Why isn't my PC recognizing my gramophone when I connect it through the USB?
I want to convert some of my wax cylinders to mp3 and a few old 78s. In fact, can I convert some of my sheet music to digital by using my printer?
And does anybody know if iPod nanos come in teak, ash, or pine?

No, a gramophone is no good for cylinders. You need a phonograph to play them.

Well, I say I'm 28, but they made a film in 1986 which almost gave my game away................Highlander.
I was born in 1094 in Milton Keynes (yes, a new town) and I am immortal, can only be killed by decapitation. When I get chased by neds, I immediately go through The Quickening, and go to pubs and nightclubs a lot for The Gathering. I am going to talk to the High Council for a new process called The Humping, of which I'd like Lara Lee and Sandie Caine to be part of.
Antique swords are too conspicuous these days, so the world warriors disguise themselves as lollipop men, and I have faced off with a few and absorbed their child-ushering powers.
I sometimes go up to Loch Lomond and get Sean Connery to weigh me down with his sticky love-ballast and then he chucks me off a rowing boat, where I have to walk from the depths of the loch to the beachy bit. He always wears a Spanish outfit, and greets me on his horse called Sarah Heaney.
Having lived through the Renaissance, Bannockburn, Stalinist Purges, the Holocaust, I have acquired many tastes and would like my wax cylinders put on to mp3, and want to convert my old bordello photos to digital. Napoleon was an awkward wee bugger, but was an amazing laugh- he had a terrible fear of cheese.
There can only be one..............
.......lunatic. !wink!
