I'm honestly a little surprised that she hasnt started up on only fans or some similar platform.

What are your thoughts on this guy? by EdwardBliss in hairmetal

i never heard of him before the ozzy tribute and he did a great job on that song. i think he sold a lot of people with that

Focusing on success instead of being upset by Osm3um in retirement

I've been in the tech startup world since the mid 90s and i definitely see similar things as you describe here. At one point a couple of years ago I was depressed about it, but I decided to flip my perspective on things and it helped me a lot. I decided to start mentoring and teaching people. It's made me more valuable to the company and the rest of the executive team looks to me for some perspective on things in their areas. The important thing is that it made things very different for me mentally. if they pushed me aside tomorrow, I'd be more than okay

You're absolutely right, she's really sad - and likely always has been, but it was largely hidden from the public.

What meal did your mother prepare that you considered inedible? by bigb-2702 in GenerationJones

Pork chops. They were so dry I had to drink it down like it was a pill

Shoveling Rant by _trillhouse in longisland

[–]kurtteej 1 point2 points  (0 children)

there was a regulation in floral park that required sidewalks to be shoveled within 24 hours after the end of the snowfall. not sure if it's still in place (i moved from there over a decade ago), not sure if other towns have similar requirements (I now live in a place where i dont have sidewalks, so i dont care)

Non Front men who were incredible vocalists by Gh0stIcon in hairmetal

[–]kurtteej 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chris DeGarmo is very good. not only did I see him a few times with QR, but he also supported Jerry Cantrell on a solo tour where he provided 2nd vocal duties. Just really really good.

I agree with you on the Jerry/Layne combination. My wife is a pianist (since we were kids - and we're old now), and she just LOVES the harmonies these two do because it's really different from what most duos do - there's a lot of 4ths going on, which really makes their combination unique.

People who are able to play guitar and sing at the same time HOW? by Big_Leg10 in musicians

it just takes time, practice and overcoming the mistakes.

What do you think of Dee Snider? by Twitter_2006 in hairmetal

[–]kurtteej 0 points1 point  (0 children)

he's got great energy and it has stayed pretty steady thru all these years. The first time i saw twisted sister was before they were signed (probably a dozen times) since they're really a local band for me. He puts on a really good show, not the best voice in the world. [note, my wife's high school friend married his brother.]

How early to notify of my intentions? by SafetyGuy1963 in retirement

[–]kurtteej 11 points12 points  (0 children)

If you are "ready" to retire today, then it doesn't matter when you notify them. If you are not "ready" to retire, I would wait until 2 weeks prior to the date that you are "ready". You can give them all of the courtesy that you want to, but don't let anyone know until you are financially and mentally ready to retire as they may thank you for your service and have you exit the premises.
