This reply got me thinking.

Members are really concerned about the 10 lbs extra for a keyboard. They should also be thinking about the extra work, and strain on their body they are doing carrying around the extra 10, 20, 30, 40+ lbs around their waistline.

Loosing those extra lbs, and staying in shape would make lifting the gear a lot easier, especially with the warm weather coming up.



Hah, Bernie, I may be big, and relatively strong, but I'm also extremely lazy.

Jerry, I try to keep my weight under 200 lbs as I am 6'1", and the only way that's possible is to be very careful of what I eat, since I'm too lazy to do much exercise, other than lots of walking.

Having health issues a few years ago, with subsequent surgery also taught me how important it is to keep a balance of work and leisure, and to stay away from any gig work that may be stressful.

Now, because I'm financially okay due to a pension, I can be picky with the type (and amount) of work I do take on, and I avoid any negative situations and people...it helps a lot.

Ian the Indolent
