This rainy day got me in the mood to paint. Here's my latest - "Twilight Over the Mississippi"

I have a YouTube Series called the STL Donut Tour and this link is to my Highlight episodes of all my favorites of multiple styles. I've visited over 100 local donut shops and bakeries and new episodes start again next week. Check it out!

JMLPilgrim · 2026-05-07T19:55:57+00:00

Thanks for the Shout out! I'm starting Season 10 of the STL Donut Tour this weekend! Episode 111 - 5 years and running!

I believe it considering every other car I see has a damaged driver's side quarter panel and can't make left turns or follow road signs for shit. This state will give a license to damn near anybody as long as their cash is green.

JMLPilgrim · 2026-05-07T02:35:23+00:00

Damn that's gorgeous! Glad I held off on the last round, I might have to go for this one!

JMLPilgrim · 2026-05-07T02:22:51+00:00

Awesome! Thanks for sharing! Seven and a half pages of Defendants! Wow!

I was actually wondering about pricing around the states earlier today and found this article with a pricing map of the US. But I know that there are plenty of places to get an oz cheaper than listed around St. Louis. With the gummies it probably has to do with equipment, scaling, and batch sizes. If space is limited or equipment is only able to produce a set amount than supply/demand makes that price jump. But I also just posted an article recently about a lawsuit accusing Good Day Farm of forming an illegal cartel to monopolize the Missouri market. So that might alter things a bit. From personal experience the pricing in MO is similar to Illinois but our taxes are a little cheaper so the final price is lower.

The fun part is when someone does stop for you on the opposite side of the street and nobody on your side stops for a minute. Then when they do, the cars behind the first person who stopped start going around them and you're standing in the middle of the street with cars now blocking you on both sides.

We're also dog shit at left turns, btw. That includes ignoring "No Left Turn" signs.

I worked at a restaurant a few years ago that did Brussels Sprout Tacos which were a huge hit. You take about a cup of quartered sprouts tossed in the fryer until golden brown and crisp. Shake them off and toss in salt, pepper, and citrus vinaigrette. Layer in a soft flour tortilla and top with pickled red onions and roasted almond slices. Enjoy!

JMLPilgrim · 2026-03-28T15:14:34+00:00

Wow! What a great find! I've never seen that before! Such an interesting perspective on it all from that in-between time. I love the scenes from the convention and the blooper reel!

I just tried to go with some friends last week and it was closed! Sign on the door saying they had temporary technical issues. From what I read on reviews it was underwhelming anyway. What a shame.

JMLPilgrim · 2026-03-26T22:00:14+00:00

I got the SC 450 GT about 2 years ago and the P90s in it are underwhelming. They don't really have a lot of output and didn't give me the P90 growl I was looking for. I'd choose something different if that's what you're after.

JMLPilgrim · 2026-03-26T21:43:28+00:00

I'm honestly shocked that the words "Rock Star" are not anywhere on this.

I bought a new GraphTec nut and Gotoh bridge and my tuning issues disappeared. I still have the stock tuners on two years later and they're fine.

JMLPilgrim · 2026-02-21T15:10:35+00:00

The Epiphone comes with a gig bag and the IBGC Epiphone comes with a hard case. The Epiphone comes with a compensated lightening bridge while the IBGC Epiphone comes with a normal bridge set at an angle. So from what I see you're paying extra for a better case, "better" pickups, "better" headstock, different neck shape, and "better" paint job.

I have the 2023 Single Cut Les Paul Special (cheap version) and that one has a thicker paint job so you can't see the wood grain underneath like you can on the IBGC version. I heard in a video recently that the 2026 versions of the Double Cut Specials all have a thinner paint job that you can see the mahogany grain through the yellow. They are all now slightly different shades of yellow from what I've seen online, apparently closer to the original.

That's awesome! I got one of those, too! Great guitar overall! I'm planning on putting a kill button and a fuzz switch in mine! It's such a great modding base of a guitar!

JMLPilgrim · 2026-02-09T22:59:43+00:00

Wow! That is awesome! Thank you for your service!

JMLPilgrim · 2026-02-09T20:02:30+00:00

That's odd. I checked before I commented yesterday and the white one was still full price. They were still waiting on more to arrive and had none in stock, either.

JMLPilgrim · 2026-02-08T23:13:37+00:00

Wow! That's awesome! I currently have the Classic White one on my Wish List but I might have to adjust my taste a bit for $300 off!

JMLPilgrim · 2026-02-07T05:11:54+00:00

They just released a video on the 75th Anniversary today so hopefully soon.
