  1. Thanks, guys, they both look great.
  2. Lessee, from Townes VZ to J.Taylor to Bach, now it’s White Room, Foxy Lady, How Many More Times. And Distortion. It’s like I’ve won a prize, not even my birthday. My Fender 112 does not deliver much distortion, or I haven’t figured out the contour knob. Is there a great foot box that delivers mucho distortion? I want to crank up that opening distorted and vibrating E on FL. Do it for a minute, like Billy Gibbons did when playing it live.
  3. I did not have to take tech writing, but had some speech/debate option so took that my final semester. Along with freshman psychology to get that last non tech requirements into my 132 hour sack. Both quite good.
  4. First lesson on electric ina half hour. About effing time.
  5. Not many 18 yr olds with that smooth intelligence, confidence, and credibility. One more of those signals….2.5 months to go.
  6. Wow. Looked it up. Pretty interesting but, well, so far as looks go, well, I’m full at the moment. Not sure I want my practice struggles recorded. That’s the chickenshit in me.
  7. Glad to have that clarified. I just find this monolithic boomer or any generational broad brush painting to be beneath regarded.
  8. Didn’t he go to LSU? That was. A great LA team for a while, so many stars. Fuck him.
  9. Yep, Mag rat has been institutionalized. Is it already in the Oxford?
  10. Yes, for a while anyone in college got a deferment. Those were dropped to enable the big build up. I never said all of them served. But if half the eligible did serve, that is some big numbers. My point was not that all boomers served, rather that all who served were boomers. And, I missed the satire badly and made a fool of myself.
  11. I was #51 for 1973. Read it in the Texan waiting for the second semester Physics prof to show. Draft ended in March.
  12. But the issue was boomers, and I missed the satire. Half of the boomers are on your team.
  13. Every Viet Nam draftee was a boomer. I’ve seen no data that voluntary unemployment (excluding retirement), is different, when corrected for normalizing factors, among boomers than preceding generations. Hate is no substitute for thought. That is the other team.
  14. He has. But, 7 win Steve is the deeper analysis.

    LBGTQ

    I’m so sold by the NASCAR video.
  16. With my current lame ass struggles with Bouree, let me say, in a good way. That your post turned my brain to mush. Just happens to be where my capabilities/lack of lie.

    LBGTQ

    Multiply this times 10’s of thousands of Texas’ best and brightest, to borrow an old, merit obsessed term, who will vacate this place as soon as they can. In the 70’s my time in Austin made me a much more open person, esp to those who were not long haired head banging engineering students (maybe 2 or 3 of us). Cosmic cowboys and shit. Now, who would even want to go to school here, if morality were their strongest personal guide?
  18. Where does a fella get such shoes?
  19. That black is really nice.
  20. Well, my rep Jayapal has made her complaints on behalf of the progressive conference. I wish she would see the power of this reasoning. It strengthens the demo case nationwide. She doesn’t need to score any more points for Seattle progressives.
  21. The Russian share of the hundreds of thousands dead would be ok, pretty good, possibly flat out good.
  22. We started giving the annual limit to our kids. After 10 years they could make the down on a house with half left over. Also involved each of them as trustees so they mentally participate, I.e. we are all aligned. Fact is, you can probably route some bigger payment to the target person, if you are careful and don’t care about repayment. We also invested something like your amount to a kids business, which vaporized. We have a repayment contract that they have assigned last place in priorities, business wise. So now we sit with the dilemma of, should we report this as a loss, it could trigger a tax bill for them. I suggest you not arrange things such that you have to face this choice.
  23. No problem with either choice. If one were an R voter. Same with a steaming pile of shit, death to all left handers, or the end of the world as we know it. They feel fine with the blood soaked R.
