I once had a guitar but it it wouldn't make music.  I was told I needed to buy strings for it.  My complaint about guitar strings is that it's hard to get the music out of them.  Radio is much easier.

 

However, I do very well getting the music out of a piano.  I figure it's because despite having many, many more strings than a guitar, each one only has one job.

...yeah I could get music out of a guitar but only when I held it face side down and shook it a bit to get it to fall out the hole.  

...seriously, before taking up Piano I played guitar in my youth.  Had a lovely 12 string in HS.  Also was in a neighbourhood garage band. Our best covers were Volunteers by Jefferson Airplane along with tunes by the Ventures (I had the solo book).  Even with my nearly crippled right hand I probably could still play reasonably well as I still have a fair amount of dexterity in my left (once I built the fingertip callouses up again).

Every year at work we get the last couple weeks of Decemmber off, and go back Jan 3rd. This year they told us we'd get our last paycheck of this year in the mail, on our payday IE today the 29th. NO PAYCHECK. I am broke, no food, and I have 3 bills that needed paid today! At least my GF brought some food for tonight, but I just hope I get my check tomorrow so I can get crap taken care of. >.<

...yeah being on a fixed income (SS) I really have to watch expenses.  This has been an killer month for me what with bills (115$ just for phone and Net), renting a moving van, and Daz (still haven't used my PC DO coupon).  Only two and a half days to go before my next benefit payment.

omg, big reminder why i ran screaming from the tech support job.

we have a printer/scanner combo in the office.  co worker couldnt get the scanner working from his pc.

i told him where i d/l the mfg software to.

i'm talking he's typing not listening to a word i'm saying.  he was repeating the same steps that ended in fail.

so i got up and watched him, a luxury to be phsyically there.  so i watched him run the  installer.
meanwhile he had taken a smartphone picture of the ip address from the printer display.
when we were up to where the software gave the option to manually type in the ip,
i went over to the printer, "let's verify the ip" 
i heard him mutter under his breath "unbelievable"
I said, 'you know you said that out loud right?'  - hah 
anyway, so the printer has 2 ip addresses, 1 for wireless, and another for wired.
so, it turns out he was using the wrong ip address. 

so now he can scan his expense reports. 

and yoo know, i will throw that 'unbelievable' remark at him from time to time.

 

guys don't need to stop for directions, thanks to gps.  they still don't rtfm  lol

Shall I inect a standard blonde joke here?  I RTFM!  And I'm sure I'm not the only man on the planet who does!

I also stop for directions if I don't have a gps.  Fire stations are the best place for that...they need to know where every street is because they may have to go to that street.  It's an old salesman thing, and an old salesman told it to me a long time ago.

Dana

I will RTFM only in extreme cases.  U'm an engineer, I should be able to figure things out.  That said, I do ask for directions if I'm lost.However, I do not own a wife-beater t-shirt and I only drink expensive microbrews.. Homer Simpson I am not!!

Mmmm, donuuuuuuts.   ​

I didn't know salesmen did that.
I figured it out when I was a truck driver. Don't ask the cops!
They'll tell you how to get there in a patrol car.
Ask the fire department.
They'll tell you how to get there with some huge equipment.

Yeah, I guess it does matter when there may be roads that restrict or prohibit big rigs.

Just checked out this thread for the first time. 

My current complaints:

I have a cold for like the tenth time this season

 My cat snores really loudly and is bipolar. One minute he's all cute and cuddly, curled up on my lap, lovingly licking me, purring sweetly but as loudly as he snores, then suddenly out of the blue, he turns into Mr. Hyde, viciously attacking me like I'm prey. I have slashes all over my arms and wrists from this and people think I'm the one with a psychological disorder, that I'm a cutter!

I used money from savings that I can't afford for a new Windows PC just for Daz but still not feeling well enough to set it up. Just thinking about setting everything up on a Windows machine (as a Mac person), gives me a headache...

My apartment looks like an earthquake hit it and my cat is not helping that either, continually knocking things over. (But I LOVE  my cat, don't get me wrong...)

I still want a comprehensive written manual with screenshots for ALL capabilities of Daz Studio.

Politics. 'Nuff said.

And so much more but my cold medicine is kicking in and too tired to think... 

TJohn

This was a real thing. They used it in movies, too. Good times...

...ahh those were the days, asbestos snow, Magic Markers™, leaded house paint, saccharin, Red Dye #3, DDT, Lawn Darts, home chemistry sets (with all sorts of what are classified as toxins today).  A wonder this culture survived.

