I thought you had picked up a 361 Power Plus cabinet as well. If you land the 300 power amp, you can drive a 371 or 301 cabinet, which is essentially the same as a 361 only without the power section.
you so belong here…I just put down payment on my NR Thunderbird, its the sparkling burgundy one. Will have it in about a month, then i can really party with you guys, lol
oh and WWII aircraft, don't even get me going there....love me some old airplanes, especially military. Am only 2.5 hours from wright patt base, with an awesome free museum. I've been at least 20 times in last 25 years..
I did, and I've rehab'd the power amp, but am waiting on a replacement speaker. The original, the surround has become dust. I have a buddy down here (bottomend! in the Acoustic group) who has a Cerwin L187 that was reconed with one of the last original US recone kits, we've just gotta figure out when we can meet and I can buy it. I've actually been looking for a 371 rig too, there's a few 301 cabs down here, and there's a 270 in Vegas cheap I'm working on getting.

Well, maybe it's because of me having slept lousy this night. I got woken up at eight, first by my mom's pill dispenser. (She lives next door, and that stupid thing wakes up the whole frigging neighbourhood.) And not soon afterwards by a guy from gas company coming in to check up if I have the right readings on my meters. (Why the heck don't they let me know in advance when they're coming around for that and that early in the friggin' morning!)
But I had been cooking all day about certain kinds of war movies that I used to watch, where everybody speaks English, even the opposing side. That was a trope which still irks me to this day.
And then I realized that I'm actually just as guilty about doing so. Because for the last two years I've been busy doing a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles fan comic, in which again, everybody speaks English while under the pretence that some of them are speaking Japanese.
I used a different Font of lettering and Japanese Honorifics such as “- San” and “-Sensei” to show that not all of them are speaking English, even though they were clearly doing so.
So, I came up with the idea, to take these scenes and replace the dialogue with ACTUAL Japanese. Which brings home the whole “What are they saying, I don't understand them.” part of those language barrier scenes such as the one I posted here.
So here's that same scene…
The Kanji says the same thing as on the upper page, but the fact that it's Kanji, has that effect of “Two languages in one scene.”
And even more dramatically in THIS scene where it actually shifts from one country to another.
It becomes totally different in feel with actual Japanese in there.
This was a hell of a lot of work because even with translators, I still had to take Japanese phrasing and idioms in mind, Are there any Japanese people here in this thread who could tell me how I did?

Hey @D.M.N. Your new album is the first album listed on my Spotify New Releases for You feed. I’ll be checking it out tonight.
Are the other 3 anywhere nearby?
Yes.lol, post by post now, i'm seeing words i don't understand, and really can't tell if its about cars or basses
Yes, yes, and YES.That one of Uwe's - I should have repatriated it
Yes indeed!
They are, but I don't remember seeing them. I did see the nose with machine gun still attached. Sitting on it was a cartridge of 50 cal. bullets. I picked it up to check it out and then put it back down where I found it. A lot of that stuff is still live.
One of those car designs that looks like it’s moving fast just sitting there! Love the color.If money were no object(it is), I'd like a 2021 NR refinished in this(Emberglow)color. I had my factory silver 62 Impala painted this color. It looked great-'til I got 'hitandrunned'.(Mustangs used a similar colr)
I just put down payment on my NR Thunderbird, its the sparkling burgundy one. Will have it in about a month, then i can really party with you guys, lol
oh and WWII aircraft
In full Panda dress no less, that might even be cooler than bunny slippers.
Love the color combo! Is that a refin?
That's my friend. I'm the one on the left.
You take coolness to new depths!
