What is new in your little world?
Re: What is new in your little world?
I did a little 'Time Travel' yesterday a simply marvelous experience.
Months ago I contacted by telephone my employer from 1973. Yes, 1973 and yes, before some of you were born. Yesterday I personally visited, traveled near 50 years back in time. Marvelous I just wish I had more time to of the wonderful experience....

Re: What is new in your little world?
No I haven't. Honestly though, it sounds like a shoebox with strings.
I did learn to play my very first notes on guitar with it though

Recall my sailing adventure? Well I have been asked to crew again and some 20 to 25 days this time up the Queensland coast. Same Skipper & boat, a beauty and an extra crewman this sail. Mind you, we're just in the planning stages but I am looking forward to it...

Friend ice climbing. Note that the end of his rope isn't attached to anything. Bad ass ended up soloing the route with the rope as training weight.
Different, more bad ass friend climbing a Popsicle.

Thin line between badass and dumbass...
Re: What is new in your little world?
Yeah I'm thinking the second one is more of a dumbass...

First photo is a very experienced ice climber. If he gets in trouble, he has options to back out of what he's doing. He's on terrain that's very easy for his level, so risk of actually falling is very low, though the consequence of falling would be high.
Second photo is a professional ice climber and sponsored athlete. Risk and consequence here is high, but so is his climbing ability, he's one of the world's best.

You playing nü-metal or something? :offended:Eraser wrote: Ibanez RG. Got .11 or even .12 strings on it. Can't remember exactly which. It's tuned down a half step with the low E string tuned down another whole step.
Re: What is new in your little world?
lol no, there was just one particular song I played with my band that required me to go low. We play mostly rock song covers ranging from the 70's up to today. Stuff like Queen, Pink Floyd, Aerosmith, RHCP, Genesis, Skunk Anansie, Guns N Roses, Muse or Black Sabbath.
In 2019 we did a live performance as part of an event to commemorate the 30 year anniversary of the fall of the Berlin wall. We played the Pink Floyd album "The Wall" (almost) in its entirety, which was really cool to do.

Re: What is new in your little world, well not new but old
Certainly appears my 60inch Samsung has given up the ghost.
Just 7 years up on the wall :tear: so I now need to sort out whether to go LED/OLED/QLED...
I know everyone has an opinion but I would appreciate thoughts. What do I avoid?

NVM
Bought the LG OLED CX model and it is to be delivered tomorrow
EDIT: Next day
1. Still wait delivery...
2. Bummer, discovered the old wall mount hardware need to be lowered somewhat and the fixings on the new LG OLED are at the bottom of the panel so I have enlisted a professional for the install...
3. Oh, and I am off for a few days, interstate
EDIT: Days later, returns from a great little drive south some 5 hours. No boarder closures to contend with.

Re: What is new in your little world?
Easter here and we spent some time cleaning out our recipes to discover so many old, yes old recipes.
Here's the back of a magazine clipping (New Idea) with a crossword.
Note the date and before some of you entered this world.
Not new I grant you

Installed Q3 Arena on my Kids PCs (Age 8 and 13) and we started having death matches with a few other extended family members. Game skills came back quickly and also found my 8 year old has some insane rail gun skills.
I haven't been here in a long time so I figured I would catch up and say what's up?

Regards what's up, I'd say same old, same old. Relatively quiet here. Are you still into those 'special' sets of wheels? I recon you've changed to a new model once or twice, not to mention the modifications
BTW, welcome back "Giraffe }{unter"

Re: What is new in your little world?
Thanks, I still lurk from time to time. I've got my wheels set for now...
I have an 2005 R/T magnum AWD which I wanted from way back when it was first announced. Found a pretty decent specimen a few hours away and this is my Daily driver, does awesome in the northeast snow. https://www.instagram.com/p/CMz0NColbuU/
My Garage Queen is an 18 Widebody hellcat I've had her for 2 years as well. https://www.instagram.com/p/CKnUgGFlze-/
Done a lot of work to her during the Pandemic
Air suspension - https://www.instagram.com/p/CKiK_w5FsZN/
Working of getting the interior fitted with forged carbon https://www.instagram.com/p/CNbAlU0lMSI/
Engine Bling for now https://www.instagram.com/p/CKFuTKCFLmi/
I had some engine modifications planned for this fall that would get me over 900 to the wheels on pump gas, but with all the talk on new car regulations I'm holding off to see how this shakes out. It's pretty scary to see that the EPA wants to take away the ability for street cars to be turned into race cars.

Nice. I applaud people that really look after their wheels and you certainly do that

Ugh instagram, too bad you need an account to see anything.

Re: What is new in your little world?
Two sites I refuse to sign up to. Turns out instagram is actually one of the worst companies in the world to share your data with 3rd parties. They're pretty aggressive too with how much data they try to get from you. GPS, photos, personal details, financial purchases etc... it's all being recorded and sold on an open market if you're part of their social network.
