'My Confession'

Ben Stein

My Confession:

I am a Jew, and every single one of my ancestors was Jewish. And it does not bother me even a little bit when people call those beautiful lit up, bejeweled trees, Christmas trees. I don’t feel threatened. I don’t feel discriminated against. That’s what they are ~ Christmas trees.

It doesn’t bother me a bit when people say, ‘Merry Christmas’ to me. I don’t think they are slighting me or getting ready to put me in a ghetto. In fact, I kind of like it. It shows that we are all brothers and sisters celebrating this happy time of year.

It doesn’t bother me at all that there is a manger scene on display at a key intersection near my beach house in Malibu. If people want a crèche, it’s just as fine with me as is the Menorah a few hundred yards away.

I don’t like getting pushed around for being a Jew, and I don’t think Christians like getting pushed around for being Christians. I think people who believe in God are sick and tired of getting pushed around, period. I have no idea where the concept came from, that America is an explicitly atheist country. I can’t find it in the Constitution and I don’t like it being shoved down my throat. Or maybe I can put it another way: where did the idea come from that we should worship celebrities and we aren’t allowed to worship God, as we understand Him? I guess that’s a sign that I’m getting old, too. But there are a lot of us who are wondering where these celebrities came from and where the America we knew went to.

In light of the many jokes we send to one another for a laugh, this is a little different: This is not intended to be a joke; it’s not funny, it’s intended to get you thinking.

Billy Graham’s daughter was interviewed on the ‘Early Show’ and Jane Clayson asked her ‘How could God let something like this happen?’ (Regarding Hurricane Katrina). Anne Graham gave an extremely profound and insightful response. She said, ‘I believe God is deeply saddened by this, just as we are, but for years we’ve been telling God to get out of our schools, to get out of our government and to get out of our lives. And being the gentleman ‘He’ is, I believe ‘He’ has calmly backed out. How can we expect God to give us His blessing and His protection if we demand He leave us alone?’

In light of recent events... terrorists attack, school shootings, etc., I think it started when Madeleine Murray O’Hare (she was murdered, her body found a few years ago) complained she didn’t want prayer in our schools, and we said OK.

Then someone said you better not read the Bible in school.. The Bible says thou shalt not kill; thou shalt not steal, and love your neighbor as yourself. And we said OK.

Then Dr. Benjamin Spock said we shouldn’t spank our children when they misbehave, because their little personalities would be warped and we might damage their self-esteem (Dr. Spock’s son committed suicide). We said an expert should know what he’s talking about. And we said okay. Now we’re asking ourselves why our children have no conscience. Why they don’t know right from wrong. And why it doesn’t bother them to kill strangers, their classmates, and themselves. Probably, if we think about it long and hard enough, we can figure it out. I think it has a great deal to do with ‘WE REAP WHAT WE SOW.’

Funny how simple it is for people to trash God and then wonder why the world’s going to hell. Funny how we believe what the newspapers say, but question what the Bible says. Funny how you can send ‘jokes’ through e-mail and they spread like wildfire, but when you start sending messages regarding the Lord, people think twice about sharing. Funny how lewd, crude, vulgar and obscene articles pass freely through cyberspace, but public discussion of God is suppressed in the school and workplace.

Are you laughing yet?

Funny how when you forward this message, you will not send it to many on your address list because you’re not sure what they believe, or what they will think of you for sending it. Funny how we can be more worried about what other people think of us than what God thinks of us.

Pass it on if you think it has merit.

If not, then just discard it…

No one will know you did.

But, if you discard this thought process, don’t sit back and complain about what bad shape the world is in.

My Best Regards,
Honestly and respectfully,
Ben Stein

HAPPY 80th BIRTHDAY, DICK CLARK!!!

11/30/2009

Dick Clark, affectionately known as "America's Oldest Teenager," celebrates his 80th birthday today (November 30th). In 2005, Clark returned to his Dick Clark's New Year's Rocking' Eve special after missing the 2004 broadcast, due to a minor stroke which forced him to skip his first broadcast in 32 years. Clark will once again be back in Times Square this year, along with co-host Ryan Seacrest, to ring in 2010. Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve airs on December 31st at on ABC. Check your local listings for stations and times.

