    Came home to a surprise on Friday! ('82 Aria LW-12T) - Help needed

    Hey araT - congrats on the new instrument! I.A.N.A.L., so take my comments for what they're woth; but I'll second tjcurtin here... The saddle is really low - illustrated by the VERY shallow break angle of the strings. -- Does 'neck resetting' mean anything to you? : ... neck resets are to...

    GPS on the way!

    For no-frills get-me-there gadgets the entry level Garmins always get's good reviews. Bought one for my parents and I agree. https://buy.garmin.com/shop/shop.do?cID=134 Consider wheter you would like TMC as an option http://www8.garmin.com/traffic/fm/index.jsp, then you wil have to move a bit...

    Can someone please explain this?

    Boy that was a scary story pieman - wishing you a speedy recovery... Ditto... Says reason, but instinct sometimes takes over, as mentioned. I have on one occasion shocked myself by adminstering a (very moderate) punch to the body of a person I was arguing with, under the influence of a couple...

    Anyone visiting Denmark shortly?? :)

    I just did - although the purchase was a 160 GB harddrive, a replacement for the 40 GB in my laptop that always holds 39 GB no matter how often I throw stuff away! :) Had my eye on that for a while too, and suddenly the price dropped 35% to only DKK 260 = US$ 53 ... very cheap... That will...

    Anyone visiting Denmark shortly?? :)

    Thank - You're right, given the exchange rate of 0,8 from SEK to DKK there'a a slight saving (300 DKK = 60 US$)... I'll see if I can contain my GAS! :p

    DO NOT try this one!!

    I'm warning you, don't! It has got to be one of the best and most time hogging little games I have ever tried, a real classic... Slingshot penguin Kevin

    Anyone visiting Denmark shortly?? :)

    I am SO looking forward to this flying thing! :dude: You're right, it can be found on ebay and shipped to Denmark - but the biggest obstacle is my fear of it being picked up in customs, adding tax and VAT will quickly spoil the deal... :eek:

    Guess the note

    "This is a simple ear training tool. It plays a musical interval, and shows you the bottom note. You click the top note." http://www.humanbenchmark.com/tests/ear_trainer/index.php

    How fast are you? (sheep content)

    Here's another one.. http://www.humanbenchmark.com/tests/reactiontime/index.php Nicely done, I think..

    How fast are you? (sheep content)

    Right, and now I sort of do it again... :AOK: My best for a single sheep was just under 0.12... I seems to me the traffic light is more fair = far more consistent and reproducible: The 15 or so tries where I felt 'that was just right' all returned 0.187 or 0.188 sec... And I think the sound...

    Ever try to clean your iPod ?

    One of the best SOUNDING players... - is in the opinion of many the Sansa Clip. I have one, I think the sound is great too. Add to that: inexpensive (2 GB and radio = $50-60) very compact design fair battery life (12-15 hrs) a helpful forum and on-going support from Sandisk (updates their...

    So it looks like we'll have another woman in my house.

    Congratulations...! :beer:

    How fast are you? (sheep content)

    A little more 'fair' site I think http://getyourwebsitehere.com/jswb/rttest01.html - out of my first 10 (single) tries, 8 where either 0.187 or 0.188!!
  16. Simon

    How fast are you? (sheep content)

    fun and stupid! :) Are you citing your best single-sheep-times(!), or the average? Didn't think I was going to get under 0.18, but then a little focused effort on my 10-20th round just gave me an 0.1516 average - still only 'Rocketing rabbit' though...

    Anyone visiting Denmark shortly?? :)

    Gassing for a little electronic gadgetry - Garmin GPS navigator I glance at these GPS'es once in a while, and as I today have joined a paraglider club, I see another potential application, tracking flights... But still I find the local price tag ($530) steep for what would mostly be a toy, so...

    My first cab build

    Just a thought - wheels on one side and some kind of feet on the other? Then you can drag it along at an angle, but it will stay put when you play on 10...! (Unless you will have to stoop too much to be comfortable, that's not good for your back either)
