Couldn’t ever do it. I love my pasta with garlic and olive oil too much to ever give it up.
I need to go from dark to light across 7 or 8 ocataves. 9 different Colors In Some cases.
...
I once gave notice at a factory job just in time to miss inventory. We were going to have to count every piece of material, fastener, etc. I am not exaggerating when I note that we had several newly opened two-gallon canisters of things like 8/24x3/8 and 10/32x1/4 bolts along with their corresponding washers and nuts (each in a separate can, of course). No shortcuts. Count them all by hand. Washers.
My pleas to count several piles of one hundred, weigh them, then weigh the rest and divide, were ignored (even though we made precision scales). So when a friend recruited me into another job, I jumped at the chance.
"You're crazy! We get overtime!"
"Yeah, but my brain would commit suicide before the week was over."
I’m tired let me try that again I need as many as 9 shades of the same color.... distinguishable... I like the paint programs because i remember being able to pull any color from anywhere and filling the blanks with it.... cheaper.....easier.
This if for the which Colors correspond to which notes thread
I’m going to apply it to guitar and bass but use the piano for the widest frequency range then pull the according frequency Colors for the bass so when you get used to a certain color everyone can play the same color not just same note....I want it for teaching and for myself... I think the added dimension will make contrived concepts intuitive.

There are really only two real Dolls albums, New York Dolls and Too Much Too Soon. Both are fabulous. Took glam and steered it toward punk. I’m over simplifying, but give them a few spins and you’ll see.
A very good watch.
Nikki Monninger of Silversun Pickups. One of my favorite “modern” bands. All Bird, all the time. And she is a sweetheart.
Well, I had a huge crush on Linda Ronstadt. Then she came along.
Aussie Rules was invented as a way to keep cricketers fit over the winter months. It is it’s own beast - most closely similar to the Irish games of Gaelic Football with a bit of Hurling. As well as the indigenous game Marngrook played by the Aboriginal people in various locations.
Not a Rugby game (a long way back link as is the case for American Footy) though in the 1900s-1910s they was a movement to merge Rugby League & Aussie Rules into a hybrid game against Rugby.
So, you start with all the lights on and turn each off when counted. You know you are done when it is dark?
You made my mouth water... does your love for pasta, sauteed garlic and olive oil also include broccoli rabe?
When my daughter makes it.
Ooh, that looks gooood.

I'd say choose the one with the best neck.
I've had my Greco Thunderbird stringed BEAD for the last three years. Never even had to touch the trussrod!
Yeah, I'm leaning towards Golden Boy or the 2015 Oddball, mainly because I have plans for the other basses, and it leaves at least one bass as extraneous. Of course, I could bypass the BEAD thing entirely and just pick up a 5-er down the road. Hmm.....
They are out there... I'm on my second Thunderbird Studio V and it's fun to have around. I have the Ebony one now, had the Cherry one before.

You may have to file the string slots in the nut a little wider, in order to get a proper action in the first few fret positions. But I wouldn't do that straight away. First string it with BEAD and see if you can get used to it for about a month or so. If you think you're going to stick with the BEAD, then file the grooves in the top nut to the desired string widths. There is no way back... You're going to have to replace the nut if you're switching back to EADG.
