  1. Epicurean makes (or I guess probably brands and sells) those same richlite boards https://www.amazon.com/Epicurean-Kitchen-Cutting-Board-Natural/dp/B0008221BG/ref=asc_df_B0008221BG?mcid=323699b5123838b0b975233072881386&tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=693711674149&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=1314856935682145422&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9009718&hvtargid=pla-307285155066&th=1 My favorite are these rubber cutting boards https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000KL7QA6/ref=sspa_dk_detail_0?pd_rd_i=B000KL7QA6&pd_rd_w=fya6K&content-id=amzn1.sym.8c2f9165-8e93-42a1-8313-73d3809141a2&pf_rd_p=8c2f9165-8e93-42a1-8313-73d3809141a2&pf_rd_r=Y83XY8F7J6SD36M9VH94&pd_rd_wg=wLwq9&pd_rd_r=819d35a3-ecaa-4bb6-92e0-134b51facaa2&s=industrial&sp_csd=d2lkZ2V0TmFtZT1zcF9kZXRhaWw&th=1 soft/easy on knives and dry quickly. We have a couple of those epicurean guys that my wife likes to use (because she can throw them in the dishwasher) but I always pull out the rubber board.
  2. Do you ever start to let on to your wife how much of a degenerate internetist you’ve spent your life being and only just catch yourself?
  3. Taking the trip down memory lane of 10,000 Burpees in 2023. For me, a side effect of this was that it made me really pay attention to wtf I was doing that was hurting my back. I ended up moving my xbox into my office with the aeron chair after realizing that sitting on the game room couch for any length of time was making my back sore. Past that, I didn't struggle with injuries, but the motivation to continue to do this every single day was hard. I did 15 in the morning and 15 in the evening, and even though it was only... under a minute? doing burpees sucks and it sucked every time. trying to finish my chores in the evening or get ready in the morning and the... oh fuck right, the burpees. I'll be curious if you have the same struggle - it seems like even if you get to where you can rattle off 100 pushups, it'll suck to have to do that.
  4. I’m a fairly passive listener of Sarah Shook and the Disarmers but just saw this - breaking up the band, I assume she’ll continue solo or put together some new group
  5. We need a spreadsheet
  6. We need true weirdos in the world. Hope David Byrne is ok.
  7. I've got my strat off the rack and next to my desk right now. Everybody should have a good strat. That seems like a good price too. I guess part of getting old is remarking on the effects of inflation but I was googling the other day to double check my recollection that when I got my '98 American Standard the market rate was below $1000. And I guess now the equivalent is the.... American Professional II, which is damn near $2k? Anyways, great guitar, olympic white is a great color although you almost need a left handed bridge. Tortoiseshell would look good, mint or... gold might look good? The guard on your big apple strat is a dark tortoiseshell right?
  8. What is your goal - to supplement her band instruction because the band program isn’t great? To have her learn theory to …. be her best musician self? Has she expressed interest in theory specifically? If it’s just the first thing, I’d shell out for lessons. Learning theory is a bit like… learning to diagram sentences and maybe spell really well. You kinda need to do it a bit to learn the instrument, but if you’re trying to dive in deep, the ultimate goal might inform how you’d go about doing it.
  9. I’m kinda surprised Sam Torn is still alive. He was old when I was a kid.
  10. I always 1000% assumed that decals were underneath a layer of something? I guess not always, or maybe just that stuff is that fragile.
  11. these are load bearing teles I just did the same googling I did a while back that indicates that string swings (and Hercules)’are generally considered to be safe for nitro. I would do the exact same thing with a high value vintage guitar but I’m remaining comfortable with my Gibsons on the hanger. i did fuck in the headstock of my J45 a bit with a capo. Stupid stupid. I saw a video where Isbell lamented fixing up the fender decal on a vintage tele by leaving a snark on there.
  12. Dammit do I actually need to get those for my nitro homies? I thought string swings were made with some material that didn’t fuck with it? Obviously none of mine are a 59. I bet you put it on a stud too 🙄
  13. Oh that’s cool that they have a thing in Texas now. I went to Ozark in Arkansas as a kid and it was really some of the best times of my life.
  14. I’ll trade you one framed copy of use your illusion ii for one of your guitars my choice
  15. Wait in this photo the Guns N’ Roses album is the piece de resistance?
  16. Was really hoping for more snow but fun morning regardless
  17. can you not spend the whole flight flirting with your much younger female copilot and losing track of your airspeed until you crash the plane into someone's house?
