I don’t think telling someone to bugger off qualifies as practicing law without a license. If he wants to find an attorney to argue that tenants in common doesn’t apply, I’m happy to laugh. 35 years running an IP company dealing with parents, copyrights, and trademarks on a continual basis does provide some level of knowledge…and a few IP attorneys on call.
That was an unbelievably, hilariously *under--the-bottom* downer. You had to either recoil in disbelief or burst out laughing...
Dealing with parents is the worst.
News report from Beantown is they ran out of beer. They are blaming the Scots. 
I won’t even bother fixing the typo. Works better that way.

Wednesday... white Saundersbird TBSO (playing it as I type)... Wilkinson hb pu's... early '90s Fender/Kubicki 9v pre... Hipshot drop D & Supertone (string-thru) bridge... late '80 vintage Saunders P-neck... yah.., it rocks.
...and soon to be Gildaxe silver-leaf gilded - Bond Girl's Cherie Lebows' guitar (now boring matte white)... per her request, I added a volume pot/knob to it (it was cheap, but come on... no volume pot/knob?) She has developed physical issues playing and this light-weight guitar is helping. She likes the feel of the neck, it sounds decent, but it needed a volume control. And while I was at it - it needs a special Bond Girl finish for a special Bond Girl. (approved by Cherie of course) She doesn't use the knee-rest thingy...

But they had Joy, they had fun they had Seasons in the Sun
What says the Kingdom; As my Gibby 60s RI pickups are for a future Vintage 60s-70's tribute thunderbird build, i'm contemplating two potential body woods. Go classic Mahogany, or opt for Alder. I'm most likely going stealth bolt-on construction (ferrules instead of a neck plate),
Reason of asking is I've a 75 Grabber bass which is alder body, & that thing roars (it is also light due to the body depth of 1.25"), & I know some epi bolt on birds were alder, others like my goth are a very soft mahogany, which well mine's been through much hell of breaking/cracking.
Thanks a bunch!

Faithful tribute? Hog.
Different angle on a classic? Alder.
I'm kinda conservative (read: square) about these things.
Thanks. I need to play it more. Also need to find a way to get less relief in it. Nut is tight a bulging out the wood at the base. I made a washer to fit to spread the load a bit, but hasn't really helped. It's certainly playable, just prefer the action lower. It's heavy, but sounds great.
English World Cup fan delivers perfect verdict on Texas brisket ahead of Croatia match
"I had Texas BBQ yesterday, I had a lovely bit of brisket...Picked it up, put the sauce on it, dropped it in my mouth, melted in my mouth. It was absolutely beautiful. It's the best beef I've ever had in my life."Now that this cat found out what real food tastes like, he'll be overstaying his visa.
Yep. Two Neps are asst principals, one a HS and the Elem. The kids are nothing compared to the older and delusional idiots. Im not a parent and may have done no better, but seems a generation or two forgot how it's done.
Before they ended their lives...But they had Joy, they had fun they had Seasons in the Sun
or whatever happened. It's like the Wuthering Heights of music.(Stop it before someone does something drastic.)(Goes without saying there is nothing funny about that topic itself.)
The B side of the 45 was 'Put The Bone In'.Before they ended their lives...
(Goes without saying there is nothing funny about that topic itself.)
No airplay that I can ever recall.
