  1. LMAO. $1.3B. That aside, she's self-made, and she isn't part of the government pulling strings aka Elon Musk, who is worth vastly more, but hey you do you. Good luck with the kidneys.
  2. Recently I heard 6 months, but that could be inaccurate. I'll call him. (I can't believe he's still in business, I first took him a guitar in the early 90s.)
  3. Who's the best luthier for vintage acoustics in Austin? All I know is Mark Erlewine and he's historically slammed.
  4. Well, FSU may be historically inept in Omaha, but they're better than A&M. Aim high(er)!
  5. Every time I hear that song I think it's Lyle Lovett singing over a disco track.
  6. I'm not sure I've had their pork ribs, but I ordered one of those dino ribs one night -- holy shit. That was pearly gates level 'Q.
  7. The irony is that running havoc in a big physical league MIGHT have had a real chance of success. It comes down to the tradeoff between what your team can do they can't deal with vs what they can do you can't deal with.
  8. Yeah, we're up almost 50% over the last 18 months (switched brokers). No complaints whatsoever.
  9. We're one insult away from bank stubs.
  10. Yes, the nylon strings are quite odd. By "refurbished" I meant stripping and refinishing, getting any mismatched parts period correct, etc. I honestly don't know what his plans are for it. He certainly doesn't need the money, so "killing any value" may be irrelevant.
  11. So this is the latest term of the day I had to look up. Stop it.
  12. So how does he assess value, and whether it's worth getting it refurbished?
  13. Jackpot! He found this stamp: 0-15 83410
  14. It was originally his grandfather's guitar. He estimates it's 1940's-ish vintage.
  15. Those beans do look pretty good. Brisket, too.
  16. A buddy/bandmate just inherited this guitar from his Dad, who recently passed. Any thoughts on age/model? I'm thinking something like an 00-18? (No label.)
  17. Claiming fiscal responsibility is peak Aggie.
  18. Yeah, but they claim it adapts your outside hose bib, which is fed by the water utility.
  19. LOL I had my locations mixed up. Delete user.
  20. Ah. I thought he was writing in the moment, in situ.
  21. I got freebies to their last ACL taping. I didn't know anything about the band. I came away thinking "well, I don't need to buy any of their music". That said, a whole bunch of people were having a really great time, so I ain't judging.
  22. See, I thought Sonic Highways was weak. It was a bad premise -- write a song in a week, wasn't it?
  23. 5 second call? nm wrong game Dammit.
