Brewed up a batch of Ruination IPA. MMmmmmm…
A classic “bowling ball” finish - when Fender came out with in - in the 90’s? - they got a lot of attention. James Tyler, a high-end Super-Strat builder calls his version “burning water.”
I played some guitar over the weekend, tweaking the controls on my fuzzbox and amp - I am looking for a cleaner, tighter version of distortion to augment the basic sound of my tweed amp. A bit Stones-ier if you will. Always fun to explore.
Drove to Conner Praire Historical Park in Indianappolis for a huge Civil War weekend. I helped teach many people about the Union navy gunboats.
Good times.
I smoked salmon for the first time last night. I was neurotic and obsessive through the whole process but it turned out fine.
Now if someone would just give me a suitcase full of fish, I’d be set to go.
Sunday was my first day volunteering at the zoo. Wow, it’s hard work! Seriously, it’s backbreaking labor.
Dodging all the poo flung at you by monkeys?
I’m getting back into bowling after a 24 year layout. Man, I have missed that sport so much.
I put in my first real garden. Spent Saturday digging up the backyard and planting tomatoes and peppers.
Also worked on a few eggs (pysanky) for the Straight Dope Craft Exchange. They didn’t go as well as I had hoped, so it may take longer than I had hoped getting them to Trucelt.
Mid-eighties, I think. But I always associate the style with Ibanez & Steve Vai thanks to the cover of Passion and Warfare.
No, picking it up off the floor! Every single animal has to have its exhibit area and offstage area cleaned, sanitized, rinsed, and squeegeed dry every single day. Not to mention fed and all.
I went to the store and bought more bourbon.
What?
I cleaned and oiled all of my handguns.
Do you know how to put a Ruger 22/45 back together?
