    Credit from nothing

    I'm sure this is not a sure fire thing. My parents had a credit card I used for a long time when I was younger. Would go out of state driving at 15. Would use the credit card if I needed it. Along the way I took over and paid on it and somehow they transferred it over to my name. No idea how it...

    I've ordered a number of things from them lately. It all came free shipping and they send it Fed Ex and was delivered in two days. Once on a Sunday. Beats ordering stuff where the last leg of it comes via the USPS which I am not a fan of in the least.

    Coronavirus Updates, Important Information, and Ancedotal Experience

    I think it depends a lot on where you are. In Baton Rouge which is adjacent to the hotspot in New Orleans that a lot of people commute back and forth to they advertise testing in lots of places. At least one location still open doing drive in testing. Same for the antibody testing. I went to the...

    Do you know first hand anyone who has been proven to test positive for Covid-19?

    I tested positive for the antibodies a week or so ago. I don't think the test is all that reliable.

    I really thought about picking up this ephiphone Dot (ES 335) after I got an offer on it. I really like the look, but the weights 8lbs 8oz wouldn't really help me out in getting something lighter...

    Epic Games Storefront - A Good Incentive for Piracy

    I don't have either. Neither not really my type of game but I'll check them out for free. Publicity I guess, I'm not sure how many people that those are their types of games haven't already bought them on steam.

    Played them all when they were new. I still play through the wizardry series including the real early ones. Played them originally too. Just something to pass time.

    I really don't know what to do. I'm an odd person out I know that. Until just recently I invested my money in a few businesses that I knew well and gained some control by investing in them The diversity was near zero but I accepted that risk. Even in 2008-2009 during the downturn it worked out...

    My grandmother who is 99 sent me some money. Mom talked to her and told her to stop sending me money she might need it. She told my mom "I'm not going to live forever I'll do what I want with money and you can't stop me" LOL. She finally stopped sending cash.

    Bought the epiphone es339 for $399 off reverb new. Been playing around with the multi effects today. So far just learning as mentioned only played witn a compression pedal and looper before. Not bad for $100 to get a taste of all the stuff before going for each pedal. Zoom G1X Four.

    I normally play clean with my tele with nothing but a compression pedal and a looper. Got a multi Fx pedal as a gift to try out some other things before I go with a single pedal. I gotta dive in and figure out how to do a firmware update. I can program the pedal with via USB but can't firmware...

    That's not bad at all. This one was just $499 down to $401. Nothing major just wondering if it ever worked. I want that color even though it's a year behind the current one.

    Very stupid question of the day. I've NEVER even looked at a Les Paul. Are the epiphone les pauls like a studio or standard totally flat top? It's hard to tell from the phots if it's flat with a finish highlight or got a small curve to it. Not that it really matters.

    My example is from the engineering world. Translate from an engineer to the shop which may be a redneck or coon ass and same to the field, and back again. Not a word for word translation, but get the point across in a timely and effective manner, sometimes instantly.

    Worse than I thought. Power here went out for a few minutes was it. Everything in town just minutes away is now closed. Wal mart, all the grocery stores, all the traffic lights are off. Mom went to walmart and they were closed and she said lot of building damage everywhere.

    Made a good living translating between english, redneck and sometimes ebonics from professionals to trades people. You make your language fit your audience if you want to accomplish something. In fact I would say it has been my major skill in business.
