  1. Other than the doping thing with the 15 year old kid from Russia, I have completely enjoyed the Olympics.. but we always enjoy them.
  2. The bass finally made it after a week of travel time.... I'll admit I was a bit worried. It came with everything... the embossed pickguard, COA and the original invoice from 1998. You can tell this sucker has been played.... Totally stoked it has a one-piece back. I've been really luck that 3 of my 4 Hofners have one-piece backs.
  3. 😁 The Rams have two Chips now..... Whatta game!!!
  4. Oh man.... I quite smoking that stuff at 14.... I just couldn't play any instrument when high..... Now completely drunk, no affect whatsoever.
  5. I agree..... And most of it isn't anger.... it's just sarcasm for the most part... If we were all sitting around a camp fire with our Hondo II Les Paul copies we would more than likely be laughing our asses off.
  6. From a cost savings aspect it's really not a bad idea.... But just imagine you just purchased a $4000 dollar Fender Custom Shop geetar, then a few weeks later you show up with a $600 Fender engagement ring to propose to your girlfriend....... I can't imagine that going over very well.
  7. This one will work, you'll need to make a couple of small padded inserts and some hot glue. https://shop.warwick.de/en/search?sSearch=Warwick+RC+10832
  8. Hopefully there is no more name calling amongst members.... I would hate to shut it down.
  9. I think the Olympics are awesome and the opening ceremonies were nothing short of spectacular. It's funny up until 4 years ago I felt the same way about Curling, but we finally sat down and watched it and all of sudden we were hooked... lol.. Who would of thought a thing that looks like a circular block of cheese being navigated by two brooms sliding on ice would be so addicting for us to watch.,,, 🤨
  10. He's already received his Millers Outpost gift card for that achievement... Let's move on already.
  11. What's wrong with that???? Isn't it part of our responsibility as old Rockers to pass down the music to the youngsters???? It's no wonder that metal is in the state it's in today. I can't even count all the reasons why I did the same thing as a kid.... who doesn't want to be cool middle schooler.
  12. Lately for some reason I have been inserting my dogs name "Rocky" into songs for some strange reason and I get stuck sing that song for about a week, then move onto another song and do the same thing. My wife thinks its funny yet bizarre.
  13. Jesus.... Sorry about your mom and all. I'm a Spartan and lived in Freemont while attending classes. That was a weird little town
  14. Friggin hilarious. It's funny I now hit the restroom before driving home from the office. On two occasions I had to pull off the road and pee behind a building. It's sure is odd how my bladder knows when I'm getting close to home.
  15. If you ever make it out to the Peoples Republic of California, you gotta hit me up. There are a couple bars in La Verne CA, that don't give damn about wearing a mask, and it almost feels like 2018. lol
  16. Lol..... Someone that is new and has yet to mix it up with you on a public forum might think that. But we all know you're a softy... lol
  17. That happens here. Courtesy has its limits here at times... lol You can just ignore it. I do find it a little weird how some will insert themselves into a conversation just for the sake of raising the temperature. Or answer a post for you when the question is directed for you... I always find that a little strange, but it's a public forum. When I read someone is trying to twist my reply into something it isn't, I just then stop replying to them in that thread. It doesn't mean I think they're a terrible person, it's just that I want to stop digging even a deeper rabbit hole.
  18. I have Three Hofner basses....1967, 68 and a 2001. I'm waiting for the 1996 (fourth bass) to be delivered.
  19. I don't at all see the comparison.
  20. I was so embarrassed that something like that happened in my country. I used to love the American Flag with all my heart, but when I saw it being used like that on January 6th on those poor capitol police, we decided to remove the American Flag from the front of our house..... we now have a LA Rams flag in it's place for now. Maybe some day I'll put it back out there, but for now it just gives me a weird feeling every time I see the American flag.
  21. I know in the 80's us metal heads were called devil worshippers and our music was a terrible influence on children by evangelicals and certain members of congress that wanted to censor the music.
