For anyone who cares:
There are [b]three[/b] Conklin GT-7s on sale on eBay, one of which is fretless.

e p 08-26-2004 08:08 PM

Links^. How much? Id get one if its in a cheap price range but chances are they'll explode price wise in the last day.



and my yahoo sn is ep_phisman.

Foxfire 08-26-2004 10:33 PM

Wow.

A few of my friends decided that since I'm different and weird, I'm not worth their time.

It's really quite interesting, I haven't talked to them in months, yet I've changed according to them.

Are we coming upon an age of psychic humans?

Oddly, I don't feel sad. At all.

That has happened to me over summers for the past two or three years...... the one's that have stuck with me when everyone else ditched me are some of my best friend's now......

Meh. She was one of those "best friends."

However, my bass-driven happy mood says "Oh well, better luck next time."

PaulSimonon 08-26-2004 11:06 PM

the girls that are "best friends" are always the worst anyways

Foxfire 08-26-2004 11:09 PM

Yep.

Who needs women when I've got my bass? Giggidy giggidy. Al-right.

theres always the imput hole..... OooOOo Im nasty

PaulSimonon 08-26-2004 11:13 PM

you need to listen to Hendrix's song Manic Depression, a few lines that fit right in to this topic....I've all but given up on relationships, women are too complicated for me..../ I get rejected too much

ScorpSath 08-26-2004 11:15 PM

Manic depression searching my soul I know what I want but I just don't know how to go about getting it...... Loev that song!!

PaulSimonon 08-26-2004 11:15 PM

"MAnic Depression" Jimi Hendrix


Manic Depression's touching my soul,
I know what I want,
but I just don't know how to go about getting it.

Feeling, sweet feeling
drops from my finger, fingers
Manic Depression's captured my soul.

Woman so willing the sweet cause in vain,
you make love,
you break love,
it's-a all the same when it's...
when it's over.

Music sweet music,
I wish I could caress, caress, caress.
Manic Depression's a frustrating mess.
Well, I think I'll go turn myself off an' go on down.

Really ain't no use me hanging around.
Oh, I gotta see you.

I love almost every hendrix song... Manic depression, All Along the Watchtower (really a Dylan song, but who cares), Purple Haze, pretty much everything

Foxfire 08-26-2004 11:20 PM

Were this two months ago, I would've said "being happy is overrated."

At the moment, I'm oddly happy.

Though I'm sort of annoyed; can lifting weights stunt growth? If so, I think I'll stop.

PaulSimonon 08-26-2004 11:22 PM

I don't think it will do much... I've been known to lift from time to time myself and I'm 5 11 and going through another growth spurt, but I probably lift only 3 times a week at most, and I'm going for reps, not maxing out

Foxfire 08-26-2004 11:26 PM

Well what I'm doing.

I'm 5'9 at the moment. I haven't grown at all during the summer. I lift three times a week, doing one set for each exercise. I do 6-10 reps, aiming for a mass that is hard for me to lift 6 times.

PaulSimonon 08-26-2004 11:27 PM

Does anyone else think that Bob Dylan is the most influential artist (other than the beatles)

Lifting weight definately can stunt growth. The factors are the amount of weight you lift/reps because they can mess up your joints(restricting new bones.)

I doubt it stunts it that much. Ive been lifting for 2 years now and am bout 6'2. Just remember to [B]stretch[/B]. helps



About that girl thing...in my experiences the "best friend" who is also a girl usually screws you over in the long run but if she is a "best friend" with no flirting/dating intentions than its just fun to hang with them. Theyre usually funny too.

Foxfire 08-26-2004 11:29 PM

Like I said in the other one:
"Well what I'm doing.

I just started last month and I've made it a habit to stretch before and after any type of exercise I do, be it aerobic or lifting or some sort.

I go for one thats hard after around 10, and go to 15 or 20 reps, depending on what I'm doing the next day...... but I do a lot of Cals, and less weights because hockey is less about being strong than it is about having a strong core and being able to go in 45 sec bursts and recover quickly..., unless I can get in a sled, then its lifting, but that doesn't happen often.. but I use free weights most of the time as the sled is available once a week during conditioning for hockey, and most times we can't use it

Foxfire 08-26-2004 11:31 PM

I think I'm going to try to do "slow lifting."

I've recently upped my amount of aerobic exercise.

I dunno, I'm just sad that I haven't gotten any taller. :'( :p

Try not to lift anything that you cant initially do 15 reps of maxing out/heavy weights what your doing can be damaging9and stunt growth what your talking about.)

I do something like this (example)
leg ext. 90lb warmup of 30 reps
150lb 15 reps
170lb 12 reps
200lb 10 reps
220lb 8/10 reps


Depending on what your goal is, doing more reps rather than just sheer weight is more beneficial in the long run. More muscle fibers are used giving you more endurance, muscle mass/shape.

good luck, hope this helped

ScorpSath 08-26-2004 11:32 PM

Foxfire you're 13 right, you are taller than me im only 5'5-5'6.

e p 08-26-2004 11:34 PM

I think i remeber him saying hes 13^
how old are you (scorp)


remember free weights are your friends.

Okay, I'll give it a try. So aim for less weight but more reps? My understanding is that it will take longer to develop muscle, but it's more benficial; is that correct?

And yeah, I only use free weights for the most part.
