Roger,
I live (in case you didn't know) in a Banana Republic known as Louisiana and
everything comes to my shop by boat.  You have to make huge payoffs to every
barge operator and raft pusher from Shreveport south.  Last shipment of
spruce cost me $140, twelve sacks of crawfish, four coons, a pint of
mosquito repellent, and a gallon of gumbo. Anything north of Shreveport IS
Canada! The last time I ordered bass strings the guy at the Atchafalaya
swamp wanted my wife or no bass strings.... The bass in that Steinway
sounded GREAT!!  ;)
