Double Bass First thread!

I find strong similarities between my wife & my bass; both demand absolute respect and I consider both beautiful enough to make me feel like the accessory.

They are, however, also dissimilar; one's a big, fat-bottomed girl* and the other is my wife!

(Hey, I'm not planning on sleeping in the doghouse any time soon...!) :p


*No, I've nothing against girls with big-bottoms; look up the song first before screaming "Mysogyny!". I'm definitely an advocate of the hourglass figure over the: "Let me give you a hug... oh, crap I just snapped you, I'm so sorry, are you okay, I didn't mean it, it's just that you're... well, more than just a bit undernourished...!"-look...
 
I gotta say, I am not really into hopping through seven forums to read the seven new posts a day that happen on TBDB...

Two points to be made here:
  1. There is more than one way to access the TB forums. I've only ever used one way: I visit the site's main listing of forums and I scan down the page for activity. That takes a nanosecond longer with each new forum we add. I might miss some new activity working this way, but I usually don't feel the need to see absolutely every new piece of business; and,
  2. There's something or somebody forcing you to read these forums?
