    To be honest, I think thread drift is less pronounced on this forum than it is on some others where thread hi-jack is not uncommon.

    May I suggest we place a Lifebuoy on every thread for those who drift a little too far off topic...

    Surely, this thread isn't going to stop here??? We haven't even discussed the possiblity that The Grand Wazoo is an active Interpol agent.
    Lyrics are the ramblings of man, sometimes inspired by The Creator, most often, not.
    But music (melodies, harmonies, rhythms), that's God stuff.
    Always was. Always will be.


    One of the biggest lies ever told was that only certain kinds of people should listen to certain kinds of music.

    Now something like that has been suggested before. News on the subject has been rather patchy of late though.

    No, not Interpol - The Grand Wazoo is a high-level operative for the shadowy organisation MUDSHARK. This is a clandestine outfit whose avowed aim is to secrete the works of Frank Zappa into every lending library in the land.

    Obviously news on this front has been "patchy of late".

    Nothing wrong with thrusting Zappa upon the general population!

    I have to agree

    Thread drift is annoying

    I was half way through a topic on amps
    When the door bell rang

    It was the postman

    I eagerly opened the parcel to find my new slippers

    Nice fit as well , dark blue

    Have to remember to tell everyone not to buy me any for Xmas

    Careful now. You use Quads too. There may be questions about pipes to follow!
