zeronyne Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 "Antibacterial soap" is NOT redundant. "Soap" only refers to a substances ability to break surface tension. If you are right-handed, you should be able to write fairly well with your left hand if you write backward while also writing normally with your right (like a mirror image). Now I want a lefty reversed MIDI keyboard. I'd rather be hit by 100 guitar pick-sized pianos than by a piano-size guitar pick. Quote "For instance" is not proof.

El Lobo Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 Does anyone else ever play The Tennessee Waltz? ... What I want to know is if the name of this song about the incident is The Tennessee Waltz, yet they were dancing to The Tennessee Waltz in the song, how did that song go? I've always wondered the same thing. Quote These are only my opinions, not supported by any actual knowledge, experience, or expertise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Synthaholic Posted July 26, 2018 Author Share Posted July 26, 2018 On Saturday, my fairly new Rode M1 microphone just failed to work. Never been dropped, not a mark on it, pop screens since I bought it. Ive never had a mic do this before. Anyone? A reminder, kids, to register your products! By registering this microphone at the time of purchase I receive lifetime warranty on this mic. I just have to pay shipping to get it to them. Yay!

Threadslayer Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 I'm currently on the road. The highway is punctuated regularly by signs that say "overtaking permitted when safe". Those last two words seem superfluous to me. I don't know about down under, but here in the states airline flight departures are now universally called out as "This will be the last and final call for Flight xxx departing for yyy." I mean if they're going to be silly about it, why not go for it and finish the job: "This will be the last,final, endmost, concluding, lattermost, and ultimate call for Flight xxx departing for yyy."

GRollins Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 Who was the first guy that thought eating an oyster might be a good idea? I've always wondered what dire set of circumstances drove someone to eat rotting cabbage: Kimchi. Okay, fine...I get it...you had a poor harvest in the fall, followed by a hard winter. Near the end of winter, you run out of decent food and have to go dig up food that's partially decomposed in order to survive. You do what you gotta do to survive. I get that part. But to willingly eat it later, when things aren't so bad? Really? Grey 1 Quote I'm not interested in someone's ability to program. I'm interested in their ability to compose and play.

Markyboard Posted August 8, 2018 Share Posted August 8, 2018 Strange dream- I went to get my haircut, usual place. When I got there the owner (Korean guy who usually cuts my hair) said it would be a long wait as they had a group of Australian visitors ahead of me; Markay, CowboyNQ and about 6 others were present. After waiting a while all of a sudden these guys along with all the Korean barbers start singing the Australian national anthem, a pretty good song I concocted in my dream or so it seemed at the time. Anyway I was extremely agitated that they were adding to my wait time. Still haven't gotten over it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CowboyNQ Posted August 19, 2018 Share Posted August 19, 2018 Anyway I was extremely agitated that they were adding to my wait time. Still haven't gotten over it. Apologies Mark. But as you now know, Aussies and Koreans love a national anthem sing along when we get together. Thanks for writing it by the way, good tune - had "soul".
