Re: Do You Play Guitar?

Geddy Lee of RUSH does a pretty good job of turning a bass into a lead guitar, I must say. btw: My guitars. The Crafter 25th anniversary ML rose edition is gone, however. I sold it to pay for the construction of Tycho Aussie. The RGZ 621M still rips! http://ws6transam.org/Gallery/albums/Othertoys/Cr...

Re: Trivial Things That You're Proud Of

Re: Change in style

Every comic changes its style over the years; Even Shulz's Peanuts. Personally, I like it, and agree that we've seen character development. Now we get to see some more play & interaction with those characters. Maybe the character development hasn't gone the way you liked or thought . It's all in...

Guys and Dolls , what a terrific arc.
If you all haven't seen Guys & Dolls, go do it! You can catch the 1950's adaptation on Netflix or Amazon prime.

There's favorite and then there is "most favorite". I have a few favorites, and it'd be tough to separate them out. Maybe rank them in order of first to last in terms of which one's I'd sell first and then last. One of my favorites that I'd probably sell last is my 1984 Pontiac Trans Am. ....
