Ce qui ?tait beau Pierre.
 
Alambics de toutes formes sont belles pour moi.
 
Peace mon fr?re!
 
 
Translation:
 
That was beautiful Pierre.
Alembics of all shapes are beautiful to me.  
Peace my brother!

Pierre,
 
I am happy you found your bass. That is wonderful, man! (It really is...)
 
As for me calling you my brother, I apologize. It was my gesture to support mutual solidarity, with good intentions as a member of this club that unites us.  
 
Perhaps my tendency to believe too readily, and therefore to be easily deceived to think I could extent an olive branch after reading your thread from Charles d'Orleans exposes my naivete.
 
You are indeed relentless and holds the qualities of a very troubled human being Pierre.  
 
These words will be my last, said to you...
 
I wish you peace, please do not post any more comments on my FTC.
 
Please respect my wishes.
 
 
Thank you.

Hakeem,
 
     This is the same guy who told me it was indecent of me to have an Alembic in Iraq when I served there.  I'd take anything he has to say with a grain of salt if I were you.

Hakeem,
 
     Here's the link to the discussion I refer to.  Form your own opinion.

Alan; Hal and I, and Pierre-Yves and I, have already had email discussions on this issue.  I am hopeful that this issue will not come up again, and will no longer be discussed on this board.

Dave,
 
   I agree.  That's why I posted the link, and counseled Hakeem to form his own opinion.

David,
 
I had already asked Pierre to honor my request in not posting on my FTC. Hopefully, it will be honored.  
 
Other that that, its water under the bridge. I just can't wait to have my awesome bass and be happy like all of you guys if this is possible...

I don't own this site, nor did I make demands as if I did. One could only ask others for the right to enjoy ones experience to enjoy the makings of their dream bass (if this is at all even possible) Only time will tell.
 
I will not hold my breath... LOL!
 
Bill, welcome to part 2 of Toma_Hawk Experience!

Mother, mother
There's too many of you crying
Brother, brother, brother
There's far too many of you dying
You know we've got to find a way
To bring some lovin' here today - Ya
 
Father, father
We don't need to escalate
You see, war is not the answer
For only love can conquer hate
You know we've got to find a way
To bring some lovin' here today
 
Picket lines and picket signs
Don't punish me with brutality
Talk to me, so you can see
Oh, what's going on
What's going on
Ya, what's going on
Ah, what's going on
 
In the mean time
Right on, baby
Right on
Right on
 
Father, father, everybody thinks we're wrong
Oh, but who are they to judge us
Simply because our hair is long
Oh, you know we've got to find a way
To bring some understanding here today
Oh
 
Picket lines and picket signs
Don't punish me with brutality
Talk to me
So you can see
What's going on
Ya, what's going on
Tell me what's going on
I'll tell you what's going on - Uh
Right on baby
Right on baby

Man I just don't get it! Hal, your just trying to enjoy the process of watching your bass be built and, WHAM!!!!! Mean people suck!! I am fan numero uno of your bass and it's origionality, in fact i'm down right jealous of your creativity, i think the world will be a better place when the Toma Hawk is making sweet low notes in your hands. Why can't others share in this joy??? Oh i know it's cause mean people suck!!!!! But i guess what comes around goes around and all the haters, well lets just let them take care of themselves(karma can be such a bitch!!!!) peace and low notes.........Bear
