You shall be the bard of the party. I am good with science. I shall be the mage. We just need a fighter and a healer.

As long as you are collecting legal items, it’s no one else’s business. I have personally known old sailors that have collections of spoons, Zippo lighters, foreign currency, mugs and what ever struck their fancy, even a huge collection of Buddha figurines, drawings, artwork etc. all owned by an atheist.

Oh my god, I vote in every election, even for the school board. I guess that makes me a voting nut.

“Did you mean “no legitimate strumming purpose?””

I had a friend who had maybe a million guitars, although that might be an exaggeration, prolly closer to 800K. Anyway, we used to play gigs together. He was a Berkley School grad and could play literally anything in any style. We played hoping to be the next big thing, but mostly to pick up chicks. He would pick up the flying ax (which he admitted sounded like crap - bear in mind he has several fender strats, les pauls, hollow body jazz number whose names I just don't know - don't play guitar, don't know much about them) and he'd wheedle and masturbate all over the stage with it and the ladies would sploosh and he'd go home a lucky man. We did this one original that he would use an old classical guitar, I think it was called a Ramirez or Rodriguez, something Spanish like that, to play this really fast, complex and technical intro based on a Bach violin sonata. It was a beautiful song and the audiences loved it, but they would never clap as loudly between the intro and the song proper like they would when he had the ax for a mid-song solo and was spooging fuzzy feedback all over the place.

The ax was for hunting. The old spanish classical for the hoped for illumination of one or two in the audience who were worthy of salvation.
