  1. ^^^^^^^^ That is what I get for having a daughter that has tons of art supplies
  2. PrismaColor Of course in a neutral skin-tone shade. If the surgery is botched they can color me back up ?
  3. See you automatically assumed it should be #2 pencil. I don't want this Cassette Surgeon messing around until I know they have the right pencil - aka surgical tool - Heck if they use a Flat Sketching Pencil, I'm as good as dead and shall never play again ?
  4. I don't know if I want that cassette operating on me. He/She/it didn't specify what type of Pencil ?
  5. With the music they are making they don't need layers. One take is all they need
  6. So when are the Amazon Keyboard Controllers that use Alexa coming out. I could really use one of those. Alexa start timer for dinner as I'm to lazy to get up off my A** and start one myself. Besides I'm jamming at the keyboard right now. Also Alexa make a riff in the key of Am (of course) 8 bars long for me. I'm to tired to play right now.
  7. @Bapu You just helped make my point Ed. Those guitars are not being played ?
  8. Wait folks are actually playing actual guitars still
  9. I will say Sears trimmed down the catalog business when they went into the super malls because you know everyone is going to want to shop there and at first the public did. My father worked for a photo studio that did a great deal of the photo shoots for the Sears, JCP catalogs plus others. Sears signed a big contract with them and the photo studio went and expanded. Sears the very next year basically ripped up the contract when they decided to trim the catalog business. The Photo studio and others that my dad knew closed down. So absolutely if Sears would of made the huge investment they would be sitting pretty now instead of basically a shell of a company. I don't mind Amazon it is the small mom and pop folks that are scrapping by. Another example, I was in local music store that sells band instruments and lady comes in with a cheap trumpet from Amazon that needs repair. Lady was mad at shop owner because the repair will most likely cost more then the trumpet she brought on Amazon. When she left the owner was like if she brought the trumpet from me for $150 more the repair would not of been necessary most likley and if it does need repair it would most likely of been a minor cost one. The metal used is so low grade in the cheap instruments that he said they are so time consuming to do repairs.
  10. The second one would be something my wife would say to me and just like that ?
  11. and quite a few of the homeless would rather stay outside and not seek shelter.
  12. Walmart and Target really did step up their game with online shopping so they might not be the only game in town. The mom and pop shop I'm not so sure.
  13. Be thankful you had a house to live in under house arrest. We use to help out at the Church providing for the homeless. The Pandemic forced the Church to close that down and the homeless were literally out on the street for several months with no place to go. Same with the shelters for Mothers. Wife's friend is a Social Service worker and said they were given no direction on what to do.
  14. Just don't touch the Baby Grand Piano ?
  15. I just look at what is included Fleer and I don't see that Kermit the Frog is included. Please update your post so nobody else gets confused ?
  16. I like that title. You should run with it while you still get the free offer
  17. So True. Even in the hobby industry there were Acme battery Holders of all sorts
  18. I try to give the business locally first before Amazon. I still appreciate knowledgeable service and willing to pay a little extra for it. I have been on the end where a customer blatantly shows me the price on Amazon after I just spent 20 minutes explaining the ins and outs of the few products. So if the price is way lower at Amazon we just trim that line and customers lose a demo and our knowledge. Yes Amazon might have the best price but now you have to order several of what we use to sell and try them out and return the ones that you opened and didn't work for you. So someone might get a great deal on the open box version. Time is money too. My wife doesn't understand Amazon for clothing and hopes Kohls is able to stick around. She wants to go try on the outfits and not order 10 online to return 9 of them. Of course we know several friends that do it all the time.
  19. Only so much money to go around and I figured I can be behind the curve on some software. Don't need the latest and greatest there is. Finale V27 is coming out and from the couple of blogs on it already I don't see anything that makes me go, take my money. I use Finale time to time and glad I have it but heck I only upgraded last time because I wanted the X64 version.
  20. Looks like I shall stay put on Version 4.
  21. Well don't leave us hanging Fleer. Are they in your left hand or right hand
  22. My teenage daughters say the same thing to me about forums. Dad they are so old fashioned. What can I say I'm not a spring chicken. I started way back in the day with dail-up modems and CompuServe BBS. These young whipper snappers don't know how good they have it
  23. You don't have to tell us that you have been taking your Prune Juice every morning
