 Seriously, I used 3M trim adhedive found in auto
 parts store, comes in a small tube also, and you only
need a little.  Beauty of this is if you ever need to
remove it at a later date, a heat gun or hair dryer
gets it off. Great stuff, been using it for years.

Thanks, Ken & everyone, just making sure-

   BTW- That moody Blue 'Tron kinda grows on 'ya (Some
kinda Miami Vice thing goin' on).  The color certainly
would work for poolside serenades.  Without feet, I do
forsee the owner having a bit more mellotronist's
hunchback, tho.  Strange position for the handles,
seems it might flip over if lifted.  At least it has a
good pedigree, but is it housebroken?  And what's with
the little dark head growing out of the guy's back? 
Wait, that's just the ale talking...
