Scientists are funny. The Sixgill Shark is so named because they have, well, six sets of gills. Most sharks and rays have five sets.
I was playing catch with my dad, caught the ball and fell on a fire ant mound.I wont get into the time when I was 3 years old, living in St. Cloud Florida, and decided to step on a fire ant hill. No I won't go there!
That was about 35 years ago. It still hurts.
Someone's doing her best to sleep through the holidays.
Q: has Inverness Green changed over the years ?
I have seen photos of old Gibson colour charts and it seems quite pale. But the Bonamassa Les Paul a friend owns is a lovely dark green.

I dunno, is it turning out too subtle?
what pots and caps are y’all liking for the stock Gibson pickups? I’m going to wire her vol/blend/tone.

Yeah, it is kinda old and worn out. I will be happy to take it off your hands to clear space for a much nicer new one. It is a service I provide.

Yep. Way too subtle.
Blend. I’ve always had in my mind that I wouldn’t like it because when on the midpoint the output is reduced.
Q1: is that even correct ?
Q2: now thinking that may be the same as having both pickups ‘on 10’. The output is reduced then also ?
so, same same ?

Woo! Outta my realm of knowledge.
At this point if it happens, I may buy a couple of them.
Poison Oak. Child’s play. It is everywhere on the Cali Central coast where I grew up. My brother would look at it and get a breakout. I could eat the stuff with no problem. I’m a mutant I guess.

The first time I remember discovering fire ants was on vacation in Mississippi probably around 6 years old. I didn't understand why my feet kept burning when I would be playing in the grass. Coming from Ohio I had never seen or heard of fire ants so it was a surprise to find out there were ants that would bite you. I hate those things!!
As opposed to the rest of the year?
There is this nasty smelling white powder called Orthene that will wipe out a nest in about 3 hours. I make a fire ant patrol around my yard every other day. They don't last long. I can 'powder' them at 10 AM, go play my THUNDERBIRD and come back in an hour to watch them kicking their last.
That’s a lot of Birds! I’ve got to install my other Diamondlife bracket soon; I’m running outta room on the floor again.
God I love her. She’s like one of us.
I have another 4 foot section that I can hang, and may need to. I have been very happy with that hanging system and highly recommend it.