Barry Manilow, one of Clark's many longtime friends and supporters, was proud of Clark's quick return to the airwaves following his stroke: "When one of those things hit, they stop you, and he's a real trooper. He's a real trooper. He'd much rather be up there producing this thing than sitting there and I think he was a real trooper."


Clark has played a significant role in helping shape the way America listens to and sees music. Clark was born in Mount Vernon, New York and started his career at age 17 working in radio. By 1952, he was on the air, hosting the Caravan Of Music, a local radio show in Philadelphia. At the time, the station's television affiliate had a teenage dance show called Bandstand, and in 1956, at the age of 26, Dick Clark took over as permanent host of the show.


With Clark's magnetic personality and love of music, the show became the highest rated program in its time slot in the Philadelphia area. These ratings led to the show being picked up by the ABC television network, who distributed it nationally in August 1957 as American Bandstand. The show became wildly popular with teenagers, who finally had an outlet to dance to the newest music and see some of the biggest acts perform live on the show.

Over the course of the show's 30 years, artists who performed on American Bandstand included Frankie Avalon, Bobby Rydell, the Beach Boys, Chubby Checker, Dion & the Belmonts, Buddy Holly, James Brown, Aretha Franklin, the Monkees, Stevie Wonder, the Jackson Five, the Doors, Donna Summer, Hall & Oates, John Cougar Mellencamp, Madonna, and literally hundreds of others.

In 1964, American Bandstand moved to Los Angeles, where it would remain until 1989 when the show was canceled. It was in Los Angeles that Clark established Dick Clark Productions, which over the years has produced everything from music shows, including the American Music Awards, to sitcoms and game shows like the $10,000 Pyramid.

In 1993, Clark was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a non-performer.

American Bandstand became one of television's longest running music series, and the first network series devoted exclusively to rock-and-roll music. A few years ago, Clark explained how much the music scene has improved since the 1950s: "Oh, music is a heck of a lot better these days than it ever was because there's so much choice. In the old days, we got what was delivered to us and the one radio station played everything. Now you can tune to a specific format and get exactly what you want when you want it."


Over the course of the show's 30 years, with the earlier years broadcast from Philadelphia, some of the local artists who guested dozens of times included Frankie Avalon, Bobby Rydell, Chubby Checker, and Fabian.


Chubby Checker says the importance of Dick Clark and American Bandstand should never be overlooked or underestimated: "I went on Bandstand in Philadelphia and sang 'The Twist,' and the world changed that very moment, never to be the same again. American Bandstand is your first MTV, your American Bandstand is your first VH1, your American Bandstand is everything that dancing has become. I always say that Dick Clark's success is Chubby Checker's success. Why is that? Because history took place right on Bandstand and then dancing changed forever, and it never went back to where it was."


Bobby Rydell says that Dick Clark had an uncanny knack of being able to pick his hit singles: "Before 'Kissin' Time' came out, Bernie Lowe, the owner of the company would take dubs of my first three recordings and Dick would listen to them and he would say, 'No, it's not in the grooves.' And finally Bernie Lowe brought the dub down of kissin' Time' and Dick played the record and Dick said, 'This is a hit.' And then the record came out, Dick started playing it, y'know, on his TV show -- on Bandstand -- and the response to that it immediate!"


Fabian remembered that auditioning for the host of American Bandstand was a somewhat intimidating experience: "Dick was a, and still is, a very interesting guy. He wouldn't let just anybody on his show, you know, so you had to go for an interview with him first. And he had to hear the record and he played it right in front of you (laughs) and then you would get the OK or you wouldn't get the OK. And I was so young, I didn't know what all that meant, but I do now, and he was very excited and I guess there was something about me that he liked."


Some time ago, Clark said that he's proud to have been part of so many people's New Year's memories: "I've always felt very honored to be connected with people's New Years because in all honesty, it's like being invited to somebody's Bar Mitzvah or wedding -- it's a very personal experience."

Thanks to "One call to City Hall" go to Linda D. Gonzalez for making November 30th officially Dick Clark Day!!! There was a celebration today as a "star" for the legend was "re-planted" on Sunset and Vine in honor of his 80th birthday and his great contribution to bringing many now famous musical artists into the limelight.

