Yeah, I'm a smartass: do you mean by midnight the beginning of Nov 30, which means through the day and evening of Nov 29, or do you mean until the point Nov 30 becomes Dec 1. You may think I'm off the wall, but I have seen sizeable business contract litigation on this exact point. So the standard language is now for a lease to begin on 12:01 am on (date) until 11:59 pm on (later date). OK, yeah, I know, it's now my turn to buy the beer.

I think he means there are no CC tubas on his loading dock/in his life at the moment…

Oh, you are probably correct. I still couldn't resist being a smartass since I in my prior career I actually had to review some of these documents.

Would have had more in stock, but haven't done enough acoustical research to get them really dialed in, and I just don't really want to sell any that aren't just right. Just so you'll know, I've applied for apprenticeships at both KHS International and Conn-Selmer. I'm hoping and one of them will take me under their wing, and show me how it's done - along with the research and the science.

I think he meant all the C tubas are 60% off.
Conversely, the CC tubas are marked up 40% at the moment.

It also depends on what the definition of a C tuba is. I suspect there are quite a few different tubas that will play the pitch "C".

I was so excited about 60% off that I completely missed that it’s not “CC” but “C” only. Either way, only couple of hours left and I better go and hit that search button again so I don’t miss out on all the “C” deals.

If you hire a private tutor, your C tuba will become a B+ tuba.

We had a pretty amazing trip to Pittsburgh over Thanksgiving. I'll post about it in the update thread.
We drove straight there and straight back four days apart, it was 11 hours each way. We just got back a little more than an hour ago, and I need to crash.

I flipped on the 5:00 a.m. "news" just now. The local guy told me it was Cyber Monday, he told me that the local ball club is on a winning streak, and he repeated a story from several days ago about what Trump did. I rolled my eyes and clicked it back off. They do a terrible job.
