Of course then again I always end up browsing through the newest posts...like this one.

I probably log more TB hours than on bass, simply due to the amount of hours at work. |

If my computer is on, TalkBass is on, although I'm not actively surfing TB all of that time. I'm at work about 10 hours per day most days. |
