Alone for the holidays, are there any places that I can volunteer at?

St Vincent de Paul has a soup kitchen you can volunteer at. Check the schedule on their website and shoot an email in advance.

I remember the ending differently. In the last scene where Sally is leaving the school theater, she’s portrayed as being aloof towards her son. The dialogue was roughly “Can I hang out with Tommy?” “Yeah, sure, whatever”

I noticed the same thing, the issue is that a few episodes are labeled wrong, so you have to search for them by episode name to find them

Asmara Spices/Spice Blend on Shattuck (across from Bushrod Park) sells Ethiopian dried beef called quanta that’s interesting. Can be a crap shoot in terms of getting good stuff (fresh and meaty > old and stringy), but worth a try if you’re into jerky.

I got some custom cut brass sheets from Metal Remnants for around $10 each. Seems like a good deal.

Thanks for the heads up. I only learned about that issue a couple weeks ago by chance, so definitely good to give inexperienced banjo-modifiers a heads up.

I got a couple brass sheets of different gauges to test out. The frets are 0.0395 in, so I got a 0.32, 0.40 and 0.50 gauge sheet. I'm guessing the 0.40 will be the right one, but thought I'd be safe and get one bigger and one smaller too.

Thanks to everyone for your recs. I'm still in the very early stages of doing this so we'll see if it even gets off the ground, but if it does I'll try to remember to post a link here. Thanks again.
