My wife just overheard this video and thought it was me. She thought it was "very good"...."not overpowering." This goes along with a current thread in which "dumbing down" your playing for the audience was discussed. I practice my ass off, and the first positive comment I get from my wife is elicited because she mistook me for a fucking squirrel.

This is ot, but maybe as good a place as any.
Whenever Frank posts those 'box' thingies, that is the end of a thread for me, unless it gets to a new page. On my phone this annoying thing happens where that box keeps adding lines and I can't write anything as the page keeps moving. Anyone else have the issue? Latest incident is in the 'accurate bending to pitch' thread.

And NOW...and Now...Lemme catch my breath.
I mention to my wife my post above, and she
says, "If you could play like that, maybe I would give
you more compliments." Time for a trip to the liquor store. Now I really do have the blues. The only thing worse would be the squirrel sneaking in my back door when I go out the front.

FM, well, at least you have an entry for the strange harmonica stories thread!

Superbee, I'm not sure I understand. I looked at the thread and saw his Box player or whatever, but the thread displayed normal.

If you guys can give me more details, I'll submit a bug report. Is that the only thing that seems to cause it?

Yep Nate, it's always when Frank posts the box player. And it's my iPhone. Page won't stay in one place. I can sometimes manage to type a short message, but I can't get the captcha because the target is too small and moves too quick.
The box continues to grow. Which keeps pushing everything posted subsequent further down the page. An iPhone screen is pretty small, so it doesn't take much to push the message window out of scope

Okay, I'm in stage one troubleshooting mode. Superbee, REM, sonny3, I've opened a thread:

http://www.modernbluesharmonica.com/board/board_topic/5560960/5456279.htm

See if you still get the problem there. I changed the order of the HTML a little. The height/width info was in a different place than on some other boxes on the site (like YouTube videos).

If that fixes it, we'll just have to see if Frank is cutting and pasting from their site (in which case we'll let them know they need to fix it or they'll tell us it's valid and it's our site that's screwing up) or he's construction it, and we'll just have to retrain him with Frankie Treats. Jinkies.
