    Cheap here.
    Haven't bought a single ham related item since Feb. 2006.

    Ummm... I have actually rolled up a foil hotdog wrapper and stuck it the back of one o' deez. (a Peavey CS-800)
    'cause they're bulletproof and everyone knows the show must go on.

    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.
