    This series looked like Woodyball. Losing sucks, but the way they shit themselves in this series is far more troubling.

    That pickguard needs one more screw hole.

    One of my last impressionable memories of my dad was when he came into my barn shed with a harmonica and started playing, sort of checking the acoustics of the spray foam insulation. He hadn't played in decades but used to do it as a hobby in his younger days and had just bought a brand new set. That day he really surprised me with his playing, he was a lot better than I remembered. I wish I had a recording of it.

    Do any of y'all get spam emails from some Paul Mastin thing about pictures? I googled it and couldn't find any corresponding info.

    Rangers need a couple of relievers. LeClerc always looks like he's about to hurl, even when he gets through an inning OK. He just ain't got the mentality. They need a legit closer.

    Birding

    I already have Cooper's hawks nailing birds around my feeders. I'm sure Owls will too. I think the deal is to give birds some cover nearby to get away from predators, but without giving predator birds too much cover to hide and watch the feeders. It can be a challenge, but hawks and owls gotta eat, too. And then there are cats.

    No, I got kinda cheesed about not getting a better deal offered to upgrade to the new version. From what I was reading the upgrades they made weren't going to really make much of a difference for me. I'll probably try it eventually.

    I also have the newer version of Nikon NX studio that would be fine for adjusting RAW images before JPG editing, if I ever wanted to shoot RAW.

    Adobe waited until I actually would have payed for a newer version of photoshop to shit on us and force a bullshit subscritpion only service. Fuck that shit. So they lost me twice when they could have made back that money from using it for decades for "trial purposes." I have Affinity Photo, but don't use it much. It has some great features, but it takes me a lot longer to edit pics than I did with oldass versions of Photoshop. I may revert back to it at some point when I'm willing to tackle the learning curve some more, but it's lacking in shortcuts and ease of use. I use GIMP most of the time, have it customized a bit with some keyboard shortcuts and have familiarized myself with it enough that it's about 80 percent as good as PS was. I can live with it. I really miss having my own custom actions to save a lot of time, but fuck Adobe.

    Swainson's hawk. I used to have pairs nesting on my place (uncommon) for about 20 years straight before the big road expansion in front of the property a few years ago. They are one of the major birds that really got me deeply interested in birds.

    Check out Tom Bukovac's Home Schoolin' youtube channel. Using his thumb to play bass notes is one of his big things that opens up a lot of chord possibilities all over the neck. Start with the early episodes, Corona Lessons, going into the Home Schoolin' re-branding. Most of the essentials are right there. I'm not saying I can do any of that shit, but I intend to work on it. I dig his style. It resonates with me.

    Texas BBQ

    Shoepf's definitely upped their game, while Miller's has sold out, but still gets the crowds. I'd take Shoep's all day long between the two nowdays, though I can't afford either one very often.

    I've been shooting some, but I find I increasingly dread editing and tend to put it off and just forget it. I've posted a few bird pics here and there in the birding thread. Here are a few other recent to fairly recent things.

    I made my first Reverb purchase ever last week. But it was for a friend who didn't want his ol' lady to find out, LOL. Just a pedal, no biggie. Good seller. I guess I need to leave feedback or something. I just hope it doesn't open up a wormhole for buying more shit I don't need. I know, that's not supposed to be how this works.

    Cool! I've never seen one with a belly-button before.

    2023 NFL DRAFT

    Some shithead will draft him in the sixth or seventh round. It will probably be Jerry.

    When is DeGrom's first Ranger injury commemorative bobble-head night?
