Pepperidge Farm bread. That's fancy bread. You can tell it's fancy because it's wrapped twice. You open it, and it still isn't open. That's why I don't buy it. I don't need another step between me and toast.

Evening there "Frank".

Oh Yeeeah.

I've never really heard his stuff but from the bits and pieces i HAVE heard i think the closest to it in terms of style that i personally know of would be some of Mike Patton's crazy stuff.

Im guessing here.

Yeah, some Zappa was definitely an influence on Mr. Bungle, but Zappa did a vast selection of different styles over the years. Classical, jazz, hard rock, technical stuff, instrumentals, silly stuff.

Nope, haven't seen any of it yet. Not quite sure if I'm going to. I have quite a lot of crap on my must watch plate already, and one Walking Dead is plenty. I might check it out eventually though who knows.

Lol. That's what I had for breakfast too.

I just heard the upcoming Zappa blu has been indefinitely canceled.

You watch Z Nation? If not you should. Great show. George R.R. Martin is a fan and will play a zombie signing his new book. Maybe we'll get a crossover event with white walkers. Winter is coming.

Nope. Never heard of it. For the past four months pretty much all I've watched is The X-Files on Netflix. It has remastered picture and 5.1 sound, and it looks and sounds astounding for a streaming service. Counting all 9 seasons plus both movies the total running time is about 155 hours, and I only have about 13 hours left to go.

Unfortunately, last night while watching, my projector let out a huge BOOM! and immediately went completely black. I opened it up and sure enough my bulb exploded. My first bulb just got really dark and pretty much unwatchable, then Epson sent me a free replacement, which is the one that just exploded. My first lamp got right at 2,000 hours, but the second one only got around 1,200 when it blew.

Anyway, I ordered a replacement and it should be here the day after tomorrow, so basically just 2 nights without a projector.

Remember dancing on the pier last night?
Got drunk and fell into the water.
The big policeman wasn't laughing, didn't blink an eye,
He said, "You're messin' with the mayor's daughter."

Wow! You actually blew up a bulb. I haven't had that honor yet. Did the glass stay contained in the housing unit? I have over 3400 hours on this bulb. Suppose it's time to order a new one. Where do you order yours from? Do you go OEM or get a cheaper knock off? It's time to put a few more hours on my bulb and watch the latest Z Nation. Salud.

The glass stayed 99% inside the lamp housing, but I vacuumed out the little pieces then used a q-tip and some alcohol to clean in there real good, then wiped it all down with a damp cloth.

My first bulb came brand new with the pj, the 2nd was sent to me for free directly from Epson, but this time I ordered from Pureland Supply. They use the original bulbs from Osram, Phillips, etc., the exact same companies and models that the pj manufacturers use, but they put them in their own housings. I got mine for $154 which is half what Epson charges.

Out of 294 reviews on Projector Central they have a 4.76 out of 5 rating and I know that crazyBLUE (Brent), bhampton, and a couple other people on here have been very happy with them.

My lamp is out for delivery right now, unfortunately I have to go to work, but hopefully it will be waiting on me when I get home.

frogmort · 09-19-2015, 09:27 PM

Just now got home and my bulb was waiting for me on the porch.
