I enjoy f---ing* around with words that sound or spell the same(as y'all mighta noticed), which confuses non-English speakers trying to learn our language.

I have 12 hour days all the time (doing nothing)...retired

12 hour days? That's nothing. I have been doing 24 hours days for years (58 and counting) except for when I lose that hour for Daylight Savings....
Oh wait, are you talking about work????

My 80 hour weeks are firmly behind me. And taking every care that it remains that way.

So, what you’re saying is, you work half days...
I hung up the CDL in '07. Never had to deal with those.Yes...creativity was a useful skill with them. Sometimes I miss them....

Think today is the day to pull the trigger on the BA108. I ordered the TC Electronics little 200watt head and 2x8 cab but they haven't come in yet to sweet water and it looks like I'll be out of town by the time they arrive.
Really we all do take care of our sound to the best of our ability. It means we care. And yeah yeah nobody in the audience hears the bass, listens to the bass, notices the bass or the bass player jimi jams. It's my own integrity I aim to present .... forget who here has a sig that says "no gig too small, no pay too great". Perhaps. I'm not driving two hours round trip to rehearse .... And it's a really cool gig, very talented guys my age, one a Berklee grad. They know their pewp and they're gearing up for post-lockdown. But they live and gig an hour away and that gets old fast.
If we had train service there like <ahem> places with actual train service it'd be a pretty good gig. But not today.
Today there's lots of Ampeg BA108 practice amp for actual practice.
oh and that's K2
the Savage Mountain
Ah K2! Climbing Angel Peak across from K2 is still a dream of mine. Just imagine the view.... Been to the Annapurna North Glacier back in 2002, unforgettable!

The closest I ever came to K2 was climbing a couple of Fritz Wiesner's routes. So. Not very close at all. And even in the fitness of youth slow to acclimatize above 5000 meters ... But can very much see myself on an extended holiday in Skardu

Climb mountains, you say? Ha, with my COPD, I get winded climbing a few stairs

I had an unplanned day off from work. Wife and kids are in school, I have beer and my new 800watt rig to play with lol. I'm not going anywhere.I know how that works. It's all a matter of priorities.
I'm saving myself from impulse buying a rumble 800 and a Fender boxer I absolutely want...
Have another couple of beer and you will be OK (until your wife comes home, that is).
