  1. Is this a case of "What took you so long?" or "Who in the world would buy this? Discuss. https://www.gibson.com/blogs/gibson-gazette/gibson-custom-announces-les-paul-custom-long-scale
  2. If anyone ever needed increased light sensitivity, peripheral vision kaleidoscopic dazzle effects, itchy skin rash and diminished/altered sense of taste, I have about a two-month supply of voriconazole in the medicine cabinet. I think I'll hang on to the leftover Vicodin. It may come in handy some day.
  3. In my case, the choice was between pulling a Jimmy Buffett or taking Keytruda after my surgeries and radiation treatments. I decided 2 years of infusions was better than the alternative. Call or see your health care provider right away if you develop any signs or symptoms of the following problems or if they get worse. These are not all of the signs and symptoms of immune system problems that can happen with KEYTRUDA or KEYTRUDA QLEX: Lung problems: cough, shortness of breath, or chest pain. Intestinal problems: diarrhea (loose stools) or more frequent bowel movements than usual; stools that are black, tarry, sticky, or have blood or mucus; or severe stomach-area (abdomen) pain or tenderness. Liver problems: yellowing of your skin or the whites of your eyes; severe nausea or vomiting; pain on the right side of your stomach area (abdomen); dark urine (tea colored); or bleeding or bruising more easily than normal. Hormone gland problems: headaches that will not go away or unusual headaches; eye sensitivity to light; eye problems; rapid heartbeat; increased sweating; extreme tiredness; weight gain or weight loss; feeling more hungry or thirsty than usual; urinating more often than usual; hair loss; feeling cold; constipation; your voice gets deeper; dizziness or fainting; changes in mood or behavior, such as decreased sex drive, irritability, or forgetfulness. Kidney problems: decrease in the amount of your urine; blood in your urine; swelling of your ankles; loss of appetite. Skin problems: rash; itching; skin blistering or peeling; painful sores or ulcers in your mouth or in your nose, throat, or genital area; fever or flu-like symptoms; swollen lymph nodes. Problems can also happen in other organs and tissues. Signs and symptoms of these problems may include: chest pain; irregular heartbeat; shortness of breath; swelling of ankles; confusion; sleepiness; memory problems; changes in mood or behavior; stiff neck; balance problems; tingling or numbness of the arms or legs; double vision; blurry vision; sensitivity to light; eye pain; changes in eyesight; persistent or severe muscle pain or weakness; muscle cramps; low red blood cells; bruising. Infusion, injection-related, and allergic reactions that can sometimes be severe or life-threatening.

  4. At least there'll be one child born in this world to carry on, to carry on.
  5. All I know is that if you want to get to the Coachella Valley and the big carrot festival therein, you have to make a left turn at Albuquerque.
  6. I just wrapped up the meeting with my sister-in-law, her attorney and a notary. A whole slew of documents had to be signed to allow the sale of their house. At least now they have the funding they need to continue his care.
  7. My brother has it. He's a couple of years older than me, and was first diagnosed about 20 years ago. His wife recently had to move him into a memory care nursing facility. She has to sell their house so they can afford the care. Since my brother is incapable of understanding anything and can't express himself at all, I have to sign the documents on his behalf.
  8. The only Easter-egg-like color guitars I have also happen to be Peaveys.
  9. Janis covered it herself. The original recording was by Aretha Franklin's sister, in 1967.
  10. They May Never Pass This Way Again
  11. Nylon is a brand name, like Kleenex. The generic term is polyamide. There are many different grades of polyamide, of which what we think of as nylon is a subset. Jump deep into the weeds here: https://www.specialchem.com/plastics/guide/polyamide-pa-nylon
  12. Many years ago when I was gigging occasionally, my bass rig was determined by what could fit in my car and what could be carried through narrow doorways. It seemed there were always obstacles to wheeled transport- high curbs, thresholds, stairs. I got a couple of lightweight neodymium magnet 2X10s I could stack vertically for cramped stages. Since it was bass, one instrument was enough for any gig. Sometimes I had enough room in the car for tubs full of PA cables and extensions cords in addition to my own stuff.
  13. When I was discovering The Clash, I couldn't imagine the Elvis inspiration.
