I've only got about 10 or 20 posts outside the Bass Forum, then most of them in here are in the casual threads.

PaulSimonon 10-10-2006 10:45 PM

I've got a lot of posts everywhere really. Most of them were in casuals though. Back when we had the Compendium I was the highest posting member in it...

Mr. Pickle 10-10-2006 10:46 PM

i go into the general discussion, but i never post in it. i think the only thread i've posted in the past few months in there is the forum flag thread thats in there now.

Spaceman Spiff 10-10-2006 10:47 PM

Yeah, I was one of the top posters in it... I forget exactly where I ranked... in the top 5, I think.

Thonk 10-10-2006 10:47 PM

Pickle: I heard in the guitar forum the user "Guitarded" started it.

He's a nub.

PaulSimonon 10-10-2006 10:50 PM

So, I need a smoke break but I'm too lazy. I don't have any bud, so it's not as fun.

Mr. Pickle 10-10-2006 10:50 PM

hmm, i guess that would make sense. i don't know guitarded all that well, but i do a little. the person who made that thread is either someone from the forum or someone who is actually retarded.


makes sense i suppose.

anyone familiar with the federalist papers

Aerodyne 10-10-2006 10:56 PM

I own it. Haven't read it, though.

Anybody checked out [url]www.bassplayer.tv[/url] ? It's a nice little set of videos. It's got a cool clinic with Reggie Hamilton, though.

Off the top of my head, not extremely. What is it you wanted to know? We studied them extensively in one of my classes last year, but we went through the entire book, so the exact invidual papers escape me a bit.

im getting a name change to phelix once im in college, only because that would be cool as hell (phil --> phelix)

Spaceman Spiff 10-10-2006 11:15 PM

Felix --> Fill

Fill is a way cooler name.

Aerodyne 10-10-2006 11:16 PM

I would go phillus or something like that. Phallus? You could claim that you're a symbol of virility in Greece. I'm sure a good deal of college kids would buy it.

Morning all.


Something to kick of the day or end it, depending on where in the world you might be.



[FONT=verdana][SIZE=2][COLOR=#6365ce]Pilots V. Mechanics

After every flight, Qantas pilots fill out a form,called a "gripe sheet,"
which tells mechanics about problems with the aircraft. The mechanics
correct the problems; document their repairs on the form, and then pilots
review the gripe sheets before the next flight.

Never let it be said that ground crews lack a sense of humor.

Here are some actual maintenance complaints submitted by Qantas' pilots
(marked with a P) and the solutions recorded (marked with an S) by
maintenance engineers. By the way, Qantas is the only major airline that
has never had an accident.... Enjoy!

P: Left inside main tire almost needs replacement.
S: Almost replaced left inside main tire.

P: Test flight OK, except auto-land very rough.
S: Auto-land not installed on this aircraft.

P: Something loose in cockpit.
S: Something tightened in cockpit.

P: Dead bugs on windshield.
S: Live bugs on back-order.

P: Autopilot in altitude-hold mode produces a 200 feet per minute descent.
S: Cannot reproduce problem on ground.

P: Evidence of leak on right main landing gear.
S: Evidence removed.

P: DME volume unbelievably loud.
S: DME volume set to more believable level.

P: Friction locks cause throttle levers to stick.
S: That's what they're for.

P: IFF inoperative.
S: IFF always inoperative in OFF mode.

P: Suspected crack in windshield.
S: Suspect you're right.

P: Number 3 engine missing.
S: Engine found on right wing after brief search.

P: Aircraft handles funny.
S: Aircraft warned to straighten up, fly right, and be serious.

P: Target radar hums.
S: Reprogrammed target radar with lyrics.

P: Mouse in cockpit.
S: Cat installed.

And the best one for last...

P. Noise coming from under instrument panel. Sounds like a midget pounding
on something with a hammer.
S: Took hammer away from midget.

Quantas of course being an Australian airline, hence the original comment.

Pluperfect_Arson 10-11-2006 02:11 AM

Yeah, I assumed that it was an Australian airline.

I always seem to think Australian/European humour is much funnier than American humour. I am so out of place over here or something. :upset:

The thing I think is that the humor of the European countries and the ones colonised by them is more of a "thinking" or "verbal" humour.

I have always found the American and Canadian humour to be more "physical" e.g. the pie to the face, the falling over something.




Another laugh for you.

:lol::lol:

Yeah, I have never found a pie to the face all that comical. Someone tripping is occasionally funny, though, but not so much.

Aerodyne 10-11-2006 02:26 AM

I ordered some new strings today. D'Addario Half-Rounds .055-.110. Heavy *** strings. Got 'em from bassguitarstrings.us. I'm excited. Yay. :smash:

I also don't get the pie to the face part, as for the tripping, I don't find it funny if it results in the person being injured or hurt.

Aerodyne 10-11-2006 02:31 AM

That's weird. I'm in the dorms at university right now and close to 100 people started having a random party in the parking lot. :confused: It lasted five minuted then they dispersed. The funny part is, almost everyone was gone, then the cops arrived. "Jeez guys, it's the fuzz!" Gotta love the Outsiders. Anyway, I'm out, it's 2 a.m. and I've got a test on The Satyricon in the morning. :wave:

Good stuff.


I discovered DR and for all intensive purposes I will not really use anything else, except Warwick Red Lables becasue they are cheap.



I do however love D'Addario Chromes for my fretless.

I mean, if they are terribly injured from the fall, then, yes, it isn't funny. I find it funny, though, if you and your mate are just walking along talking, and then, all of a sudden, he/she trips or stumbles a bit.

It is mainly their facial expression that I find the funniest because they always look so ridiculously goofy.

[COLOR=#6365ce]A frog goes into a bank and approaches the teller. He can see from her
nameplate that her name is Patricia Whack. So he says, ''Ms. Whack, I'd like
to get a loan to buy a boat and go on a holiday.''

Patti looks at the frog in disbelief and asks him how much he wants to
borrow. The frog says $30,000. The teller asks his name and the frog says
it's Kermit Jagger and that it's ok, he knows the bank manager.

Patti explains that $30,000 is a substantial amount of money and that he
would need to secure some collateral against the loan and asks if he has
anything he can use as collateral.

The frog says ''Sure, I have this'' and produces a tiny pink elephant, about
half an inch tall. Bright pink and perfectly formed.

Very confused, Patti explains that she'll have to consult with the manager
and disappears into a back office. She finds the manager and says: ''There's
a frog called Kermit Jagger out there who claims to know you and wants to
borrow 30 grand. And he wants to use this as collateral''. She holds up the
tiny pink elephant. ''I mean, what is this?''

The bank manager replies: ''It's a knick-knack Patti Whack. Give the frog a
loan, his old man's a Rolling Stone''.[/COLOR]

Pluperfect_Arson 10-11-2006 02:36 AM

:lol:

Alright, that was my last laugh for the night.

Thanks for those!

I am off to sleep now.

Have a good rest of your day!
