Get off my LAWN! "Grumpy Old Farts"

[Bobhmcs]

Brings to mind the question: As most of the Old Testament stories refer to "sons", with whom-or what-were they procreating?

So Adam and Eve were the first couple according to my parish rabbi and had 2 sons Cain and Abel. Cain killed Abel whereupon he went to the land of Nod and took a wife. Now where did she come from?
That's all the spiritual guidance you get from me.
Glad to be back once again. Yup hospital, infection, and Hold 'Em in pediatrics.

Listen to this: Genesis 4-16. “And Cain went out from the
presence of the Lord, and dwelt in the land of Nod, on the
East of Eden. And Cain knew his wifeY ’ Where the hell did
she come from?

BRADY

Who?


DRUMMOND

Mrs. Cain. Cain’s wife. If, “In the beginning” there were
only Adam and Eve, and Cain and Abel, where’d this extra
woman spring from? Ever figure that out?

Sorry @mikeoso I should kept catching up.

And here is the first thing I did when I got home.
1977 to 1980 Fender 100% Mahogany body, American Vintage Geddy Lee pickups, Gun Street Volume Bleed wiring harness, Blackened Maple Neck with Rosewood Fretboard, Grover Vintage 142C4 tuners, Hipshot Kicka@# Highmass Bridge, and sound that is to Saweet!
Here she is.

Here is the second thing I did.

Finally after spending time in the British Isles I learned 2 things.
First in the yards of many London residences there are signs that still say "Americans, Overpaid, Oversexed, and Over Here!"
Second there are Peat Bogs. Now peat is a combination of rotting vegetable matter and cattle excrement. BUT,,, it is also the primary roasting material for the barley in Single Malt Scotch! Yay Peat! Yay Peat!
With that said it is time for medication (washed down with a generous portion of Glenlivet) and nap time!
Yay Peat!
Great to hear from you all!

Expect bubble gum cigars are still around but haven't looked for any. Candy cigarettes are still legal in most of the United States.

Art Adams and the Rhythm Knights is the real thing when it comes to rockabilly. Art is 85 years young and still performing. Rock Crazy Baby was released in 1959.

My copy of Annie in Wonderland did get playtime on my turntable.

Any remember a band called Planxty?

​

Never heard of (or, had ) Planxty? Saounds good, (hope the virus isn't to contagious ).

I do have my LP of AIW; got it when it came out. I'll have to see if I have a CD of it (maybe).

We are in the beginning stages/planning of our sleeping porch renovation. Which colo(u)r(s) do all' y'all like?

Basic (Here's a rough drawing I made of the north wall) idea for windows and trim/casing, with vertical V-groove boards on the walls.

 

[Jeff Scott]

Me too. I loved Annie Haslam, but then I sang in a prog-fusion band and the only female singer anyone knew to compare anyone else to in that genre was Annie Haslam. Did I sound like Annie Haslam? Some critics said yes, others said no. She was the only yardstick anyone had in their toolbox. It was all Annie, all the time. It got comical after awhile.

PS: I sound nothing like Annie Haslam. She has a fine, trained voice. I am a hack.

There was, also, Sonja Kristina. Not as well know, but Curved Air was a great band, to me, anyway.

My old English teacher delighted in calling them "Warped Air"....

Until we told him that that would be a REALLY cool name for a band....

The pastel salmon doesn't look like it would wake me, or cause convulsions upon waking.

I'm too decor-conservative to select anything but a whiter shade of pale. Let the furnishings provide the color.

The sax a couple posts up reminds me how horns make a song

It hasn't been used for sleeping in since at least the mid '50s, so no worries, there!

Most likely, it will be a small den for sunset and bird watching, and the like.

That's a good color for the ceiling, to keep spiders away. There's some trivia for you.

 

[Jeff Scott]

We're still deciding on what roof to put on it. One of these, perhaps?
