I can't agree with this guy and others I saw being labeled as "great". I watched several of the videos related to this guitarist that was mentioned at first. It is hard to describe what makes a difference between "good" and "great" , but here I will try anyway. These gu...

Keep in mind also there are tons of variables such as extent of coverage, deductible levels and so on. It's a real mixed bag to accurately compare. However, I think we all get the idea that it amounts to a scam what insurance companies charge in this country. On top of that (in case you weren't awar...

The costs can vary widely here in the US according to location of the insured car. Generally, urban areas will be a bit more than rural. However, there are variations within urban areas as insurance companies have split everything according to postal zip codes and accident rates within those zones. ...

Perhaps the Galaga player may have been in "War Games" with Matthew Broderick playing. Bishop of Battle is the game that JJ was obsessed with and later became consumed by. There is a scene at the beginning of the segment where JJ hustles money because he is such a supposed hotshot at the g...

Video game movie

Trivia. This one has been discussed a while back perhaps. But, since I just got through watching the movie "Nightmares" on Universal HD Sunday it got me to wondering if anyone remembers the game that JJ (Emilio Estevez) was such an expert on when he hustled the local Hispanics in their arc...

I had 8 and a half minutes to spare. Nice little visit back to my binary days of the 70s computer age...lol.

Also, nice nod to the Japanese craze, Sudoku.

Multiplication was a cinch. Just hoping the wires were the ones I thought they were referring to.

Thanks John. I forgot about that route. My daughter has installed Firefox on her laptop. I guess it's about time for me to do the same, huh?

I can't get a connection to download your song. OK...so what is the deal with the drummer? I see all the mic stands ready to go for a drummer. But...no drummer. Did you simply go without one? That would be different for your type of music. What kind of amplifiers were you and your band members playi...

Ibanez makes a very acceptable guitar/bass for starting out on. I think you'll be OK with that choice. How do you plan on learning once you get the bass? Formal lessons? For me, I started out that way (lessons) for about 6 months and then simply began using my ears to figure out songs that I liked. ...
