A "Circular catch-22"? Is that different from the square version?
Don't you worry someone might read this?
go getem' bigboy!
All true. Your question is a good one worth discussing: is it the stretching of an idea only so large to begin with? Is it laziness? Dunno. I guess that and more depending.
Well you can buy a kit if you want but I've heard that you can't trust the wood in the kits (other people think the kits are fine). Typically the kits come slightly pre-assembled which is good if you don't have much in the way of tools or experience. It is cheaper (and more satisfying I think) to buy the raw parts and do everything yourself (short of casting the metal bits). If you're interested go to www.stewmac.com . They are a luthier supply company and sell everything one would need.
That's an amazing bargain - is like a kit? Horrey cow (a good deal built would be two and a half grand, no?).

Stop stealing from Dilbert!!!! Or Bob the dinosaur will appear and give you a wedgie. :)
Hmmm. I think the pressed shirt imagery is enabling a more literal read than I intended.
'To what business may lead to know thyself,
go on a business trip'.
This poem is meant as the aquisition/appropriation of a tidy concept with the subsequent fragmentation and repackaging into a marketable value added product.
Good God, man! If my Father knew I was running a Poetry-website, you may be certain that a well-embalmed Strap would be forging a path along my buttocks faster than you could say "Shrewsbury Gland". What times we live in; what horrid, horrid times.
Is it true that you are Rockmage's dad? I really liked his sculptures.
P.S.-9-
I know how you feel, I am always jet-setting around the globe: Huddersfiled, Slough, Tunbrige Wells... Boy, it never ends.
Hey, I know we've had our disagreements in the past, but I really liked this poem.

There seem to be a dispropotionate number of poems about bees on this site. I can't complain, I am guilty of it myself. See "Deceit."
love the idea of combonation of Haikus, truly brilliant.
I once knew a person who used to make rubbish .ST3 files on his computer. One of his "tewns" was called "Bored," and then one night he made a remix of it called "Bored 3am." I don't really know why. Anyway, I though this might be of interest to you.
I assume this is the BBC World Service? Do you live in Botswana or something?
Look, I can see where you're coming from. However, you have to take into account the fact that people can change. If nothing else, Kerry King has sprouted a most venerable beard in the years since the terrible travesties of which you speak, and I think this should be held in his favour. And that is to say nothing of his stately beer-belly.
In some ways I agree; Of course, the members of the orchestral group, Slayer, should never have allowed the young men in question to make unbecoming comments in the vicinity of their roving omnibus. Nonetheless, surely they must still be allowed the rein to express themselves? Are we to ban all art because of this indiscretion? Of course not; freedom to express one's self is paramount in a forward thinking society.
I disparove of the police as well, especially the way they try to prevent crimes. But then that's just one of things you have to try to live with. Life's like that, you know?
In 1992 the acclaimed director Nicholas Novi presented Placido Domingo with his handmade egg, decorated with a portrait of Peter The Great.
