Take your best shot, Tom.

I considered buying that bass from Mingus at one point. Probably should have, since I wound up with a 5h anyway, which is now my main bass (due to the musical situation I'm in).
B5Hs are cool.

Actually, I was going to ask you if you wanted them? I've got quite a collection of lightly used flats now...

Create some contemporary sculpture with them.
That 5H is looking good, and probably even better were it not shown beside that gorgeous BFR.

Nah, them flats sposed to be better with age, so I'll send them to Jack. Sculpture, I guess I could make one with the used roungs

I catagorically refuse to participate in Jack harassment. If the Bongo is my deity, the Jack is the High Priest. Big Poppa winds up as some bizzare Hawaiian shirt wearing Holy Trinity.
Yours truly was the photographer of those pictures.
Maddog's avatar is from that set. Heck, I even drove the truck home.
All of that counts for Diddly
Please add my name to the list of fingerprints on that bass.
In keeping with the theme of the thread and so that I'm not hijacking or stealing thunder:
<Hassle Jack>
C'mon Jack hurry up and do that!
What are you crying about Jack?
Geez!
Why you gotta be like that?
</Hassle Jack>
Such worship of Jack will only get you hooked on Vodka martinis.
The blue ones like toilet water.

I literally subscribe to the "it's gotta be 5:00 somewhere" philosophy. If "somewhere" happens to be Jakarta, well...find me the olives..Such worship of Jack will only get you hooked on Vodka martinis.

This is exactly my outlook - and I speak a little Bahasa, so, in a way, a very foolish way, I can always justify it.

There is an element of truth to this, but remember the Indonesian guys that came to the Dallas bash? I freaked them totally out. And not just because I was nude and wearing high heels in Luke's room.

I hear from security that the insurance salesman that entered the room only to find jack naked in high heels with a feather duster in one hand and a martini in the other ran like Carl Lewis
