    I think "sea food" is now the operant theme.

    Well I'm no ichthyologist, but I believe "tunny fish" is just another name for tuna. I've always thought the expression "tuna fish" was redundant. By that reasoning, should I call my steak "cow mammal"?

    I seen them all over America and in Stockholm while I was in Army. Last show I seen was Nashville 2000 I think. Finding studio masters of them is very hard they were like CD sound wise .

    There three items in my home my wife ot son Won't touch are my coins , records/stereo and my 1964 Custom Les Paul.

    I need to add one of this type coin to my collection