Please Get into the Habit

of

Checking Your Receipts


Before You Walk Out Of Any Store

OR

Before you Leave the Cash Register/Till

Especially with Holidays Coming Up


It happened at Wal-Mart (Supercenter Store #1279, 10411 N Freeway 45,
Houston, TX 77037 a month ago.

I bought a bunch of stuff, over $150, & I glanced at my receipt as the cashier was handing me the bags. I saw a cash-back of $40. I told her I didn't request a cash back & to delete it.

She said I'd have to take the $40 because she couldn't delete it.

I told her to call a supervisor.

Supervisor came & said I'd have to take it.

I said NO!

Taking the $40 would be a cash advance against my Discover (Card) & I wasn't paying interest on a cash advance!!!!!

If they couldn't delete it then they would have to delete the whole order. So the supervisor had the
cashier delete the whole order & re-scan everything!

The second time I looked at the electronic pad before I signed & a cash-back of $20 popped up.

At that point I told the cashier & she deleted it.

The total came out right.

The cashier agreed that the electronic pad must be defective.

Obviously the cashier knew the electronic pad was defective because she NEVER offered me the $40 at the beginning.

Can you imagine how many people went through before me & at the end of her shift how much money she pocketed?

Just to alert everyone.

My co worker went to Milford, DE Wal-Mart last week. She had her items rung up by the cashier. The cashier hurried her along and didn't give her a receipt.

She asked the cashier for a receipt and the cashier was annoyed and gave it to her.

My co worker didn't look at her receipt until later that night.

The receipt showed that she asked for $20 cash back!

SHE DID NOT ASK FOR CASH BACK!

My co-worker called Wal-Mart who investigated but could not see the cashier pocket the money. She then called her niece who works for the bank and her niece told her this. This is a new scam going on. The cashier will key in that you asked for cash back and then hand it to her friend who is the next person in line.

Please, please, please check your receipts right away when using credit or debit cards! This is NOT limited to Wal-Mart, although they are the largest retailer so they have the most incidents.

I am adding to this.

My husband and I were in Wal-Mart North Salisbury and paying with credit card when my husband went to sign the credit card signer he just happen to notice there was a $20 cash back added.

He told the cashier that he did not ask nor want cash back and she said this machine has been messing up and she cancelled it.

We really didn't think anything of it until we read this email.

I wonder how many people have been, or will be, "stung" by this one????

To make matters worse ...

THIS SCAM CAN BE DONE ANYWHERE, AT ANY RETAIL OR WHOLESALE LOCATION!!!

More Swine Flu Information

On October 30th,2009

Editors of local papers in Kyiv, Ukraine received a flood of phone calls from citizens reporting low flying aircraft spraying an unknown aerosolized substance over L'viv, Ternopil and other cities.

On October 27th

The Ukrainian media broke the story that on October 26th"in Ternopil an unknown flu had killed seven people , and that over the past few days about 6 thousand people had sought out medical attention in regards to flu like symptoms.

From this first report through to the 9th"of November over 1 million people inside the Ukraine people have contracted some form of flu like illness.

This is almost double the number of 'confirmed' H1N1 cases worldwide in all other countries. There have also been over 155 deaths reported due to influenza during this time.

This outbreak is unprecedented yet it has received minimal coverage in the western media. It just seemed to get lost amidst all of the swine flu coverage, and written off as just more cases of H1N1 before any lab samples had been processed.

In the Ukrainian and Russian media however the outbreak has been treated more seriously and has been referred to as 'pneumonic plague'.

On October 29th a report came out of Ukraine describing the deaths of 6 young people in the Ivano-Frankivsk Oblast. "After the autopsies were performed it was recorded that the cause of death in these individuals was "severe hemorrhagic pneumonia".

Also unconfirmed reports from bloggers in the Western Ukraine that doctors were seeing that this was a new form a flu that killed much faster than the regular H1N1 virus. "Soon Ukrainians started to panic, and the stores emptied of masks and all forms of flu medication.

