After Katrina, I lived and worked at the Seminary on Carrollton. I felt the weight of the scandal in that building. I can't explain it in words, but the building itself felt spooky....

Nancy Reagan was right. If you stay in school and off the dope, you'll probably make out just fine.
Deviate from that advice at your peril....

re: What's your favorite cheap guitar ?
Posted by Ace Midnight on 4/23/24 at 1:54 pm
Ibanez and Yamaha are great values across the board.
Ovation has some insane values in their international line, if you like the way they make guitars (which I do).
And, Seagull, of course.
As opposed to "cheap", my pick for "best value" is probably a Yamaha Pacifica....

re: The Intifada Comes to America
Posted by Ace Midnight on 4/23/24 at 1:43 pm
I've been saying this for over a decade - even back to the years I was in uniform - America has fallen. But, as America was this massive, incredibly powerful leviathan, it is taking some years for the corpse to hit the ground.
But, the "Great Thud" is coming, of that I have little doubt....

Arlen Specter developed the "Magic" or "Pristine" bullet theory which is an admittedly improbable explanation of how Oswald was the lone gunman, firing only 3 bullets.
The implication is that Specter was compromised and would have done as he was tol...

The sheer terror associated with a few tenths of a degree C (if that, at least directly caused by human behavior if we take a decent number of their ludicrous assumptions at remotely face value) makes me question whether or not humanity is even meant to survive.
I mean, FFS, let's say it is a deg...
