carl's Jr any day, and I love Carl's Jr. Yes, there's a doctor's office clinicality to the interior; but I don't see a lot of bicycles out back, so I think we're safe from the Mo... | |
| Top 5 Hamburgers A couple of others I remember from growing up in L.A.Fat Jack'sThe Great GrillThey may still be around in name; but are shells of their former selves.BTW, The Original Tommy's was so popular in the Seventies that it spawned a bunch of ripoffs (Tom... | |
| Top 5 Hamburgers Here's a heads-up for you guys, for when you make burgers and steaks at home. Peter Luger's steak sauce is available online. This stuff makes all other steak sauces second fiddle, even pretty good ones like Virginia Gentleman. Everyone who's tried... | |
| Top 5 Hamburgers MacDad, I'm guessing that Pappas Burger is related to Pappadeaux's? We have a Pappadeaux's (pronounced "Pappa Does") in Phoenix, and it's an insanely good Cajun Creole food restaurant. When I was in Houston three years ago, I found out that there'... | |
| Top 5 Hamburgers Fatburger and In N Out both have this dynamic where people who've heard about how great they are for years finally break down and go there for the first time, only to come back saying "I don't get the hype". You can't just go in and order a burger... | |
| Top 5 Hamburgers I'm still crying about losing Jays (Santa Monica and Myra) and Meaty Meat Burgers (Pico and LaBrea), and the Fatburger on Western and Adams that burned (baby burn...) in the Rodney King riot.Any of you Angelians remember Ara's Armenian Burgers? Th... | |

| Speakes for SET amp The nice thing about Coincident speakers is that you don't need a powered sub. The bass of my Total Victory IV's is the best I've ever experienced, and I run the 8 watt Coincident Frankensteins!I'm glad I didn't run into you last year. I listed th... | |
| Can anyone make my Modwright XA777ES play SACD? I know that when I owned the Audio Aero Prestige, the manual suggested that I leave it "on", and with the "no disc" message when not in use. When I bought a Steelhead, and no longer needed the pre function of the Prestige, I went to a Cary Pro.Hav... | |
| who has experience with Joseph Audio? Heard the Pearl II's at the Denver show. Awesome. | |
| What's the farthest you've traveled for live music I'm a lightweight myself; but I'll never forget June of '76, and driving from L.A. to San Diego to go to the Kool Jazz Festival. Get a load of this ticket: The Staple Singers; B.B.King; Al Green, and The Temptations headlined! | |
| Indie/alternative artists that keep things simple Get some Alexi Murdoch, or just get the soundtrack to "Away We Go" which has mostly his stuff on it.All of Ray LaMontagne's stuff is good; but I'm especially fond of "Til the Sun Turns Black".Mindy Smith's "Long Island Shores" still floors me.You ... | |
| Two tube amps for your consideration please This can't be real. MacdadTexas has just offended OldTexasDog???You guys just made my day! I only wish we had a thread-of-the-month, or something like that. This would be a definite contender!OTD, the Jolida product is generally an overachiever. |
