Dang... thought I had a solution to both problems!

Well, if their shelves are full, I guess they have to be picky!

Thanks 2JM! But the last thing I want is for the idjits to feel at home...

If your boys think your funny, you've done a good job...why don't they serve coffee at the libraries where I live?...

I did it! I ordered my C and D Megs! I got them from elderly.com for $2.80 each for a total of $10.55 including shipping! Now over the Labor Day weekend, the Cherokee Nation is having a national holiday and we intend to go to that. I got my cane B whistle from a holiday festival a while back, but Josh left it in th rain and it warped. Hopefully I can replace it and get a G whistle too at the festival. (They call them flutes and there's no use arguing with them...LOL)

Hehehe. I saw them referred to as "flute whistles" before.

Yes, and I guess technically they are right...they are really end-blown fipple flutes from what I understand.

I was just playing my B. It still sounds pretty good, despite the warping.

Pretty good price on those Megs, huh? I can't wait to try that C.

Hey, if nobody else is going to talk on this thread, OT and I have no trouble at all discussing whistles!

How many whistles did you get? I figure I'll just learn how to play the ones I already have.

I just have the two Feadógs (one with the bump on the mouthpiece and the other is smooth), the B cane whistle er, flute and the D and C Meg on the way.

I only play simple tunes. I just like hearing them in the different keys.

Josh runs around playing the recorder I got at the homeschool used curriculum fair. Matthew pics up whatever whistle is lying around. LOL!

NEW DOWNLOAD! Got it HERE:
War of the Ring

Here are the links to do it below.... Remember to Download rather than trying to stream it live (Right click/"save target as) This is the Preview trailer that was released in the theaters attached to FoTR in the Spring. It is the one previously only available on-line in that poor quality audience bootleg. What's new is the high quality Medium and even better, LARGE versions now available. I downloaded the Large, and the large version is beautifully clear even at full screen. 2J - I don't know if you can download things this big or not, but you would be so pleased at how clear Merry's scar is on his forehead in this version. Bright red blood and a cut. It is not a smudge, it is not your imagination, you are not crazy! (at least on this point).

I really tried to get a screencap, but since it is Media Player file, I don't know how - even print screen doesn't work. Penny how did you solve that?

Movie Trailers Title Text

The Two Towers Poster

The Two Towers Trailers

The First Preview Trailer (Tag On to The Fellowship of the Ring)

Medium - This is a poor quality handycam version, we will update it as soon as it is available.

Medium - Avi (17mb) - Far Higher quality version, a few subtitles, but no flickering! NEW!

Large - Avi (34mb) - The same as above, but bigger and better. NEW!

NB You need the latest DivX codec to play these last two files. You can get it here.
