  1. I remember the 12 string, but I don't remember any others.
  2. who's gonna step up?
  3. it worked for us. Or maybe it didn't. It was a long time ago, I can't really remember.
  4. oh that fucking cunt. Dillo bragged about opening the door in his flip-flops and a visor. Then, the "station in life" bullshit. I'd wager that Mr. Flooring Contractor earned more than Dillo and/or Dillo's wife.
  5. I've heard that they are really stable. They don't go out of tune when the weather changes, etc. I've never played one.
  6. I think you're correct. It was blocking his "view" of the stucco shitbox across the street.
  7. what exactly is that relationship? Is Takamine Martin's Epiphone? And do they pay Springsteen and Bon Jovi to play them?
  8. I saw a video with somebody (don't remember who) that said when Artie was doing side-gigs in his Stern days, random people would hand him drugs nonstop.
  9. FUCK YOU ARTIE!!! Hi Fred
  10. Fucking dillo pad. what a fucking cunt. It was a flooring contractor working on the neighbor's house, and fucking Dillo was a total cunt, and when the guy got pissed Dillo said "he was upset with his station in life". This was the only time I've ever made a sock account (*until very recently). I registered as "the flooring guy" to fuck with him. He's the same cunt that got a speeding ticket and the cop made some minor typo on the ticket. He was convinced he'd get off because of the typo, and argued nonstop with a couple dozen shaggy lawyers about it. Of course, he ended up paying the fine. He and I got in some pissing match about something or other, and he hit me with "you don't live where I live". At the time, I lived in Dana Point CA, and had spent that very morning I shit you not, at a beachside cafe, sipping mimosas and watching dolphin playing in the surf. Dillo lives/lived in fucking College Station. * I registered a sock a while back and made a single post to bust @Superhero's balls in what I hope was a good-natured way. and I'm not fucking around about the psych ward thing.
  11. that's me, and it wasn't rehab, it was the psych ward.
  12. Billy rocking that giant 'fro
  13. Cady Longmire's got some fine titties.
  14. any of y'all ever seen a Martin electric in the wild? I have not.
  15. aggied it up
  16. I've never been happier to be in California. At least my state will protect me. Y'all in Texas need to prepare your collective anus. my favorite excerpt: The Supreme Court ruled 9-0 that you have to bring back Kilmar Abrego Garcia. You haven't done so. Aren’t you disobeying the Supreme Court? Well, that’s not what my people told me—they didn’t say it was, they said it was—the nine to nothing was something entirely different. Let me quote from the ruling. “The order properly requires the government to facilitate Aboriginal Garcia's release from custody in El Salvador.” Are you facilitating a release? I leave that to my lawyers. I give them no instructions. They feel that the order said something very much different from what you're saying. But I leave that to my lawyers. If they want—and that would be the Attorney General of the United States and the people that represent the country. I don't make that decision.
  17. bring along a sack of flour
  18. Thank God we have an "adult" around to issue pardons to fraudsters President Donald Trump has issued a full and unconditional pardon for a former Las Vegas City Councilwoman just weeks before she was scheduled for sentencing on multiple federal fraud convictions. Michele Fiore was convicted in October of last year of six counts of wire fraud and one count of conspiracy to commit wire fraud. A federal jury found that Fiore solicited donations she said would go toward a memorial statue honoring slain Las Vegas police officers but used the funds for, among other things, plastic surgery. Fiore also used the donation funds to pay for her basic living expenses and to fund her daughter’s wedding, according to KLAS-TV. The pardon, which was signed on Wednesday, was revealed in a court filing shortly after she announced it in a Facebook post on Thursday. “Today, I stand before you — not just as a free woman, but as a vindicated soul,” Fiore wrote. That post was later taken down, but it was archived by The Nevada Independent. Fiore had been scheduled to be sentenced on May 14. Each count of wire fraud carried a potential sentence of up to 20 years in prison. The criminal case stemmed from Fiore’s fundraising efforts in 2019 and 2020 for a statue to honor Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department officers Alyn Beck and Igor Soldo, who were killed in the line of duty in 2014. Federal prosecutors said Fiore told donors, including then-Clark County Sheriff Joe Lombardo, Nevada’s current Republican governor, that the money would fund the statue. Court records showed a private development firm actually paid for the statue. Prosecutors presented evidence that none of the donations Fiore raised went toward the project. Jurors deliberated for less than two hours following an eight-day trial at the federal courthouse in Las Vegas.
  19. Oh, Larry gets worse than that.
  20. yeah, I've mentioned before that they were selling the seats at NRT and I saw more than one person carry one on the plane.
  21. so, folks on this thread that don't pay attention to baseball may not know that the Dodgers have signed quite a few Japanese players, Shohei Ohtani being the most notable. So, of course they are getting new toilets in the locker room.
  22. You guys on the sale side ever have this problem? I'm taking a listing, I spend a ton of time looking for comps, fund about a dozen good ones, adjust them all vs. the subject, average the pricing, and then come up with a sales price for the subject and say to yourself "there's no fucking way that this house is worth 1.1 million" even though you can show your work?
