You keep going back, so he has you as a repeat customer. Win-win!

My dad has bought most of his cars from him, and we have bought most of ours from him as well. His generosity definitely pays off in repeat business.

He is literally your dealer.

We bought Eve's 300 from a private party, and we will being going back to that dealer for our next purchase. We have not had the best of luck with private party purchases.

Have you had troubles with the 300?

**Iago** Fri May 27, 2011 11:36 am

We put some repairs into it, some of which were related to the fact that it had been in a deer collision that the older owner failed to disclose. We found that out because he brought the car into the same repair shop that we used!

There are some some benefits to living in a smaller urban centre!

As well as numerous disadvantages -- the defeated Village President has decided to not accept defeat graciously. She is now using the local paper to sling mud.

That happens even in the largest of centres. The problem is people, not the centre.

Indeed.

Very interesting and clean. He is a talented player. Thanks for the video.

Some of the commenters were making Salieri-esque accusations that Jordan was playing "too many notes," but it is not like the song is not open to different interpretations.

**Seamaster** Thu Jul 14, 2011 9:51 am

He did add a few notes, and his opening is completely his, but it is not like it detracted from the song.

The thing that has always disappointed me about Hendrix's own version on Axis: Bold as Love is that it is just too short. On the other hand, that is one reason why it has left itself open to so many different interpretations.

**Seamaster** Fri Jul 15, 2011 11:10 am

Hendrix's version is too short, but it is still a cracker of a song.

**Iago** Fri Jul 15, 2011 11:53 am

Indeed.
