I am not involved with the retail side of the guitar shop anymore, but
am busy with another aspect of it. The new location has a large, open
space that I am converting into a new performance venue. I am in the
process of finishing up a 24 foot by 12 foot stage and two new rooms for
related uses. I've framed, wired and insulated everything and am now
working on the drywall and acoustic treatments. Finish work for the
drywall (spackling) isn't something I am very good at, so I decided I'll
just plaster it all with a trowel for the "stucco" look. Once that's
all done it will be time to install the stage lights, sound system,
mixing board and recording gear. Quite a project but it keeps me busy
and off the streets.



I admire your "retirement," Eisbocher.

========================

I enjoy it and it's good exercise. After spending so many years
sitting behind a desk it's kinda fun to take on a "hands on" project
and get a sense of accomplishment that you can actually see progress
being made, wood splinters and all. I don't try to do it 8 hours a
day, but try to get at least something accomplished everyday. Quite a
project.

I had some early experience in the Navy (way back when) working with
some Seabees doing construction and learned a little about framing
and drywalling but I certainly am no expert at it. But, it's coming
out pretty decent. The electrical wiring is something I can handle
and I learned a lot about what bands and performers are looking for in
terms of sound reinforcement systems, etc. When we had the original
shop with it's performance stage, it was rewarding and fun to see
people use it and enjoy it. So, I decided to do it again.

Probably the main reason is that it keeps Mrs.E from going crazy
having to put up with me every hour of the day.

That's a lot of work. Is it going to be a bar?

Nah. I've had my fill of drunks and the liability is too much to
worry about when you sell or serve booze.

We had an unspoken and unpublished BYOB policy at the first
performance venue we had. It worked out fine. Many people who
attended the concerts or open mic nights would bring a small cooler
with a few beers or some wine in it. One couple that attended
regularly brought a little kit and made margaritas. They'd have one
each in giant glasses and just sip it slowly throughout the evening.
Never had any issues or problems. People just enjoyed the music and
had a good time.

The liquor laws are funny in this state. If you have a liquor
license, you cannot allow BYOB. But as long as the town doesn't have
a specific ordinance that prohibits it, and you don't have a liquor
license, BYOB is perfectly legal. The big difference is that *you*
are not selling or serving it, so your liability is limited. We'll
probably do the same at the new place.

Meanwhile, my oldest son who moved to South Carolina last year is in
the process of buying a liquor store, it's inventory and it's license.
He has been updating me with progress reports. It's quite a process.

I have hung and finished more drywall in my life than I ever imagined. I
used to do commercial drywall and got a buck a board for hanging, and a
buck and a half to finish. Young and foolish, I worked many hours, late
into the night but to me it was great money. The good thing about it, I
can still finish drywall very nicely!

You know what. SO ****ING WHAT! We get your ****ing point, how many more
posters do you want to drive away. It's a shame you progressives all
work the same way. Take any poster who opposes your ideology and beat
them to the ground till they leave. Tom, Tim, Dick a few times, and
hundreds of others have been driven from here over the years because of
you and harry and your friends... What the ****, we get it already....
Holy ****... get over yourself. You win, you and harry can drive any
poster from here you wish, wow, what an accomplishment in life. Speaking
of life, get one...

There have been times in the past when you have left because of the
bull****... That's all I was saying. Maybe not this last time but I
didn't think I would have to extrapolate each and every statement
here... Sorry.

Sorry?? After the things you've said about him recently? Yes, you are
sorry. And of course, you're still being an asshole.

FAIRMONT, N.C. -- Authorities say a 10-year-old boy was killed in
North Carolina when he was shot by his father while the parent cleaned
a shotgun.

Robeson County deputies say 34-year-old Christopher Stanlane was on
the couch in his Fairmont home wiping down the gun around 4 p.m.
Sunday when it fired.

Investigators say the boy was sitting in front of his father watching
television and was struck in the head. Paramedic declared him dead at
the home.

No charges have been filed, and deputies are still investigating the
shooting.

Orgasm time for jps?

Sick puppy.
