	Hi Bernie, hmm, a bit tenuous at best ... A link is a link. Some of the fun in this game is the spontaneous link that forms in your mind upon seeing a word. Explaining the link takes the fun out of it. I've often wondered what fun a psychotherapist could have trying to analyze the players here based on these "Word Link" threads..... ____________ Donald Infernal Optimist / Submariner, retired

Then they stamp the vomit in until it is a liquid, usually stamping in a few germs for good measure. Then when it's good and runny they suck it all back again, probably dropping some excrement at the same time. And then, when they've finished eating, it's your turn. ____________

	Need more hints in the landscape game guys? Might answer the question about the fertility god. IIRC the original game said hints at least every 24 hours. ____________

	I have a genuine Fender Stratocaster, Serial E736805. It was made in Japan in the 1980's and the experts believe that the Japanese versions have a better tone than the USA ones. Sadly since my numerous hand operations I cannot play it any more :-((( But it is a treasured possession.

	Nice guitar, Chris:) I also have a Fender but it's no Stratocaster. It's from the Squier series. ____________

	Hi soft, nice guitar :-) 12 strings are an absolute PITA to tune!

	it plays pretty much like a 6 string.. I would not recommend for a lead guitar.. very VERY difficult to bend notes and have it sound good. Some picking patters can sound really nice though. pretty much you play/hit 2 strings at a time. I like the sound. And Chris is right, it is a PITA to tune, especially with 1968 stock tuning gear. ____________ Janice

	Long time since I've heard a twelve string '335 They made them for 3 years total. That one is a 1968. Rickenbacher won that competition and Gibson pretty much gave up on them. ____________ Janice

	That stock tuning gear was a pain even on a six string, so I can imagine what it was like with twelve.... ____________ Bob Smith Member of Seti PIPPS (Pluto is a Planet Protest Society) Somewhere in the (un)known Universe?