Even onions, garlic, and lemons became scarce in so me cities. As a countermeasure to this outbreak 9 Oblasts (cities) were placed under quarantine by the government.

The WHO sent a team of experts to take samples of this new flu and send them back to the Mill Hill lab in
London to determine the gene sequences of this flu, and to discover if this was in fact the same Californian/Mexican A/H1N1 virus.

On November 3rd the WHO announced that the samples had been received at Mill Hill, yet almost a week later there have been no reports issued and no gene sequence data released. If these were typical samples it seems that an announcement would have been made already. "The silence is deafening".

It should also be noted that rumors of the doctors being told not to disseminate any information about the new flu cases that would incite any panic, were later confirmed by statements made by the Ukrainian government that police have been told to confiscate hospital reports on patients who have recently contracted the flu." All things
considered, it would not be a surprise if this unidentified virus turned out to be far more serious than the mild A/H1N1 circulating the globe.

Two unconfirmed reports, one in 2002 and one in 2009 by alleged government insiders revealed that at some point that live 1918 Spanish flu would be released on a large scale in the form of a vaccine, for the purpose of mass genocide.

The August 2009 report by Joseph Moshe revealed that he was involved with Baxter in a plan to release the 1918 virus in the Ukraine. Not only was it confirmed that he was a microbiologist, his claim was also substantiated by the current Ukrainian outbreak. After a number of deaths in September the Ukrainian government"banned the use of the H1N1 vaccine.

This would make it quite difficult to release the 1918 virus as described by Joseph Moshe.

It now seems as though the vaccine ban will be lifted and h1n1 vaccines will be forced on the people of Ukraine.

On November 9th the Globe and Mail published a story that revealed, despite"previous claims"by the Ukrainian Government that they had not authorized the use of aerosolized medication on the public as a response to the outbreak, that they in fact "sprayed the city with thenecessary products".

Was this in fact medication or disinfectant? If so why would the government deny this? "Was the spraying in fact a
release of the mystery flu? Was the original intention to release it via the vaccine? Was the aerosol release the plan B after the Ukrainian government banned the use of the vaccine?

A blog post from a Lviv resident claimed that his mother who works for the city council received a text message the night of Oct 29th from a colleague warning her to keep her windows closed as something was to be sprayed. The context wasn't crystal clear.

It could have been a warning regarding a street disinfecting procedure as is often done during typhoid outbreaks.

The government's denial is not irrefutable proof of a bio-attack, but it is suspicious.

As reported by SkyWatch Canada on September 15th , the frequency of low flying aircraft with unusual flight patterns have caught the attention of Canadians living in the Nation's Capital. Is there a chance that Canadians are being acclimated to these types of flight patterns for a future bio-release?

In 1994 such an event took place in the town of Oakville, Washington where there were confirmed reports of a clear gel like substance raining form the sky and making residents horribly ill.

Readers should also be reminded of the report given on the Power Hour radio show in March 2009, about truckloads of "bird flu" being delivered throughout America to underground missile silos orchestrated by the department of homeland security.

Several of those loads were delivered into the back of a military C-130 (an aircraft often equipped with an aerosol dispersal system). Was this multi-million dollar operation conducted for the purpose of spreading the mild and basically insignificant H1N1 demi-flu?

Or has the final phase of the operation yet to occur?

Has the event to justify the recent American National Emergency yet to occur? Will the CDC finally make use of their scores of mass graves and plastic caskets? Will the
military be deployed to put the country under pandemic lockdown, as we have seen in the Ukraine?

Far too much has been put into the H1N1 fiasco for it to amount to a mere outbreak of the common cold.

It seems like many pieces of a plan have been put in place.

Will the NWO put the people in check? Will the virus 'Mutate'?

Is this the beginning of the Globalist Endgame of population reduction?

There are reports now coming from Romania, India, Bulgaria, Belarus, Turkey, Norway that the rate on increase of flu is increasing rapidly.

In Norway foe example 300,000 residents contacted the flu in a single week. Whatever disease has been released is moving across Europe fast. This bug has spread too widely to be a Ukrainian election scam.

Readers should note that just before the outbreak in Ukraine, the government was running pneumonic plague drills.

