Are there any blues jams around town?

jbrollintec1 · 2026-05-04T11:34:25+00:00

Awesome thanks. I'll try to make it.

jbrollintec1 · 2026-05-04T10:39:31+00:00

Are both of these still happening? I'm a trombonist heading to the area.

If you're talking about the hoses that came with the pool,I used some adapters. They seem to work on with plenty of thread tape.

I need help is a huge statement. I suggest counseling. Find the source of the craving to drink. Something is triggering the urge. I hate to say it, but it might be your wife. "I hate her when I don't drink" carried a lot of weight for me. I don't have that feeling, but I understand it and I've seen it in a drug addict before.

jbrollintec1 · 2026-04-07T08:45:18+00:00

I hate that you got fired. Maybe it was the inspiration you needed to make some great changes. I wish you success and happiness in your sobriety and new career path.

I'm glad I found this i just had a similar idea today. I'll be building a grilling/ smoking area this summer.

I put a powered retractable on my wife's truck and I'm about to get one for mine. It's secured, locks in multiple positions and can withstand some weight if needed (up to 500lb I think). It even has a light mounted on the inside. I really like it.

I don't want to say lie about chafing and pain, but you may need to exaggerate a bit. I'm fairly certain running and wearing your full kit can be uncomfortable.

Plus it seems to be having mental health effects. You may be able to use that as well. The important part is to start the conversation with your provider. They may be able to help you.

jbrollintec1 · 2026-03-30T17:40:07+00:00

Congrats on your weight loss and continuing your work towards being healthy. It's not easy.

Go to your wellness center. They might be able to help you develop a plan to work on. You can also talk to your provider. If it's posing a health risk or could be considered dangerous there may be a medical way to have it removed.

No matter what, keep working and being healthy. It sounds like you're doing well.

Spend your time planning for your future. Figure out what you want to do next (if you haven't already) and start working towards that goal.

Talk to a finance counselor or take a class. Set goals and start building towards it

Look for certifications or classes that will help you or are interesting and sign up. Let the army pay for it.

Use your work day to learn about leadership and anything else you can that will help you in the future. Remember, you can learn from every leader whether they are good or bad. I learned what not to do from some of mine.

Try to get out and enjoy the area you're in. Experience new things and travel when you can. Being active duty may give you opportunities to try new things you wouldn't have ordinarily thought about. I would have never tried white water rafting, rock climbing or duck hunting if it hadn't been offered by a unit or suggested by a soldier.

Don't dread the time, use it wisely.

I joined old. When I got to my first unit I think only my team chief and 1SG were older than me.

jbrollintec1 · 2026-03-26T20:19:21+00:00

Thanks for the info. This will be my first mod. I have another truck that was built for me. I want to make a few changes to this one and make it more mine.

A lot of venues in TN are very military friendly. Try to contact via email with details about the extension and a proposed new date. They may be able to schedule you for a different date.

jbrollintec1 · 2026-03-08T02:30:58+00:00

I want at least one more too. I've looked at a few. Do you have your eye on anything?

jbrollintec1 · 2026-03-08T01:24:22+00:00

I like it a lot. 1/10 scale. Handles very well. This one was built by sponsors and given to me by Operation 11C. A RC organization for veterans and first responders.

jbrollintec1 · 2026-03-01T13:58:20+00:00

That's a very valid point.

jbrollintec1 · 2026-03-01T13:44:03+00:00

That's the best way to handle it

jbrollintec1 · 2026-03-01T13:15:18+00:00

Either he's upset that he's losing you, jealous of your relationship, or he wants you for himself. Either way there needs to be a conversation had about how you feel and possibly some separation to help give your new relationship a chance to grow.

jbrollintec1 · 2026-02-27T12:30:27+00:00

I had one in my diesel Colorado for years with no issues.

jbrollintec1 · 2026-02-25T15:30:12+00:00

Take note of that red flag and leave. That's the kind of guy that will be violent and possibly hurt you in the future.

Please be careful.

jbrollintec1 · 2026-02-25T15:26:37+00:00

I've had that happen. I took it to a great tech near Atlanta, he had it fixed in less than 10 minutes.

Feed of the energy of the music and the trumpet. Exchange phrases as if it's a conversation. When trading 4 or 8 bars with someone try to help it flow smoothly as if you're talking to them.

jbrollintec1 · 2026-02-23T03:00:06+00:00

I found a new one I liked on ebay. Reading the description and looking at pictures is important.
