Pinch Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 (edited) I put the old pickups back in the Standard, and it's a much happier guitar. I also learned that OCD can flare up like dormant herpes (which I'd rather have than OCD). I'm going to stop scrutinizing guitars to where it borders on the insane, and play them instead.

Good thinking! That guitar is new so it'll change a bit as you break it in. I paid off that ES-345 today and it'll be on a UPS truck on Monday, worked all day and getting ready for a much needed power nap. I'm waking up stupidly early (like 3AM and am wide awake). The wife is (get this) DRIVING from PA to Seattle right now so I have the house to myself for a bit. It's her, another woman, a poodle puppy and an SUV packed to the gills and they're headed into snow and -40 wind chills. I think they're crazy. Played that Pelham Blue Firebird and decided I really like that guitar, they got that neck just about perfect for me and it's much lighter and more comfortable than the Firebird VII I've been using for the past two months. I like the color, too, it's really a change of pace. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Gibson Posted February 8, 2021 Author Share Posted February 8, 2021 I like global warming. Fn -40f to-60f is hard on everything. Glad that's over until nuclear winter sets in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also great news - world hunger is over because I just had dinner! Covid isn't real cause I haven't been diagnosed with it yet. Just stop testing and the numbers will go down.

fortyearspickn Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 On 2/6/2021 at 8:21 PM, ghost_of_fl said: This isn't science, it is data: "The instrumental temperature record provides the temperature of Earth's climate system from the historical network of in situ measurements of surface air temperatures and ocean surface temperatures. Data are collected at thousands of meteorological stations, buoys and ships around the globe". So to believe the above table is a "conspiracy" is to say that thousands of meteorological stations, buoys and ships around the globe (or the people operating those meteorological stations, buoys and ships) conspired to deceive you. Same ships at sea since 1850 in the same location ? Used GPS back then to maintain station? Given the lack of any credible response on the part of US or International Scientists regarding Corona - I am not even going to humor you by suggesting reasons why consistent, accurate to within a half degree temperature measurements dating back to 1850 should serve as a basis for things like "The Green New Deal". 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pinch Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 (edited) What's with all the hostility? Can't you be a card-carrying liberal without constantly putting people down with your perceived moral superiority? I'm seriously interested. Because it's a pattern that I see all... the... freaking... time. Not everyone, but a considerable quotient.

I work at NASA we already went up and proved the Earth is a round ball. This forum make me laugh, This is why I don't go to others. I get all the entertainment I need on this one.
