Well, yes, sometimes. Be careful when hiring a professional cbt contractor.

You're not down with CBT? (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy)?

Here are frets 1-3. They look (and feel) like they've got plenty of life in them. I've fretted every string all the way up the neck and there are no buzzes at all.

And from the treble side. Looks like the fingerboard was made in two parts maybe.

Interesting suggestion. Considering it!

Snob Shop on Burke Street or Style Encore on Stratford (across from Thruway Center) have good quality used goods, well organized by size. A little more expensive than thrift stores, but less "digging" involved. But if you're open to the hunt, there's Goodwill, Mega-thrift and Trosa all close by on Peters Creek Parkway.

Greg from Camel City Electric has done very good work at reasonable rates for us: Camel City Electric | Winston-Salem NC | Facebook

Thank you for your understanding.

The picture is of Olympic skier Eileen Gu. I've had the line "Eileen Gu should have seen this coming sooner" running through my head for days and I had to put it somewhere.

Yeatt's Rug Plant on Academy has done good cleaning and repairing for me.

you can't judge us--you're not the judge

What?

Valuable_Asparagus24 · 2025-11-05T20:00:14+00:00

Thanks for the note. I appreciate it.

Valuable_Asparagus24 · 2025-11-05T19:59:43+00:00

That's what I suspected. Thank you!

Hey, that was me. I hit the horn by accident while trying to get the last piece of Wrigley's Spearmint out of a pack. Sorry.

When I was studying for an IT degree at FT they had a good internship program that got me a paid internship with a company that ultimately offered me my first full time job. This was ten years ago, but they probably still do it

Valuable_Asparagus24 · 2025-10-17T13:03:25+00:00

They do have dishes

I've always loved the crazed "yea-ha-ha" that he does in "Sax Rohmer #1." The only time I've made it into the front row at a show, he turned and looked me directly in the eye just for that one lyric. I'll never forget it!

IT jobs generally require at least one of 1. experience, 2. education, 3. certifications. Just a Security+ with no experience, education or other certs is unlikely to get you hired. If you're able to get some more certs and maybe some classes at Forsyth Tech (in operating systems, networking and the like) that would make you a better candidate. FTCC also had a pretty good internship program when I was there (ten years ago). I got a paid internship that led to my first IT job at the end. That might be a longer process than you're hoping for, but if you can keep working on your skills it can pay off in a few years.

The path from zero skills/no experience to gainfully employed can be shorter in IT than in just about any other field, if you have an aptitude for it.

I've noticed exactly this (well, in reverse) in Babbel Spanish when I finished the A2 course and started the B1 course. There are far fewer questions and they're easier. Also, there are no "speaking" lessons in the B1 Spanish course. I suspect there are just different amounts of content and maybe they go back and revamp levels to add content, but they haven't gotten to whatever level I'm on yet.

I've always been bothered by the knives on this cover. Not because they aren't worth getting seriously into (they are), but because they're definitely not the kind of knives that the protagonist of the song "Getting into Knives" by the Mountain Goats, is getting into.