In early November, there were also pneumonic plague drills being run in Illinois.

Connect the dots.

Notable there have also been reports of heavy supply and personnel movement in and out of known D.U.M.B.s (Deep Underground Military Bases) very recently.

According to an unconfirmed report the parking lots of these bases are full and haven't been this full since just after 911.

What is going on?

Will this fast moving disease be released in America?

Listen for low flying aircraft.

Shut your windows at night.

Stock up on colloidal silver, antibiotics and high quality vitamins.

Please watch the skies!

Swine Flu Information

Sent in to www.InTouchRadio.net UK

Dr. Vinay Goyal is an MBBS,DRM,DNB (Intensivist and Thyroid specialist) having clinical experience of over 20 years. He has worked in institutions like Hinduja Hospital , Bombay Hospital , Saifee Hospital , Tata Memorial etc. Presently, he is heading our Nuclear Medicine Department and Thyroid clinic at Riddhivinayak Cardiac and Critical Centre, Malad (W).

The following message given by him, I feel makes a lot of sense and is important for all to know

The only portals of entry are the nostrils and mouth/throat. In a global epidemic of this nature, it's almost impossible to avoid coming into contact with H1N1 in spite of all precautions. Contact with H1N1 is not so much of a problem as proliferation is.

While you are still healthy and not showing any symptoms of H1N1 infection, in order to prevent proliferation, aggravation of symptoms and development of secondary infections, some very simple steps, not fully highlighted in most official communications, can be practiced (instead of focusing on how to stock N95 or Tamiflu):

1. Frequent Hand Washing (well highlighted in all official communications).

2. "Hands-off-the-face" approach. Resist all temptations to touch any part of face (unless you want to eat, bathe or slap).

3. *Gargle twice a day with warm salt water (use Listerine if you don't trust salt). *H1N1 takes 2-3 days after initial infection in the throat/ nasal cavity to proliferate and show characteristic symptoms. Simple gargling prevents proliferation. In a way, gargling with salt water has the same effect on a healthy individual that Tamiflu has on an infected one. Don't underestimate this simple, inexpensive and powerful preventative method.

4. Similar to 3 above, *clean your nostrils at least once every day with warm salt water. *Not everybody may be good at Jala Neti or Sutra Neti (very good Yoga asanas to clean nasal cavities), but *blowing the nose hard once a day and swabbing both nostrils with cotton buds dipped in warm salt water is very effective in bringing down viral population.*


5. *Boost your natural immunity with foods that are rich in Vitamin C (Amla and other citrus fruits). *If you have to supplement with Vitamin C tablets, make sure that it also has Zinc to boost absorption.

6. *Drink as much of warm liquids (tea, coffee, etc) as you can. *Drinking warm liquids has the same effect as gargling, but in the reverse direction. They wash off proliferating viruses from the throat into the stomach where they cannot survive, proliferate or do any harm.

I suggest you pass this on to your entire e-list. You never know who might pay attention to it - and STAY ALIVE because of it.

Musical Notes from Michael Dixon

Hi Everyone

Recently I was asked to photograph my Guitar and Bass Collection.

Collection is really an
over-statement - there are only a two guitars and five basses.

In a previous Blog I put up the very rare Kramer 'Marilyn Munroe' Beretta Graphic bodied 1988 guitar signed and dated by Kramer's own 'Klini'. The Kramer has never been played and was purchased as a Limited Edition investment.

Prior to his 'untimely' death a friend, the late John Entwistle of The Who, had made moves to buy it from me. He and his lovely (C.L.) wife Lisa had been suggesting that John buy it.

Of John all I have are memories and a pair of his hand-lasted boots, which I cherish.

I was asked by an InTouchRadio contact if I could check the date of my Hofner 500/1 Violin Bass so he could work out how to date his.

The Hofner 'Violin' or 500/1 Bass Guitar is usually associated with The Beatles and of course Sir Paul McCartney. The model he used from the early 1960's would become known as the 'Cavern' Bass.

To be truthful I hadn't even considered checking my 500/1 bass before but when I checked the Volume 'Pots' (see further down pics), which are attached to the 'pearloid' Control Panel I became concerned.

