Maybe he meant to say “Cooper’s,” as in BBQ. -

Lots of birdies out there. Scottie is going to have to play well to maintain his lead. -
Thanks for the insight on Rogan. At 20 minutes, he hadn't even woken up, but at the half hour mark he started engaging, and I see the appeal of the long form interview. Ultimately, Rogan was agreeable, but he threw out some really broad and silly generalizations. I think Talarico may be too good and kind of this political world. I was a bit disappointed that he didn't push back on a few issues. He just seemed to accept Rogan's statements that cancel culture should be blamed exclusively on the left and that the Dems are anti-patriotism and anti-male. But maybe that's just Rogan being engaging and Talarico trying to set an example so more left-wing folks go on the show. To that extent, Talarico was fantastic.

Yeah, Media Days changed so many thing on so many squads, we needed a new list.

Sure, man. I hope it helps to understand why someone would bother with different tunings after they have spent all this time mastering the major scale and modal patterns in standard tuning. To take it full circle to your triad study, take that last idea that you can use open 4th, 5th and 6th string as a drone and play melodically on the 1st, 2nd and 3rd strings -- use triad patterns in the key of D on the 1st, 2nd and 3rd strings over the droned 4th/5th/6th strings. Each color grouping here with a root on the 3rd string is a triad in the key of D. Walk the scale as triads up and down the fretboard. Play chord progressions with these triads. Do it while droning the open D power chord on the 4th, 5th and 6th strings. Come up with a simple 4 note melody all on the 3rd string. Play that melody all on the 3rd string a few times. Then start incorporating the other two notes of the triad associated with each note in your melody. Do that a few times. Then arppegiate those triads in your melody. Then consider how you could have played that in standard tuning. It would have been much more difficult if not impossible. Last thing I would encourage you to consider after you have done this and grok the previous paragraph. If you consider what you have played and a map of the D major scale to the guitar fretboard (in drop D tuning): You can visually see that what you are playing is: In the scale of D major Every 3 note triad you play is a chord Every 3 note triad you play uses a note from the scale of D major What you played is demonstrating a fundamental concept of music theory for music rooted in the 12 note chromatic scale (and diatonic scales made from it.) Every chord in a key is made up of notes in the scale corresponding to that key. In this case, its the D major scale. Every chord you are playing is in the key of D major and is made up of a note from the D major scale. And a chord in the key of D major is just a 3 note subset of the scale. Anyway, scale/mode shapes and CAGED in standard tuning are a great way to understand the guitar fretboard as it applies to most of the music we hear on the radio. But there are other ways of understanding the fretboard as it applies to music (like your triad study), and these can really help the music you make not sound like you are stuck in 5-7 vertical patterns on the fretboard.

Seems like Benjamin has been slip sliding away. I guess Oregon is just going to take 13 safeties this cycle. -

I read Jamail’s autobiography several years ago, and as he started telling the story about that case, I thought, “WTF, this is a bullshit claim.” I forget the particular facts that he emphasized to show the city should be liable, but I remember at the end of the story saying, “Holy shit, he’s right, the city was negligent!” It was more impressive than Texaco v. Pennzoil.

Hopefully, this helps Privateer Rum. I am waiting for the Halloween costumes. This one is so easy. “No honey, it’s not an affair, I just need to borrow that guy’s wife for Halloween 👻!”

Is Walsh the one there was home cam recording of him verbally abusing his pregnant wife or am I thinking of a different incel?

Watching it now. I'm kind of ambivalent to Billy Joel's music. I recognize he's written some damn fine melodies & pop songs, & has been an entertainer of fine standing, but I've never owned any of his records or seen him live. But he does come across as fairly open & reflective in this doc. I don't know enough about his story to know if he's whitewashing his past, but he doesn't seem to shy away from talking about many of his past mistakes in part one.

His other schools he’s looking at all have marching bands too except one - CU, Oregon, Washington, Cal, UCLA, UCSB. He’s dropping Michigan and Georgia. We wanted to add Arky but I can’t. He didn’t want to add Tenn. Fla never caught his interest. no interest in the east coast at all.

He plays trumpet. He will keep at it, in fact depending on where UTSA will let CAP students (if he gets it and can make it to UTSA) in their marching band then he’s def doing that. he’s considering a double major already, I’ll push the music major across to him as well. He made first of four bands in his high school as a sophomore but he’s not in the top of the first band even as a senior mostly because he’s a well rounded kid and half the band year he’s got white gloves on and his trumpet is collecting dust.

Looking to go with my 2 sons, aged 12 and 14. Wondering what best approach for this game will be to try and get tickets for best value. I'm thinking prices will probably go up closer to game month/week given the hype. Some halfway decent seats are sub-$500 right now. But prices for Michigan fell the night before the game last year to the $200s, not sure if this one will given no resume to refer to and the rabid fan bases, plus recent history in CFB playoff.

Bump. Still trying to find a financial advisor that is highly competent in tax optimization during retirement using Roth conversions and optimized spending plans, taking into account IMRAA, net investment tax, Roth seasoning rules, etc. Most of the advisors I've been exposed to either operate only under an all-inclusive AUM fee for total financial planning (which we don't need today; maybe down the line yes), or are not particularly sharp enough to really understand the complexities of the tax planning.
