Okay, so I jumped on the bandwagon...  Although, I have to agree with Alemaine...  I don't know what I look like...

Today's Inspiration.  I dunno...  I always really liked Joe, but currently he just simply knocks my sox off.  The guy is inhuman...

Today is going to be a good day.  I can tell already. 

Two days in a row, up at 3:30.  Today I took a break from Flight of the Bumblebee and dug this thing up.  I wrote this a long time ago and have always picked it up and messed around with it as a novelty.  It's actually a pretty extenisve syncronization exercise.  When playing this, refuse any and all desire to sweep.  Alternate pick the whole thing ( Read more... )

I was up very late last night and up very early this morning working on this.  It's one of those things that has always been available, but I never took the time to learn it.  I have had to force myself to not alter the fingering in several areas.  It's forcing me to work from another perspective in terms of fingering approach.

In terms of ( Read more... )

Today a trip to the Rock Shop.  Foodie was kind enough to let me rob the M22 series pickups out of the carcass of the Carvin.  Yesterday they were installed in the Ibanez w/ little to no problems.  After a single failed attempt, I decided I was too lazy to sit and think through wiring them to a 5-way switch.  I have the money to have someone else ( Read more... )

So last nigt Amy Jo was a bad influence and behaving badly.  She had a really rotten week at work last week.  On Friday she simply stated that she had a bad week and didn't even want to talk about it.  I didn't pry.  Last night she really didn't want to talk about it (again), but she did want to hang out and drink.  Hmmm?  Hang out w/ brunette and ( Read more... )

Exactly what one needs in times such as this -- Work!  Lots of it. 

Oh, I grow a beard once a year or so.  I'm happy to say that I started mine this year when I went to D.C.  Reason?  Because they wouldn't let me take my shaving cream on the plane.  Well, I'm happy to say that 1/3 of it is white.  I feel old and don't really give a rats ass and my lovely wife finds it attractive.  Of course I don't understand this ( Read more... )

Okay, T-Giving dinner is all prepped and ready to go.  Amy Jo and I mad amazing headway in the kitchen this evening in the midst of 2 mindless children.  The turkey is soaking in the brine and the stuffing is made.  All the sides and even the 2-layer pumpkin pie is chilling as we speak.  Of course, Amy Jo is all with me; we drank like crack whores ( Read more... )
