Tonight's adventure took me from Metallica to every facial hair hair article on there, sidetracked to Lemmy and Frank Beard (Motorhead and ZZ Top, respectively) then over to Frida Kahlo, then Adolf Hitler, then automated lip reading, and... this list is getting long.
Did you know Bobby Fischer was a Holocaust denier? I sorta thought he was just into chess...
Instructions with phony steps IE the last step being "enjoy!" or "play!" or "marvel!" It's an idiotic ploy to... uh... I'm not even sure why someone would do that!
You guys know what I'm talkin' about here right?
"HOW TO MAKE SAMMICH STEP ONE GET BREAD STEP TWO GET ANOTHER STEP THREE GET FILLINS STEP FOUR ASSEMBLE STEP FIVE YUM!"
I suspect assholes like that just don't know how to end something, or have OCD and need to round stuff up to multiples of five.
How do you dudes and ladies fight it? And don't say Audacity, or any other program where you need to rerecord the whole song. That is a good way to ruin a track, and lose stereo quality.
UPDATE: It's now a threat. I got some music (LEGALLY: RUCKUS) that I can't find anywhere else (NOT EVEN ILLEGALLY: BITTORRENT) and it's DRM protected. That means I can only listen to it on my computer. Not my car. Not my MP3 player. Not any other computer.
Well
damn. I haven't written a new blog entry in forever. And when I do
decide to buckle down and do it, I choose the one day in which I just
got done thrashing about (we played two Maiden albums and two Metallica
albums back to back).
On top of that, my grandparents arrive tomorrow. And I think they want
to give me money. Does anyone else feel horrible inside when they
receive money? On top of THAT, I haven't showered yet tonight. And it doesn't look like I will get the chance to, seeing as how my father frowns upon running the water late at night.
Sorry for the depressing post folks. If your eye happens to catch this sentence before you start from the top, don't read this post. If you already read the above, you can't un-read it. Sorry.
Well if you haven't noticed, I moved all the relevant blogs from Google. I have always needed a blog to keep my writing skills up (since I am no longer in school writing an essay a week). I feel like I need to keep my ability to express myself sharp. (Why not type in a notepad file? Your guess is as good as mine at this point)
Well hopefully, I will be able to update regularly. I should be able to, seeing as how UG tends to load. And I don't have to enter my password fifty times, only to find out the admin changed it under suspicion of spam. I LIKE TO START MY SENTENCES WITH "I" OKAY??
On an unrelated note, I wish I had a laptop. I am always clearest and most coherent in the shower. I can express exactly what I want in the most eloquent and understandable way (If I do say so myself). Example: the above sentence took a minute or two to compose!
I want to know how much traffic this UG blog would get. It might get more than where my blog is currently posted (blogger). Blogger is hell of lame and Google keeps treating me like their bi-otch, so I am considering moving it here.
Just post a comment if you read this, so I can count how many eyes saw my words.
Well today it was finally finished. I am behind in posting because it was finished a few days ago but then my mom burned it up.
ANYWAY
it sounds great, I didn't put new strings on, but I put old ones on and
tuned to C#. Now that thing (along with my Marshall) NAILS the Black
Sabbath tone, especially the heavy doomy riffs of the third and fourth
albums. I couldn't help but eschew my usual repertoire and play Sabbath
all day long. Switching the pickups really makes a difference, although
I am convinced I messed up somewhere with the tone knob. I almost wish
I hadn't replaced the capacitor. Also, the thing works backwards now!
Whatever though. I'm not taking the thing apart again. New switch is super neat though.
