... and it damn sure wasn't the men's department.

Oh what the heck, I put his other videos on the Superfreak page, this one is even better.

The blonde in the 1999 video is Jill Jones. Prince had a habit of producing records for his proteges and giving away songs, he was actually very generous that way. Among other things, he wrote the Bangles' Manic Monday. This video has a very 1950s Italian feel.

Rickenbacker 4001 Bass 1

This one is kind of a joke and an experiment in just how cheap you can build a guitar. The body is dry-erase board over plywood - no finish - with Tolex side binding. Dry-erase board is Masonite covered with Melamine. The neck is 100% Radiata pine, even the fretboard. The "inlays" are glitter and CA glue. The pickguard is the other side of the dry-erase board - 'chalkboard'. The pickup mount is a 57 cent switch plate.

Minor Shop Injuries

A woodshop is a dangerous place, sometimes your tools turn on you. For a nice clean cut, Crazy Glue is perfect, I use it all the time. Think of it as an artificial scab. When it comes off, make a new one, as long as you need to. Crazy Glue is extremely acidic and probably has a sterilizing effect as well. I have sealed up cuts and gone swimming when otherwise wetness would have been a problem for weeks. Crazy Glued cuts also heal much faster, with much less scarring.
