Elixir strings are the best I have used in my 45 years of music playing.

When is Al Gore going to die instead of a namesake who actually did something useful.

Wait...................you mean it wasn’t invented by Al just before he invented the internet while he and Tipper were being the basis for Love Story?

Well, of course the coats haven’t held up for you.

You’re out there in the woods and the mountains and the snow all the time, trying not to be photographed and if you are photographed it’s with the worst camera possible.
