morphsci Posted December 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2014 Went to work to finish up the data to show why the dean has no clue and does not care about the long term health of our college. Probably won't endear me to him. But fuck him if he refuses to talk over important decisions before he goes off half-cocked. Then came home and helped put up the Tim Howard fathead in Peter's room. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skullguise Posted December 27, 2014 Report Share Posted December 27, 2014 (edited) Grrr, good luck with it. Indeed, things should go in your favor through eBay. But wouldn't it be good to know that this kid got a good chew-out or the like from a pissed-off dad..... EDIT: this for older Peter. For younger Peter: looks very cool!

Dusty Chalk Posted December 27, 2014 Report Share Posted December 27, 2014 Actually, the kid responded very well, and admittedly full responsibility for the confusion, and promised to refund all my money if it didn't show up, and even went so far as to say that it was alright that I got angry because it was as a result of her confusion. Which already bodes well, because a real scammer wouldn't have bothered responding, right? RIGHT?!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roadtonowhere08 Posted December 27, 2014 Report Share Posted December 27, 2014 Why would it not show up? Wrong address? Sloppy handwriting? Sent via DHL? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dusty Chalk Posted December 27, 2014 Report Share Posted December 27, 2014 Because she's a newb, that's all. And actually, she found the receipt, and according to the number, it's already in Merrifield, so I'll be checking the box later today. Fucking ainmosni. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dusty Chalk Posted December 28, 2014 Report Share Posted December 28, 2014 Went to Crossroads Guitar Shop, got talked into buying a Vox Mini5 -- it'll be great. I like the size, I can put it right in front of me in place of a laptop. Went to post office -- picked up above discussed guitar. (Uh...yeah, did I mention it was another guitar? Cheap one, at least.) Tuning it now, works like a champ! I didn't get scammed, hurray! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VPI Posted December 28, 2014 Report Share Posted December 28, 2014 I have the same Mini5 from Crossroads. Great little amp when you figure out some of the rhythm and guitar types. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roadtonowhere08 Posted December 28, 2014 Report Share Posted December 28, 2014 I'm not sure you ever mentioned what it was, Dusty, so the mini saga had me intrigued. Could have been an autographed picture of Grumpy Cat for all I knew Glad it ended well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

guzziguy Posted December 28, 2014 Report Share Posted December 28, 2014 Drove back from Hemet, CA where I spent Christmas with my sister, brother, his wife, his daughter and her fiance. It was a great time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grahame Posted December 28, 2014 Report Share Posted December 28, 2014 Started the day admiring the Pacific Coastline Then drove back through various places with lots of land, but not so many people, showing various signs of economic health (Willits, Ukiah, Healdsburgh) Now back at home with some Downton and a Diet Coke 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ironbut Posted December 31, 2014 Report Share Posted December 31, 2014 Spent this morning getting a cardiac stress test (to check a small anomaly on a regular EKG). I may be 60 but I think I'm in pretty decent shape,.. or I used to! They put me on that treadmill and started jacking up the speed/tilt and I gotta say that I was just about to say "Uncle" when it finally ended! Kinda makes me want to join a gym,..kinda.

crappyjones123 Posted January 2, 2015 Report Share Posted January 2, 2015 After a 27 hour marathon editing session, I am finally done with the lab manual I was making for one of the classes. It feels good to be done but I am so exhausted that I can't even sleep. I'm sure I'll crash soon but man this thing took forever but I am proud of the final product.