I believed the bass to come from the mid to late 60's and having played Hofner from 1963 on had no reason to think otherwise. The person I purchased it from in the late 198o's had it under his bed in its case for over 10 years. The previous owner had hardly used it and it too had been stored - though I was told that he had been a well known 'right-handed' musician and would have gigged the bass.

This bass has just been dated by Hofner Germany
Late 1960's (1967-8)


The usual method of dating Hofners by serial number is almost impossible as most non UK (Selmer, London Importers required Hofner to put serial numbers I believe on for the UK market) models were never given a serial number giving cause for concern over actual dating.

Another method to date Hofners is by Pickup arrangement and by Pickup type.

(John Penfold helped pay for my first Bass Guitar - a 'Broadway' from Tin Pan Alley, London
for the princely sum of £7 GBP in 1962 - it had no case and we had to walk part way home to Windsor as we had run out of money!)


I took the bit between my teeth as I was not able to date my 500/1's Volume Pots; they had an out-of-sequence numbering (apparently this did happen with some Hofner's and Hofner also came out with other production variants).

My 'Pot' numbers sent me into a bit of a panic.

An example of 'Pot' dating: 236 = 23rd week of 1966.

Mine were 706 - there is no week 70 in 1966 and the type of pickup 'Blade' on mine was introduced, I'm told, in late 1966, but is accepted as 1967.

Without further ado I contacted the Hofner factory in Germany via their very well organised web site. I took the liberty of attaching several photographs pointing out my concerns and showing as much pictorial information as possible to help identify dating.

Within a couple of days I received an email from Hofner's Guitar Production Manager, Graham Stockley with the following:

This is a late sixties bass. It’s difficult to be more accurate with the old Hofners. We have a website here www.vintagehofner.co.uk which explains the differences in the models.

The dates inside the body were usually only found in the 50’s & early 60’s models and Hofner didn’t use serial numbers. The English market was served by Selmer and these instruments have serial numbers but the majority of instruments made were for sale elsewhere in the world and had no serial numbers.

It looks like the pots have been changed. The originals should have a fiber board underneath but this being Hofner that’s not always true J

Regards

Graham Stockley

Guitar Product Manager

Relief - I hadn't believed it to be later, a simple eye test of the aging of the finish, colour, the neck and 'feel'.

Whilst checking the 'Pot' numbers I had stripped
out the pickups and checked inside the body for any signatures or dating, which Graham later pointed out in his email only occured on much earlier models.

With reference to Graham's observation regarding the possible replacement of the 'Pots' and 'Switches' any guitar that is used regularly, or not, the Volume Pots and Sliders can break down and go 'crackley' - the only way is to change them, even if cleaned they are liable to go back to the 'snap, crackle and pop' as the carbon rings age and continue to break down.

It often seems that when the Pots were changed it might have been easier to replace the whole Control Panel, which makes sense as the Sliders get the same issues with age and wear and this 500/1 could well have had it's Control Panel replaced.

As I removed the Control Panel to check the 'Pot' numbers I noticed that the little very fine 'earth' wire that connects from the jack socket to the tailpiece had broken off.

Out came the soldering iron, I found some original 'lead' solder and I proceeded to re-attach the wire, which was just too short!



40+ Years of Playing
Still Good Nothing Needed Yet
1967/8 Hofner 500/1 Violin Bass


What to do next?

A few expletives later I searched through my drawers looking for 'fuse' wire, which this 'earth' wire seemed to be made of. No luck. Who uses fuse wire these days!

Next plan I found an old 'top E' string - too thick, even 9 gauge!

The mind does strange things when the unexpected happens and I started another panic mode I didn't want to leave the bass in bits.

Then I remembered - somewhere I had some 1960's unused Rotasound Banjo Strings, can you believe with Eric Clapton's picture on the front cover.

I had no choice but to use one of the fine top strings off a '5-String Banjo Set'...
Ah well, I'm unlikely to be playing a '5-String Banjo' in the near future so I set to with the wire cutters.

Strings n' Things - I reckon I should start up a shop! I could with all the 'squirreled' memorabilia I have in box after box with the idea that 'one day...' and yes that day had arrived.

It worked a treat.

