People often tell me that...

So you're saying that PC parameters are like speed bumps for you--meant to driven over with gusto and abandon?

Nah. Jeff, Chucky, Rosa and Geo made sure it didn’t come to that. At least I think so from what I recall. If not, there better not be any pics. No one has tried to blackmail me yet….

We all got the pics. From Dave, I think, and asking for offers. Currently there is a bidding war.

I had a 112 combo. Traded it for something I could use. (don't like 'peg 'baked in' tone)

They have a flavor, and isn't for everyone.

I'm glad we don't use the metric system in the U.S.!

Can you imagine how much trouble we'd have if that was 115c?

We're going metric. It's only a matter of time. (My teachers said.)

Spent this evening with an old friend that turned 50 this year. I need to spin it more regularly. A great listen.

The good old days of cleaning albums. I do miss not having a turntable. Maybe one day I will again.

There was no harm, no foul.
You were just fine Marshall.

Now lets all play nice in the sandbox.

Yikes!

I have some opinions on that...

Graduated licenses are probably a marginally useful idea, but the road test needs to cover sufficient driving skills and needs suitable standards to keep poor drivers off the road.

And if we are thinking about teens, by far the greatest risk is using alcohol then driving. It might be sensible to move the legal drinking age to 16 and the driving age to 18/19/21 so that teens get familiar with impairment effects before they start driving.

My daughter took her road test in downtown Richmond BC. If you can drive there….
Having learned about it, I think our graduated program is a pretty good idea.
The ones that are going to drink are already drinking at 16.

We only hit 103 degrees today. Thats almost chilly here.

We have a heat warning. I changed this to Fahrenheit for you mericans:

Gonna be a little warmer just south of you, Irv. It's turned into a pretty good Summer here on the Best Coast ( at least my part of it!)

Keep it green!

Not sure there was no harm, but there was no blood.

Micro climate in my backyard. Thermometer sending unit is in the shade and north facing...but the ground in the area is a freakin' heat sink.

Like the 50 50 bar look. Maybe you all called it something different. Another version of the soda vs pop wars.

So I did a thing with my T-Bird,, Anyone else replace the 3 point bridge on their Bird? I also moved the controls to the right place.
Hipshot replacement,, My string action and height went from 8/64th's with the stock bridge decked to 5/64th's with the new hipshot bridge,, Best playing bass I own.. Great upgrade..
