Not really. My wood floors are pretty hot, too.

The lovely and talented Aperion Audio Intimus 532 loudspeakers, dressed in a cherry so fine my wood floors are jealous.
Michael Fremer wants the world to know that vinyl is back.
"Better than sex" is how one owner described his Caliburn.
Hmm, I wonder who that was.
Alan In Victoria commented on a URL I posted about the Primedia Enthusiast sale: "I know Primedia through their two excellent car mags, Automobile and Motor Trend. Both have been recently spiffed up, especially the dramatically revitalised Motor Trend. I hope they are now in good hands..."
What the fudge?, as Stephen Mejias says. Not Stereophile? I'm shocked, shocked.
But when I went to Automobile and compulsively read the entries in "Great Drives," I discovered Erik B. Johnson's description of the six-barrel 1969.5 Plymouth Road Runner 440, a car I drove a lot between '69 and '76…
I'm not alone. As Blog of a Bookslut's Jessa Crispen says, "Another book they'll have to put me in a Clockwork Orange chair to get me to read: Falling Man by Don DeLillo. Thank you, Guardian, for justifying my judgmental reaction."

Mikey and Marshall, the Real HT Info host, try to figure out why hi-fi continues to live on the fringe of consumer consciousness, while even your 80-year old grandma's got a hi-def plasma screen hanging on her bedroom wall…
Anthropologist Roy Richard Grinker argues that the autism "epidemic"of autism is actually the result of doctors broadening the diagnosis to include more people—and society becoming more willing to see autism and other mental disorders.
To confirm his theory, he did research in India, South Africa, and South Korea to discover how the autistic are treated in other cultures.
One day in 1978, I discovered an LP by a woman I'd never heard in the returns bin of the record store I worked in. In theory, my job was to pack those unsold records in boxes and send them to our one-stop for credit, but frequently I ended up buying those unloved discs.
That's what happened with Art of the Theremin by Clara Rockmore. I noticed that Bob Moog had written the liner notes, which seemed pretty cool, but then I heard the lushly romantic sound of Ms. Rockmore's playing. Who knew there was such a thing as old-fashioned electronic music? I fell in love.
