Good subjects.  I'm realizing that there really will be pretty much endless subject matter.  I initially thought of this as a podcast for other luthiers, but I see now that it really won't be going that direction.
I think it's pretty non-denominational. My neighbor is a Methodist and he still liked the show.

40 mph winds here today, kids!

I just went outside and ran around in it with my dog.

That's the cool thing about dogs. You can go outside and run around in the wind, throwing sticks around and laughing like a lunatic, and it looks perfectly normal. Healthy even!  8)

Once Art Bell left, George Snooron was handpicked. Hint: He is a right wing, conservative moron puppet.
George is a penguin with only vestiges of wings. (No offense WR250)  I wish he had a wing, left or right I don't care- something.  How about a right or left testicle? That would be better than a wing.  Wings are for birds and airplanes and as I've said here many boring times, you need both to fly. Otherwise you crash or fly in a circle.  If someone has only one wing of perception (sorry Castaneda) it usually means the other one is in their pants playing pocket pool. I've got two wings by the way, and a tail, to flip off single wingers as I haul ass past them.  Fucking penguins.

You guys and your stories...
I had a '59 Strat that I bought for $3000 in the late 90's and sold it after a few years for $3500.  I thought I was soooo smart.  Woo, I made 500 dollars.  Sheesh. 
They're worth 20k now.
OMG no no no!

Seraphim, speaking of lucid dreams. Something I wandered through in a past life; ever heard of Calea zacatecachichi? Also, oddly the extract of Flos aquamenezon (sp?) algea?

But Aldous, aniracetam makes the words flow like a river and feels like Adderall X 1,000 without the sky-is-falling crash.

As far as nootropics go, I'm a devout follower of this guy: http://theluciddreamsite.com/luciminal.html. His Noo Day supplement has changed my life. He's also devoted much of his adult life to developing a supplement that allows you to have lucid dreams. Apparently he's finally cracked it and will be selling it soon.

I also just ordered some armodafinil from a reputable supplier in India. (And with Bitcoins! I'm cool! I have a Bitcoin wallet! Somebody get me a bumper sticker or something!) Excited to try that stuff.

I've been trying to talk Bateman into doing a show on nootropics. Maybe someday.

OK, I'll stop with the brain-drug talk in the GNS thread now.

HOWEVER I couldn't help but notice that JBW's show tomorrow night is about increasing brain power. Wonder if he'll talk about it.
Nah Missy, I'm into it, for others. Myself, I'm a natural born tweeker who uses adderall to nap- and I've been trying to get back to the other side of the mirror for so long- I had to jettison the brain amplifiers- trying to get the crayon back in the sweet spot- so normalcy can be normal again. Defense!

Nootropics:

Nootropics (/noʊ.əˈtrɒpɨks/ noh-ə-trop-iks), also referred to as smart drugs, memory enhancers, neuro enhancers, cognitive enhancers, and intelligence enhancers, are drugs, supplements, nutraceuticals, and functional foods that purportedly improve mental functions such as cognition, memory, intelligence, motivation, attention, and concentration.[1][2] The word nootropic was coined in 1972 by the Romanian Dr. Corneliu E. Giurgea,[3][4] derived from the Greek words νους nous, or "mind," and τρέπειν trepein meaning "to bend/turn". Nootropics are thought to work by altering the availability of the brain's supply of neurochemicals (neurotransmitters, enzymes, and hormones), by improving the brain's oxygen supply, or by stimulating nerve growth.

Or we could just call it academic doping.  ;)
Watch out for nootropics kids. Take it from me, stimulating nerve growth is all fun and games until somebody pokes a consensus reality out. Fucking hydergine and piracetam, nearly left me smart for life.

In my teenage days, I wanted a Warlock guitar, desperately!  It looked so unique, aggressive & completely  bad ass. It would've been perfect for playing thrash/metal songs I "tried" to play back then.
I had to make due with my Ibenez RoadStar II, which I was lucky to have,  and still do.
I had the Gibson "Flying V".  That's right guitar bitches!

You know, I remember going to the Grand Canyon, probably like fifteen years ago, and we got charged a $25 "car fee" when we drove in (like how else are you going to get there, just stroll across the desert?).

Hee hee.  Loved this line.

When I was younger, a friend and I were walking along a beach at a resort.  There were two old gals, probably late sixties, asleep in their beach chairs.  On a table next to one of them sat one of those disposable cameras, the type you used to use on vacations and turn in to the developing lab for prints.

We took a quick look around, and seeing that the coast was clear, dropped trou and took several cock shots.  Then we gently replaced the camera on the table and sped off down the beach.

I just know that the highlight of that trip for those two old fossils was bitching about the hooligans that gave them the shock of their lives when the prints came back.  I'll bet you dollars to donuts that every friend, relative, and acquaintance heard that story.  We made that vacation for them.

In an analogous sense, I fulfill the experience for those of you here in the Civility Squad.  I'm a giver, really.  Without me and my antics to bitch about, your satisfaction with posting on bellgab would be reduced by at least half, perhaps more.  I'm very sure this is true about McPhallus, who seemed crushed when our discussion petered out.  Not quite as certain about you, WotR, but I have my eye on you.
Well then, I love you.
But I'm drinking wine right now.

personally ill never have anything to do with a homeowners ass'n again .
i had a condo once, and of all things the dishwasher caught fire. water and smoke damage everywhere. we informed the HOA of the damage to which they responded " we are not responsible for interior walls or ceilings. only from the siding out." . so our homeowners insurance pays the bill less the deductible. all is fine and dandy right? not according to said HOA. about 2 months later,  they said we needed to get rid of our cat, as the interior walls might be damaged and they would have to fix them. i asked "are you responsible for the interior walls?" ; they said "yes". to which i replied "ill be sure to inform my insurance of your change of heart on the interior walls should you pursue the 'loose the cat' thing". they had no response, and "forgot" about the cat at that point.
If you can't leak your lizard out front, I would never live in the place.