Beggie day today - tried roastiing corn in it's husk, which produced the best toast corn I;'ve ever cooked!  Just cut a whole cob in haf and shove it into the air fryer on 200f for 1/2 an hour, omgomg, hit it butter and it's better than sex.  Cooked roasted red baby potatoes with green chili hot sauce, yee haw! Potatoes that bite back.  Current;y roasting beets and turnips, will butter them when done.  Colby Jack cheese for snacks.

Enough healthy, next up will be Fritos Scoops and ranch dip!!! Wheeee!

 

...sounds like of the roasted corn I'd get at the old Wisconsin State fair that was dunked in clarified butter.

Oh as to yesterday, my friend I went to my usual hangout rather than somewhere in the other "high rent" district, and he was very impressed with the burger they make there.  Hand formed and cooked to order with all the goodies (like real "cheddar" and bacon) with fries that are not over salted, and didn't cost 15$ - 20$.  Burger hunger was very satisfied.

That sounds pretty darn tasty!  A decent burger is like finding gold. I've given up and just make my own, even the fanciuer places around here overcook the meat and dry it out.  Not to mention the wafer-thin patty...

NVIATWAS

kyoto kid said:

...at the State Fair they sort of cheated using a large open gas grill (would take to long every day to stoke up a wood fire) but did roast the corn in their husks with no foil. Similarly, they would pull the husks down to form a "handle", dip them in a vat of hot clarified Wisconsin butter, salted them and then handed them to you. Still good eatin'

Ooohh, at th Oklahoma State Fair in Tulsa they had amazing roast corn, fresh off the farm - brought in by the farm truck load.  Enough butter to drown a cow in, too.  With the husk on the air fryer does a decent second place for roast corn.

You cannot be  an American. Telly is something we said in Newfoundland back when we flew the Union Jack under British rule. I have not heard that in forever. In 2002 my future/current husband said why is your TV not working. I said it works. He siad no it doesn't, I can't get football." I said, "Oh I don't use it as a TeeVee,  I use it to play videos."

Grocery ordering day, I got my final paycheck as predicted.  Coconut milk, red and green Thai curry paste, chicken thighs, bleu cheese stuffed olives, sun-dried tomatos, artichoke hearts, and of course Tums Smoothies Extra Strength!  KK has inspired me to try my hand at making air frter Thai curry! Run away!

Looking for a split of champage for New Years Eve.  If I can't find one it's going to be beer instead, something fancy in a large bottle, like Fin Du Monder or such.

Judt polished off an entire jar of ranch dip... uuuurrrrrpppppp. I need to stick to salsa, honestly.

Other than that, watching 'The F Word', a Gordon Ramsey cooking show.  Geebus does he cuss a lot! And he's mean as a rabid pit bull!  But he sure can cook..

Forum spamming done for now.

kyoto kid

...there are a places that do a nice thick 1/2 # burger but again you really pay for it and often it is ala carte so fries (which some places give hoity toity names like Frites and Pomfritz) cost extra and often they just have a bunch of different aiolis (which I can't have because they use egg yolk) instead of good ol' ketchup (too "plebeian" I guess). 

I also find  a half pound burger with fries is more than I can finish these days and taking it home is no good as it isn't the same when you warm it up later.

Guess I'm pretty basic when it comes down to going out to eat. Not into all that fancy overpriced gourmet stuff that oft times is more about presentation than substance.

Once I get the second system going to stream Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives  (dangerous). Great programme.

The only way to get music out of guitar strings it to play until you bleed on them.  Oh, and keep them in tune. :-|

Don't do champagne always get a headache from it even if I just have a couple glasses (can't afford the good stuff and the cheap brands are too sugary).  Fin Du Monde, excellent brew choice.  Heading out soon to get some Old Knucklehead barleywine over at the Bridgetown Brewery a few blocks away and restock my supply of cheese and stinky fish for the evening (old family tradition).  Portland may be expensive for housing, however when you can't swing a Gungan around by the tongue without hitting a brew pub, it makes it all worth it (and beer to go there is cheaper than in the supermart).

Triple-D!!!! OMG I love that show, they have it on Hulu and I binge on it every so often.  Bizarre Food is also a hit with me.

We have some 'upscale' burger places here, and they're... ok.. but it's not a $20+ dollar burger.  And yeah, $10 fried potatoes do not sit well with me.  For that money I can make a huge burger on fresh-baked bread, fresh fries, and a diet soda AND still have enough money for a six-pack of something good.  Argh!  Just makes me angry.
