I just see it as a weird contradiction in how I do things. I don’t mod basses, but a car, as delivered by the manufacturer, is merely a starting point.
Hasn't dampened yer sense of humor.

Definitely back home, and it's not pretty. But this is, and saw me through
On the underside, connected to each serpent are glyphs that formed the original ring. The satellite aquamarine is visible in this shot my friend sent.
Yeah fix the Stingray.

Kentucky has a long history of racing down backroads with mason jars. The contents of those jars can also make a hot fuel for a vehicle.

The anniversary of Jim Croce’s passing in a plane crash was September 20, 1973, 47 years ago. It seems like only yesterday. He and five others were in a Beechcraft E18S that didn’t gain enough altitude, it crashed into a pecan tree at the end of the runway. All perished.

It always amazes me how many celebrities in the music business die in aviation accidents. I've never analyzed the stats as I'm typically focused more on military aircraft mishaps, but it seems to be higher than most any other profession's population on a percentage basis.
John Denver is the only other I can think of off hand.
It seems they are also likely to wake up dead in a hotel room. Drugs asside ( it isn't always involved) , the touring schedule of some of these guys is awful. It may also be what compromises their reactions when flying.
Typically there is bad weather, fog, late in the day after a gig. A lot of contributing circumstances. Then there are the ones that have a license and can afford a plane but lack experience. Harrison Ford’s latest FAA investigated incident was just resolved yesterday. Well intentioned but he makes mistakes at busy airports.
Somehow I think that most pilots are better trained and more cautious these days.
They get a lot of media attention. Then there are the ones that die by other means.

Otis Redding is another one along with Holly, Valens, and Richardson.
A sad but more complete list and you a faster on the draw!
I have a small Bosch Colt router that I want to mount in a router table. It will require drilling holes in a blank base plate that I have that fits the table. I was hoping to obtain hole position specs for the three router mounting holes. Just to make the fabrication a bit easier since alignment is important.
So I contacted Bosch customer service for after sales support.
This is their reply. Alway nice to know that this company has your back. I foolishly thought that since they designed the router, they could assist.
Dear David,
Thank you for contacting Bosch!
I understand that you are looking for a diagram or drawing of the subbase for the GKF125CEN. I will be happy to help you with this.
I have coordinated with our Support Team. They have confirmed that we do not have any diagram or drawing for this.
If you need further assistance, please feel free to contact us back. You can respond to this email or call us at 1-877-BOSCH99 (1-877-267-2499) Mon-Fri: 7:00-19:00 CST.
Best regards,
Pamela

The Our Man Flint ringtone is seeing action as calls come in for surgical followup. Told them Gretchen, a pre-op nurse, did a great job. She found the routing holes pattern for the IV.
Nice that they follow up on Saturday. I had my leg done on a Friday, they made me stay till Monday when the sturgeon returned to work.

I think if you do a quick internet search you'll be amazed. The number of folks on the list over many years is enough to make me think a tour bus or train might be the safer option. Like I said, I haven't done any calculations, but at just a first order look I would normally expect flying to look like the safest method of travel.
Admittedly though probably a great percentage of these accidents were in general aviation (not commercial) and the accident/mishap rate there is historically much higher than in commercial aviation. I make no value judgements on general aviation pilots (where skill sets and experience obviously vary greatly), I'm just citing the facts as reflected in NTSB data. I know many general aviation pilots who are exceptional aviators.

And Stevie Ray Vaughan. RIP, brother!
bean's, thanks for that list. you saved me the trouble.
I am half watching the UCF/ECU football game along with doing some light reading.
Why does a 30 second timeout by a team result in 5 minutes of commercials? I know some musicians who have a poor sense of time, but this is ridiculous!

Wasn't doubting, just couldn't think of any. Forgot about Buddy Holly and the American Pie bunch.IIRC Denver was flying his own plane.
