    Overrated guitar players.

    Everyone has an opinion on this subject. Guitar players that are well liked by people in general but you are not really sure why. This is a very touchy subject. Hope I don't offend anyone. How about this list. Joe Perry from Aerosmith. Brian May from Queen. Kirk Hammit sp from Metallica

    Stax Labada pro and the Stax 2020.

    Has anyone heard both? Which is the better sounding? I love the 2020 sound. Are they pretty much the same? I am almost sure they are pretty much the same. I seem to remember the 2020 was supposed to be a improvement over the old labada. Just wondering if anyone has heard both.

    A scam?

    I got a call from a lady who said she was from ancestery.com. It is a legit site. She asked for the last six digits of my credit card number. Is this common practice for web sites when you're membership has expired? This is the first time a company has asked for this from me over the phone. It...

But...

    Ha ha. Insurance companies.

    My brother bought a used 99 mustang a few days ago. He called the insurance company today to set up his insurance costs. They wanted $240 a month in insurance plus $240 down payment right on the spot. A little too much for a 22 year old driver I would say The insurance women was a big bitch...
