    It is a Gold Member after all so you need to treat it as if it was 24 carat.

    I would treat it as if it was 24 Carat Gold, but my Gold membership barely covers it (pun fully intended)....hahahaha...., I'll have to work really hard to earn that Platinum membership, that means living on two-minute noodles for a few more months just so I can get all those frequent-flyer points needed to get that Platinum membership....lol.



    As a side note, this forum has given me plenty of opportunities for exercising my sense of humor, which is something I'm always working on, where would my sanity be without it?....lol.

    When it comes to building guitars, my two cats are my worst critics, Holly's the worst of the two, since she's very pedantic and hard to please, Gengle isn't as pedantic, but he's argumentative, he always thinks he could do better....whatever that means....hahahaha, I tend to take his advice with a pinch of salt...lol.

    Believe me, being a Super-villain is tougher than it sounds, the saying "Crime doesn't pay" is so very apt it's not funny, all the money I make goes into hiring new henchmen, and there's hardly even any left to make any kind of profit-margin, the good-guys get all the girls, prestige, gadgets, etc, that's what I get for hitting the books and getting straight A+ Distinctions in all my subjects in school and college,might see if I can get together the budget to build that retirement hideout on a remote deserted Island that I've always said I'd build, might even create my own Nation, and set up a fair system of Government so that no one has more money than anyone else, of course I'd need some kind of system to prevent any high-level corruption, still working out all the finer details with the Constitution that my own nation would adopt, you know how it is, I'd probably give it a couple hours of deep thought, then decide to just do some seaside fishing while lounging under an umbrella on a secluded beach, sipping the world's finest Pinacoladas, and Daiquiris, while watching Hawaiian dancers and eating coconuts, that old chestnut, oh, I might even do some chestnut-roasting on the beach over a fire, after cooking a hangi....traditional-style, of course, then I can just chill-out and remenice about old times when life was so much simpler.

    And then, out would come a huge plateful of cooked, and battered, oysters, mussels, scallops,succulent fish with salted-chips, the works, and there would be some good feasting.
