    On my birthday, my wife actually said, “I still need you and I’m still feeding you.” and she’s in the camp of acknowledging the importance of the Beatles while not actually liking much of their music.

    On a personal note the last 12 days have included my 64th birthday, our 45th anniversary, and testing positive for the ‘VID after a night of fever and coughing. Still alive but fever goes in and out and joints hurt. And it’s not just old age.

    We don’t have one where we live, but we’re in an historic district and we’d have to get approval to change the front of the house. Nobody cares about the back.

    Back when I went to sea, I would get a mild headache the first day and be fine after that. Some people used to try to get other people to puke by eating stinky canned fish or smoking cigars near them.

    Early in my Navy life, we, the lovely bride and I, thought it would be cool to buy an ocean going tug and steam around the Pacific. That was prior to learning that she could get sea sick sitting on a surfboard in minimal swells.

    I worked with a guy who liked to refer to his wife as his ex-girlfriend. I don’t think she found it amusing either.

    The nut width is the same as a Jazz (1.5”). The depth is/seems shallower. The finish is satin and it was fine for me. Some folks use the term “broomstick” to describe certain necks and that’s kind of how it felt to me. Can’t really say much more about it.

    Gibson bought Mesa 2 years ago didn’t they? That’s pretty solidly in the amp game.
