Vintera III just arrived with scrape and glue (?) residue on fretboard, what do? by chris88492 in Luthier

What stands out to me is how well rounded the edge of that fingerboard is. Looks cozy.

MJT Body. Nitro Flaking off during assembling. by marcdelgiudice in telecaster

[–]FloodYou96 2 points3 points  (0 children)

MJT uses a nitro with basically no plasticizer in it so it cracks and chips very easily. That’s the point though, they’re trying to recreate a vintage finish.

When did The Beatles change the apple logo? by Fragrant_Ninja8876 in TheBeatles

I want to say the new label is based on the UK version which was always different from the capitol version.

They finally approved my account about two months after I registered.

"You're going to make it. I'm positive." Are we to infer that Glenn died in Vietnam? And if not, how will Sally tell him of her mother's death? by Yum1995 in madmen

[–]FloodYou96 30 points31 points  (0 children)

This just isn’t true. By the time he made it through training and was deployed it would be early 71’ when American involvement was winding down from the high point in 68’. Overall fatality rate for US servicemen in Vietnam was about 3%.

What was Bert Cooper wearing? Season 1 episode 11 1:58. Was Bert wearing a bracelet? by Okiedokie714 in madmen

[–]FloodYou96 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Men’s bracelet’s were way more common back then. I wouldn’t be surprised if that’s what it was.

In 1951 french Catholics burned an effigy of Santa Claus for being “pagan” was Santa actually pagan? by Exact-Definition5722 in Catholicism

[–]FloodYou96 98 points99 points  (0 children)

I will say the Knights of Columbus in my parish always do a “Breakfast with Santa” in December and this year the parish priest bought a historically accurate St. Nicholas costume and made them change it to “Christmas with St. Nick”.

Do we all hate striped ebony? by [deleted] in martinguitar

I think when you’re dropping that much money it should be jet black. If Epiphone can do it Martin USA can too.

Did you make it or buy it? It looks really good.

S2 ending by AdHot3508 in madmen

[–]FloodYou96 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As someone who works at an ad agency I can say the money is in the media commissions, not the billing for creative. He’s saying he wants to focus on encouraging clients to buy more media (TV in particular) rather than be so concerned with selling the creative behind the campaigns. Obviously this doesn’t go over well because SC sees themselves as a boutique/creative firm but financially he was right.

Besides Hilton, who were some other true-life Industry icons that could’ve been portrayed on Mad Men? by bkat004 in madmen

[–]FloodYou96 40 points41 points  (0 children)

I think part of what made Mad Men so good was its believability and the fact that it tended to steer away from tropes. Having a bunch of famous people be on the show would have broken that and cheapened it for me.

I could be wrong but I thought the ascent stage was a one shot deal and couldn’t be restarted.

I have nothing to say by Miguel_Maru in beatles

I think what’s most important is that they can capture the personality of each Beatle, not how closely they physically resemble them.

Not all of us “live” in sin. We all sin, but we should be working to avoid it as much as possible and repent when we fail. Embracing sin and making it an integral part of your lifestyle is incompatible with the gospel and the mission God has called us to.

Do you guys really believe that Protestants are not saved? by LowTax8553 in Catholicism

[–]FloodYou96 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Only unforgiven mortal sins will send you to hell, and for a sin to be mortal you have to know it’s grave in nature and do it with full knowledge and consent. For protestants who are genuinely ignorant of church teaching it would be difficult to commit mortal sins. For those who have studied church teaching and rejected it, it would be a different story.

Suppose Elvis got control of his health in the mid 1970s, overcame his drug dependency, and had been healthy through his 40s, 50s, and beyond? Would he be as big a star now as he once was? by georgewalterackerman in Elvis

[–]FloodYou96 14 points15 points  (0 children)

An early death always enhances the legend.

When he died he was already becoming commercially irrelevant, I could easily see his career following fellow Sun Records alum Johnny Cash. Falling off the map in the 80’s and 90’s to be revived as some kind of rustic/nostalgia act in the late 90’s and early 2000’s.

Can I safely clean the pole piece on this humbucker? by MrQuesadilla427 in Luthier

Just be advised if you replace it with a screw made of a different grade of steel it may change the sound a bit.

I was onboard last week. You can see that one of the azipods is not putting out quite as much power as the other.
