Each time I attend <I>Stereophile</I>'s annual Home Entertainment Show, I look forward to two things. The first is the opportunity to <A HREF="http://blog.stereophile.com/he2006/060406reina/">perform</A&gt; classic and original jazz music with <A HREF="http://blog.stereophile.com/he2006/060406rayjazzed/">John Atkinson</A> and <A HREF="http://blog.stereophile.com/he2006/060406perkins/">Immedia's Allen Perkins</A>. The second is to seek out the most exciting new, affordable speakers to review over the following year. Both buttons were pressed for me quite admirably during HE2005 at the New York Hilton, but this time it was not an affordable speaker that most impressed me.

Jeff's last link of the day&mdash;he can take the afternoon off.

Jeff Wong's unintentional guest-blogging continues with this <I>lurvely</I> little paean to the cassette.

Heck, I find something that works, I stick with it.

Again from Jeff Wong&mdash;he's such a nice boy, I may take the day off and let him guest blog. This video clip shows the girl giant waking up, taking a shower from the sultan's elephant, and wandering off in St. James Park to play. It's from a site specific art work by Royal de Luxe (story <A HREF="http://www.thesultanselephant.com/">here</A&gt;) and I think it's magical. The girl giant's face is wonderfully expressive.
