    Dating a girl with baggage

    The fact that she even thinks she has a choice in going to school, or having a kid out of wedlock, shows some serious family issues in her upbringing. Those problems started from early childhood.

    Leftys- do you find bass easier to play than guitar?

    I have no plans to switch to lefty. I learned guitar righty. I was just saying it's easier for me to play the individual notes on a bass with my right hand, than strumming a guitar with my right hand.

    Leftys- do you find bass easier to play than guitar?

    I'm left handed, and learned to play guitar right handed. But I've always had a hard time with my right hand- getting rhythm and strumming patterns down. The bass seems easier to me because my right hand isn't strumming with different rhythms. It is easier for me because it's individual...

    Not really. She's teaching him that marriage is meaningless and that marriage vows mean nothing.

    Rumble 40 vs Rumble 40 Studio

    I've been checking out the different articles and videos. It seems overly complicated to me. I'm really not into all the bluetooth stuff, or cordless, or modeling. I just like a more organic amp. I'd rather not have a computer. At least I know the difference now.

    Going to Tampa. What do I do?

    Restaurant checks have a line where you fill in the tip, if you want to leave a tip. It's not mandatory, but for normal/decent service, it's usually 20%. Crappy service can be less, and really crappy service doesnt deserve a tip. Most people leave 20%, and if you don't want to put it on a card...

    Going to Tampa. What do I do?

    Tampa is pretty much the same as other places in the western world. People are friendly. Don't be afraid to use first names once you meet someone, unless it's a business setting. If they are ok with first names, they will tell you. Most people are. The US is more casual than the rest of the...

    Going to Tampa. What do I do?

    Sales tax is 6% or 6.5%. There is no tax on most grocery items. Everything else is taxed at the same rate. Gasoline taxes are included in the price- tax is not extra. Tipping is mandatory, but it is expected for people in service industries, like waitresses. No tipping though at fast food...

    Rumble 40 vs Rumble 40 Studio

    So what's the deal with the new Studio? A modeling amp, I guess. Is it a real improvement over the regular Rumble 40?

    Priority 2 Day Mail isn't a priority anymore.

    My stuff goes out from a business location. USPS clocks it in on time, and from there it is taking four and five days, or longer in a few cases. This has all been in the past few months. I get it that there is a holiday rush, but the post office is a sophisticated entity and they should be able...

    Priority 2 Day Mail isn't a priority anymore.

    I agree. Every 2 day priority I've sent has taken four or 5 days. And USPS doesn't guarantee two days. I send a lot of priority mail, but we are stopping it and switching to first class, or better yet, Fed Ex or UPS. And while we are at it, Amazon Prime two day delivery isn't two days anymore...
