I actually traded for this guitar a little over a month ago, but I wanted to write a review after getting it setup and playing on it for a while. I found a guy on Craigslist that wanted $700 for a 1994 Jackson Professional Soloist XL, and, since I was short on funds, I offered him my 1985 MIJ...

I wasn't sure if TW had a non-fiction recommendation thread like the sci-fi/fantasy one (the most recent non-fiction thread I found was from 2008, and it wasn't a general recommendations thread), and I want some good reading for the summer while I am out of school. I'll start with my...

Anyone seen any good shows lately? There are a couple upcoming shows in my area that I am really excited about. Damn I am glad I live in a big city again.

Just looking for a little advice. Right now I am on my parents' plan (Sprint) and I am about to get off of it so help them cut some costs, so I am in the market for my own phone company. I don't have any particular kind of phone I want, although I do love Sanyos. I simply want a messaging (and...

I will be there today. Be jealous.

These were taken a couple of weeks ago when my buddy and I got invited to come to a late night jam at a bar, so we got up and played some of our original funk with my girlfriend and another friend. Then at the end of the night I got invited to come back onstage with the main guy for a jam (last...

So I surf Ebay every so often to see if I can catch any deals on a Buy It Now, and so far I've gotten pretty lucky with my purchases. In fact, if I am buying gear, Ebay is usually where I buy stuff from because I've had very good experiences. Today I bought a Genz Benz G-Flex 4x12 for $525...
