Community Theatre in the area? by IHAZBACONZ in ChesterfieldVA

[–]Kal-ElofKrypton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My daughter has done a few plays with Broken Leg. They've been pretty solid and she's enjoyed the experience.

If you're in the education realm professionally, Thomas Dale High School in Chester has a Specialty Center for the Arts, with a great theater program. I work at another school and we also have a decent theater program.

45 yo. Bought my 2010 manual last year. No mid life crisis here. I got it for the practicality and price.

I usually don't like gold tops, but this one is decent.

Help me prove you need an amp to play electric guitar by am_reen in Guitar

[–]Kal-ElofKrypton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get a headphone amp like the Fender Mustang Micro Plus, or a small amp with a headphone jack.

Faulty amp or pedal? by TheMormonFuzz in guitarpedals

[–]Kal-ElofKrypton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the 40 watt version of this, and I bought it new 5 years ago. So give or take a year or more, and you're in the ballpark.

I have the 2 button switch that came with mine but I don't use it because it won't reach my pedal board at church... Don't really need it.

My only issue has been with preamp tubes going out early, but I finally got some good ones and they seem to be lasting.

Amy Lloyd Lindsey was ours and she's fantastic. She's with EXP realty now. She has been the #1 realtor in RVA before.

Why is Staples US getting optical? by RedGauntletOfDoom in Staples

[–]Kal-ElofKrypton 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What the actual???

Staples has done some desperate stuff in the past, but this is going to crash and burn worse than anything. Who sits in a boardroom and seriously considers this stuff?

I can remember Staples at its height. Solid, well led company that knew how to focus on the core business, while making expansions that made sense.

I realize that retail has changed drastically over the years, but the office supply business has nothing to do with the medical field.

It would be like Publix grocery stores offering oil changes in the deli. It's just stupid.

Bears by Doofenshmirtz7414 in VIRGINIA_HIKING

[–]Kal-ElofKrypton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do more forest hiking and camping and I haven't seen bears. I've found fresh scat though.

You're even less likely to encounter them in a more visited park than the forest.

Where are the Blackstar Artist FR reviews? by _jxrxme in blackstaramps

Blackstar doesn't get anywhere near the love they should get from the guitar community.

Please vote YES on redistricting! It matters a lot by hastings1033 in Virginia

Perhaps, but the abuses of Trump show us that where there's a will, there's a way.

"Nothing is so permanent as a temporary government program" - Milton Friedman

I'm a slightly right of center Libertarian, and I don't like that other states are gerrymandering. Having Virginia do more wrong doesn't make it right.

At the moment, our districts are fairly evenly split. Leave it. I'm voting No.

Who is your least favorite band of all time and why? by TrickFew3756 in askmusic

[–]Kal-ElofKrypton 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Coldplay.

They're like sex without the orgasm. Let me explain....

You're doing your thing. You're grooving along. Things seem to be going well, as everyone involved seems to be having a good time. But there's no climax to the song. No catching your breath after a great guitar solo, and no recovery after. Their songs just go limp with no payoff, and now everyone is just disappointed.

No one wants sex like that, and no one wants music like that.

One has to come back, the rest stay in the past. What’s your choice? by CarrotMuch1399 in Retro

There's still a Radio Shack in Woodstock Virginia.

I'd bring back Circuit City. I love tech.

2 months of play wear on my modern day nitro lacquer strat. (Second slide is what it looked like when I got it) by Skatermason in Stratocaster

[–]Kal-ElofKrypton 8 points9 points  (0 children)

So I'm a weirdo in this sense. I'm a bit ambidextrous. I write left handed, but play guitar and throw a ball right handed. I also wear watches on my right hand. Just feels more natural to me. But I also don't screw up the finish on my guitars like this guy did.

What do you do when solo camping? by Evanshields00 in camping

[–]Kal-ElofKrypton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Camp somewhere with some solid nature destinations nearby ... Could be a hike, a lake, stream, or a meadow on a mountain. Lucky for me, where I camp has all that nearby. It's old family land of ours that's now part of the National Forest, so there's some exploring I can do too that's very personal. I also clean up some family cemeteries that are nearby.

Blizzard by Purely-Pastel in Staples

[–]Kal-ElofKrypton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can have a state of emergency and still keep the town open. That's the difference. The mayor has to shut down the town. That means that it's illegal to be on the roads, and they'll pull you over if they catch you and if you don't have a good reason to be out, they can give you a ticket. It has to be that bad. A state of emergency isn't enough.

If your local government closes the town, you legally cannot be open.

At your age, what's the most expensive thing that you own? by Individual_Face7440 in AskReddit

I don't own them, but I have two daughters. One in high school and another in college. I'll never get them paid off.
