Is opening the door for a clown a nice jester?

That Chilled to The Bone feeling is one reason we are in San Miguel de Allende from Mendocino, CA. Not as humid as Fla, but you remember the quote attributed to mark Twain - The coldest winter I ever spent was the summer in San Francisco - well, Mendo was 3 hrs north and ‘ more so’….

If you're both cold and wet on the first day of summer, you're in Ireland for certain.
I have been known to go out to shovel the end of my driveway, after the snow plow came by and pushed snow up my clean driveway, in below freezing weather with just boots, shorts, tee-shirt, and shovel. There is a short window before I get cold.
The benefit is that all the cars driving by slow way down to rubberneck at the crazy, er, I mean eccentric man shoveling his driveway half naked.

If you send him to the exit out of the courtesy, you can get away with it.
Just saying hello to all my fellow crazies here. Much love!
Sorry, been suffering a sick for the last...counting on fingers... 10 days now. Not the-thing-that's-going-around (I got tested), but still bad enough to keep me away from keyboards quite a bit in those days.Hey folks! Just popping in after a little recording work here at Studio 1215. Yes, I had to give it a name so people would think it's legit, especially me.
'MUA, glad you're one of us. I either own or borrowed one of those 75-watters many moons ago and didn't think it was too bad. Here's a link for a smidgen of history on it from Reverb. Dang, Man, that sucka is like 15 years old AND digital at that! Hope you play the heck out of it and enjoy what you here.

Come on people, three posts (including mine) since Monday? Don't let this club fall off to the pages meant for threads like, "Tone controls: What are They For?" or "Poll: How Many More Vox Pieces can Doc Intrepid Add to his Rig?" Hey, it's January, it's cold, there's nothing to do inside but create good music and then write about it to your friends. Let's go!
Just Some Guy
Is no problem, I am merely recuperating from having too much sash at the holiday party. Or maybe it is Romulan death-lung disease? Hard to tell from WebMD...Uh, ... ... welll, ... Live long and prosper?
Wait! <looks around> Where's Roddy?!? ... uh, ... I mean @RodRy ... ! Where's RodRy!?!
Alas, poor Rodery, I knew him well, Horatio.

Kzin are part of Known Space. Uncertain how they got in Star Trek's universe, or into D&D games.

That I may start off on the right foot, my combo is my DI to Windows, where I continue to debug a conflict with Studio 4 
one of the things I find is the limiter on the PJB combo is super useful to keep the DAW from clipping. It doesn't take much for it to clip when I run a hot signal ... way new at this recording / online thing
(and not all that happy about it but here we are in 2022 again)
but it all works well enough for our online practice group. Today was the conclusion of our 10 week pattern system study and one of the students says
This is the holy grail! I've been looking for this for 20 years!
And we grok deeply.

Was first introduced to them by a (sadistic) DM who brought them into the D&D game he was running. Several party members were making up new characters shortly after.

Aha! Roddy, boy! Am beink SO glad your head vas not rolled. A leetle sick here or there iss not so bad-enough, eh? "Vhat doesn't keel you makes you stronger," no? Vell, maybe not so much vith sick. Iss not like exercisink muscles, iss it? Except maybe throw-up muscles, vhich never seem to really veaken.
So, who iss rollink head new FL could be referrink to? Hmmm ... ... I don't thinkink my head iss rollink (as if I should know?), but *OI!* one veek into new year and I steel haven't received usual direct deposition notification. My CC paycheck sure is not rollink, vhich could be vorser than head!
Maybe nFL didn't so much like my suggestions for hiss CC Membership Wiki!! Hoo, boy. Ever tried to get a job interview for super secret spy job?

Well I just bought the last black PJB Double Four that GC had in stock.
I cobbled together 3 gift cards received for Christmas and the guy was great to deal with. Really cool dude in Indiana. (Purchased online local GC doesn’t carry them) He gave me a great deal. Good guy.
I really like the idea of having a 8.5 lb amp to carry around the house. My Rumble 25 will now sit permanently next to my comfortable chair in the living room. My Rumble 500 will be in my studio and used in band situations. My PJB double four will be at my desk when working in my office area downstairs and go to my gazebo with me in the summer and go with me on road trips. If I’m just jamming with guitar players I may use that now instead of the Rumble 25.
I was debating waiting for the PJB Nano coming out in February? One 4” speaker. 35 watts. Bluetooth. 5lbs! Lol. But $375 is a little pricey and turned out for about ten bucks more after discounts I got the double 4.
The advantage over the Nano is two 4” speakers each with an independent 35 watt amp for each speaker. Double the cone area equals double the air pushed. It also has a line out. Bluetooth would have been cool but I use my wonder-boom Bluetooth speakers when jamming anyway. 5lbs would have been cool but 8.5lbs ain’t bad either lol.
Can’t wait to get my new combo! I’m really picky. Know exactly what I want and what I can and can’t tolerate. I am going to give this every chance to succeed. I hope it’s all I expect it to be.
I’ll give you my review for what it’s worth after I’ve had it a few weeks.

Beautiful pic @Morrighan . Is that you in red in the distance?
Yes- advantage leaving Northern Vermont .
My wife and I both had to be ON THE ROAD by 6:30am when worst weather on tap. We got top listing on the snow removal guy's list thanks to daughter dating his nephew
. We were on a private 1/4 mile dirt road off a dirt road. Yes-now living a 10min walk to work is nice.
