How many laws are there?
It must run into the millions by now.

I don't have a problem with this, really.

I recently bought a guitar for $12,000, and I paid cash (all $100 bills).

When I handed over the money, the guy in the shop was very suspicious (he didn't know me, so he had no idea where I got the money from).

In the future, I'll just need to put the cash in the bank first and then pay by EFTPOS.

It's safer (walking around with $12,000 in your wallet is pretty stupid), and gives me an electronic record for insurance purposes too.

So we're supposed to comment on a Bill that has this in it:
Quote:

Part 2—Offences
Division 1—Offences in relation to cash payments
9 Simplified outline of this Division
10 Offence—Cash payments in excess of cash payment limit
11 Offence—Cash payments recklessly in excess of cash payment
Division 2—[To be inserted]

What nasties have they got planned in "to be inserted"?

No.

I buy expensive guitars and pretend that I can't play like Jimmy (or Jeff).

This is my next purchase:

http://www.ozpolitic.com/album/forum-attachments/Jimmy_Page_9_large.jpg

Jimmy is one of my all time favourite players.

Jimmy, Jeff Beck, Clapton, Hendrix, SRV, Eddie Van Halen, David Gilmour, etc.

Strangely though, I've never owned a Les Paul.

Too heavy, too expensive, and not as good as a Fender.

When I play Jimmy tunes, I use a Telecaster.

OK - so what are they asking for that replica? $$$$

You do realise that Jimmy had at least 5 guitars to choose from for each concert?
He changed them between songs sometimes
for DADGAD tuning as used on Kashmir.

I'm a big DADGAD fan.

Also use the DADF#AD tuning (open D).

All because of Jimmy.

The Jimmy Dragon Tele is a little under $40,000.

I can afford it, but I don't think I'll buy it.

The price is ridiculous.

I'll probably go for this instead:

There were some floating around & they were terrible.

Considering the price, I'm guessing they're Mexican.

And Mexican Fenders are very, very good.

I have a few dozen US Strats and Teles, but my favourite Tele is a Mexican made one.
