Yeah… maybe I should go back to accordion. Or didgeridoo. Hard to go wrong with a tube, LOL.
I guess… some people are crafty, and some people write software, and I’m not the former, for sure.

On the flip side, my new-to-me Ibanez doesn’t seem to have any problems. Not even shielding or grounding related hum. So, yay for that.

My programming teacher used to say you can’t make anything fool proof because you can’t out think a fool

Yep. Never argue with idiots. First, they’ll drag you down to their level, amd then beat you with their experience.

My Mom always says that to appear an idiot in the eyes of a cretin is a delight for the true connoisseur. I believe it’s from Georges Courtelline.

I knew a guy in the military @John_E called Dave Preston.
But his nickname was Wedge Preston. I asked his boss ‘Why is he called Wedge?’
“Ah, that’s because the wedge is the simplest tool known to mankind”

My favourite nickname was given to a guy when we were on an operational tour.
Things got a little bit interesting at an LZ, some people fired at us, we fired back etc. Good times all round.
This one individual did not do well when the chips were down and hid behind a low wall in the fetal position, leaving the rest of us to deal with the situation.
We get back and for the rest of the tour he was known as ‘deck chair’; because he folded under a little bit of pressure.
