The Dude Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 Wonder what the weight capacity is of that work platform? This is some kinda high!Depends either 500 or 1000. I didn't look, but other brands have switches. You can choose, then the boom keeps you in a specific envelop. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigStewMan Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 Thats what I'm lookin for. Everyone NEEDS a good, reliable watch just in case that newfangled cell phone runs out of charge or the battery dies. Who knows?? That watch might save a life in the future!! Remember .... 'Needs a watch.' Hope this helps. Have a great day, gang. Gotta run. if the sun is in its ascendency -- you should still be in bed. Otherwise: Find the Big Dipper and North Star. Locate the two stars in the outside dip of the Big Dipper. ... If the month is before March 7, subtract 1 hour per month. If the month is after March 7, add 1 hour per month. ... Double the time. ... Subtract from 24. ... Add one hour if you are on Daylight Savings Time. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I knew I could count on your opinions being in line with purchasing. Doesn't even have to be Klipsch, does it? Suze Orman says no way. Unless your waking up next to her there is no reason to listen. personally, I’d never leave her side … just so i wouldn’t have to kiss her goodbye.

BigStewMan Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 I have never tried the first two you talk about, the last one is everyday x 6-10. if you’re ever in Los Angeles -- I’ll buy.

BigStewMan Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 (edited) Let's try this again. Wrote a note and then the cord came out of the lap top and I lost it. Thanks guys for the guitar encouragement. Discussed switching to an electric one with a smaller neck since LF has both. Billy, dig your guitar out and get those callouses built back up. You, me. and Steve can do a conference call jam at some point. Earl, my guess is the Cary will be the keeper....but that's just a guess. Jake is a clean dog. I gave him a bath at a dog supply shop. An older lady saw him and smiled and said "what is he besides over weight?" Think Jake's feelings were hurt. But he does smell much better. LF will be back at 9:00 am Saturday. If you call me the phone will be off the hook till 12:00 Cheers Gents Tarheel, you are motivating me to get back at practicing that difficult instrument they call a guitar. I definitely prefer the electric when finger tips are not calloused. The electric strings are not as brutal on them. This is going to be one of many New Year's resolutions. To pick it up and practice at least one 20 minute session EVERY DAY. Better yet, three separate 20 minute sessions. You are very wise to take face-to-face lessons, especially if you have a good teacher. There is a ton of stuff on the web, but none of it will observe what you may be doing wrong, such as posture, etc... One tip that really helped me with chord changes is to form the chord with your first finger first, etc... Not sure why, but a lot of folks the tendency is to start forming the new chord with the pinky and then working to the index finger. This is not as effective because most strumming is down with the first chord strum and it gives you a few nano seconds to finish forming the chord while beginning the strum. The more pressing question is" Who has a land line any more???? Unfortunately I do because no cell phone service is reliable in my rural area. I typically have to go outside and climb a tree..kind of like Green Acres dude climbing the telephone pole. Tarheel You are right. It is bizarre to see people ignoring one another, just to stare at their phones. Not using a phone myself I find that really crazy, it's like that everywhere. I told my wife if a meteor were to take out satellites and cellphone towers a big part of the population would have a nervous breakdown and just stand dumbfounded as to how to get things done. Like driving, is what's going on with your phone worth dieing for ? What are they thinking ? But the birthrate has probably dropped of because of cellphones, until they come out with an app for that . Saw a rear end collision at lunch. No brake squeal at all. Knocked the car ahead into the next car ahead. Want to bet it was cell phone related? Saw the same scenario about a block from there a couple of months ago. It's getting serious folks Took my Mom & Dad and my sister to see a house totally decked out with Christmas lights last year. Kid came from nowhere and plowed into the back of us. Luckily no one was hurt. First thing I asked him was, "were you texting"? His delayed answer was not at all convincing. He didn't admit it, but he didn't say no. Be safe and cognizant of upcoming cars when admiring Christmas lights! Alright, alright . . . I will take the guitar out of the case . . . haven't opened in 8 years . . . an acoustic with a pick up. Dog chewed some vinyl cover off the amp but it still works well. In late 2007, got t-boned on my Harley by a kid in a Nissan Pathfinder. Wound up with 11 surgeries and a 1 1/2 in a wheelchair before I learned to walk again. Got another Harley 2 days out of the wheelchair. I might as well break the guitar out again too. Yikes Man! You been through some stuff there -- glad that you made it. Big guitar fan here--have 9 of them on the floor & wall next to me right now. Was getting close to another purchase; but, i have a line on a pair of McIntosh MC30s and if the folks sell them to me, i’ll send it to Craig for a rebuild…if the folks decide to keep them--i’ll soothe the heartache with another guitar.

Rhetor Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 Yeah, was not supposed to get off the sidewalk. Then wasn't supposed to survive the ambulance ride. Then wasn't supposed to come out of the emergency room. Then never was supposed to walk again. Wife said I needed a hobby after the accident while I was in the wheelchair. That's when I got into HT and my first Klipsch speakers, and back into two channel vitnyl after a 30 year hiatus. But these days all I have left with is a fashionable limp and too many Heritage speakers. I am blessed. And life is good! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators dtel Posted December 19, 2014 Moderators Share Posted December 19, 2014 A new toy we received at work, dtel speaking of getting high. How about 180' in a aerial work platform. I didn't know those things went that high, or anything close to that, you need to take a ride. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tarheel Posted December 19, 2014 Author Share Posted December 19, 2014 (edited) Hey......duder is getting the band back together! I'm out of "likes" already Heading out for breakfast with two other old geezers at 7:30. Rhetor when you mentioned a fashionable limp I pictured "Chester' in one of those old westerns.....Gunsmoke? Steve between you and my LF you have a total of 16 guitars! Yikes! dtel.....when I get haircuts my friends say which one did they cut? Mostly just trimming split ends. Jake ate and is back in bed.....third day of his diet. Went to the dog park and he had a good time. So did I. A young, long legged lady wearing black leggings was a treat to watch. She was throwing a ball for her dog "Rosebud" and every time the dog brought it back she would have to bend over to pick it up You never get too old to look Cheers Gents Edited December 19, 2014 by Tarheel 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
