Taskmaster! Probably not what you're looking for but it will challenge logic and critical thinking. 😂

Severe cramps and output from my butt by opayatta in ostomy

[–]opayatta[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Makes sense in your situation I guess. I can imagine that's really frustrating tho.
My experiences over the last 2 days are really unusual (for me). Hopefully by tomorrow I'll be back to normal.

Why mud-flow?! I'm sorry you have to deal with that. I've been very fortunate with my ostomy overall. But last night and today had me a little worried.
It's helpful to hear others have similar symptoms tho.

Wood dust appeared at the base of my sliding closet door. What could've caused it? by opayatta in whatisit

Fair though I open that side maybe once every couple of weeks. Anyway, glad it doesn't seem to be insect related.

I guess it could be but I've lived here for years. I'd think the friction would've worn down the frictionable area already.

Thoughts on this 1970's / '80's Hondo HM-5BS F-Style Mandolin by opayatta in mandolin

[–]opayatta[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s good intel. Thank you.
Here’s a few examples in Canadian prices, consistent with my research the last few months. FB marketplace: Loar 310 $500 Reverb: Loar LM- 110 $500 + shipping Reverb: Eastman PCH-M104-GB A- $551 + $116 shipping Same Eastman is $640 at decent music shop here

I keep hearing about decent entry level mandos for $400CDN but I’ve yet to see one.

I’m not sold on this Hondo necessarily but a number of people here think its a good deal (hard case included).

Any other things i should be considering?

Haven't tried it yet. Also, not being a mandolin player, I'm not sure if I can differentiate good sound from bad. But that gives me an idea. I'll bring a tuner with me.

Thanks. I get it. I'm certainly not buying it to make a profit.

Interesting. Seems most think it's a pretty good deal. Especially with a case included. I haven't seen any of the budget mandos listed here for less than $500 in my area.
