Can I call a timeout for T-Shirt Tuesday? Someone suggested Tube Top Tuesday, but that ain't gonna happen here :eek:

I knew some English major would ding me :bookworm:
Me no English real good.

Don't worry, he speaks Canadian and uses extra letters in wourds. ;)
Soorry Eh
Hey! How aboot some respect!

And now for a review of the Geddy Lee cameo on Murdoch Mysteries.

I was disappointed that I had to sit through an hour of terrible Canadian content to see two scenes with Geddy. He did his "Canadian Hoser" voice for the part. And they threw in some gratuitous Rush references. Don't waste your time on the show; just get the highlights on the Yoot Oobs.

The world shall always respect Canada--and for good reason. Some will mistakenly think that a joke.

We get Murdoch Mysteries, but I believe they were a few years old. At least the one's I've seen. Those were decent and still better than much of the mindless drivel on TV.

Here's my Thunderbird. I got this for Christmas back in 2018. It's by far the loudest bass I own and it has possibly my favorite tone as well. I sometimes wish I had a second T-Bird, actually. I often find myself regretting passing up on a white one that was at my local guitar center for a time in 2016.

My inspiration for taking the pickguard off was Pete Way of UFO

Not really. One of our sister companies in the 90s went belly up when customers asked them to build some really expensive equipment and then backed out of the volume deal. The large customer with a name starting with a small "i" took delivery of the one and only machine. Programmers, soon to be fired, gave it a serial number of 666. Operators refused to use the machine and the customer had to call up the company execs (all now fired) and beg them to find the programmers that did it and have them change the number. That cost someone a fortune as the programmers held out for a lot of cash.


Some people are very superstitious.
