  1. So our lab mix likes to bathe our Schnoodle, and now every time she does, thanks to @BHMCruiser, I have to say to myself what a good mother she would be. And so I took a picture (because everyone wants to see a picture of this). But the picture I wish I'd gotten was the yellow one locking the grey one while the big grey one started humping the yellow one. That would definitely be the Christmas card this year Caption: He would have been such a good father.
  2. We still have a few, thankfully. And that's a capital idea. Super Mercado Monterrey is right down the street from my office and it's definitely been a minute since I've hit it up. No finer avocados in all of our fare city than the ones they sell in the warmer months.
  3. I'm in Tyler. So no HEB unfortunately (is it even open?). But it shouldn't be too hard to locate.
  4. Yeah, I'll confess I didn't stop off at a separate store to score the good stuff. Next time, for sure. I'm such a Fiesta slut when it comes to dried spices.
  5. Speaking of late adaptors, I'm sure I'm not the only Surly poster who had one of these in the car for the old Discman.
  6. "Thicker than zoo glass" was solid.
  7. Pretty pleased with how it turned out.
  8. I'm making the goulash from up-thread. Pics to follow. Also, on the fat between 80/20 and lean, the answer is 10% more. /signed, an English Major
  9. Great jumped-up, bald-headed, Jesus-Palamena! /I searched for "Seems Like Old Times: "Holy Shi . . . I beg your pardon, Governor." Did not even see your Jaws reference before I posted my Jaws reference. Bad Doppelganger!
  10. They called. You still owe them money.
  11. Yes. It's close to the 335, but it's less bulky.
  12. I definitely only heard the second version up until now.
  13. I'm sorry to hear about your step-son's troubles. The only thing I'd ever heard about Kratom was that it was what people used to substitute for opioids. No bueno. As for synthetically produced THC, are you talking about things like K2 or Spice as opposed to hemp-derived THC? The former two were criminalized in this area years ago (long before the 2018 Hemp Bill). But in any event, whatever happens with the hemp industry, I hope they set age restrictions, which they have, albeit by executive order. That seems like a no-brainer. As to your tl, dr: Yep.
  14. I had a gold-top Epiphone Casino several years ago that I just couldn't get along with. So I sold it. I felt like I'd really like the P90s in a solid body guitar. That Casino just played like a damned cigar box 90% of the time. The only time I really liked it was when I was playing it through a cranked Bassman. But everything sounds good through a cranked Bassman. So this is my return to the the P90 realm.
  15. List is $1,799. While I was browsing, SW rep called and knocked off $150. The lowest price used I found was $1,200 plus $75 shipping. So I could have saved some $$ with some patience and haggling, but $40 per month is less than a family trip to Whataburger. I'll pay more than that and get it off the books quickly, but at 0%, I have a hard time turning down free money. Plus, I'll get a good setup and some candy out of the deal. For comparison's sake, these were $1,200 new a few years ago. That's what I get for waiting. Also, I had two to choose from. I went with 4 oz. heavier (8 lbs 14 oz) just to get the darker fret board. Priorities. My Les Paul Traditional weighs in at well over 10 lbs (doesn't feel that heavy when playing). So I ain't a scared.
  16. I'll have to stage one with the new arrival gets here.
  17. We definitely had one of those 8-track players with the plunger on it. Really satisfying.
  18. My parents had one as well. Nine-and-a-half feet long and probably 400 lbs empty. Reloaded with McIntosh gear and a Dual 1245 in 1976. I couldn't help but rescue it from the estate sale when my mom moved out of her house. I restored/serviced everything including the McIntosh speakers. It sounds pretty incredible now. Never had an 8-track deck. Middle section used to house a small Sony TV, but it's record storage now.
  19. I'd rather intone.
  20. Well this will put me at 9 electrics in house. So, while I may be a slouch, I'm no tremendous slouch.
  21. Forgive me Surly, for I have sinned. It has been seven years since my last guitar-purchase confession. I coveted a guitar I have lusted after for many years. I succumbed to to 0% financing and will pay $40 per month for a relatively short period of time. In penance, I shall perform 20 rock-god stances and 15 guitar faces ever day. I will light candles and incense. I will howl at the moon. Amen.
  22. I'll have to think about the rest, but my first 8-track: First Cassette: Quiet Riot's Metal Health First CD: SRV Live Alive First LP: Either the Flash Gordon Soundtrack, Chipmunk Punk, or J. Geils Band's Freeze Frame. There are a lot of movie soundtracks I probably had (and still have). /and yes, I still have that 8-track. That's probably the second iteration since I wore the first one out.
  23. Good luck. Sorry that happened to you guys. It happened to me on the way to a UT game with my son. Some fool rear-ended me and hauled ass. No damage thankfully, but sure did piss me off.
