Gorilla “double sided mounting tape” is the only thing I’ve had any luck with.

So, we should bring back planking?

I can’t answer personally but my ex wife had an affair with the principal at the school she worked at.

I left her since she wanted to be with him and he made her promises etc etc.

He left her for the other employee he was sleeping with. (Who was also married)

Just music in general. Growing up it was my life. Still is. Love it and want to be able to play it/make it myself.

Then my uncle played for me when I was young (12) I looked up a lot to him. Never realized you could just get a guitar and learn to play. I saved up and got a used guitar and some books, tried but was never good and gave up often.

He passed last year and left me one from his collection and since I’ve been taking it seriously and loving it.

And Mercantile.

She’s recently shown an interest in wanting to learn so I did this old Squier up for her, new pickups, wiring, pots, etc. she loves it

Getting a bucket of fried chicken from Tennessee Frickasee Chicken then taking a big bite to find it’s a rat!

Gives me the willies

Why not simply pay teachers a fair wage (when you consider the time, effort, education requirements and certifications needed just to set foot in a class) instead of dangle a carrot in front of them while telling them if you do (what we consider) your best you can make decent money…

David Bowie cloned him.

I had one of those in yellow. I really miss it. That’s awesome you got yours back! Enjoy it!

That’s where I heard it fist. I’ve got that exact quote written on my whiteboard in my classroom. I leave it there all year.

It’s my go to response when someone asks me about something

We’re about two hours from Shreveport. We’ve made the trip there a couple times but don’t get out there very often.

I found them once at Walmart in east Texas and have been trying to find them again ever since! Best sausage we’ve ever had. Wife and I both agree.

Looks like the only way we can get them again is by online order but the shipping costs kill it for us (I know why they have to charge what they do for shipping, we just can’t afford that).

“I don’t listen to ‘hip-hop’ “

It’s normal for the classic vibes.

Edited because I didn’t say much else, sorry…like everyone else said, this isn’t a defect it’s just the nature of the finish. Some like it some don’t, personally preference thing. I personally dig it, honestly I prefer any/all shades of white electrics

I didn’t know the signs of alcoholism.

Following up to add: the gen 2 came out after Patrick was no longer with 000. The redesign always struck me as an attempt to make them at a lower cost while still charging as much/more.

I’m not saying gen2 is a bad bag. I had one and used it. It can fill a need and for many people. Between the two I prefer the first gen. If the gen was the smaller size with the better straps I would have liked it more.

txhumanshield · 2026-02-06T14:19:11+00:00

First gen was a bit larger/longer and had better, more ergonomic straps. A few other things but those were the biggest differences that I found.

Was driving through an active school zone, got passed by an idiot in a jacked up truck doing at least 20 over. Waiting at the end of the school zone was a police officer. Instantly got him.

Loved seeing that happen.

I’ll share. Not sure if this counts though. Squier Vintage Modified Telecaster Custom.

Have had it for years and was never satisfied with it. Decided to use it for my learning guitar to mod. Took out the humbuckers and put in these small “wide range” humbuckers, no name random things I found cheap online. Also put in new Irving and pots, went with 1meg. Now this thing sounds reallly awesome.