Right gauge, popped it on, with a little detour to take the 'earth' through the tiny hole of the tailpiece and then went behind to wrap around the post that holds the guitar strap.

This way the string was longer but with two attachment points rather than one, which was a very 'Heath Robinson' setup wrapping round a tiny screw in the tailpiece.

We have to remember this is an early guitar, made before today's electronic 'health & safety' madness.

My guess for this so-called 'Madness' is that it goes back to those few who gave their all in the days when there was no 'Safety Earth' in the village halls and dance venues that had been built before the idea of portable 'electrical' music and technology's advancement over primitive electrical systems.

Trust me I know, have seen one of our band hit his lip on a Reslo ribbon mic whilst playing guitar and he took off like a 14 stone rocket... he was ok though just very white when we got to him, his eyes still rolling and hair like he'd just had the latest perm: other's would have put it down to too much drugs and rock n roll.

We can laugh at those times now but life-threatenly dangerous!

later. Hofner concur - but normal with use.

All finished I thought 'A great job, neat and tidy'.

Pickups gently back in place and lightly screwed in.

Finally put the Control Panel back and screwed carefully as not to stress the wood.

Tuner out -I brought the strings back into tune after adjusting the 'floating' Hofner wooden bridge with its twin roller wheels (that takes me back to my earliest guitars and basses, especially the non-fixed bridges - so tuning was always very ... close shall we say and yet my Hofners all stayed excellently in tune!

Had a cup of tea, actually I'm lying it was a Vodka & Russian, I needed it - believe me I did.

De-stress time.

Quick plug in to the Ashdown rig and check out the scaling for any out of tune string length adjustments on the bridge and make sure no fret buzz.

'Great. Bloody great!', the words shot out of my bedroom studio.

Nothing - Zero. 'Got to be the guitar lead - is the amp plugged in - are the speakers connected - has this Vodka done something to the hearing...?'

I tried every combination of switches. The Hofner Control Panels can be buggers - one switch out and no sound!

Then the thought 'have I broken something? Did I loosen a wire when I gave the connections a quick re-solder? 'Sod!'

By now my patient partner was no longer patient.

The solder points ok no 'dry joints'.

I went back into the other room - touched the 'live' end of the guitar lead - yep there was an audible signal that made me nearly have a heart attack. I'd been turning up the volume whilst testing the Hofner.

I'd pulled the cable - the correct thing to do before turning off.

What next?

I grabbed my electric 'Test Meter' - checked the battery was good and that it was working.

No problem there.

Went back to the Hofner and tested out the jack socket - tip to earth - a short!

How could it be shorting out?

I followed the circuit - everything ok. No solder shorts. No dry joints and yet a short!

I was puzzled and then I realised what I'd done. I'd taken the outside ring of the jack socket assuming it to be the earth - it was the 'tip'. What a relief and stress all at the same time.

Relief that it was something so simple.

Stress that I had to get the whole soldering iron kit and case back out.

I'm so glad I put the extra length of that 'banjo' wire as I had plenty ot re-solder it to the correct 'earth' point on the jack socket.

Job all done and the whole reassembled I thought - check first before putting away the kit again.

She fired up straight away.

I then put everything away much to the relief of my partner, she went back to watching TV and I plugged back into the Ashdown.

Now this is going to sound nuts but I tell you the Hofner sounded better than ever. Tight and responsive - that beautiful wooden sound that only Hofners have.

I also have a Guild B4 - a beautiful bass. Large and acoustic - pickup of course but loudly acoustic. It's a 1994 model but you know, in my opinion the Hofner's warmth is much better.

The reasons I feel are: the age of the pickups - the age of the wood, the type of wood and the playability of the Hofner Violin with its short scale and 'feel'. Nothing else quite sounds or plays like a Hofner 500/1.

I would qualify one point - early Fender Precisions have that dull thudding solid muted bass sound of the 60's - think early Tamla and listen to any of those tracks. It's more of a 'fixed' Donald 'Duck' Dunn sound of Booker T' & The MG's and of course the 1960's engineers' idea of what the bass sound and placement in the mix, working to a manual literally by the book. A white-coated mechanical attitude to the instruments: Guitar No.2 - Vocals No. 4 - Bass No. 3 - Drums No. 2 - hence the dullness.

