I won a 1981 He-Man and Skeletor. Was a bit surprised to win both as I've missed out on a few recently. Possibly the wrong forum.

Seemingly not in the mail is the pair of Forma bike boots the sender handed to Mana Post Shop midday Monday. They've disappeared off the face of the earth. No scans. Investigations told me they could confirm the parcel was picked up but couldn't explain why it wasn't scanned. I can explain. Because some shady fucker stole them.

Universe is trying to tell me something, Sweetwater rep has emailed me saying they can't ship it outside the US... well I would have bought locally if there was any stock anywhere in NZ, or asia pacific even...

Gosh... is there a Bermuda-triangle-like area between here and Japan? I didn't think it would take that long to fly here from Tokyo.

Tube amp and guitar tones straight from 1958… amazing how believable the sounds were back then, even without the modellers...

Damn... that's even slower! I'm normally not too nervous about length of travel, but this is a guitar... Epiphone... headstock angle... etc.

Maybe I'm over paranoid. Let's hope that's all it is...
