Sign in to disble this ad
hopefully this is the right place for this. a friend sent this. pretty funny:

>>Dear Abby...
>>I think my wife is cheating on me. I am a working musician and, as
you
>>would expect, travel a lot. I have been noticing strange things
>>happening when I get home. Her mobile phone rings and she steps
outside
>>to answer it or she says, "I'll call you back later". When I ask
her who
>>called she gets evasive.
>>Sometimes she goes out with friends but comes home late, getting
dropped
>>off around the corner and walking the rest of the way. I once
picked up
>>the extension while she was on the phone and she got very angry.
>>
>>A buddy of mine plays guitar in a band. He told me that my wife and
some
>>guy have been to his gigs. He wanted to borrow my guitar amp.
That's
>>when I got the idea to find out for myself what was really
happening.
>>
>>I said "sure, you can use my amp but I want to hide behind it at the
gig
>>and see if she comes into the venue and who she comes in with". He
>>agreed.
>>Saturday night came and I slipped behind my Marshall JCM800 half
stack to
>>get a good view. I could feel the heat coming off the back of the
amp.
>>It was at that moment, crouching down behind the amp, that I noticed
that
>>one of the tubes was not glowing as bright as the other 3.
>>
>>Is this something I can fix myself or do need to take it to a
technician?
>>
>>Thanks,
>>Very Concerned
