That's a pretty complex insult, for a drunk.

0000 hrs,
New Years eve, 
I had a true, spontaneous thought:
2017 will be good. 
this thought simply appeared in my brain..
This was not wishful thinking--

I have now watched every (free) episode of
Top Gear 

on Amazon streaming...

I so want one of these:

A Gretsch G100ce Synchromatic cutaway.
Fucking awesome...

Suddenly according to the Internet,
You should not clean your ears with Q-tips?
doctors-seriously-stop-sticking-q-tips-in-your-ears
Despite all this expertise these articles don't really
say how you should clean them at home...

 The Web is always positioned "just one click off"
of providing any real help!!
Especially this blog!
The only thing the web writers advise is to
 ask your doctor to clean your ears for you---?
 sure--
The doctor would really fucking love to do that for me...
just bring a bazillion dollars...
he probably just stick a Q-tip in there.

My wife and I
 jointly, voluntarily decided to stop watching the 
Walking Dead--?
A series we loved.

The ending episode of season 6 just did us in for it...

I have become, perhaps overly focused on the guitar

I've been practicing 2-3 hours a day now.
The state of retirement permits this time investment.
I am on a constant search for a unique "sound"
and style for a solo performer.

I received my Trio plus pedal this past week and
it is outstanding--it appears as if I may be able to
 perfect and store background, drum & Bass tracks to be recovered 
during performance, if i do my part properly?
This is one major, structural performing requirement accomplished!
The difficulty with having a piece of gear
actually solve a guitar problem for you is that one immediately
falls victim to G.A.S.
Gear acquisition syndrome.

Gear acquisition syndrome
strikes a guitar player when one believes that new
equipment will actually increase their playing ability?
Very similar to when an old guy buys a Ferrari 
believing that it will make him physically desirable?
There is no known cure...

Billy Bob Thornton was amazing.
