JSngry Posted July 9, 2004 Report Share Posted July 9, 2004 If you're like me, your eyes don't work nearly as well as they once did. So here's a chance to say what you have to say in a format that is easy to read. And if you don't have your glasses handy, you needn't be bothered with retrieving them. I consider the creation of this thread to be a service to all my friends, so carpe diem y'all!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris olivarez Posted July 9, 2004 Report Share Posted July 9, 2004 I had to take off my reading glasses for this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Free For All Posted July 9, 2004 Report Share Posted July 9, 2004 I had to start wearing bifocals recently. No problem, they're great except when I need to look down to read music which is pretty much ALL THE FUCKING TIME!! Now I have to take my glasses OFF to be able to read. Or I can wear my old really-out-of-style pair. I guess I need to get ANOTHER non-bifocal pair of glasses. Sheesh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chuck Nessa Posted July 9, 2004 Report Share Posted July 9, 2004 Great timing. Had to take my only pair in to the shop and won't have 'em back for a week. They are the rimless kind and both lenses started cracking where they were drilled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim R Posted July 9, 2004 Report Share Posted July 9, 2004 Sorry, Jim, but could you select a slightly larger font? Thank God my optometrist tricks me into buying a new pair of reading glasses every year. Now I have them all over the place, and sometimes I even remember to bring them into the CD shops...

Free For All Posted July 9, 2004 Report Share Posted July 9, 2004 How about those A&M CD reissues (like Mel Lewis and Friends) where they keep all the LP art work (including solo transcriptions and lead sheets) and shrink it down to CD size. So you have lead sheets for A Child Is Born and Sho' Nuff Did and a Brecker transcription that are the size of postage stamps. Definitely a job for the ol' Magnifocus!

You ought to drop off a pair at some of your selected cd haunts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jazzmoose Posted July 9, 2004 Report Share Posted July 9, 2004 I don't quite need reading glasses yet, although the blurry handwriting is on the wall. However, I've always been nearsighted, and now have to take off my glasses to see the computer screen. I just can't focus that close anymore...

B. Goren. Posted July 9, 2004 Report Share Posted July 9, 2004 I do not even try to read CD liner notes. CDs liner is a real pain in the ass. My glasses can't help me anymore in this case. What I need in order to read it is a magnifying glass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
