I agree with Fran, and will consciously try to stop mounting that old soapbox so often.

This is the ONLY n-line site I visit, so you guys are pretty important to me.

Thanks to wise old Don for pointing out the negativity, in a considerate way.

I'll call Rachelle and tell her I'm no longer a fan.

Gosh Fran, I didn't know you were that smart......kidding, kidding. Of course you're 100% right. If only we could get everyone (including me sometimes) to see it in that perspective. That line about having a sense of humor is so, so true. I like to think that I have a sense of humor but I will admit that there are some things that will make me bristle. Sometimes malicious intent is present and sometimes it's just a case of not being aware of the effect that what you say may have on others. You know, our basic attitude towards others is sometimes just one layer of skin away and can pop up like a rash at any given moment. I'm really glad you 'stepped up' to put your spin on this. It's sad to see grown men act like babies. We see enough of that on the daily tweet machine . Oh and can you picture me, Russ, and Mark on the same bandstand; B3, Vibes, and ....accordion? Wonder how French Musette music sounds with a nice 'in the pocket' backbeat?

BTW, Roland gear sucks! Long live Korg and Yamaha.

Jerry, the picture tells it all, I love it.

Maybe we would fit for an audition for "Grympy Old Men 2"
