Thunderbird Club

Oh, I'm plenty ordinary ... and ornery.
I stand by my comments. And, that TC pedal is purple, not red. Therefore, the real mystery is still mysterious. I can easily see the bass pedals from an organ wired up in some kind of insane way to a Thunderbird, then aimed outside at the guy running a jackhammer at the wrong time of day. It would be like a Bach fugue, only louder and lower.

Funny you should mention jackhammers ... a few minutes ago a compressor fired up across the road, presumably they are waiting until 0800 (2 minutes) to start the hammering.
 
But I don't know how to post photos here! IT HAPPENED!!! :)
Take a photo with your phone or iPad and save it to your camera roll. Then when you go to post a new message or reply just select the "upload a file" button below the reply box. Then select camera roll (or where ever you filed the photo). Then select the photo. Then insert it as a full size image and hit the "post reply" button. Done.
 
Maybe we should chip in and buy him some Hello Kitty bandaids. ;)

BTW - taping your plucker isn't the hard part. Getting the tape off is the killer!:roflmao:

Yeah, maybe if you pull it off sloooww, and even then it only tickles for a little while.
On the other hand, if you yank it off using short quick jerks it not only prolongs the tickle, but sticky flicks up the residue as you go.

You have mentioned them before. I haven't been hit in the head enough to have complete memory loss yet. Plus, I have some inkling of what time of day it is in Oz. Not accurate, mind you, but an inkling. There's a construction site down the street from my house, and a school that's being renovated directly across the street. It's the refuse haulers that are an off-hours pain for us. They show up, and pull the roll-on dumpsters onto trucks and drop off empty ones with a big clang any time of day or night. I guess trash is exempt from noise regulations. Fortunately, I'm up and out of the house before 7 am most days anyway.
 
Let me try and post.

@Rob Martinez, if you are on a phone/tablet, hit the 'upload file' button and select from your photo library...

On a desktop computer, drag and drop the photo(s) into your post...

...then insert where you want.
I didn't know about dragging and dropping to TB. This place never fails to educate.
 

Oh, come, come now. If we can't openly discuss, nay I say celebrate plucker bondage, then the puritans will prevail. And we would all be lesser for it, makes me hesitate to say that I like to dip my bound plucker's in a petite vat of Pop's rosin, to impart a little extra grip. Just gotta remember to not* pick my nose or the like, while accoutred up as such. :blackeye:
