Frank, your taste in music is impeccable. Musician's taste tend to parallel your's, as the music we've been talking about is probably some of the finest ever performed. It takes a real discerning ear to judge the difference between what the record companies have been throwing at the public and...
Well.... The Mini will be for sale very soon. It has a Bill Richards motor (he's well known in the UK for his A+ motors) putting out some significant umph. The tranny is built to handle it. The suspension has been modified such that it handles like it's on rails. It was converted to a Cooper S...
Nice 5!
I just sold my 1982 320i - I got it with only 70k on the clock and drove the snot out of it for about 2 years. What a fun car to drive, by far one of my favorites of all the cars I've owned (and that list is LONG and heavily populated by German cars)
I recently got a 1992 735i -...
I use mine while fueling and before starting the first time for the day. I'll use it again when starting if I've been sitting more than 15 minutes.
I will confess though - I rarely go the full recommended 4 minutes before starting.
I have seen boats melt due to not using the blower and...
I am a HUGE Susan Tedeschi fan! Shemekia Copeland is another, along with Deborah Coleman and of course Etta James. I've backed a few female blues singers for a lot of the last ten years.
For some great piano work, check out David Hazeltine. He's the closest thing to Gene H I've heard yet...

I have kind of a weird taste in music, but Here's 5 artists most people haven't heard but should:
Gene Harris - Jazz piano at its absolute finest (hard bop, if you know the difference)
Robben Ford...
As I understand it, Sea Ray changed the way they measured length for all Sea Rays in 1992 so a 1991 "270" = 1992 "290" - it had to do with whether or not you included the swim platform and the government changed the rules back then.
I just did this - I replaced the faucets in the galley and the head with Franke and Price Pfister faucets that look and work way better than the the 'spec home' versions that I had in there.
Browse the faucets at Home Depot or Lowes and see if you can find something you like. As stated...
Update: I just picked up a Zodiac Cadet C310S - the difference is night and day in terms of quality. It was considerably more $ but worth it, IMHO. The oar locks are as solid as they could be. This weekend I'll pop my newly acquired Eska 7.0 (Don't laugh - $50 doesn't get you a whole lot these...
