          Just making sure my CatMath commutative and distributive properties were in order:

          cat + circle = circle + cat = big round pussy

          cat(square + circle) = squarepussy + roundpussy = chubbypussyinabox

        • 2010 April 21

          Very good MS, but remember that multiplication is not commutative under CatMath:

          cat x circle = roundpussy

          circle x cat = Bea Arthur

    Thank goodness it’s not a music symbol, because $250 for a treble clef or a sharp seems kind of steep.

    My musical instrument knowledge is more guitar-oriented, and the only two cymbal brands I can think of off of the top of my head are Zildjian and Paiste … neither of which feature a “K” in their names. Can anyone corey on whether this actually is a “special” or custom Zildjian? Their name is usually rendered in a calligraphic style, so a K that looks like something from a Kmart sign makes one wonder.

    I am totally tempted to call my cousin, a drummer, and ask him about this. He’s the sort who, if I explained, would actually be amused by the question.

      I think it’s Zildjian’s K series cymbal line … or at least that’s what I can parse out of the ad.

      Since the K series corey is taken I will add my useless knowldge that in addition to the aforementioned, there is also Sabien (might be spelled Sabian, not.a.drummer) which is the company that was born out of a split between the Zildjian owners. Apparently Sabien still makes the originals but Zildjian remains preferred because of the name.
      Blame my drummer husband for this useless nugget.

          Meredith, you must always keep spare tacos in your taco box for situations such as this. At the very least, always be prepared and keep extra stuffings for tacos – then if you don’t have a taco shell, you can fill some other object with the fillings – like an ice cream cone.

          Mmmm- Taco cones, when just one won’t fill you up!

          You know… a corn tortilla would convert rather readily into a waffle-style cone if said tortilla was of appropriate size. And it would solve the problem that hard shell tacos have with holding all their ingredients during crunch initiation…

          The [corey] in me insists.
          Well, “Waco” (wha KOh)was the name pf a large, semi-disposable glider in WWII.
          Not very colurific as it was a olive green sort of color, but with distinctive black-and-white “invasion stripes” on wings and fuselage.
          Not very “punchy” though. The McClendon Co seat is a bit colorful, it being wildflower season, the pollen counts possibly making some reach for their cymbalta.

          City of Waco (WAY coh) Texas has both nice taco joints and the home of Dr Pepper, and is a bit wacky on days ending in “y”. The Waco (pro. unkn.) in Kentucky is home to a travel trailer museum IIRC, which likely counts for wacky. If not cymbolic.

So they’re right about that, and, as Dan pointed out, they correctly manage to spell Zildjian, which, when I first saw them, I couldn’t even pronounce correctly – but the rest of the ad is a mess.

          Dan noted that, in fact, he had pointed it out to her, even though she typed in his pointing-out, and wondered if you were stalking them;

          To clarify, I was just speculating on the reasons for drmk’s point that the specs are correct, but little else is; I wasn’t implying that her post was badly written. I think that was pre-coffee … and roughly the time Dan posted, and I didn’t realize it.
          I began the day insufficiently caffeinated, encountered a potential problem at work that left me nauseatedly adrenalized with fear until it was (PHEW) fixed and no longer an issue, and now I and my low blood sugar are modifying the coffee IV to take a whiskey bottle. I’m pleasantly surprised that I’m still coherent at this point! I’ll be in the living room* with whiskey and nachos (and probably chocolate) if anyone wants to join me.

          Nope. “Kuldesac” is not only French, but the translation of such is, uh, the anterior portion of oneself. We tried to get Norman the architect to suggest building the new government offices on a Kuldesac, but he was afraid to do so.

    I think this was an explanation. He was hit with a stick by a professional, and made a big bang sound. Now he can no longer spell, and he has a fear of sticks, so he must sell off his drum set piecemeal.

    Also, he’s a big fan of “Wicked”. Hence ‘colorifacations’.

    For whatever reason, I was noticing the background of the photo … considering the white scribbles, lotion bottles, automotive vehicles, bees, and sundry irrelevant items that we often see, this photo seems surprisingly coherent. The guy on the right in the background has what looks like it might be a Rickenbacker bass and the left looks like it might have … vinyl records? Was this item, even with its poor composition (and mysteriously correctly-spelled words), actually featured in a photograph with a subject-appropriate background?

    So Sparky thinks that someone out there is willing to pay that much for a cymbal and understands the significance of Zildjian but needs to be told what shape a cymbal is and how it is played? I wouldn’t be surprised to learn that Sparky was selling off an ex’s or evicted tenant’s stuff.
