My other obsession
Well, thanks for that Kingsmedic. I wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy. The inability to play that is,....not the arthritis. Here's an cruddy pic of my favorite, 1978 CBS model.- collin

One Of Those Days
Sorry to hear that Mason. The only time I destroyed a turbo, it was on a fire truck, in Oklahoma! I pulled out of the station and "WHAM!".....immediate loss of power and enough white smoke to cause 6 lanes of traffic to come to a screeching halt. I accompanied it to the shop and was given the...- collin

:D Welcome to the forums Kingsmedic, these guys are a lot of fun! I'd been playing since 1970 or so,....but can't anymore. :cry: Just the other night I tried to play one more time, but arthritus has pretty much put my left hand out of commission. I may have a few up for sale pretty quick...- collin

Best way to clean tarnished sterling silver band

Actually..I like the patina on silver...but I guess that's what I get for being a such a big fan of Antiques Roadshow. :D Silly looking appraiser to old lady from Duluth; "At auction....I'd give it a value of about $13. However had you not...- collin

Best way to clean tarnished sterling silver band
Jewelers rouge and a cloth. It only requires a couple seconds with a light touch. Pull the stem and with thumb and forefinger take a couple spins around the silver. If the finish comes off the pipe throw it out 'cause it's a piece of $#!+.- collin

Boycott List
I try to stay out of Wallmart, but that's about it. If I were to boycott even a tiny percentage of the businesses and corporations that use my money to promote things contrary to my beliefs,...I'd have to move to a farm, grow my family's food and learn to spin and weave.- collin

Being a senior Lieutenant with 25 years on the job,....and a rebelious butt-head, I've made it known that they can shove their rules up...- collin