This little Hofner sits right where it should in the mix, with clarity top highs and bottom lows. Ok different strings would change the sound ie with flat wounds, but with the right wire wounds I love her - I'm thinking of investing in some of the 60's type black nylon wrapped strings, I know it'll cut the top but I want to see how low can she go...?

Hofner I would love to have a modern version just to see if the Hofner teams have managed to better a recipe that's now matured for the past 50 plus years!

One Scandinavian Award
Barack Obama
Won't Be Claiming
From ITR's Leila in Toronto, Canada
STOCKHOLM, Sweden — It wasn't the Nobel Peace Prize but this is one Scandinavian award Barack Obama won't be claiming.
Sweden's parliament honoured David Suzuki with the Right Livelihood Award on Tuesday, an international award also known as the alternative Nobel Prize, for his environmental work.
Suzuki was celebrated for his "lifetime advocacy of the socially responsible use of science, and for his massive contribution to raising awareness about the perils of climate change and building public support for policies to address it."
Coincidentally both the award and Suzuki are celebrating 30th anniversaries, the latter as host of CBC's popular series The Nature of Things.
"For me, this award further recognizes the urgency of climate change and the need for global co-operation to solve one of the greatest challenges of our lifetime," Suzuki said.
He shares with three other recipients an award supporting those "offering practical and exemplary answers to the most urgent challenges facing us today."
The award ceremony in the Swedish Parliament will be held Dec. 4.

Kramer Bereta

'Marilyn Munroe'

Graphic Guitar

'1988'



Full Body Marylin Munroe
© '88
'Klini'

By Michael Dixon:

After so many inquiries regarding my bass and guitar collection I am going to post some blogs. This is not a large collection, it was once but many have found new homes and new places to stay.

I can be contacted through www.InTouchRadio.net's web site or info@InTouchRadio.net

Michael


This is my 1988 Signed Kramer 'Beretta' Graphic series 'Marilyn Munroe' Guitar.

My late great friend the famous John Entwistle of The Who had been showing great interest in this guitar back in the 1990's when my son Simon used to see and play with him at his home.

John was an avid collector of guitars and basses, I know, I with Simon, often helped him moved those instruments to or from the attic of his cunbrious house, Quarwood, Stow Hill, Stow on the Wold, Gloucestershire.

John made an offer, as he knew this would be a future collectors' items, I often wonder if I had sold it to him what would have happened after his untimely death in 2002 on that fateful American tour.

Lisa (Pritchett-Johnson
his common law wife) had been with him and believed the 'Marilyn Munroe' to be an investment, she should have known having had her own guitar business (she was also the ex-girl friend of Joe Walsh of The Eagles). Lisa died in 2005 just after inheriting part of John's estate; I liked Lisa for her honesty and her love for John especially after she brought him to me on John's mother Queeny's suggestion for healing, I also come from a family of seers and healers. Now they are together once again.

On a final note to John - I have a pair of his boots, which I cherish. They fit but I can't wear them, I'd rather have him back but he's now up there with 'Moonie' - every time you hear thunder, that's them...

'Klini'


When I purchased this, from Banbury Music in 1988/9 from Marc he told me this was a Rare guitar, it was only one of 12 made. Two had come to Europe and Roland had the other. This had inadvertantly been destroyed on a photo shoot and suggested I purchase it for the future.

It has never been played only tuned, strum to check tuning and after 15 years a change of strings as the originals had started to deteriorate.

The headstock follows the famous Kramer 'Banana' shape - this is the 1988 shape and it is confirmed without any issues to the various changes that Kramer went through by the inclusion of 'Klini's' Signature and Copyright © Date 1988.

As with all modern and vintage guitars the metal bolts and screw heads have very light rusting - it happens as the oxygen and water in the air combine on open metal surfaces but in no way affects the instrument.

The 'Marilyn Munroe' had been stored in a brute of a case - a yellow sealed flight with huge metal clips, which I sold and replaced it with a new case shown.

The 'Marilyn Munroe's' neck is rosewood on maple and is as it was when new.
