Isn't feeding a puppy turkey after he bites you sort of ... positively re-enforcing a negative? Unless, you yelled at him, and waited 5 minutes! Wife may have had too much mask and not enough oxygen. If you live in a state that requires you to wear a mask In Between Bites - she may have been doubly affected. Chewing and swallowing without breathing, then a mask. Hope she's OK. Today we're getting one of those side by side remote control beds that you can raise and lower, but are 2 twins that fit (I hope) inside an existing King size bed frame. Yesterday, the mattresses were delivered and are airing out. Our current mattress is like a well-worn catchers mitt. I think they intentionally make them now so they don't last as long.

NighthawkChris Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 Round 1 of bagging and tagging leaves this weekend. Hate doing this every season, but when you have a chunk of land, have to do it. Lots of trees on my lot. Well that’s the joy of home ownership on some acres of land... 30 bags so far. Expecting about doing 60 bags this year no doubt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope she's better. That happened to mine decades back, I caught her and carried her to a bench till she woke up. She dieted to a weight too low for her.

Retired Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 Snow was all melted today so I cleaned the mess in the back yard. Deb bought herself a Christmas gift for a $100.00 and insists I come up with a gift I want for around the same price give or take a few bucks. I've been thinking for weeks. So I may have found a pedal. It's a Zoom G1X four looper effects for $109.00 Anyone ever have this before? I really didn't know what else to try?

SteveFord Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 Worked, fed some snakes, laughed about how trying to move a 12' boa constrictor that'a wrapped around a heat lamp atop a cage by yourself does NOT work AT ALL! Move the head, the tail digs in, move the tail, the head digs in, move the middle and both the head and the tail dig in. Okay, stay where you are, see if I care... Mystery Guitar is still MIA in Newark, NJ and I dug out the Lucille. BB King really had great taste in guitars and got Gibson to make a stellar model for him. Little tweak of the truss rod and it's back in business. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Gibson Posted October 30, 2020 Author Share Posted October 30, 2020 I was piling manure outta the feedlot,but since it rained it gets too slippery, so went out for a drive and took some potatoes to my 88 yo friends. They gave me some moose breakfast sausage in exchange. He's 88 and got a nice moose this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have prescription with photo grey on my everyday glasses and 2 sets of prescription sunglasses. One pair for my car and one for her car. Hmm, Have 2 pairs of deep snow boots. I spent all day checking into pedals. We ordered the Zoom G3Xn pedal from Amazon. I liked that it had a setting for drum beats. Thought i'd give that a go plus the effects. Price went over a bit but she didn't care. I've had $200. in cash in my jewelry box for the last 2 years, I'll give her that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sgt. Pepper Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 Started putting the gynormous thing that is part of what turns a model in the wind tunnel.

I think we had 2 gigs in 2019 & of course nothing since C19. Most offers of gigs are difficult to confirm anyway with seven guys with families. Its like trying to herd a bunch of cats. I miss playing out. Next confirmed gig is my son's wedding next August. That should have been this year, but yeah... C19 again. I hope it works out for next year. Beat buddy is good, and I should try to use it again. It would be terrific for a bassist I think. If you get the extra pedal, you could gig with it (seated would be best). At different parts of the song you can stomp to add fills and variations. You can plug it into your Aux and adjust the volume independently. Its expensive, but its built like a tank.

Thats right, Since I don't gig, I keep forgetting about Covid 19. That has pretty much shut everything down. Many things have been shut down for good because of it. By the way, Congrats on your sons marriage next year. Deb ordered me a Zoom G3X effects pedal for Christmas and has a drum beat on it as it claims. I think its like 60 to 80 different beat patterns. It should be interesting when I get it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, so we bury the bones afterwards so no one finds out! Lol So we have a 3 step process, 1. shoot them, 2. feed them to the dog, 3. bury the bones. We don't seem to get any crooks here. Haha.
