    I worked at the campus Domino's for a couple years. Actually decent money. Busy as shit ... supposedly busiest store in the country for a while. Delivered a pizza to Mary Lou Retton once. She was about like you'd expect. Oh yeah, some dragworm stole my gym bag outta my car on a delivery once. Had my favorite Texas sweats in it. I still miss those sweats, dammit. So comfy.

    Remember the "30 minutes or free" guarantee they had for a while? I remember students trying to scam that shit constantly, saying we were late when it had been 15 minutes since they called, etc. Or sometimes they'd just not answer the door to delay you, so you'd have to go find a phone and call the store, & they'd call the customer, who'd claim we hadn't been there. Then if we were 1 second late, they'd try to get the pizza for free and bitch if we wouldn't go along. Nope. Fuck off. Pay up or I'll take your pie back to the store & we'll all eat it.

    We were fast as fuck. I remember delivering a pizza across the street 4 minutes after we hung up the phone on the order. Customer was stunned.

    Yum, raw pizza.

  2. Fan of the brown channel, too. I like the clean a lot, also. Lots of clean headroom, which I don't have with my myriad of low-wattage tube amps. 

    I also used the auxiliary input to connect an ipod to break that speaker in faster. A day sitting outside, drinking beer and using it as my speaker system did wonders for that speaker.

    I was just googling some guitar designs (actually, duckduckgo-ing), and stumbled upon this. Put me down for a tittycaster.

    Glad they didn't route that for a neck pickup.

  4. If Lebron had Jordan's intensity, it wouldn't even be close. Unfortunately, he seems to let things get in his head at times. He should be unstoppable, but he stops himself. He's the most physically gifted and talented player I've ever seen, but Jordan was the greatest.

    That quote from official aggy is very telling. So baggins is too busy recruiting and having press conferences to “hammer out” a deal huh? I thought that’s what agents and lawyers were for.

    The bottom line is there is no final deal in place and one has to wonder if aggy isn’t having second thoughts over their idiotic decision. 

    Not second thoughts. John Sharp is still in the process of laundering that Hurricane Harvey relief money.

    Called Sweetwater and they said they looked into it and that company must be breaking from fender to do that price. It’s well below cost so no go. 

    Adorama blows guitars out all the time. I bought that Triple Tele from them for something like $350. They went for $800, when they first came out. When Fender discontinues a guitar, which they did with that Tele, and they've done with that Jimi Strat, Adorama seems to mark them down quickly to get rid of their inventory.

    So I went and played and listed to a better player on the SG, and two MIM Strats, one HSS and the other all singe.  I decided I like the Strat single Bridge pickup sound the best. 

    So I've narrowed down to Stratocaster or strat type guitars.

    They wanted $75 for a setup, I'll shop around some more.

    PRS has just the guitar for you.
