Well you know how we are, but it might take a spa day week to fix you up, just a barber wouldn't cut it. But your doing better than me, a complete overhaul wouldn't fix everything up and I'm not as old as you. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigStewMan Posted June 9, 2020 Share Posted June 9, 2020 well this morning, I scaled a mountain of stuff blocking my closet door and brought out a Taylor guitar. Spent a couple of hours playing and realized that after over a year off -- I now have Nancy-boy fingertips - they hurt. Time to build the callouses again. felt good and I even remembered a few things. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grasshopper Posted June 9, 2020 Share Posted June 9, 2020 kinda like my wife's spices... I would use them... if I knew what they are. Can't read the labels. And even then. I don't use a lot of different herbs/spices. Wife made pot roast last night. She got a little happy with the salt or the lid came off the shaker... Came out like beef flavored salt. I salvaged it for tonight's chili. Came out good. We don't usually use "beef"... A quart of tomatoes and another of beans diluted the salt to palatable. In my spice collection, I have a bottle of Hatch Green Chile Powder. Never seen green before that. It's good stuff. Hatch is the capitol of the chile world. The only debate in that town is, "Red or Green?". 31 minutes ago, BigStewMan said: I now have Nancy-boy fingertips - they hurt.

Dave1290 Posted June 9, 2020 Share Posted June 9, 2020 Just now, grasshopper said: Salt works... that is why I asked if you planned to grow anything there after... Yea, knew I could do that but these stinking things just keep coming back every time I knock em down a notch. This time it's not gonna happen! Sacrificing a small asparagus patch maybe. Might leave the one closest to the house alone and just cut it back. Kinda nice opening the back door and breaking off a piece every spring to gnaw on. Hope I don't grow a third *** after next spring's lil crop. The other one? Torchin it! That stuff just spreads everywhere! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grasshopper Posted June 9, 2020 Share Posted June 9, 2020 You use a pick or finger-pick? My dad had heavy callouses on both hands from playing bass ... Jazz style plucking a stand up bass 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grasshopper Posted June 9, 2020 Share Posted June 9, 2020 They don't need to run tests on me. They can hold me up to a light and see thru. Just enough meat to hold the bones together. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
