Anything interesting going on in the world today?
« on: June 24, 2023, 10:17:46 AM »
It's Saturday morning and I haven't even got out of bed yet. I'm usually out of bed 3 hours ago. It's 8:16 where I'm at.

I think I'll get up and cook breakfast. Bacon and eggs with French press coffee!

Then I'm going to finish mixing a song that's going to be released.

Today is a good day.

Oh. World events. Can't talk about them. But I'm going to get up and get breakfast pretty soon.

I'll take this opportunity reveal that I have co-founded a new band called The Jetglows.
Working to release two songs pretty soon.

We have lots of songs, but it takes a lot of time for old people to put stuff like this together. It's work. Writing the songs is easy. Mixing them and getting them produced, not so much.

Seriously, if you guys want to talk about what's going on in Russia, head over to https://icecreamonmars.com/

This is history in the making.

This thread was half serious. I know a lot of people are watching as things unfold and it's shame that it can't really be discussed here.

Oh.

I sold a vintage acoustic guitar on Reverb.com Guy that bought says he found over 12 microscopic blemishes on the top and that he is going to have the best luthier in the country refinish the top.

I sold the guitar with NO REFUNDS and it's in absolutely incredible condition. Nearly flawless. Bazillion rosewood and cedar. Hand made. 50 years old, ALL original. No fret wear. My uncle bought it new - sat in the case. I'm the second owner.

Anyway. I told the guy if he's not happy with it that I will gladly buy it back. I told him he's crazy of he refinishes that top - it will devalue the guitar 50%. 

I don't get this guy. There are no visible marls on the top. It's near mint. Anal as hell , I guess.

Had lots of pictures of it.

oh well.

I'd take the guitar back and just keep it. I was on the fence about selling it anyway

I find it quite Unsurprising  :rofl

You know I used to look at GG's shameless self advertising as attention seeking (no offense gg). But to be fair it is proven time and time again it is impossible to discuss anything on this board with out it turning into a pissing matched and eventually a locked thread.

Hell we cant even discuss a 111 year old shipwreck with out it degenerating into conspiracies about the main stream media and how terrible their politics are and how great ours is!

A little off topic, but did you know that most of our Military submarines have a max depth of 2,500.
I found that interesting.  There are a few that can go much deeper, but not many.
Hope we have subs in the game someday.  :joystick:
