thread_title:  He is Jewish 

message: Gene Vincent often commented about his bad relationship with Arden. On one of his final albums,for Karma Sutra label, he sang a song called "Our Souls", where he sings about "what a wonderful wonderful fish the sole is, what wonderful fish, are soles" (interesting, because he uses the British pronunciation, of 'arseholes', rather than the American, 'assholes'.) He finishes the song with a line of "are soles" and then ends with, "How's that, Mr Arden?" (37.31.60.66 (talk) 22:28, 8 June 2013 (UTC)

Talk:Guitar speaker

message: Although a brown soun make good speakers, they can hardly be called a well-known brand. Edit or not? Remmelt 16:21, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

message: Far too little effort has been made here to differentiate the concept guitar speaker from the general loudspeaker. 
As well, it could be a section of guitar amplifier, seeing as an amp (or simulator) can be used without a speaker, but a speaker is useless without an amplifier. Moreover, a "guitar speaker" is regularly used both to mean the electromagnetic device (loudspeaker) itself AND the cabinet into which one or more speakers is mounted.
Seeing as there is also a resounding lack of references, I am going to make the case that this article needs to be removed. What isn't covered under loudspeaker can fit handily into guitar amplifier.

message: The article says that Don is the only remaining original member of GFR. However, the GBR article lists Mel Schachter as both an original member and a current member.

It's a bit awkward to state tidily because Haston was breaking trail (they had been taking turns) and he slowed to let Scott reach him. They then arrived at the top together. So, he was in the first pair of Britons to reach the top or, bearing in mind that Haston was Scottish, Scott was the first English person.

thread_title: Philly Mayor Candidate

message: Just wanted to note that I removed a piece of misinformation in the article per this edit and this edit by an anon user (66.31.165.36). The article had said that Kaz Matsui tied Evans's record for earliest home run hit in a season (by pitches and at-bats, not dates) in 2004 while playing in the Mets' first game of the season. A quick check of Baseball Reference's box scores from 2004 indicates that this isn't true. For one thing, the first major league home run of the season was hit by Jason Giambi while the New York Yankees were in Japan to play the Tampa Bay (Devil) Rays. That box is here. Matsui's home run came almost a week later in the Mets' first game of the year. Evans's home run came on the first pitch of the entire season, not the first pitch of Boston's season. The two aren't the same and Matsui did not, as I see it, tie the record. 66.31.165.36 left the misinformation in the article and inserted the correction in an additional sentence; I reverted those edits and simply removed the misinformation, and would like to give credit where credit is due for noticing the error.
