I'm expecting Bo Nix to break out this year and show the naysayers that he is indeed a top ten or top 5 QB in the NFL. The guy is in the right offense with the tight attitude and physical skills. Actually, being one game from the Super Bowl last year should have been enough to convince more...

I recently found a copy The Searchers by Alan LeMay - the book from which the John Ford movie was made. LeMay also wrote The Unforgiven. For some reason this book has been out of print for years, which surprises me. I'll resell it now that I have finished it. The movie reflects the book...

Agreed about Oregon, but nothing would make me (and the entire new PAC-12) happier than a Coug victory next weekend! Whether you're a fan or not, the resurrection of the PAC is one of the most positive developments in college football in a long time.

They should have done what the Broncos did with Wilson - eat the contract, pay him and move on. I think Sanders will be starting soon.

The Rockies have been a lot more interesting this year, but they'll have to win 50% of their games to stay under 100 losses. It's not looking favorable.

I would definitely NOT sell the P, as you will immediately regret it. Squier and other less expensive basses often sound great. Look there, and look at used ones - - they're a better value.

I've met a few. All good folks with good stories. I have a few stories myownself.

My response, which you won't like...? Leave it ALL at home other than a tuner. You have enough EQ between your bass and the house sound that you don't need them. You're playing bass, not lead, and it's a church, not a metal festival.

I can understand that if she objected to the women being used strictly as objects/window dressing. Nevertheless, male biology was used to great advantage in that Addicted to Love video. My wife gets both sides of that, but still agrees it's a produced and very effective video.

I still have a Voit double hose regulator that worked last time I tried it around 1998. Tried to sell it a couple of times but no one wanted to pay anything for it. My high school graduation present was a 1958 Fiat 1200 Spyder. VERY fun car!!

Last night I watched Sea Hunt (found streaming) for the first time since the 1950s. Like thousands of others, that show got me interested in scubs diving. I clearly remembered that in the intro to that show, Lloyd Bridges put on a triangular-shaped mask with a regulator built into it. I watched...

I like that idea!! And that reminds me - the video for Addicted To Love has always seemed like the ultimate music video - singer, rock music, lots of pretty girls dancing in sync. Seems like "music video" in its purest form.

I'm thinking that was inertia-induced oversteer, not caused by acceleration of any kind.....!

I've discovered how to be better than mediocre. I fell in with a small group of guys who are all a year or two into learning their instruments. Three guitarists and a drummer, all in roughly the same place on the learning curve. I joined because I wasn't in a band and thought that it would be...

Reviews appreciated, of course.
