I believe Jim plays something with four strings, but it's not bass...it's ukulele, right, Jim?

That's just a high strung, miniature bass, Jake.

Well, at least Jeff didn't refer to him as a high strung, miniature bassist ...

I was thinking that also but I did not want to stop his heart.

I don't know if that would stop Jim's heart...might get it racing a bit!

It's keeping track of which back-ups are the back-ups for the back-ups --- is when it gets a little confusing.

Fiddle is the 4 string instrument in question. And at 5'6" without my boots on, and were I known as a bass player, I guess one might justifiably call me a miniature bass player.

FedEx says it's in transit and located somewhere in Chino, CA. (I guess that's where they make the slacks.) Estimated delivery: Jan. 18.
