*whines* aaah I need to vent so pardon my post. Today was very annoying. I fainted in the fitness centre because of my hypoglycemia and no one
bothered to help me. Then the teacher yelled at me for because she thought I was sleeping. LADY, JEEZ, IF I RANDOMLY FALL OVER DURING STEP CLASS AND
DON'T GET BACK UP AGAIN I AM NOT SLEEPING!! Argh.
AND THEN my friends told this guy that I liked him and I really didn't want him to know because he already has a g/f and that would be awkward
for him. Now I'm afraid he's weirded out. Especially because I zoned out today and didn't realize I was staring at his package and
he laughed at me. I swear I didn't mean to!
AND THEN I came home only to find that my door was locked and I didn't have a key!! So I was stuck outside for 3 hours in the freezing cold with
a thin jacket on!
Aah I feel much better now. Thank you.

I've got the old acid reflux so most everything gives me heartburn, and orange juice is one of the worst things. And the number one stomach
killer for me is pringles. I get a stomach hangover whenever I eat those.
What kind of bass do you have, Amanda? I'm surprised I haven't asked you that.
LOL, i have a blue agave Mexican made Fender
Standard Precision bass, and I love it with all my life....!
I drink a lot of orange juice.... I almost drink a carton a day... it tastes really good lol, i'll drink any kind, i dont care about brands or
styles.... just so long as it is just oranges.... no other fruits...

Ok, so I have a few resposes to things...first of all, SideO, I can't believe that CD's cost that much where you are. That's nuts. I
find CD's range from $9-$18 in Canada. And they seem to be getting cheaper, which is awesome. Like alot of canadian bands CD's have been
about $10..eg. Billy talent, the trews and 3 days grace. I find things in the states and canada cost pretty much the same, despite the exchange rate.
Sounds pretty awesome, Amanda. I need to get me a bass.
And Paige, I doubt this guy is weirded out. Most guys like it when girls like them and stare at their packages.

cds are only $9-$18 canadian? thats awesome! although most of the cds that i listen to are in the lower of the price range here like $9-$13 US. but
rap and pop can get up to $20 us. it's rediculous. Universal record co. lowered the prices of their cds just recently to about $13, but hit
albums are only $9. yay. too bad i dont like that many artists who are signed on to Universal.

It's true. But at shitty places like HMV you can find CD's for as much as $25. But I don't think anyone buys those ones.
A couple years ago when the exchange rate was so bad this would be more shocking, but currently your dollars isn't worth that much more than
ours. It's totally kick ass when I buy stuff off ebay now. Before if I bought something for, say, $50 american it would cost $75 and some change
canadian. Now it's more like $65.

*jaw drops*
I was going to buy a Mexican Fender Zone with active pickups, but I couldn't justify the cost (like 2200 bucks here, a standard Mexican P bass
is up around the $16-1700 mark) so I ended up getting an Ibanez SR400 instead (only $900). While it's a nice sounding bass, the zone sounds so
much better. Oh well, maybe in a few years, after I get a new amp.

What is the exchange rate?? It wasn't too bad for me.... i think it
was $600.... i wouldn't have minded getting an orange american jazz bass, but they are like $1600.... but my friend has me wanting a Carl
Thompson Custom bass, which start at $3500 (american) and he only makes them for certain people..... he'd never make me a bass .... my amp
is decent, i have a 100W Yorkville Bassmaster, i love it too.... i want to buy a new guitar over the christmas holidays.... i want to trade in my
electric guitar and buy an acoustic with an electric pickup..... hm......
Paige, lol, he prolly doesn't mind..... in fact he might have forgotten, im sure everything will be fine.... maybe things will turn out for the
best..... you are coming on sunday right? i paid for my ticket.... and then apparently they aren't getting them..... hopefully i dont have to
pay twice.....

I have that same amp mi. It's a solid unit for it's size, and price. I've even got some nice tone out of it on recordings too.

Do you use a bass amp for your 6 string, Rob?
$2200 Australian is about $1600 American, which is , I'd say, around $2150 Canadian. So Aus. and Can. money is about the same. So, saying that,
damn you pay alot for CD's in Australia.

Sweet. I'd tell you what I use...but you would laugh at me.
Most of my shit is the cheapest of the cheap. Besides my acoustic, though. That's acutally worth something.

Newsflash:
My father just said he's thinking of buying a "fender" (okay..im guitar illiterate so who knows how to spell it) because he's
thinking of playing again.....
Plus, we just watched wayne's world and he's like..."it will be mine,oh yes...it WILL be mine"
So...now we're looking for a guitar to buy him for Xmas.
DAMMIT!!!!
He wouldnt bid on Chris Schembri's guitar..but NOW he wants one?
grrrrrrrr...
and, that my friends, was my rant.
you won't let me down...

Yes, you spelled fender correctly. Dez, to get started on playing is really quite inexpensive. You can always start with a $150ish acoustic or buy one
of those electric guitar and amp bundles for around $300. You really don't need expensive stuff to start out with. In fact, in my opinion,
everyone should start with the cheapest crap and work their way up. Christmas , Dez. Christmas.

I have a question for the head guys about my PM box. For some reason it's only letting me have about 5 messages and it says I am full. While
when I started I could have about 12 before it said that. Actually, it seems as if everytime I have recieved one, that it lets me store one less than
before. And it's not because of the size of the messages, because they are all small.

you need to empty out your outbox folder too. If you have too many messages in the outbox, then you wont be able to send anything....
I fell in love with Warwick basses today...... *dies*.... I played about 4 today (but i saw tons....4,5 and 6 stings!)...... and had conversations
with several guys about their amazingness...... im in awe..... i wwwwwaaaaannnnnnttttt one......

Thanks, mi. That was the problem. I didn't even know there was an outbox.
