Size matters...

I found this chart that's been tucked away in a folder for a couple of years - and it seems to take on new significance what with the glut of spam promoting size enhancement products.

I have no reason to debate this research except to affirm that it correlates with my own findings. Oh, and for all my friends in metric countries, there are approximately 2.54 centimeters to the inch. You should be able to find a units converter and calculator on the menubar.

Something about a flying V

There's something about a Flying V guitar. It's not for everybody. Even fifty years after its introduction, it retains a small following in the heavy metal set, but still is a rarity. That's because the guitar makes a statement. You can't just pick it up, unless you intend to play it with attitude.

I remember watching patrons of my music store getting uncomfortable as they got near one on the rack. In four years, I think a grand total of three people besides myself actually picked one up to play. Everybody else went for something more conventional. Myself? I've got three of the things.

That's all a long-winded way of saying that I kinda' like this picture. 

 

I think it's Grace Potter, 'cause she's one of the few girls (OK, the only one) I've seen that has the cajones to play a flying V in public.

Microsoft is not the answer.
Microsoft is the question.
NO (or Linux) is the answer.
