have got to get control of your government.

http://www.kcbs.com/SF-Considers-a-T...ffeine/1348719

That's already taxed here. We still have people shaped like the back
of
a
bus.

You do know that we've seen pictures of you. :)

Am I your current fantasy, captain?

Not at all.

Just saying. :)

OK, but I'm now eliminating the momentary glitch by walking 90 minutes a
day
with 50 pounds on my back, along with leg & arm weights. If you need a
late
night fantasy, focus on JohnH.:

Oh - a tad touchy there Dougie.

Tsk - no reason to get snippy just because they could put advertising
on your sides and a destination sign on your forehead.

So to speak. :)


Actually, I've been 170 +/- 2 lbs since college. I hit 188 this past summer.
That's in the process of being fixed. There is no way I will go up an inch
in waste size. Can't happen. Not permissible.

I think it is impossible to get them under control. They have raised
spending 40% in the last 4 years, and we tossed the last Governor cause he
allowed spending to increase 39% under his 4 year watch. But the
Legislature keeps the spendthrifts in power as the control the
Gerrymandering.

LOL!!

I totally understand. I look like that proverbial bus myself, but I
can't do a damn thing about it unless I limit myself to one small baby
carrot in the morning, a spoon of cottage cheese at lunch and a
cracker at night. Due to the meds I take for my arthritis condition,
I can't get rid of the weight - my metabolism has slowed WAY down. As
it is, I only take in about 1200 calories a day and still weigh 250.

And I'm a pretty active type to boot - well, reasonably considering
the fact that I find walking a problem sometimes. I still do a couple
of miles a day and moderate strength stuff.

Hey, I'm used to it now. :)

And more insanity from the land of the fruit cakes:

http://sayanythingblog.com/entry/san..._nanny_staters...

Ban burning wood in fireplaces? What's next, banning cooking hamburgers on
a charcoal grill?

There is a county or county in the Netherlands where there is a tax on
back yard grilling which comes to something like $27 American. The tax
is to offset the CO2 emissions in relation to the environment (global
taxing). The most rediculous part of the whole law was they are
planning on flying a frekin' chopper with IR on hot summer evenings to
find scaflaws. Idiots...

That was an April Fools joke which is now Urban Legend.

Is the arthritis the reason for the interest in the bass guitar? Keep the
hands flexible & moving?

It's called revolution. After all, didn't you guys initiate the tax
revolution with Proposition 13? :)

10-4.

I discussed this with Tim - all my guitars, with the exception of the
'66 Strat, have wider than normal necks and I'm finding it difficult
to play as more nodes appear in the fingers.

The Strat is worth some bucks, so I generally don't play it - same
thing with my autographed Country Gentleman.

Thus, switching over to bass.

Bass may give you a narrower neck, but you'll need more force to play it.
You'll also utilize less fingers most of the time, so it may not give you
the workout all the fingers need.
