The Uncertainty Principle: Meanwhile, in the dark, impenetrable void....

Yeah, I've been meaning to work on my shit...

Two mental cases walk into a bar----

holding nuclear weapons.......
Stop me if you've heard this one...OK ?

I try to keep myself as presentable as
possible now that i am a geezer..
Especially in public...

My reasoning behind this is that
now, at this age...
if i look shabby and act weird in public..
All it would take is one person shouting out---
"Somebody help that old man !!! "
and
I wind up in a home..?

When you are older---
you have to be much more careful
of the first impression you make on others...

Wait--

Am I supposed to feel sorry for these fuckers ???

Because one of their own did to them

what they are doing to millions ??

Rich loose private street in SF..

At the end of the summer I begin to prowl

Ebay for used Barbour jackets...

Barbour

Traditional British outdoor, motorcycle,

and military jackets. Insanely expensive now--

The choice of many from Steve McQueen..

To private purchases by British military members

from World War 2 to Afghanistan..

Barbour Jackets are my go to outerwear..

but extremely hard to acquire on a budget...

Henceforth my buying used from EBAY.

Last year I won a Motorcycle Barbour,

of the style favored by McQueen and

it is just awesome...

Right now I have a bid in on a

Barbour Cowen Commando lightweight smock.

The Cowen Commando was used during the

Falklands and the first Gulf War prior to

being retired...

8 pockets, Waxed exterior for weather-proofing,

desert tan--XL for layering with a vest.

I have high hopes for this auction--

maybe for less than 50 bucks..?

If i can acquire it for that price it is

probably, because no one else would wear it, maybe?

It pays to be somewhat strange---?

I've written previously on the resurgence
of the real left---

The below link is to an excellent article in
The Atlantic, which speaks openly
on Anarchists keeping a lid on neo-nazi
demonstrations..
The rise of the violent left
Our culture has forgotten how during
the Viet Nam War the real left was not to
be fucked with....

I've begun a new guitar mechanical project.
Restoring my 1972 Telecaster Custom.
This particular model was a favorite
of Keith Richards for close to 10 years..

This model Tele can provide rock&roll
deep big sound and Telecaster twang at the same time.

I had loaned this guitar out for, well,
quite a few years actually and just got it back...
(I know--I do this sometimes..)
A stock photo of this guitar brand new---

and now mine--

It came home a bit worse for wear..

Years ago i had the standard, Blah,
Fender, neck Humbucker
replaced with a Fender Lace Sensor Humbucker..
for a much deeper richer sound..
I want to get this guitar going again..
so..
I am in the process of detail cleaning this guitar,

replacing the pick guard screws with blacked out ones..
fixing the plug in jack and plate, replacing the tone and
volume knobs with a set that is easier to operate on the fly,
replacing the white selector switch with a blacked-out switch,
and adding a black telecaster "ashtray..."
