My obsessive posting on the OFC came to a skidding halt as I embraced other aspects of life and looked them head-on. Man, those headlights can be awful bright!

Here is the Reader's Digest or short Attention Span Theater (SAST)version for those that even care:

Youngest has left the house leaving me the opportunity to chase my Bride through almost 2700 sq/ft. She responded with a list of Honey-do's and makeovers. I put my foot down and said "I'll get right on it".

The CRT Telly will be replaced with a 46" LCD on the wall soon (I hope).

don't forget the watchdog!


I got a generous care-Package from Glenn with a smorgasborg of BFLG items. I am hoping to assemble something to send back to him ala the WRB Trail. Stand by.

I have a Project from Andrew/Eden's Harvest that I hope to work in as well. A very confused Preacher Hybrid. Hmmmm...

Here's a semi-hollow 6/12 with an OP 40 as well as magnetic pickups. OK, at least it is in my mind.

Enjoy

Location: Upper Left USA		I appreciate the compliments, especially from the softer gender. I was given a lot of leeway but I believe I checked in at the right stop points and got some valued input/direction. Watched a lot of HGTV as well!

The paint technique is "Suede" for the Ralph Lauren paint and "Brushed Suede" for the Dutch Boy. I had to get over the whole "Yuppy" Brand paint stigma. there are sure to be more brands offering their flavor. It is a very simple two-step process and they put either strands, flakes or chunks in the paint to obtain texture.

Hmmm, how would it work on a Lyrachord Bowl???

Since Seesquare made me look up what titration means and the fact that I might be able to help my fellow Musicians out (and you know who you are) here's my confession. I have been taking meds for the ADD/ADHD and trying to become a better person. I know that we Musicians are a different cut of cloth for the most part and in some cases a little chemical assistance can help.

We have also seen how self-administered chemical assistance can be a negative factor in a Musician's life (here it comes)... nuff said.

My Wife has sure carried a lot of my baggage and it is a miracle I haven't woken up dead!

So do good, avoid evil, put the right things at the top of the list and get moving!

Trying to line up some sales soon so if there are any wants send me a line.
