I was in town and had a couple of hours to waste while the pharmacy made up a compound for our little chihuahua who is not well. Anyway no friends home so I dropped into the "candy store", Music World in Thunder Bay. I played about a dozen Larrivees including a real expensive LV10 which was nice but I have a guitar that does what it does. The L-03 silver oak was okay. Wasn't blown away. The Music World special D-03 was nice as was the D-40. I really liked the OM-40 but I moved further down the wall and, there among the 12 strings, was surprised to discover a J-03RWO which I loved and want. More money than I have to spend on another guitar, however. Hmmm maybe I should sell something. But what?  :?

Yep. I blame the pharmacy for not having the meds ready on time and while they have lots of stuff for gas they have nothing for GAS.  :laughin:

I didn't take any pics but

Nice. I love a good jumbo. Hmmm. I wonder if they could ship it to Wisconsin?

You bet they can. That would solve my problem too. Could I come visit it?   :tongue:

Thanks. She is much better today. We couldn't even pick her up for the last three days as she would shriek in pain. We feared we'd have to put her down. She is our little darling and joy bringer, all four pounds of her. Terrible to see her suffer. Hopefully we have it figured out.

Pretty obvious that Music World is paying your drugstore to "go slow" filling your scripts.  :bgrin:

The ********!  :ohmy:

I saw a very nice J-09 in Flame maple recently.
you already have you BZ for a rosewood sound.... why not stretch out a bit?
"Senior" member means "old" right?
Like over 50?

Too many guitars to list here.
Too few brain cells to be bothered with...

Costs more and I already can't afford it?  :crying:

I've lost track whether this post is about meds or guitars or guitar meds.
yesterday I went to get a script filled, they do it right there while I wait (small town), then she handed it to me and said, "no charge".
Something about being 65 years young, anti biotic for an infected tooth.
so I went and bought a guitar instead.    :cheers

I hear ya, Kevin.
I'm on antibiotics for an infected tooth right now also as prelude to a root canal commencing next week.

And I'm 65 years old!

You guys still have teeth? Young whippersnappers!   :tongue:

well, I was told "Root Canal", but I haven't gotten around to it.
It got infected once, i got the anti biotics, and this time, when it happened, I did a sea salt riinse and listerine rinse  and before i could pick up the prescription, i managed to get rid of the infection,

But since the meds were free, I'll keep them around just in case.
the longer I can put of a near $2,000 root canal, the the better for me.
still, at my age .... "rebel with out a clue".... :beer
