    Do you have an under/overbite and can you whistle.

    I've got an underbite and i can't for the life of me whistle, starting to wonder if it's just a lost cause due to my malfunctioning teeth alignment. What say you fellow xbiters?

    Is there a program that will translate something into sheet music?

    the two most used are sibelius and finale. you'd need a midi pickup for your guitar though.

    Lesbian's brutal gang rape investigated in Calif.

    Then why is the header brutal lesbian rape, rather than brutal rape of a lesbian, the former would imply it was a group of lesbians raping the victim. Also your comments that there are no pictures, you clearly thought it was an all lesbian affair, otherwise you just have really sick taste.
