When I brought my M-400 home in the back of a pickup camper, I hit

A couple of years ago I had three of them in my shop and in my music (studio? place? room?). Whatever. I was getting them ready for the Anglagard show at NEARfest. I referred to them at the time as Huey, Dewey, and Louie. I still think of # 1562 as Louie, but I don't ever say that out load. It was OK when we were dealing with three machines, as it was easier than calling them by their respective serial #s. Now sometimes I just refer to it as '"... you m∗∗∗∗r f∗∗∗ing piece of s∗∗t. But rarely.
