Will this work, or will one beat the @!$%*! out of the other?

Tank size = approx 65 gallons.

Not sure, but there's something cool about a Professor saying "@!$%*!".

Professors say all sorts of things...you should hear me the week before finals, when things are really crazy. Sometimes I've even been known to say @!!!##$!!!*!

Sort of what I figured.

I don't know why, but now that reminds me of a Spongebob episode. They read something like that on the trash can out back and well...I doubt you watch that show. On a side note Spongebob in Spanish is Bob Esponja.

(I always wanted to use that book one. )

We probably would if we could (or maybe not....I've never actually seen the show so I don't know what it is like), but cable costs too much money (and it seems making use of all those stations would take too much time!).

Whenever I travel and stay with relatives who have cable, I'm always amazed by how there can be so many stations and so few of them have anything I'd want to watch. There are some cool stations though, like the ones with old sitcoms from when I was a kid (and before), and some of those stations with pretty much continuous nature shows.

Actually...hardly watch TV at all anymore.....my veg-out downtime tends to be used up by my guitar obsession (and no, that is not a guitar in my avatar...that is my previous and still occassional obsession)

This is the only reason I have satellite. I have so many nature shows taped it's scary.


Crap, now that I'm using these icon things, I don't know how to remove them. Anyhow, I have lots of nature shows taped. They replay them each at least twice the night they are on. I watch them to see if I want to tape them, then set the vcr and go to bed. My kids can't get enough of them and will put them in on the weekends.

Without cable, we are limited to PBS for this sort of thing. The cool thing about PBS (or TPT2 anyway) is that they repeat the evening lineup after 11:00 or midnight or something like that, and you can record Nature, or whatever, at night without interfering with other VCR useage.

Yep, my vcr runs start at 11:00 usually, after I go to bed...

I have always liked the Banjo headstock Bill. What type of guitar do you play? What sort of music?

[PSH]

What is a VCR?

Thanks. Built it myself (and designed and installed the inlay myself) to escape from my first semester of grad school!

These days mostly a classical guitar - for me lately, nothing else really compares to the sound and feel of this guitar. I also play strat and tele electrics (if that means anything to you)...wish I had a LesPaul (but wish even more that I had a decent steel string acoustic for the bluesy and folksy stuff I play). I play every style I can manage, but mostly fingerstyle stuff – things with melodies and lots of notes (a spin off from my decades of banjo playing) – I'm normally the only person who hears me play and so I normally play solo, so I gravitate toward things that really catch and keep my interest. Lately have been obsessed with a spanish-classical piece called Recueros de la Alhambra (a really really cool piece...I can even pretty much play it now), and previously with some South American pieces. Someday I'd love to get good with flamenco. Wish I knew more about jazz too (and having more of a clue with rock would be fun...OH WELL...not enough time to explore everything).

On banjo, I play mostly bluegrass, irish fiddle tunes (my favorite), and some Bach (that I have not played much lately and have mostly forgotten now ....A banjo played with finesse is absolutely perfect for Bach....sort of sounds like a harpsichord, but nicer and with a greater dynamic range.) Not playing banjo so much these days though – the guitar has taken over, and there are too few hours even for that. My banjo used to be practically my constant companion in my spare time though, and I sort of feel like I've been cheating on my banjo by playing guitar so exclusively in recent years!

Its sort of hard to fit in any music at all a lot of the time, actually. I don't have much time for all this music stuff, so it takes me forever working on a new piece to learn it well (I'm doing well if I can master 2 or 3 new complicated pieces a year....heck, one Bach piece on guitar took me a year to memorize, and I still can't really play it well). It is the one thing I do that can take my mind off of EVERYTHING else though, so there is probably some health benefit to this (thats my rationalization anyway), and its more fun and relaxing than watching a half hour of TV before bed.
