Hehe, only in America, I'm sure.

whoa..cracker land

**ortho** (2006-08-06):

Maybe he meant the ink marker.

Please don't shoot me, I'm only the piano player.

**RexRhino** (2006-08-06):

If my only choices were an upright piano, or a 44 magnum, I'd choose the magnum. I just don't have room for an upright piano, where as the magnum would probably fit pretty well under a winter jacket. The magnum is also louder than the piano.

My immediate interpretation: Failed composer planning suicide.

**Soothsayer** (2006-08-07):

Surprised he didn't offer a trade for weed, that would have been what just about everyone else in Eugene would have done...

**FromSynthToReal** (2006-08-07):

Maybe he needs the .44 Magnum to do impulse recording for his convolution reverb?

**Chris Randall** (2006-08-07):

If he was offering a trade for weed, I could have worked something out pretty easily. A 20-minute walk in the nearby national forest could turn up at least two or three 30-plant crops. Fuckin' Oregon.

I don't have a 44-mag. ("Do you feel lucky, punk?")

So wait, Chris, you're near PDX, but you're buying stuff from Eugene? I saw you picked up that Crumar(if I still lived in Eugene, I might have been competition for you on that), I'd be too lazy to make the commute for most things you see on the Eugene Craigslist, hehe

coincidentally, this just went up today

it must be a conspiracy.

**Chris Randall** (2006-08-08):

I live in a little town called Mill City, which is about 30 miles East of Salem. So I'm almost exactly equidistant between Eugene and Portland. It's an hour fifteen either way. And a shit drive on the Interstate either way, too. I prefer the drive to Portland because, well, it ends in Portland, while Eugene is kind of a shithole.

That said, we're moving to Portland in October, so there'll be no more hitting the Eugene Craigslist.
