  by LittleToe in

  2. friends

  the background to this thread is that i love wearing (?

  ) a beard, but my wife hates it.

  i've changed my profile pic to reflect four states of facial hairiness (if it doesn't show, hit "refresh" on your browser).. i'm interested in your opinions.

  You are 27% Pure! (Very interesting.)
  
  
  
  Here's how the REST of the world breaks down, compared to you:
  
  

  	people less pure than you (3%)
  	people like you (0%)
  	people more pure than you (97%)

  Not bad.... and I didnt even lie.

  boomboom car stereos...

  i live in klumbus ohio, in a neighborhood that ain't da hood but it ain't the 'burbs either.. it seems that if you are a male under 25 in my area and you don't have a 10,000 watt car stereo that shakes the whole neighborhood, well, you're nothing.. i don't get hip-hop culture.

  i think that it is a screaming commentary on the cultural rot in the usa.. could someone comfort me or help explain the appeal of this pervasive sub-culture?

  the depravity of it all makes me feel so hopeless sometimes.. maybe i'm a little too narrowly caucasian in my outlook.

  Had LDH gone for a ride with me when I was in California last month, she would have heard some of the loudest drag pipes found on a full dressed Harley (they are usually quiet from the factory). I like the sound, the pipes look good (mixed chrome/burn stains/rust), and they are cheap. I always ran them and will.

  Now, for those that dislike the Harleys noise, remember this.... we have cars playing music with the windows up driving near us at high speeds.... or deaf old women and men ... or celphone users.... etc, and the pipes DO work at getting thier attention. One twist of the throttle on mine and heads turn... but I am only looking at the one dummy about to hit me.

  Now, I head for work at 530AM... and none of my neighbors have complained, and yes... I asked. I am not one to rev it up for the hell of it. I will rev it at a light tho, as someone mentioned... and there is a reason. My Harley, and all other Harleys, are air cooled. We have no water like cars, colling our oil. As it heats up, you need to move the oil more when you are sitting still. This isnt bullshit, really. Some people just overdo it.

  Anyone want a ride?

  What irritates you?

  by writerpen in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  what irritates me is when the car in front of me on the interstate leaves his turning signal on for 8 miles.

  i was so irritated at this coming back from lunch today that all i could think of was, 'wouldn't it be great if i had a rocket installed in this little car so i could blow his car off the road?

  ' why do we get pissed at little stuff like this?

  I worked my ass off to not let things get me mad. So far so good, and it makes for a happier being.

  Frustration pushes my buttons tho... I have to immediatly move away from whatever is frustrating me. At one time not too many years ago, I was well known for breaking things, from pencils to picking up and throwing a motorcycle down. It was getting expensive.......

  Story: Sound Dept. (at Assembly)

  by Jim_TX in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  when i was a jw - many moons ago, i hung around the 'sound department' at assemblies.. they finally put me to work - and let me do things like string wire for speakers, install speakers, etc.. i eventually learned how to adjust the amplifiers for proper volume, too.. good experience and training, that i don't use to this day.. anyway - i also was allowed to adjust the microphones for the 'speaker' who would be giving the next talk.. this usually involved following the feller out to the podium, and raising, or lowering the microphone to the proper height fer picking up the words from the fellers' mouth.. some required very little adjustment, whilst others required major raising - or lowering.. this one time, i recall going out there, and they had used a new microphone stand - one that had a ring, or collar arrangement that you just squeezed, or rotated and lifted, to move the microphone up or down, as opposed to the older type that required one to unscrew a locking collar, and then raise or lower the microphone.. i had not tested this previously - and only seen others work it, but it looked easy enough.. so, i follow this 'big-wig' out there, stand there, grab the upper section of the microphone stand with one hand, and then with the other i am attempting to <grunt> <grunt> get it... to ... release.. it wouldn't budge!!!

  i was there, for what seemed like an eternity, trying to work this thing, then finally reached up and adjusted the horizontal arm - in a vain attempt to adjust the mic (it also refused to cooperate, and i think i only adjusted the microphone a total of 1/8").. the 'big-wig' speaker musta noticed my total and complete embarrassment (i usually turned beet-red in the face), and nodded that it was adjusted properly - so he could git on with his part.. i skeedadled off that stage - and made a mental note to figure out how to adjust that new type of microphone stand - later..

  sheesh!!!

  I was also a sound guy..... our funny stunt was to hand a microphone off to another soundguy.. passing them close enuff to get some major feedback thru the speakers.... then watch the dubs faces wrinkle up.....

  I think I was also involved in wiring up Veterens Stadium in 70 or 71....

  What kind of Apostate are YOU?

  by SYN in

  2. friends

  that's right, what class of apostate do you fit into?

  personally, i'm of the faithless (i'm close to being an athiest) and indiscreet (no explanation needed) class.. are you of the enviable smurf apostate class?

  or perhaps even the haunted second-hand furniture apostate class?
