Jeff Buckley's Pick

I am trying to decide which of you 2 kids is the lamest, and I think its you by a longshot.

EDITL:

I am just being a dick, sorry, this whole pick thing is such a source of mirth for me... I can't help being a 'wind up' as Liam calls me

You should probably speed up your search, it sounds like you're suffering just a tad bit!

oh, thanks for your time table, Your Highness... I'll just get right on this as soon as I get home!

I just put my 2 year-old to bed. Yes, I am a single dad. I have very limited free time that doesn't involve the boy and despite the fact that I really oughta clean the motherfucker out, I don't want to spend ANY of my time rooting around my un-ventilated attic in the hottest, most humid weather Philadelphia has seen in years.... particularly for a couple of strangers who haven't even told me what they will pay for the damn picks.

In fact, I am feeling kinda pissy about your pestering and suspicious of your intentions, so when I do get around to going in my attic and turn up those picks while cleaning up.... you aren't getting one. Other dude can have some, but I won't sell them to you at any price, clockwatcher. Why don't you go make so memories of your own, but before you start why don't you....

also, were you buckley memorabilia searching on goggle when you came across this thread and only then joined equipboard solely to hit me up for my stuff? Don't answer, I know you did or you woulda contributed to the site or at least your profile by now. Shame on you. Be glad I'm not your dad. Now get off our website unless you plan on making a contribution!

It takes 5 minutes to be rude to you from my desk at work, even in multi-paragraph form.... and get paid to do it. I spend a lot of time on hold with insurers and physicians at work trying to get prior authorizations for increased HHA and SN care to help out the families of chronically ill children. I have hours of time tied to my desk trying to entertain myself on the web, waiting for my turn to get a polite no or be blown off by a lazy RN who can't be bothered to open a medical chart and fax some test results. It takes a little longer to post from my phone in othersituations, but not much as I am finally getting good at touchscreens. Its also much less tiring to post to a forum than crawl through a hot attic looking for a tiny piece of yellow plastic. You are being intentionally obtuse just like when I said something like 'possibly in 2 weeks, but my priority then will be making music with my friend (which is what I did Saturday, thanks for asking)' and you said "okay, so in 2 weeks then." But whatever, I'll make this brief:

So you admit to joining our wonderful gear site just to get your hands on my memorabilia? Well, forget it.

I am so sorry I told that other kid I had these picks and I have been ever since he asked me to send him a couple. I have been pestered by more people than you 2 because I was foolish enough to put give other guy my email address.... now before I forget I need to delete that reply I made to him so I don't get anymore people begging me for picks.

I did find them along with other artist's picks some time ago, but when I did I thought better of getting rid of them... I just don't want to deal with the logistics of selling these tiny little keepsakes via the internet or the personalitiesinvolved. I don't know what they're worth anyway. Whatever it is it's not enough to cancel out the hassle.

but you're clear that I said no to you, and I mean it, right?

I don't want to deal with this, once the OP made me feel uncomfortable, I really regretted even mentioning I have a collection of picks from famous artists of the 90s and earlier (and as the thread shows, when he was bugging me regularly to search for the pick collection, I really lost my temper with him, but I should have said they weren't for sale when I couldn't locate them easily). Mentioning my keepsakes was just a colorful aside on another thread many years ago. I was just making chitchat with acquaintances. Was I tempted to find them and sell some when the OP started this thread? For a hot minute, it was rough financial patch, but the level of obsession was WAY too high. I've decided to retain all of my keepsakes and allow my son to dispose of them when I'm gone. Sorry to disappoint. Since this incident my policy is that my possessions are not for sale on equipboard unless I create a sale thread with a link to reverb or ebay... which happens from time to time. Thank you.
