That Seedy Table In The Dark Corner Where The Reprobates Gather

Good deal on the amp, Woody. The Weber Blue in the Defender sounds like a good idea. I'm enjoying the Celestion in mine.
 
"Shane. Shane. Come back, Shane!"

I just found out one of the less desirable day shift cow-orkers is moving to a different department.
I'm next in line for a day spot.
Two birds, one stone!

Great Movie. I don't know how they did it but when Ladd fires that 6 shooter it sounds like a cannon.

Lifted this from Wikipedia

In addition, Shane was one of the first films in which actors were attached to hidden wires that yanked them backwards when they were shot from the front. Director George Stevens also used a small cannon and fired it into a garbage can to create the loud report of the pistol for maximum effect. Stevens was in World War II and saw what a single bullet can do to a man.[11]

And you didn't even have to threaten them?
 
Tig - I have felt that when someone leaves a department the remaining people become more valuable. A good thing.

Morning...

My company sent a heads up that they will be blocking gmail and other "external" mail and sure enough they did this morning. I have tried the work arounds I could find - but they seem to have it locked down really tight. I have not tried a mail client- but not sure I want to go that route. If anyone knows a work around speak up. BUT I can access here.

In speaker news: I swapped the Celestion G10N-40 into the Laney. It sounds at least as good as the Weber Blue Pup I had in there. When I throw a pedal on this afternoon I'll have a better idea if this Celestion is a better match for the Laney.
 
Woody, you should totally set it up so all those fractional cents gets transferred to a bank account in the Cayman Islands. What could possibly go wrong?

EG - Office Space - love it.

Hey I think I am going to sell the Weber Alnico Blue Pup 10" 30 W. If anyone has interest, ping me. I'd like to see around $70 out of it.

Smart Phone....... You don't have to worry about using the corp. network and they can't spy on you. I never check personal emails or anything from the work computer. We can have the corp. spy corps connect in to our computers any time to look at what we are doing. From my iPhone or iPad I can screw around all l want at work. Kind of like I'm doing now.
 
I don't have a smart phone- but I have a Droid device I may bring this into the offices to see if there is a Public wifi I can hook into. That would work.
 
Afternoon. Waiting to go on a team conference call in a bit; should be a hoot :rolleyes:

Well, I'm having second thoughts about the POD HD500 I recently got. Again, although it does what it does well, it's a jack of all trades and master of none - the Line 6 conundrum. If I was gigging, I would seriously think about using one for the versatility, but since I'm not...I just really like the sound of an amp, be it tube or a good SS. My Mustang III stomps the crap out of it tonewise, whereas the L6 is much more versatile, but the amp sounds are actually kinda "meh" - some are good, some outright suck, and that is spending hours playing with settings and tweaking everything. With the Mustang, it's select a basic amp preset, tweak the tone stack onboard to taste, maybe dial in a bit of reverb, and there you go. So, I'm probably going to bring back the POD HD and the powered PA speaker and get either a Tweaker 15 (for the second time) or a Blues Jr III :embarrassed:.

I have an M9 in my cover band rig and I use it for modulation and delay sounds. And sparingly at that. It's useful but there is a reason why it's in my work rig and not my "personal" setup.

It was kind of odd that they listed a kitten there - I expect there was special circumstances.

Yeh - we talked with the Foster Mom. She was concerned Skye was not gaining weight, and said she still had some ocasional "accidents". But this woman has 6 (SIX !) other dogs in the house. My guess is he just needs more attention and stability. I think that would help him. No other downside I can see.
 
Furnace stopped working sometime last night. Got a fire in the fireplace going.

Good luck with dog search Woody.
 
Bob - Furnace mojo

Back in the offices today. On Friday's I type up my status reports, and time sheets. Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet...
 
Morning, all! :Wave:

Bob, heat mojo - got kinda nipply last night.

Woody, first Sasha, now Skye - hope for a good two-in-a-row :thu:

Between calls now; probably gonna stop by GC to return the POD and get...


...oh, and even though I work tomorrow and Sunday night, and since I haven't done this "over there" for a couple of weeks, maybe I should carry it on over here:




FRIDAY!!! Totally_jammin_out
