I did some light work to my Hadean faux-Telecaster guitar today. #0000 steel wool all over the neck and frets, then some F-One oil on the rosewood fretboard, new EB Super Slinky strings, and a Tort pick guard.

Hmm, that sounds a little too relvant to me...

But it is guitar, not bass. Guitar is very irrelvant.

Geeeeeeetar.

Sea bass is very irrelvant. Or pantyhose. Or trompe l'oeil. Come on, let's kick it up a notch!

Aesthetic renovations of original antique seaside Genovese trompe l'oeil tend to be a bit too vivid for the first few years, until the weathering "softens" the modern paints enough to look authentically old.

Stonewashed jeans: Compare and contrast.

I'll take whatever the first thing is, because I don't care for stonewashed jeans.

I am subjecting myself to electronic media overload but I'm not sure how I feel about it.

I think I don't like it?!?

Or not?!? Yeesh!

I am subjecting myself to a new job doing three things I never wanted to do again:
Work nights
Work over 12 hrs/shift
Work out of town

 

[ctmullins]

No wonder you glossed over the trompe l'oeil.

I made a bacon and egg sandwich and may have undercooked my egg.

Someone check on me in 24-36 hours.

I always eat runny eggs. Not dead yet.

Me too. Over easy. And I ate plenty of raw cookie dough and cake batter as a kid.

Speaking of eggs, I am about to hard boil 36 eggs in order to prepare for my new job that starts on Monday.

Crop dusting?

I got shot in the eye when I was 11. Now I have two pupils in one eye.

Crop dusting?

I just want to make a strong first impression.

So today I was driving back from the hardware store in my sketchy looking, beat up truck that actually runs great. There was a much newer truck stopped in the middle of the road with the hood up, so I stopped to see if they needed help.

Them: "The battery died again. We just jumped it but it's completely dead now. I already called for a tow truck."

Me: "Oh, if your battery keeps dying, your alternator is probably bad."

Them: "I THINK IT IS BEST TO LET A MECHANIC LOOK AT IT .THE BATTERY IS JUST DEAD. THE BLINKERS WERE ON AND NOW THEY AREN'T."

Me: "Ok, fine. Are you sure you don't want help? I can pull you off the road and out of the way."

Them: "THE BLINKERS WERE ON AND NOW THEY DONT WORK ANY MORE"

Me: " Well, if you already called a tow truck .... " (bye)

Some people don't even want to be helped. I didn't tell them that I am a mechanic, and I probably could have done a proper diagnosis right there for free. They were just rude.
