OK, Gilnar, I give up....

I googled "Sysl krysu nenahradi!" and all found was that if you say it backwards at 33 1/3 rpm it sounds like "I am the walrus"....

What's it mean?

It means "Gopher can't replace rat," but it is deliberately written with a typo.

John, is the blue Kent 14" tom a floor tom or a marching snare? What's your take on it? Is it a mess? Are there bearing edges? If you would, post a pic or two, or start a thread!

OK, well, here is the poop on the poop. It is a 13, red sparkle under blue paint. 2 ply maple, and no edge, almost flat, so I cannot sat "no edges"...I am thinking about not paying for it, but that really wouldn't be an honset thing to do. I contacted the seller. Post forthcoming. See "ebay section".

Ok the disease gets worse. I just acquired a really nice 70's oval badge cob dynasonic from a forum member. It is a really cool piece though. It even came with the original rogers vinyl case and owners manual - what else could I do.

Just another tool in the chest I quess and proof positive that there is no cure for the disease.

OK. I think I need an intervention - add a camco oaklawn 20 12 14 blue sparkle kit to the list of really cool gear. Now I need the snare to match or at least a COB. But the disease may officially be terminal at this point
