    Everquest Confessions

    Before summoning was put in I used to pull a griffin or whatever it was in EC and lay waste to the tunnel to alts and semi afk people. People would often pull Sgt. Slate out of the tunnel and then it was go time. Rest of the time I just generally avoided people.

    Yeah I'm from Louisiana and lived 20+ years in Texas. Had nothing on the time I was in Alaska as far as mosquitos. The entire southeast is way ahead of average for rainfall this year, in many areas on track to break all time rainfall amounts.

    Even if transitory, on things like a car that really doesn't apply unless you buy a new one every 3 months.

    Much cooler than average here in the south on the gulf coast. High in the mid to upper 80's. Lows down to high 60's at night. Looking at the ended forecast not supposed to hit 90 till the last day of July which is really cool for July. Of course it's been raining everyday, not the normal...

    Found something you don't see everyday. In my grandmothers safety deposit box we were cleaning out she had some stock certificates from Dow Chemical. Both her dad and brother retired from there which I'm guessing is where it started/came from.

    Just glancing at the weather map of the US today. The heat wave moved on. Really below average at least in the south. Places still hot for this time of year, but at least not 115. Except in places that normally have that high of heat daily.

    Played it all night. Man for a $400 guitar I like it a LOT. The fret ends are even really good. I've never even picked up a squire. This one is cheaper than the classic vibe by a little. Weighed it, 6 pounds 10 ounces which the weight was the biggest factor, kind left out Les Pauls...

    It's an old joke but I've known a number of people that have turned their hobby into a business. In short order they've lost a lot of money and hate their hobby.

    Squire contempary on the right is new. Not bad. It was cheap and super super light. Weighing in at just over 6 pounds. Plus has a belly cut on the back which helps me. 12" radius on the fretboard is different from what I normally play. It came almost right in tune. I have some black locking...

    Yeah the south is having a LOT of thunderstorms pop up. Normally when it gets warm it does that but this is all the way across TX deep into the south. Saw Baton Rouge had hit 48" of rain already for 1/2 a year and normal is 80" or so for the year. Crazy, no hurricane rain either so far. The...

    Find a local club and go to a star party or whatever they want to call it. View through all sizes and styles of telescopes and get an idea of what you can see and if it's what you are after price wise. Most of them will have a dozen or more telescopes set up from really cheap ones they drag out...

    Humidity gets high enough here for extended periods it actually makes it somewhat cooler since it gets harder and harder to heat all that up. Normal summer temps 95 and humidity of 40-60% depending on the time of day. It's been 98% the last week almost all day and 99-100% at night which makes it...

    My truck is still chugging along with limited amount of new stuff. 2007.5 Z71 with 75,000 miles on it now. Used only on ranch roads and such. Not offroaded but the ranch roads get slick as greased pig shit when it rains. Seen several people not "stuck" just could't move from spinning the tires...

    Dad was in the same house as I was all day. Didn't speak one word to each other. About normal. Was in business in some ways together for 25 years and exchanged nothing more "Check this" or "it's okay". for most of that time.
