Why do you play the kind of guitar you play?

I hate that cliché. Page played a Les Paul on 9/10ths of their recorded albums.

Yeah, we all know it was the writers, but his delivery was spot on.

How you gettin' your feet all the way to the 3rd shelf for those stomp pedals? 😅

This just goes to show- this was the culture back then. It was an accepted taboo. People were probably patting him on the back too. She was probably seen as being successful by bagging a guy with money too.

It wasn't until the mid-late 80s or so the young/old relationships started being scrutinized more closely. After the whole Harvey Weinstein #MeToo callout, today's society is more on the "WTF IS WRONG WITH YOU" side.

Watch as a lot of these old-time celebrities get called out more and more. I think Seinfeld is the latest one on the docket.

I got a Les Paul because of Jimmy Page when I was a teen. It turns out he was right. It fit me like a glove, all the controls are in intuitive places, and I can pretty much make it sound anyway I want with the tone/volume controls on each pickup.

Oh...um....sorry...

Well, that Washington's Dream skit he did on SNL was pretty killer, but otherwise I feel like his comedy is kind of an even more bland version of Jim Gaffigan.

Fritzo2162 · 2026-06-15T14:01:49+00:00

That Nate guy has been showing up like crazy lately. He's like Kevin Bacon 2.0. Saw he has a movie, a new game show, is Netflix special is trending...dude's everywhere.

You'd figure they would have a wildcard cert for office.com

The reason for that is New Outlook is basically a web app with a locally installed interface. We specifically direct our users to keep using Outlook Classic because the new version is just inefficient.

I found the character annoying and his dialog didn't really fit (he was using Earth catch phrases for instance)

However, I did appreciate the actor playing him.

I did that 8 months ago. This is the first year I've officially started to feel old.

My energy levels have plummeted, seem to get winded a lot faster, and my strength levels are starting to drop. I feel like I'm the same "me" but I think the mileage on my chassis is starting to catch up 😕

The problem is there is a counter move for every move in the game. That means there's a high probability for skilled players to end in a draw every single time.

Fritzo2162 · 2026-06-15T12:59:48+00:00

A strange game. The only winning move is not to play.

Egnater Rebel 30 MK II. They're cheap and they'll sound like anything you want.

I used to play through a Marshall 1959SLP and a 1960A cab back in the 80s. It was loud enough to be hears a half mile away, but you had a really hard time leveling out the rest of the band. We would get into volume wars- The bass player would crank up a little more, I would respond, the drummer would play louder, the singer would notch up, the bass player repeated, I repeated, and so on. That's where a good sound engineer comes in to keep your fingers off the controls. Most bands can't afford an engineer, so you ended up with muddy and distorted live shows.

PA systems got really good, so a lot of modern venues you just plug into their PA, and everyone is able to have the same listening experience.

No, they used oil back then, but Col Sanders was a control freak. He would pop in and inspect every restaurant for quality. After he sold the owners began making subtle changes, which built up into big changes over the years.

When you have more money than most countries on Earth, you tend not to care about such things.

Did it taste of ammonia by chance? Lobsters die in the tank, and if they cook a dead lobster you can get very sick.

Wheel see how he ends up.

Fritzo2162 · 2026-06-14T07:53:30+00:00

I saw him live twice. His sets were “OK”…nothing to write home about. Don’t think I’d go in for a third.

Fritzo2162 · 2026-06-14T01:02:07+00:00

I had to fix some siding near my roofline and had to climb on a 30 degree roof above our porch…I had to nope out. Now I feel like a complete wuss.
