Me neither, it's especially hard around the buttons and collars of shirts

In defense of Danny and the reporting of Appletree (I can't believe I'm doing this), my brother and father both had blockages that were very bad, both had minor heart attacks because of them. Within a month of getting stents they were back to splitting wood, gardening, bee keeping, bicycling etc, in other words normal life, at least for a time.
QUOTE(sister @ Oct 19 2007, 01:00 PM) Appletree, first you are telling us how grave Danny's heart problem is and now you are telling us that he will be working construction on his own new house? Interesting... |

QUOTE(appletree @ Oct 15 2007, 07:09 PM) I beg to differ. Read your history as you all like to say here. I believe it was on the ASI threads that Pickle and Joy stated they were Linda's representatives. Sugar coated and change the wording all you want, but it's there in black and white. I specifically told Harold Lance in writing during our discussions that I was not part of "Linda's team." |

QUOTE(SoulEspresso @ Oct 19 2007, 04:10 PM) These guys just aren't very good at irony, God bless 'em ... Well at least Ian tried and I found some of it very amusing. Loved the word picture of Ellen White running around carrying a 50 pound Bible over her head everywhere she went, and the thought of Shellie dressed in an EGW costume with one very well muscled arm was too good. A funny caricature. Couldn't help but bring up the enema thing. There was a joke amongst the 3ABN employees about one of the doctors who appeared regularly on 3ABN. "Don't bend over around this doc. There is a bag full of enemas for everything: dishwater enemas, charcoal emenas, oatmeal enemas... LOL! You will end up with something scary being put where the sun don't shine." If you have watched "The Road to Wellville" it gets better. |

I guess you're right about the EGW costume. I knew a guy (yeah!) that planned to go as her for Halloween a few years back. But he was way more heathen than anyone on these boards.
You're right about the blessing, tho. Road to Wellville's in our Netflix queue, btw. -------------------- "The entire world is falling apart because no one will admit they are wrong." -- Don Miller, Blue Like Jazz. |

QUOTE(LaurenceD @ Oct 18 2007, 10:52 PM) I liked Joel's answer... "you don't have a 1966 0028C, you have a 1968 0028C. They made it it 1968." Actually, Joel is incorrect and Danny is correct. According to the serial number, it is a 1966. Now back to where you were.... Jeff |

There's "heathen" in the BSDA sense, in which people have taken on non-traditional views vs. conservative Adventism, and there's the heathen in the more literal sense of not knowing God. I meant the latter, sorry for the lack of clarity. -------------------- "The entire world is falling apart because no one will admit they are wrong." -- Don Miller, Blue Like Jazz. |

Jeff Sherlock Holmes and the Case of the Misstated Martin  You may be correct. Perhaps, there are some later 1968 0028C guitars with different serial numbers that Joel was considering. GaryJB at this site says: I always loved Mandolin Brothers, Mike...Over the years I bought a 1968 Martin 0028C from there, a 1966 D18, a new OM28, and a Collings OM 1. http://p082.ezboard.com/Went-to-Mandolin-B...picID=112.topic |

Yeah Panama, Mandolin Bros. is a good place to sell, they're a little over priced for buying IYAM. I've talked to Stan Jay (owner) several times over the years. The guy who really knows his stuff though is George Gruhn in Nashville. Very realistic with his appraisals.
Whether '66 or '68, here's a '67 0028C in execllent condition that actually sold for $2399 at L.A. Guitar Sales. http://www.laguitarsales.com/pages/3230/mfg/11/ Not sure where the 9K is coming from. Sounds a little unrealistic, but not suprised considering the source. -------------------- Disclaimer Notice: You are hereby cautioned that the information contained within these posts are for the sole purpose of provoking thought, adding fair comment on matters of public interest, and not providing factual information.

We had the Road to Wellville in our Netflix queue a few months ago. Then a couple of months later on the Biography Channel, the program was about John Harvey Kellogg. Very Interesting. The movie is extremely accurate, at least in comparison to the Biography program. I would be interested in your opinion. I just wish you could see the other program as well. |

An amazing story. As an old Weimartian I had the collection of J.H. Kellog books, and studied them.
