Fender cleans really can't be topped
Now I just need to convince the wife that another amp is needed.

When the kids lived at home and going to school, the issue for my wife would invariably be finances. Now that the kids have moved out and our financial situation is relatively stable, the issue now is “clutter”. Honestly, I can’t disagree with her on the latter.

No matter the question, the answer always is that another amp (or pedal) is needed.

I’ve got a fairly bad addiction to gear. Thank god the wife keeps me in check somewhat.

What I recently discovered is that the TPA is planning to build a cruise ship terminal with the development of that area. The existing terminal is pretty small...and the numbers suggest it's a need.

I'm gonna respond in two different ways..

If it feels good, keep at it, no kink shaming here.

Those early Alcie albums were great, or should I say killer? Halo of flies was always a favourite………

they have been such a great surprise. I only ever knew him through like Wayne's World and movie soundtracks, never knew how much great stuff preceded that. or even that "Alice Cooper" was a band before it was the name of a solo artist.

Welcome to my nightmare was hus big hit album, but I’d argue everything before that was better, don’t get me wrong, nightmare was a good album, but it’s without his band.

As soon as I saw that I had an inkling as to who Rickey was. Google confirmed it. Very sad news indeed.

Yeah, there's only one Rickey. Sad indeed, he was one of most fun to watch athletes ever in NA pro sports.

Anybody else looking forward to this? I am a fan of Eggers and horror in general so I have high hopes.

I love how CBC runs with this story, claiming “North America is preparing for a battle for the Arctic” implying that Russia is a threat, when the United States has openly stated that it does not acknowledge Canadian Internal Waters, meaning if container ships were to start bypassing the Panama Canal, they would not need Canada’s permission to traverse through our territory.

This is the reason why Canada’s Avro Arrow doesn’t exist anymore. How long is Canada going to remain a vassal of Washington?

Until it is made a member of the North American Union. Which I imagine will be soon.

Always has been, always will be. Might as well reap the benefits of being American. I didn’t always have this opinion, but with age comes wisdom……..

What dog did you end up getting?

I was always a "dog" but over time have come to appreciate cats as well. Love them both.
