That was a George in a different life back then. He has repeatedly apologized and made amends for it. We should not swell, errrm, dwell on it anymore.

That said, it was one man-size reflection. Uncircumcised even.

Noice, hows the ripper comin?

Slow! The annual spring motorcycle hobby kicked in with full force this year so I haven't gotten back on the Ripper. Probably tonight after I visit my parents I'll work on stripping more paint. I think I have everything I need to complete it though. :)

Now that I have the bass back and have had a few days to play it, I absolutely 100% understand why Mark and Scott and some others like those older-style chromey ones! It's an amazing instrument, really.
