We're all gonna feel the fool when it comes out that basspersonified is in the final stages of a stomach-churningly horrible terminal disease and only wanted to find a good distortion before the music ends.
At least that would be my Make-A-Wish request.
Anyway, rock on, basspersonified. Though others here may mock your difficulty with the search feature, I am inspired by your courageous struggle.
BTW, creditors can't touch you once you're dead, so in your shoes I'd get a Blueberry (or two). The catch is that by the time Bjorn finishes the special order, it could be too late. OTOH, hey, a Blueberry is supernice.

well i did search
everyone should be proud of me and after reading several relevant seeming threads nothing really contained the information i was looking for.
and as far as me not having time i live 50ish miles from any music store with decent selection, so i like to have an idea of where to look before i get there, just an explanation to my now famed lack of time

Well, you're taking the bounce-in with good humor. Hats off to ya. As you're gathering, there is an overwhelming choice of distortion options.
If you're wedded to buying something you can try first in your area store, give them a call and ask what distortion pedals they have in stock that are suitable for bass. Then you can search here for reviews and comments on that short list.
You'll even find Talk Bass folks fairly friendly and helpful if you have questions about those specific pedals.
(BTW: my Blueberry comment above was a in-joke. They're handmade, have to be special ordered and take months to get, and pricey for a pedal. Moreover, as I posted here a day or two ago, I've heard one in person exactly once.)
