    To clarify,
    I was referring to snobbery about French wine, not the actual snobbery of the French people. Loosely using this as as example of the silliness of adult pissing contests. Never fails to amaze me how #### gets more attention than intellect. Why just turn on the TV or listen to the radio for proof!

    Steve, no offence taken at all!

    I love my country more than most things in my life, I really do. But as I always say, I wish it wasn't so full of French people


    A votre santé!

    That's funny!
    I live in a different country, but I feel somewhat the same way about mine sometimes!

    That is actually the main factor why I've lived in the UK for 9 years!

    "The best" is whatever you're playing at the moment.

    Does Grisman endorse a certain type of black tape for his Gibson? I get better tone out of American made tape than the new stuff from walmart.

    Who will they be copying 80 years from now? T bags?

    I guarantee that you guys will all be laughing when you see the new Gibson Signature Artist Models that are coming out. I will say no more but you will just have to wait and see!
    If F-model mandolins have F-holes then why don't A-model mandolins have A-holes???

    Just a guess....but that supposed Ronnie McCoury signature model that was mentioned a while back would be Gibson's approach to an X-braced model since his Gil is. #No, I don't know anything besides hints from what was posted here and what I have discussed with others.

    Scotti, I have a Mac, so I don't know if this will work for you:
    Put your cursor on the icon, click and drag it to the desktop, and drop it.
    Then post it as an attached image.

    Try a right mouse button click and select "Save image as" (or whatever is similar to that).

    Scotty, It's a good one isn't it? You're not the first to ask me for it

    Easy as pie:
    - Right-click on the image, select "Save Picture/Image As...", select where you want to save it and press Save/OK


    Alternatively:
    - Get it from the source by clicking on this link and selecting Save from the File menu

    I'm closing this one down. The ambulances have all left. The wreck has been cleaned up and the bodies have been taken to the hospital. You may now shut off your peecees and introduce yourselves to the people you've been wondering about that live in your house.
