I can play a few on guitar. . . but I don't know the melodies for horns. I might have as many instruments as I do bats, if that tells you anything.

I'm not a Game of Thrones nerd like many of you, but I have my own vices. I got a new toy today. . . this is how I roll:
All I can say Andy is that you're one horny bastard

.Kinda funny that that's what everyone knows it as, but that's not the right name for it, haha.

If and when I record my own brass quintet piece, then this statement will be true. I know have all the instruments to pull this off.

How much does it cost for an ffl? I know guys that run out of auto shops and welding shops. They don't keep any inventory. CA is a pain in the ARSE to buy a gun.

$200 just to apply for the licence. Then if you have all your ducks in a row, and get approved, a nice guy with an ATF jacket on comes to interview you.

What's the right name? I've only ever heard it called a French Horn.

The going rate around here is $20.

So, I just got my tax return back. It was decent sized, and I'm "allowing" myself up to around $200 to spend on myself. I'm trying to decide between picking up a new Vinci (EI1918-22), a new standard Utrip bat (probably the Mizuno Blackout), or perhaps something else. What say you, my fellow Anarchists? I'm leaning towards glove, simply because as much as I would like to have a Utrip bat, I don't really need one for any current leagues. My laptop is finally working now that I got a new AC adapter, so thankfully I don't need to get a new one either now.

This may sound blasphemous, but you're probably good on bats and gloves. Save your money for a weekend trip somewhere, like a ball game or a camping trip. Do what you want to do, and bring the ladyfriend along only if she really wants to go.

Haha, good point my friend. My main reason for thinking about a glove was my smallest "nice" glove is my 14.25" BR45. I'm thinking it might be good to have a smaller glove for when I'm not playing 14" ball, and maybe for when I have a kid playing baseball someday (because being a Vinci, I fully expect it to last plenty long).
Sad thing is, I won't have time for a weekend trip until I'm married. I only get 1 day off a week as it is, thanks to my practicum and trying to work part time at the same time. Definitely something to think about though.

I never could use to the 14" feel just felt way to big for me as a pitcher. I use a 12.75 and I don't think ill ever go any larger..

Management Material
Well the LD of my local league has shown me exactly why the Nanotek is on the banned bat list....
(b) METAL BAT – Metal bats must have only ONE layer of metal which composes the outer wall/shell of the bat. The handle/neck of the bat may be made of a separate piece from the barrel of the bat. . An illegal inner wall/shell is defined as any metal cylindrical layer separated from or made of a different material than the core of the barrel of the bat, regardless of whether this layer is fused, bonded, or has a zero-tolerance with the outer wall/shell.
According to the Anderson website this makes the Nano illegal in this league: "The patent pending Anderson launchpad is a separate layer of complex nano metallic alloy that is molecularly bonded to the underlying aluminum bat structure to create a single metal wall."

Well technically it's one piece if it is bonded molecularly.Well the LD of my local league has shown me exactly why the Nanotek is on the banned bat list....

I'm assuming you already showed him the photo I've posted a million times of the Nano cutaway?
At this point, it's not even worth it to argue with your LD anymore. Just get an Ignite or a KSP or a Pyrotech and be done with it.

The way this is explained in the ad copy is incredibly sensitive because of the way it is being used. The LDs are basing their rules on our ad copy. Our current copy, which is written for simplicity rather than technical accuracy, does not take that into consideration. It is being addressed.
