Get off my LAWN! "Grumpy Old Farts"

This one?

That's the one. The only part Ivgot right was Joe. Been a long time since I have seen it. Speaking of old.

The city live in just posted the list of non essential businesses. Here are the top five:
5. Liquor Stores
4. Music Stores
3.Strip Clubs
2. Casino's
1. Brothels

Please remind me why I moved here!

Bob

Is this the top 5 list of essential businesses or a recommended list of what to do in Vegas...going in reverse order of 5 to 1....
I am asking for a friend.

Actually it is the top 5 in reverse order for both LV and Reno as they are in the only 2 counties that allow all 5.
Oooooh well. Like constipation this too shall pass after much discomfort.

How many weeks to the gallon are we getting now?

... ... Reminds me of what I feel is the funniest commercial made. The 20th anniversary of Woodstock was sponsored by Coca Cola. They had Steven Stills, Graham Nash and Joe MacDonald on the stage reminiscing and Nash asked "Remember the last time we were here?" Stills nodded and MacDonald just said "Nooooo".

You know, "they" say, "If you can remember it, you weren't really there!"

This one?

Coke - Pepsi? Stills - Sebastian? Joe - Joe!

Bob, by coronary to the aforesaid "being there" rule, you just proved that you did see the commercial!


PS: I see your grump and raise you two grumbles!

Weird Wednesday.

Never got as far as breakfast before I was heaving nothing into the loo. This happens once in a while for no reason I can see. My doctors know this happens, and ask me to make note of any factors that come with it. No food, no fever, nuttin'. I dry heave for five minutes and then it's gone as quickly as it came. Likely not worth reporting given the state of the medical system right now.

Gotta love dry heaves, all the fun of puking without the mess.
Actually, sorry to hear of your "condition." That can't be any fun at all.

The city says wait and see till July 1 for festivals. Summer festivals are a big tourism revenue thing. I expect that they will be cancelled. Many musicians only have work during the summer season, they normally go on social assistance outside of the summer.

Same story for seasonal workers at the port. A lot of summer jobs there for students acting a guides for various attractions.

The same has happened here but without a wait and see date. The Blues, Jazz, and Blue Grass festivals, all national events cancelled period. Pretty much the only event left alone is the Girls Rocking Reno event that celebrates the end of the Spring music camp. That is actually smart on the government officials as they really didn't was the families of 12 to 17 year old girls to have to deal with. Not to mention the girls themselves. I was at the city meeting where the promoters were complaining about the GRR being left alone and the Mayor said "Ok you tell them then" Conversation immediately ended.
Next subject!

I really hesitated to hit "Like" because having been there nothing to like about it. Quite a period time past after therapy was completed before I would stop doing that. It was like my body had obtained a habit. But it did finally resolve. My Drs. just said don 't worry it will go away. Kinda like constipation,,,, Bob

 

[GwenOnBass]

Considering the number of people who tell me I'm full of pewp, constipation might be a normal condition

You know, I warned you about eating bait...I mean sushi for dinner.

Don't make me say..."I told you so!"...

BTW, I have not vomited, puked, upchucked, barfed, thrown up, heaved, chundered, or do a technicolor yawn in over 10 years. (Knock on wood)....

Seriously though, that sucks and I hope you feel better.

From a clinical standpoint, it's kind of interesting to go non-functional for a few minutes and then back right as rain. Where'd I read we survive everything until that time we don't. Sort of a cosmic Maxwell Smart "missed it by that much".

It's such a stressful time, anxiety over Odin's stunt could be at the top of the list. Finding a way to relax isn't easy. Especially hard since they halted production of Coronation Street and East Enders, two weaknesses.

 

[Bobhmcs]

Thank you, that is the jazz that I'm holding in my avatar. That recording is pretty gnarly sounding and I've dialed back the gain on my head just a touch because, while I love that sound, I don't want it to sound like that all the time. But I'd just gotten out of the hospital that day so I was feeling about as gnarly as that sounds

Apparently my son in law has been reading my posts and has come to my aid.
For you Jazz bass enthusiasts this is a unique Jazz bass as it is a 1977 Mahogany body that has been Frankenfendered that I felt needed to be seen. I gave it to him for his birthday. Well he just showed up with it and the poor thing has no output what so ever. No telling what it went through during the 800 mile shipping trip. So now I have something to do to take my mind off the events of the day. Here is what we did to make it playable even as short as it was. If you are interested.
Unbranded neck
HipShot HB7 tuners
Fender American Vintage Geddy Lee pickups
Custom volume bleed wiring harness
HipShot High Mass bridge
Schaller Style Strap Locks
Custom pickguard.
Plus with the filler blocks for the P-bass pickup routing holes this thing weighs a ton! 15.32lbs.
But he loves it and I can't lift it.
All have a great day!
Bob

Moar first fret markers for moar basses!

Does it for me!

The sight of Chuck E. Cheese will do it too. Pizza may be on my list of foods of last resort owing in large part to how I feel after eating it.

Did take a different, and better, breakfast as I came 'round. Then had to think later to recall what I did eat and call breakfast. It was a bit of Camembert, and a bit of pâté, with a slice of dry toast. And an orange this afternoon.

It's such a stressful time, anxiety over Odin's stunt could be at the top of the list. Finding a way to relax isn't easy. Especially hard since they halted production of Coronation Street and East Enders, two weaknesses.

Odin's been by my side all day! Perhaps he found his way home by my voice. Quite an adventure he had. I still blame the cat for indecision as I held the door for him to come in. "Out, or in, but not both at once," I told him. As if he bothers to listen! Cats are cats after all.

Thank you,
It has been absolutely Nutz here. I was notified yester day that my bass teacher closed completely and is not sure if he is reopening, a number of businesses have been cited, the big three music stores in town are closed, the big on line sites are running out of stock, one of which asked me to end my listing and when I did temporarily cancelled my account, and that Partridge in the pear tree left. Needless to say I have moved beyond grumpy and isolated beyond social. Soooo those in physical proximity have had the misfortune to experience Bob in a really bad mood.
I hereby claim as a member of GOF my right to Grump.
I sincerely hope everyone's days are going much better. Because i really really don't like this!
Becareful, safe, and remember Wash Your Hands! ;[)
Bob

Man, I'm sorry to hear all of that. This situation sure isn't making anyone feel better about life at the moment, that's for sure. I'm having good days and bad ones, but I figure if I do all the right things I will eventually be able to say I lived through it. But yeah, I'm putting the G in GOF these days, for sure.

Sorry to hear that. Dry heaves are arguably the worst but I dislike the "productive" ones even more. I get them both when I have a pancreatitis attack. I hope you don't continue to have these spells but at least for the moment it sounds like they are brief!
