Re: Telecasters of Song Fight!

The Crappiest Fender Telecaster: Here's my Telecaster, which I bought used in 2014. It's the shittiest version ever made with the Fender name. The story I heard was that sometime in the 90s Fender had a bunch of extra parts they shipped to Mexico, and the factory slapped them together and labeled t...

Adventureland for the TRS-80

Hey do you remember playing text adventures on a TRS-80? No of course you don't, because you were born after the Ottoman Empire dissolved. You've never known a time before the polio vaccine, before movies had sound, before Oklahoma gained US statehood (still a mistake, IMO). But if, like me, you are...

Re: Where would you move to if <not your candidate> wins in November?

As for the general notion of moving away when someone terrible gets elected, I can’t help but think of a verse from Andrew Jackson Jihad’s song “Lady Liberty”: Give me your tired, give me your tired, give me your poor When our government acts like this, I don't wanna live here anymore Sure I could b...

Re: Where would you move to if <not your candidate> wins in November?

I tried to move to Canada in 2011 - not due to problems with the administration at that time, but due to immigration issues. We were not considered legally married in the US, so my husband’s status was at risk. We figured the safest way to remain in North America would be to move to Canada, where ou...

Re: Acoustic Guitar Recommendations

Thanks a ton Pigfarmer Jr and Sober for all of that info and advice. I think you're both right, I should look for safe opportunities to try guitars out before buying, since I'll be living with whichever guitar I choose for several years. I looked into craigslist, but most of the sellers seem to be s...
