	I work for a guy named Pedro, I'll ask him! (When we load to do pressure washing we already call the three hoses: Jose, Hose B and Hose C. ? )
 - 
	Apparently, I neglected to hit Submit and my entry of the Talking Heads Take Me To The River went to Pwalpwal. Continuing on!

	Dgoo bjo dik!

	Hey Bub, as someone who got put into that position a couple of times, try this simple exercise: Every morning, as soon as you wake up, say this sentence to yourself (one or more times): Great things are coming my way! I can explain later why it works, but it won't cost you anything so give it a shot! To help you remember, you can tape it to your bathroom mirror (or whatever you are most likely to see right after you wake up). I have it both as a note in my wallet as well as the image on my computer lock screen (one of the first things I do after I wake up is to turn my computer monitor on and there it is!). I know of others it has worked for, but it also worked for me! ? It can't hurt, so give it a try!

	My math teacher called my friend average, but I think she was just being mean...

	They do on this keyboard! ?

	Well, as you know, 86% of all statistics are useless. (Including that one! ?)

				Did you make more music when you retired?
craigb replied to smallstonefan's topic in The Coffee House
Does that include other types of plugins? (You don't have to admit to any, er, "adult" kind! Really, please don't. ?) - 
	Whoa! Almost forgot to make this topic musical! Here you go. ?

	Add to that irony the lady in the beginning talking about how things can go wrong. We had several scenes that looked just like that one (the family on the lawn putting on a personal display) around here on Monday...

	Wow, I've seen plenty of dumb things but this ranks right up there! SMH...

	About once every couple of years this video shows up in my YouBoob feed... Then I'm compelled to watch it at least a few times in a row.

	Old Speckled Hen was a favorite (though I don't really drink anymore). This was also a favorite (and created by the owner of the pub I played darts out of!): https://craftbeertime.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/RogueImperialYoungersSpecialBitterAle-500x669.jpg And I used to have this on tap in my home bar: http://www.tasty-takes.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/P1000409.jpg

If farts count as music, then I probably will! ? TBH, I still have some desire to make music, but thanks to how life has turned out, I've had to sell or give away just about everything which has meant the loss of most of whatever skill and knowledge I had. The thought of trying to almost start over learning instruments, theory and ear training is daunting. The other issue is that the current BS World seems to want me retired now as I'm apparently too old (will be 60 next year), the wrong color and over-qualified for just about anything I apply for! I'm really hoping to keep my current part-time job going for as long as I can stand it (we should find out soon if we get a year extension on our contract which ends in September). - 
	Ah, Texas! One of those Northern Mexico states. ??

	I've had beer in 18 different countries and, still, the worst tasting beer I've ever had (albeit the best advertised) was Bud. Those Down Under have a similar loser with Foster's (it's Australian for p iss mate!). https://www.nwdreamer.com/misc/bud.wav

	Shouldn't you use an actual metal guitar? ? (I mean, if you were playing the Stones, maybe a concrete guitar would make sense, but... ? )
 - 
	Well, one Budweiper drinker did notice an improvement in taste... ?
 - 
	Just use any cup with light beer in it. The owner won't notice! ?
 - 
	Guess the association? ?
