I just love the guy who said he had a "special" cloak to spare him from harm and so he walked straight into cannon fire and him and all his people were mown down. I mean, it is so Monty Python but 100% real, poor souls. Maybe a custom BJFE competition should be to "find real-life events that were first in Monty Python sketches". You know, life imitates art kind of thing.

Congrats gents! Must've been hard to choose between those 3, they all are ridiculously incredible pedals. Robapov, you should definitely mess with the internal dial on that 2stomp. The spot where mine is dialed in adds such an awesome (and I think unique from all the other BJF pedals) tone/eq to pretty much all of my other BJF's when I stack them with the 2stomp.

Indeed it is difficult to choose. It is like having Angelina Jolie, Marissa Millerand Kate Walsh in front of you and being told to decide which one you want and NOT having much of a chance to have the others. :) Alas, i have chosen the SWF. Thanks Donner!

Here's an interesting theory supported by some Christians and various references in the Bible -- I will try not to bore you with all the details, but here are the main points:

( 1 ) In Revelation 8:1, it reads that after the "seventh seal" had been opened, there was silence in heaven for the space of a half hour. After this half hour ends, the "end of the world" commences, ie, "thunderings, lightings, earthquakes" etc.

( 2 ) Many Christians interpret the "seventh seal" as being the year 2000 -- (1st seal 5000 BC, 2nd seal 4000 BC,... 6th seal 1000, 7th seal 2000 -- various scriptural references)

( 3 ) Some Christians believe (again, through various scriptural references) that:
---- 1 day of God's time = 1000 years of man's time
---- thus, 1440 minutes of God's time = 525,600,000 minutes of man's time = a ratio of 1440 / 525,600,000
---- thus, man's time is 365,000 times "longer" than God's time

( 4 ) Using this formula, (1:365,000) the half hour of silence ends up equaling 20.83 years, thus equaling the year 2020.8, ending up sometime in September - October of the year 2020.

So there you have it, the end of the world will be sometime in September or October in the year 2020.


We still have 12 years, there's time to party after all!! :wink: And think what an amazing party I would have if I had a Model H to rock out with!! :mrgreen:

Wow! I'm absolutely speechless!


I don't think I could say no to one of the Heidi's though. :D

A huge thanks Donner (and of course to Bjorn as well)!

I predict the world will end at exactly the moment it does :mrgreen:

of course for it to truly 'end' there would be nothing left and no one to remember it so it never existed ..... bummer :wink:

so who wants more pedals :lol:
