Ya' know, if we PRETEND we know whats going on, this is actually kind of exciting?

So confused about everything..
So much white noise---?

Well by now it's well known that...
numerous "Large Drones" has been spotted
flying in complicated formation patterns,
over both eastern Colorado and western Nebraska..?
The local Sheriff has urged citizens to
NOT SHOOT AT...
whatever these objects may be---?
So exactly WTF is actually going on here..?
Nothing to see here citizen, move along.....

This kid, in Texas,
 (of course)
after getting a magnifying glass for Christmas
ran out and sent the front lawn on fire...???
His family had to run out and put a pretty large
fire out in front of the neighbors on Christmas morning...?
Why is it that I can tell from his picture,
(lower left corner of the above photo)
in just two seconds...
is that....
he is just not the kind of kid to give a magnifying glass to,
but apparently his parents, who live with him,
 cannot figure this fucking out---?
Expect way more damage Meme's outa this kid on the Internet
in the future...!!!

I finally got up the courage to install the neck on
the Esquire guitar project..
Honestly I had been afraid of doing this since..
a singular mistake would be non-repairable
and totally fuck the entire project?
I actually accomplished it---!
After marking the hole positions with paint
through the guitar body, I used the neck mount
screws to mark the exact drill spot on the marks
and drilled the mounting holes on the neck butt....
Then attached the neck plate and bushing,
and screwed the neck to to body.
At this point everything looks good----
the neck appears even, balanced and in line...
although the frets sides need to be smoothed
(this is called dressing the frets)
I then installed the bridge, the single pickup
electronics..The bad part is that the pickup material
I waited so long for out of China would separate layers...
So I replaced it with a black pick guard...
I actually like the look perhaps even more..?
I still need to adjust the pickup height, adjust the bridge
and string it up but it is close to being completed...?


You never know with guitars how anything
will effect the string height and action..
the neck action is a balance between the neck, bridge and body...
all of which have zero science involved in setting a guitar up...?
Setting up a guitar action is like finding your way
around a totally dark room you've never been in before...
My guitar's end result is still unknown...

The link below is to an amazing article on
the Sony Albo robotic dog culture in Japan..
What is especially interesting is how culturally
different Japan is, the Japanese love robots, 
compared to 
 Americans who are afraid and distrust robots?
It is interesting and touching to learn
 how much real companionship
these very,very expensive, little robots 
provide to the Japanese elderly..?
This is a worthwhile read...

Season 2 on Netflix...
